Factorio

I've completed my Vulcanus "mega"base (so just 140spm of red, green, blue, purple, and yellow science), and got Gleba to a state I was happy with. I was consistently making agriculture science and the materials to launch a rocket out of it, and had a logistics system in place to expand the base with bots. I even designed a faster, more fuel-efficient space platform specifically to transfer the agriculture science to Nauvis.

Since walls apparently don't work I had the weird idea of defending my base with artillery, because I haven't unlocked any other fancy military stuff yet.

I then went to Fulgora and am currently trying to figure out its entire system. Unfortunately the islands are too far apart for the big electric poles to reach, even with rare quality.

Then, out of nowhere, a medium stomper decided to wreck half of my Gleba base, even though the spores never reached any of the nests. It conveniently avoided the few sections with gun turrets like the Pentapod egg breeding section. I frantically tried to destroy it with artillery, but I kept missing until it decided to just walk around in circles next to my yumako mash processing section. After a few hits, it was dead, but so was my Gleba base. It fragmented both my power and my logistics system, so I'll need to manually go back to Gleba to fix everything.

Fairly well. Procrastinating going to Aquilo.

I'm playing with a friend and we just got the Rush to Space achievement. Then we made a production for purple science packs quite quickly because we already had most of the stuff for those ready.

Now were probably gonna make yellow science packs and then go to fulgora. Before that I may spend some time on vulcanus though, as my friend did most of the work there and I have some plans for there.

Bear space age already multiple times. This time I'm doing something weird and interesting. I'm sourcing all the items to nauvis and putting it into the train network. As raw materials as I can get. Instead of making specific things on specific planets I decided to import Everything.

Besides gleba because that's impossible with the fucking spoilage.

Also thinking of installing a mod to remove restrictions on items for each planet so I can just import the raw ingredients for everything.

Also been working on my space platforms, I have gotten several very efficient designs based on non-stop high speed throughput. Sense nuclear is nauvis, I rarely ever use solar and turrets on my ships are small and only for backup. Although thinking of just saving space and removing them. There pointless for the inner planets anyways.

6000 hours and still going. Making weird interesting and cursed designs are some of my favorite things.

I just finished lights around a constant combinator that serves as a switch for recovery of power in case of a brownout on Vulcanus. The lights are circling around the combinator while changing colours through the whole spectrum.

It's completely useless and I love it and am very proud about it. I spent 2 evenings on it :-)

After beating the game i went to gleba to explore that beatiful planet and i'm thinking of redesigning the factory with the goal of making it simpler and with a higher throughput less reliant on bots

Packing for Vulcanus. Probably going to need more than 2 silos if I want to leave any time soon with everything. Going to a planet with an entirely new tech tree is exciting and scary.

I just beat the game on a mod-free run. Now I’m farming shattered planet for Prometheum to do research, though there isn’t a huge amount of purpose to it now.

I’ve also been hanging out on fulgora a lot this week. I have a huge recycler setup that uses legendary quality mods to recycle stuff, so I’m building up a nice stockpile of crafting goods in all the qualities, and made a blueprint to grind out legendary items
