This video made me fear circuits when I just began Factorio, due to its length. After a few days of gameplay, I am back and truly believe that you really made a miracle resuming circuit logic in just one hour, while keeping it... Logical.
Amazing video.
@@theclassicpro8797 just to see AFAIK
@@theclassicpro8797 Can basically do anything with combinators that you can think of. Can use them to measure and report stuff, can use them to filter stuff, control stuff, etc. etc.
After a few days of gameplay?
I am now at 500 hours and haven't touched circuits yet xD
This reminds me of redstone in Minecraft. "Ya I wired a door to a switch! What else can I do with this?" Meanwhile, people are building entire CPUs in redstone.
I suffer from having an irrational fear of using the circuit network. This video is a good therapy.
This is insane, they should use factorio at Schools.
I'm actually meeting with my old business school (operations) professor. I think we're going to integrate it into next semester's curriculum
I think it would be great. Factorio is more like a programming language than a game. If I were at school and I had to play the game to make my homework I would be happy.
*Imagine if they used factorio at schools* 🤔
Teacher: alright everyone, show me your factories from last nights homework!!!
Also teacher: JIMMY YOU ARENT MAKING 20 RED SCIENCE A SEDOND YET

I got Factorio before it was on steam, I have watched hundreds of factorio videos and tutorials on every part of the game. The first video of yours I watched was your absolute basics of trains. Without a doubt yours are THE best tutorial videos I have ever seen on any subject.Please do MORE tutorials for Factorio.
Im glad you like what i’ve done so far, thanks! Id certainly like to do more tutorials but they take an awful lot of work so it’ll want to be a good topic. I plan to do a “first steps for absolute beginners” (i.e., how to actually play the game) to coincide with 1.0, but any ideas are welcome in the meantime
This video deserves about 100x the current number of views, well done!
I jsut started playing satisfactory and this vide owas amazing. I am software programmer and loved your explanation of binary bitwise operators. Anyone will be able to understand that. Excelente job!
Satisfactory? But this is for factorio right?
This game (as of 2023) has nice detailed tutorials on the very basic functions and almost nothing about the circuit network.
I really hope they add it some day in the future. For now, we're stuck with hour-long fan videos.
Thank you.
That moment when you're tired of playing games with not much depth and then Factorio comes along with this stuff. I'm daunted but eager to learn like a kid :)
Awesome video, but my IQ topped when learning how to do trains. God this game is complex and that makes it so good and entertaining.
You might want to use a larger UI when doing these tutorials, it makes reading the text easier.
watching in 480p, the UI is clearly readable.
@@90hijacked depends what you are watching on. I have a hard time watching anyone’s Factorio videos on a phone. On my tv it’s no problem. It’s just a very info dense game
Reddit brought me here. I haven't made it all the way through yet but the quality is fantastic and you obviously have a great grasp of the material. Subbed. Will watch you grow.
Soelless Gaming love your content
My only disappointment with this video is that I didn't find it when looking for a circuit network tutorial months ago when I needed the help. Thanks, RUclips.
Best Factorio Circuit Tutorial out of the last 10 I have watched so far. Super comprehensive, and although one can fast forward some parts, I still had to re-watch many parts to truly understand the game's conventions.
This is incredible. Very thorough and concise overview of each and every concept. I don't have a single criticism. Thank you so much for putting this together, it helped me a lot
unbelievably well produced and understandable video
just relearned how to use binary and boy was this way better explained in a factorio video than back in school
It is a testament to the quality of these explanations that I learned more about how remainders work from this video than 12 years of public schooling
Lmao i'm ashamed on how many times I had to watch the SR-latch through to undersand what it does. Your channel is pure gold. even though i'm beginner to the circuit networks, it's insanely fascinating topic and i want to become good at it.
Thanks for making quality content. It is much appreciated.
Best circuit tutorial I ever saw. Also, love the "smart train" tutorial video!
This is an amazing tutorial! thanks so much for uploading
Very detailed. Fantastic work MB! 👏
this is propably the most explanatory video i've seen.
I really appreciate the way you explain things- clear, concise and well ordered. This is an excellent tutorial.
I always hated bitwise operators, but I liked how it was explained. Good job on that.
Thank you for taking the time to do this, it's much appreciated. I learnt I have much to understand :(
Excellent tutorial. Thanks for posting this.
This is one of the best tutorial i've found! Thank you for putting efforts and time to making this. It does helps me and very likely other people too
Thanks, big help understanding the game mechanics
Best Circuit Network Tutorial i've ever seen. And you understand things!
My man, this is incredibly well put together, I'm very impressed with the organization and preparation. I consider myself pretty savvy with circuits already but I like to check around and see what kind of resources are available to newer players, for a long time when I looked I always felt like the available content fell short of what I thought it could/should be, but this is just perfect in every way. I skipped to the "visual display" example and I just love how you progressively stepped through the improvements, just such a perfect demonstration of how circuit design goes in this game, get something working and over time realize, "yeah it can definitely be cooler."
Your tutorials are absolutely amazing. Thanks man
Great methodical explanation of circuit network design. Im currently using alot of theses designs in my bases.
This is by far the most in depth explanation I've seen of factorio tutorial, I've just started playing the game and got fed up too much by it's complexity, you sir are my hero for explaining these things to complete beginner as mine so thank you 🙏🙂, I also like the calm and clear tone of your voice, very helpful for learning
You have done an excellent job with this. Well done and thank you.
That was extremely helpful. Clear, thorough. At some moments i've had to rewatch several times due to my lack of game mechanics knowledge, especially the latch thing. You're great at tutorials.
You definitely deserves much more likes. The oil cracking is GENIUS!! Great Video!
That is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much! :)
Amazing work !
I have a small note on the safe crossing at the end. You can actually do it with only connecting one of the rail signals. This is because turning a rail signal off using circuits will stop it from outputting any signals, even though it's technically in the "red" state. So if you instead use a condition on the gate of open when red == 0 (don't forget to have the yellow state of the rail signal also output red) then you won't have the feedback loop.
Another neat trick with the gates is the fact that one gate is usually connected to wall on both sides. Which means you can connect wires to the 2 different sides, and set circuit conditions for both. Now I honestly don't remember off of the top of my head whether it performs and AND or an OR operation between the two, but if I'd have to guess I think it's AND. So when both the conditions are met, then the gate will open.
In any case, this tutorial is absolutely fantastic, and I've added it to our faq over at the factorio discord.
Nice!
Haven't finished the video, but it seems that it is the one I was looking for.
8 minutes in and this review has helped me more than so many professional videos and factorio discord help.
Great video and the first one that explain the whole circuit network in a simple and easy to understand way. Phenomenal job
SUPER INFORMATIVE VIDEO! Sir you're doing god's work.
Excellent video and excellent use of in game visuals for immersive factorio tutorials.
God damn, my head hurts. Great video!
Great video!! I love the time stamps
This tutorial is INSANELY helpful. you should be very proud of yourself. These are not easy things to explain but you did an amazing job.
Great video, thanks for the tutorial!
I love these videos, you are a great teacher. Also your voice is very soothing to listen to.
This is a fantastic video! Thank you very much for this.
I really appreciate your tutorials! I’m new to Factorio, learned much from your vids!
Safe train in a few minutes. This is a great video! Thank you!
I love your videos. They do a great job of explaining the fundamentals without giving away the game. You eliminate my frustration while retaining the joy of my own exploration in the game. Thank you!
fuck all that... I dont wanna have to read countless tutorials to LEARN how to play... this is horse shit. Give me practical examples of how to use the parts, and leave me to my own creativity.
Amazing tutorial like no other I have come across, and I have seen many by now trying to figure out how to set up my Nuclear Reactor setup with Steam tank to work using steam tank as sort of battery storage. Once I learned about SR latch, I went back and set it all up on my own before even seeing solar/battery example at the end - just goes to show how good this tutorial is. Thank you sir!
Great Tutorial 1 of the best iv seen ::)
very high quality content, thank you
Clear and thorough explanation. Wish I could have seen this vid about 6 months ago. I think it would have given me better insight for my automation. My safe rail is simpler though as I use only one train signal to trigger it. Set the yellow to red on the train signal and use color red = 0 for open gate instead of green > 0.
Thank you for make this video! You explain very well :)
Thank you for your work. Great video. Very useful content to get started with the circuit network.
Only 1:16 into the video and I can tell I'm probably going to be subscribing. Love the brake down and step by step instructions.
The games right up there with the best of them in terms of how complex it is, absolutely love your approach and I hope your other tutorials are just as good 👍
Fantastic video, many thanks. After 1500 hours in factorio maybe i need to try this. Been scared up till now
I`ve never had a male informatics teacher. Plus with such a stereotypical voice, tone and humor. Now I do.
You have a very clear descriptive language.Congratulations.
Amazing video, holy shit! You deserve a ton more views & subs, man. :D
Ty so much, bruh!! Finally understood circuits' logic
So, this is essentially signal feedback circuits and loops. Logic intensity, I'm feeling a little "loopy" myself. Job well done, mate!
Brilliant, just brilliant. thanks !!
31:17 - I'd like an entire video on the speaker, please. :) (If/when you have the time for such...)
(edit: great content, by the way! I'm here for the speaker content, but have been watching the rest (which is all review for me), and it's very nicely presented. You've created a great tutorial resource!)
Very thorough! You deserve more subs! I'd love to see a similar tutorial for logistics.
the name of the game is called logistics you need to be more specific, do you mean trains or just tips on making an efficient factory?
Wow... thank you for showing me just how much functionality I've been missing from my factory.
now i understand it after many years thank you
35:20 I utilize a "belt scanner" like this to pause the infeed of a material into a rotary feed belt so that more material can be loaded from production machines. I generally use this in a uranium processing facility, allowing me to cycle the 235 across my enrichment machines, while still allowing the same belt system to accept new material from nearby raw ore refining machines.
Thanks for such a well made tutorial.
you can be teacher you have the gift
among all the videos I watched yours is the best explaining the logic behind
nice and complete Tutorial
Very nice, thanks!
amazing usefull guide, ty very much!
I pet this guy is a professional teacher, a good one too.
As someone who at one point majored in Electrical Engineering, the explanation for the SR latch with accompanying visuals was a better explanation for the functioning of an SR latch than I ever received in college. This should be the intro video for courses on Logic Gates, because what Electrical Engineering wouldn't immediately appreciate Factorio?
Thank you so goddamn much dude
Excellent video mate! clearly alot of time went into this and i am having trouble grasping these concepts, but i want to be a better Factorio player.
i love this video and i love you.
Just have to say, this is by far the best video i ever seen in ciruits! Funny enough, half of this stuff is used in real life!
Got a sub, between this and oil video! I did learn a little bit but more new players should be seeing these!
I know video is already over 18 months old, but one tweak for quality. Audio levels between clips jumped around, nothing major that needed headphone trigger warnings but there was a change and as someone who is HOH i had to keep readjusting my audio so i could hear/not go deaf :D
You are one smart nerd! Damn man, these light displays
Very complex stuff. Subscriber #155 👍
Great video
I love Factorio , but you just made it more educational game (with electric circuit degree haha! ). I can tell you; I have huge problems with "Oil field" and "power issues." I hope to learn more about circuits with your video. Currently learning bots and blueprints in my 1st week.
这正是我需要的，谢谢！
I been playing around with the train gate and I thought you might have wanted to add sound alert to your door "this is simple for anyone to use". Just hook a copper wire from your gate to your speaker where you have gate color set (by default it is "Red" "Green" and "Yellow") so just set your speaker to the color, where *location* you wish the alarm to go off, I use Red color for alarm (which is signal value). If you want to get fancy you can add the "Alert Settings" underneath the signal value to any color you would like. All this does is flash a color during that alarm. next to your bottom build bar. Adding rail chain signals is a lot easier than building gates :D
what a lifesaver
1 hour of basic tutorial? Hell yeah
great vid,i came from reddit small note 1080 might have made some stuff easier to follow on the monitor
thank you!
this literally feels like programming at this point
not that i had much more luck with it in school
It literally is programming. Just using a low level building block, rather than lines of code like you’d usually use.
You know, I think they should seriously employ you for these tutorials... It's amazing. Did you figure all this on your own? Do you work on the game?
I'm planning to make a universal melter, which melts whatever is currently needed. Should be totally possible now that I saw ur video. Beforehand it was always stuck by copper plates. :D
Watched it start to finish. I have delusions of grandure now, but at least I understand how to do a simple on/off circuit...
Jeez I just wanted to do something on Factorio, and after watching this hour-long video, I am left doubting my life
I always used the accumulator to turn a water pump on and off for my steam engines. It could still cycle a bit but not as fast as just hooking up directly. Also uses way less wire because you are only cycling one thing on and off. The set-reset station is a good idea tho! Also, it makes me feel smart when I came up with stuff by myself, like the pumps controlling the oil cracking!
And then I see that you found a better way to do it haha. I had mine set up with a dozen refineries, and just went off of values. If my petrol dropped below 25% full, the light oil to petrol turned on. Same with heavy to light. I do like the idea of only running if you have less light than heavy tho. Would it still be possible for one to fill up one of them and cause a backup that way? Theoretically you could run out of heavy oil
