    Honestly I admire the sheer balls of the mod to allow the player to irrevocably deadlock themselves at the eleventh hour is they FUBAR the cube reconstruction. I mean you can obviously have backup saves (and given the nature of the game and what it's asking you to do you'd be silly not to drop a manual one before shattering it) but the fact it's at all possible creates the biggest "oh shit" moment I think a Factorio mod can manage.

      Having played this mod and gotten burned out halfway through, almost everything good about it comes down to this premise, and everything bad comes from not committing to it hard enough. Adds a lot of its own necessary fiddliness but doesn't remove enough of vanilla's, and I found myself wishing it'd gone in a more 'shapez-esque' low-friction direction for its planning and building.

    All the people here who bought this wireless tungsten cube to admire its surreal heft have precisely the wrong mindset. I, in my exalted wisdom and unbridled ambition, bought this cube to become fully accustomed to the intensity of its density, to make its weight bearable and in fact normal to me, so that all the world around me may fade into a fluffy arena of gravitational inconsequence. And it has worked, to profound success. I have carried the tungsten with me, have grown attached to the downward pull of its small form, its desire to be one with the floor. This force has become so normal to me that lifting any other object now feels like lifting cotton candy, or a fluffy pillow. Big burly manly men who pump iron now seem to me as little children who raise mere aluminum.
    I can hardly remember the days before I became a man of tungsten. How distant those days seem now, how burdened by the apparent heaviness of everyday objects. I laugh at the philistines who still operate in a world devoid of tungsten, their shoulders thin and unempowered by the experience of bearing tungsten. Ha, what fools, blissful in their ignorance, anesthetized by their lack of meaningful struggle, devoid of passion.
    Nietzsche once said that a man who has a why can bear almost any how. But a man who has a tungsten cube can bear any object less dense, and all this talk of why and how becomes unnecessary.
    Schopenhauer once said that every man takes the limits of his own field of vision for the limits of the world. Tungsten expands the limits of a man’s field of vision by showing him an example of increased density, in comparison to which the everyday objects to which he was formerly accustomed gain a light and airy quality. Who can lament the tragedy of life, when surrounded by such lightweight objects? Who can cry in a world of styrofoam and cushions?
    Have you yet understood? This is no ordinary metal. In this metal is the alchemical potential to transform your world, by transforming your expectations. Those who have not yet held the cube in their hands and mouths will not understand, for they still live in a world of normal density, like Plato’s cave dwellers. Those who have opened their mind to the density of tungsten will shift their expectations of weight and density accordingly.
    To give this cube a rating of anything less than five stars would be to condemn life itself. Who am I, as a mere mortal, to judge the most compact of all affordable materials? No. I say gratefully to whichever grand being may have created this universe: good job on the tungsten. It sure is dense.
    I sit here with my tungsten cube, transcendent above death itself. For insofar as this tungsten cube will last forever, I am in the presence of immortality.

    The whole zigurrat ordeal is one of the most clever subversions of expectation I've seen in a while. The whole game you've been using this ONE Cube™ as the bedrock your entire base is built on, so what will you have to do with it to overcome the final hurdle? Why, SHATTER it into a million pieces, then painstakingly puzzle it back together before your entire infrastructure comes crumbling down with it, all in the name of progress.

    You didn't even need circuits for the final smashed cube challenge. Just use a crapton of splitters to split the output of 256 smashed cube pieces 6 times each into 64 separate machines which each use exactly 4 dust. Or if you want a more sane solution, do it with 4 splits each to put 16 dust in front of each individual machine. That way there is no possibility of extras since all the machines pull from separate belts.

    This is kind of like an old mainframe, you have a single resource that everybody wants and need to decide how everything shares it. Just a bit simpler cause the resource isn't essentially managing itself.
    This is becoming more and more like an opperating system as it goes on.
    Touching a machine with the cube to get it started then moving it immediately while the machine unloads is kind of like DMA if we're continuing with the OS comparisons.

    1:06:13 If I understand correctly, there's no point in resetting the sequence. When combination N succeeds, combination N+1 is as likely to be the new correct combination as 1 is. You may as well just try all 21 combinations in a cycle regardless of whether any particular one succeeds or not.

    • @kraba1081
      @kraba1081 26 дней назад +5

      +1, I came to the same conclusion independently while watching the video, it does seem a bit overengineerded. For the same reason, the same clock and memory can be used for both assembly machines, no need to duplicate per machine. Resetting the sequence would only help if the earlier recipes were more likely than later ones. You don't even need to store the values in memory cells technically, simply number n,m in [0,5] for the six ingredients, then loop through a counter from 0 to 35 for the 6x6 combinations, use modular arithmetic to extract row and column, skip over entries where n>m, and you get the triangle pair numbers (think of it as a 6x6 matrix, you want to exclude mirrored pairs you have already done, leading to a triangle shape), and cuz of strict >, you get the duplicate signals in a convenient split up way for later processing (from the diagonal). Alternatively you could make a nested for loop with the same ">" comparison logic. Guess I did my own over-engineering?

    • @DoshDoshington
      @DoshDoshington  26 дней назад +19

      It's a random sequence, there's no appreciable difference between resetting on the correct combination and resetting at 21. Both are equally likely to encounter the correct sequence, so ultimately it's up to preference, and to me resetting on correct is more photogenic.

    • @Arnavion
      @Arnavion 26 дней назад +6

      The only difference I can think of (other than the obvious one of needing more circuitry to introspect whether the output is success or failure, of course) is that resetting on a correct combination will lead to a skewed distribution because earlier combinations will run more often than later ones, so inputs for earlier combinations will be consumed more than those for later ones. But yes it might not be an appreciable difference vs looking photogenic :)
