    Introducing my friend to Factorio. His solo attempt to automate Red Science.

    Thinking of making a YouTube series named "No BS" where I go over a lot of aspects of the game (only a single aspect each episode). Where I go in depth, without any BS like "Remember to subscribe" and stuff. Anybody interested in that?

    Just want to know if there is any sort of interest in those type of videos.

    You have no idea how little planning it takes to make something like this.

    Incredibly low UPS on dedicated server, but game says 60/60

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 12:34 AM PDT

    My friend and I have a world we've been playing on for close to 500 hours (some of that is AFK time, but a lot of it is actual play time). We've reached space in Space Exploration, but just barely. Our world isn't anywhere close to what I'd call "crazy" in comparison to what I've seen online.

    Unfortunately, the world has become unplayably slow on my dedicated server. I actually just upgraded server hardware, from an old Dell PowerEdge to a somewhat newer Fujitsu rack server. Specs are 2x Xeon 2.6 GHz processors, 32 logical cores total. 128 GB RAM (1600 MHz DDR3 server memory, I know it's a bit slow). When we run the map on the server, the game feels like it's running at about 25 UPS. Trains take *forever* to accelerate, and you can see each individual sprite frame as they rotate around curves. The latency is super low: 4 ticks, and the game actually says "60/60" for FPS/UPS.

    If I save the map and run it in singleplayer on my gaming rig (5 GHz i7-8086K, 2070 Super, 16 GB DDR4), it usually says around 54/54, and feels *incredibly* fluid and smooth compared to the server.

    Here's a video of singleplayer (video is 30fps, but you can clearly see the train is at nearly full acceleration at 50+ UPS): https://streamable.com/dldxy

    And here's a video of the server: https://streamable.com/4y01i . It looks like it's being played back in slow motion, but that's realtime.

    Why is the dedicated server so much worse (yet it shows 60?)? Is there a way to tell what part of our world is causing the most UPS drop? The only large number in the timing debug was "Entity" at around 9ms (rest were all below 1), but 9ms shouldn't cause a UPS drop given that anything under 16.67 is still 60 UPS.

    Everything is a citygrid 480hours map in.

    Posted: 28 Mar 2020 05:32 PM PDT

    Everything is a citygrid 480hours map in.

    Map made by: Cablegunmaster, Lifeblind, Djurres, Zapper

    We went for a full citygrid 1k Server this is 510 hours in,Sometimes just to find a location on the map, I have to scratch my head and wonder where it is again. Like ask me where blue circuits is and its somewhere not even on this screenshot.Currently there are 305 trains running on this map and around 250-280 trains are 1-2's except for iron the big iron ore and copper trains.

    Why build a citygrid?

    Well we saw a youtuber Nilaus make a gigantic citygrid and we wanted to see if we could make something similar. Thats where the whole idea started. We already had plenty of mainbusses made before and thought why stick to 1 idea?From this post: https://forums.factorio.com/viewtopic.php?t=37024

    Would I use a citygrid again?

    Hell yeah! but I would change the trains to be a bit longer and not smelt onsite anymore as we did on this map. One big smelter feels better, to move the raw materials. I feel it is just a waste of train space to move ore to all different locations. and maybe build bigger blocks instead of our limiting small ones. Grids should not be restricted to one size but for the eye its appealing. The whole idea was to make grids paste able , so you could have small containers which you could rebuild by bots.

    Which mods do you guys use?

    Mostly quality of life mods. this game started in 0.17

    medium overview of our base.

    Full base overview

    ​

    8 lanes of raw science I love bottles of science on a big lane. (we had a small issue with rocket fuel due to mod missing after upgrades)

    8 lanes and this is the top part of our science.

    We used 2-8 trains to load the divider central of ore. and buffered the ore because the 2-8 trains drive a gigantic distance, and 1-2 trains can be loaded by a seperate botnetwork to ensure it would go smoothly.

    Any questions? Or any locations you want to see on the map, let me know.I just picked a few highlights of the map, which I think are weird or extraordinary.

    Upss .... I was too fast

    Do you guys always make a new save when saving? (For example: Magabase 1kspm No.87)

    First time trying to create a beacon-ed smelting design. Not bad so far?

    Can`t play online (error 10038)

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 02:51 AM PDT

    Yesterday I tried playing Factorio with my brother but when he tried to connect to any server he got "error 10038 An operation was attempted on something that is not a socket". I`ve done some googling, but none of the suggested fixes worked. What I already tried:

    1. Turning off all parental control and firewalls
    2. netsh Winsock reset (lost a link)
    3. Playing through Hamachi (link)

    The only reddit post that asked the same question seems to be this one, but the only fix that was suggested there seems to be quite tedious and not too helpful. What is the next thing I should try?

    Amarog's Smart Trains (AST)

    Posted: 29 Mar 2020 06:21 AM PDT

    Hey all,

    first time poster. I saw a lot of people asking for a good train system in vanilla. Well, I've been experimenting a bit with it taking several ideas and combining them all.This is what I came up with.

    It basically uses outposts for each resource (Being ore, finished products or fluids...) and requester stations.

    Requester stations:- You can tell how many trains are allowed maximum (Standard 2)- You do have to set the chests size it can take in. (Depends on how you build your chest setup)

    Outposts:- Outposts are all the same. You just decide how much trains will be using that outpost (Standard 2) but I can add as many as I want. Depends on the throughput it has.- You have to add train ID's to the combinators to reserve a specific lane in the stacker, otherwise they will not enter. This allows me to track all the trains.

    And a lot of more things... Feel free to ask. (I'm still compiling a blueprint book with all the stations pre build).

    Shout out to Mojo for the Build it all, I've adopted that system and adjusted it for my use.Shout out to 2 other guy's of which I used some Idea's, I just forgot their names... Sorry! I've been building a long time on this and their Idea's where presented to me like months ago!
