    Compact late game 3 blue belt per wagon loader and unloader, no backlog and all belts are completely full (needs max inserter capacity researched).

    Hi I'm fairly new to this group but I have a question. My friend and me are playing this modpack and so far we really enjoy it. We managed to go to nauvis orbit and start working there but we have a huge problem automating the cargo rocket. We're both not good with combinators so I'm looking for some hints or tips how to automate the deliveries to orbit. Or later from other planets to nauvis or whatever. So does anyone have a guide or blueprint to automate that?

    Tileable 5 full blue belts from each wagon

    Silly unloading

    After seeing the previous unloading post, I wanted to see how far I could push it. The intermediary boxes a limited to a single stack, but otherwise nothing hidden is going on.

    If compressed, this gives you slightly more than 5 fully compressed blue belts per wagon. This is more than 2/3 of the speed that the 12 stack inserters can offload the train, so it starts putting fairly tight constraints on station utilization. If that becomes a problem, I guess you could add a layer of buffer chests in between, but that just adds to the silliness. I'm pretty sure it would be for everyone to just have longer trains instead.

    Factorio Demo on Steam won't work. It seems only a few of the sprites are loading. Please help.

    Weird particle flickering on screen.

    Posted: 03 May 2021 07:36 AM PDT

    Hi, I recently downloaded the demo of Factorio on Steam as I heard so many good things about it and wanted to try it out. However I have encountered this weird issue (see video below), so was just wondering if anybody else has and has found a fix for it. I tried tweaking all the settings but to no avail.

    PC Specs:
    Ryzen 5 3600
    RX 5700 XT
    16GB RAM
    500GB Samsung SSD
    Windows 10

    Circuit Network - Quick Wiring

    Posted: 02 May 2021 07:54 PM PDT

    Hey all, I just had a simple question I haven't been able to find the answer to on Reddit or Factorio's official site.

    Is there a way to quickly connect many entities to a circuit network at once, or do I have to go through and click/connect each entity manually? That's all, thanks in advance.

    New player curious.

    Posted: 02 May 2021 01:03 PM PDT

    I've sunk about 10 hours into this game now and I love it. It's so therapeutic to build and automate something and watch it all work. But I've been thinking about the railway systems in the game and how to utilize them. I was just curious what to use the trains for right now. What do I gain out of making a railway system efficiency wise? Thanks.

    beacons or no beacons, the UPS are the question.

    Posted: 02 May 2021 02:06 PM PDT

    Hello my dear engineers, you see I have a question: my potato is already reaching the point where it gets slow when playing on my current base (about 250 science packages per minute) and I wanted to know how much I see often how they surround the machines with beacons to solve that:

    ​

    -Are machines surrounded by beacons really better in terms of UPS?

    -How bad are the complicated balancer-style loops?

    -How much do robots affect performance? (I usually have about 3,000 assets each time)

    ​

    And if someone could, to simplify things: could someone assign values to the machines of how bad they are? maybe something in format ...

    ​

    -basic belt: 1

    -assembly machine: 5

    -motobomba: 120000

    ​

    thanks in advance if someone took pity on my potato.
