    There is only one game where I did 100% (full vanilla), as a player that usually sums up all achievement pop-ups with a "Huh, nice"

    Just started factorio and here's my first factory! What do you guys think :D

    I took u/Quazarz_'s blueprint and made it into a long, looped video so that it can be made into a wallpaper :)

    I have started my Lazy bastard achievement and I thought this starter base looks cool so I decided to share it.

    LTN Request threshold automation

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 06:53 AM PDT

    I like to do my thinking up front designing stuff, and then drunkenly drop blueprints with abandon. Set and forget is the rule of the day.

    So here's a simple toy (that others can likely optimize or improve upon) that automatically sets request thresholds for an LTN request station. 1. Set minimum train length 2. Set "L" to the number of locomotives in that minimum train. - first two steps can be captured in the blueprint. 3. Drop a full stack of whatever you want delivered into the wooden chest. You could also just include the stack count in a constant combinator, but then you have to remember stack sizes and we did start this with "drunkenly", right?

    Looking for some people to play with

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 01:20 AM PDT

    Hello fellow engineers!

    I haven't played Factorio in a year, and most of my friends aren't interested in the game. So i'm turning myself towards you guys: I'd like to have a play with 5-6 people during Next week; i have around 50hours into the game, so i'm far from a pro but eh, gotta make that factory grow.

    I live in France, so ppl around that time zone are appreciated. If you're interested, i setup a small discord for it: https://discord.gg/Ukb42fQ

    Join and let's talk about details there.

    If my post is an issue, just tell me, i'll remove it.

    Have a nice day everyone, may the fate be favorable.

    How do you plan?

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 05:39 AM PDT

    I'm quite new to the game, despite having it for a while, and I'm wondering how do other people play. In particular, how do you plan your designs? I'm trying to build purple science and using factorio calculator to know what I need and in which quantity for each of them, but I would like to know how do you redditors move from here to real setup. I'm thinking of using pencil and paper to sketch up.

    Any suggestions?

    Factorio "Industrial" Keycap set

    Factorio "Industrial" Keycap set

    I don't know if anyone is interested in this stuff, but I thought it was cool if you like factorio and keycaps. Its not as cool as 3d printing your own, but its still neat in my book.

    First time bus questions (Modded Turret mini-setup)

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 08:08 AM PDT

    So it's my second proper playthough, this time with a bunch of mods. Have Bob's installed for the filter modifications. On the bottom, a battery setup, right above, a spiked wall factory from AAI. I was trying to set up a lightning, flamethrower, and laser turret setup to start expanding my walls before switching off peaceful.

    This setup looked mildly reminiscent of spaghetti from what I've seen people call it, so I'd like a bit of feedback. There's a bit of steel throughput problems but that's mostly because I'm not getting enough iron ore in at the moment, I'm working on solving that with this expansion.

    LTN - Stations have stopped/turned off. Help

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 07:11 AM PDT

    Where do I go from here?

    Posted: 24 Oct 2020 06:46 AM PDT

    I tried getting into this game several times, every time I ended up not liking my base layout shortly after getting my smelting columns setup. This is the first time I got what I feal is a good defensible starting position with potential for at least a good first base. I just got all my defenses, mining, smelting, and power setup.

    What should I do now, this is the part of the game I always seem to get discouraged and quit on even though it really is just the start of the actual game. I know I don't have enough raw materials for a main bus but should I setup something like a mini bus using the iron, copper, and stone I have? Should I start lines of manufactured stuff too and if so what should they be?

    Does steam pressure drop over pipe distance?

    Posted: 23 Oct 2020 05:43 PM PDT

    Does steam pressure drop over pipe distance?

    Hi folks. I'm confused about this set up:

    https://preview.redd.it/68bb0nkbvxu51.png?width=754&format=png&auto=webp&s=3ef9df54a1f2ab9060b61b494ff79503f8189f7a

    My question is, why are the left most turbines not operating? I seem to have enough water pumps and reactors for the heat pumps; they're all operating at above 500 degrees. My only theory is that steam pressure might have dropped by the time the steam gets to the far turbines. Is that a thing?

    Thoughts? At the moment, my base is underpowered, so there's certainly no shortage of demand!

    Can you use drawing tablets to play factorio?

    Posted: 23 Oct 2020 07:15 PM PDT

    I have a wacom intuos Pro M and using mouse is hurting my hand quite a bit, I havent tried it yet, but I just want to see if anyone else is doing it and is there any special inputs that you can only do with tablets?(which I assume there isn't) and do I need to remap some of my buttons on my boar/pen so I will need to use the keyboard less too?

    Space Exploration - Launch Trigger to Nauvis Orbit

    Posted: 23 Oct 2020 08:14 PM PDT

    How do you set up your automatic rocket deliveries from Nauvis to Nauvis orbit?

    Right now, I have the rocket automatically loaded, but not automatically launched.

    In orbit, I have a bunch of constant combinators putting out a signal of what things I want to have up there, then I subtract what is actually there by connecting a roboport to an arithmetic combinator and multiplying by negative one. Then this input is sent via transmitter to the rocket area on nauvis where it is fed into a requester warehouse. I also have the rocket silo itself wired into an arithmetic combinator multiplying everything by negative one, so as stuff is loaded into the silo, the requests in the warehouse go down.

    It's not perfect, sometimes a little bit of extra stuff gets loaded into the silo, but that's not such a big deal.

    The big deal is that I don't know when to launch the rocket. For now, I manually launch it every once in a while, but that is not a good system.

    I was thinking about somehow setting it up so that when the supply of anything in space goes to zero, and that item is fully loaded in the rocket, and the landing pad is empty, that should trigger a launch. Checking if the landing pad is empty is pretty easy, but I don't know how to check if the supply of anything is zero, or if the rocket has at least as much as requested without setting up a few combinators for each item being requested and I have over 40 different items being requested.

    Any thoughts or advice?

    Is there a mod to Limit or Remove the "Placed in" section on Equipment Items?

    Posted: 23 Oct 2020 08:12 PM PDT

    So I have a "few" mods enabled and the list of vehicles/suits that equipment can be placed into far exceeds the screen. Due to this I cannot see the actual Stats of said equipment. I am asking if there is some mod that either reorganizes so the stats are above the placed in section or removes that section entirely from the UI.
