    Hello everyone! Here's the link to the 70-part step-by-step series:

    Nathan, I like this so much more than the typical, short, time lapse summaries of this kind of series. Having watched each of the 70 series episodes, I still find this fun to watch. Thanks for everything you do.

    It was really fun to watch this Nathan. I've got 16,000 of playtime according to Steam. My biggest map runs 24 hours a day and still produces & consumes only 4ksp/m. It can go a week at a time without maintenance, but its a hige job bringing enough resources online when something starts to run low. I run vanilla, no mods. I'm nowhere near as good a designer as you but its fascinating how you can get there in different ways. I did mine primarily with trains and separated botzones. There are 1200 trains, 5000 stations and millions of bots. Even with a Factorio max optimized PC I can only get 10 or 11 FPS.... There is just too much stuff, and I like Nuclear rather than Solar as I like the complexity (and consuming all the resources on the map, haha). Train congestion is no longer an issue as I have distributed production of different products and resources all around the map. I didn't do a grid system, so my map looks very organic in comparison, and I mostly go around the lakes rather than fill them. When the TL feature came out awhile ago it took me months to change from disabling stations to TL instead. I don't use spiders to build expansions, but robots. I lay down a construction station. Then the train comes in with the parts and builds a receiver for all the parts and finished products to come in automatically. Additional robots keep getting brought online anytime there are less than 100 idle in the zone. Everything gets built automatically, (mostly) and then the trains start coming automatically. My world is enormous and hard to play... I need to ride trains and spiders everywhere with that low FPS, and work mostly in map mode. Ill lay down a few BPs in the morning to expand and rhen leave it. Mine is so inefficient compared to yours and my reciever stations are filled with vast quantities of goods gathering dust... But its fully automated and Ive been amazed at what ive been able to accomplish with the free time im blessed with and much more limited programming and design skills compared to you and some of the other guys out there. Sure love this game... I play it more than I work. And sleep... Haha... All the best

      Factorio is coded for full belts if you don't have full belts it tanks your fps very basically every slot on the belt empty is like 0.01% less performance so blue belts will fuck up your fps

    I love how one of the mega modules just blends into the sea of solar xD
    Also... genuinely, this base reminds me of die shots from CPUs. The cores are actually TINY in comparison to the cache. The solar is a kind of cache, for power, and the mega modules are your cores :P
    Anyway, this is amazing! thanks for editing this together :D

  • @charliew.1122
    @charliew.1122 Год назад +7

    Do you think that incorporating most things into a single "mega blueprint" helped with your congestion? 5k SPM is very impressive on your train system and I assume that's down to your "mega blueprint". Did you have many issues with congestion?

  • @matsv201
    @matsv201 Год назад +4

    My read of it. Smelting takes load of space. Always do it in the mines. That saves loads of space. And. Well. Stack size is larger. If you have 10 waggons of ore. That is 5 wagons of steal, iron, bricka, 1 wagon of steal or wall or 1.4 wagons of green

    I really like this mega base runs, but I have no idea how any of that works in detail. Like, I assume you need a ton of clogs, plates and electronics (the green stuff) to paste only one of those modules, but were do you keep the stock for that and how many of each do you produce and store somewhere just to build more stuff?
