Biological Power Overwhelming - Factorio Space Exploration #20

[@alexanderdemont1104]

I enjoy every series I've seen, watching Zisteau begin totally "normal" and slowly devolve over each episode into a raving lunatic

[@querela92]

All those juice 🧃 and cotton 🍭. Can't be healthy. Then those experiments 🥼...

[@BrenMonkey]

All the StarCraft music and sounds were choice. I forgot how awesome those tracks are.

[@greywolf6443]

Same here. That was some instant nostalgia...

[@Sayoko-Von-Silve]

Agreed. Loads of fun Starcraft nostalgia to be had while he went at it. :D

[@thermondable]

Annnnd redownloaded

[@AnotherDuck]

Zisteau is good at using old classics.

[@callsigncarrot8742]

I grew up playing two and tried to play one. Going backwards is.... really tough... Watching the AI slow down to turn to go on a diagonal is infuriating.

[@diftor]

Reminder that Zisteau is still using the mod version 0.5 - setups likely will have problems/not work if used with mod version 0.6+. Mods used are in the description. All published blueprints related to this series are also in the description.

[@chickentenderlover2412]

most of if not all of the changes were related to the early game specifically BEFORE the first rocket launch and modules

"...then we need to find out what happens when you set something on fire, right after you give it life. Wow! Science!" - Zisteau is having his Cave Johnson moment

[@refreshfr]

I don't know if this message is going to be seen and if anyone understands the context, but hey, thanks to you Zisteau I managed to move out more easily. It was hard as hell, but more manageable thnaks to your kind words. Hearing your voice is always such a calming experience and leaves me happier, regardless of what the video is about (but it's a huge bonus that you're my favorite Factorio content-creator around !) Anyways, thanks for everything

[@thewritinglefty4889]

Dude, don't know what you're going through, but CONGRATULATIONS!

List of Starcraft references Opening music is the Terran theme 4:00 4:04 4:08 "Nuclear launch detected" zerg voice line 4:32 "orders sir" marine voice line 4:34 Siege tank deploying sound effect 4:37 "yes sir" Marine voice line 5:53 "power overwhelming" archon voice line. Also a cheatcode in SC1 7:00 Terran theme again 8:46 Terran theme again, it's a banger after all 10:06 "power overwhelming" voice line again 11:16 Terran theme 20:11 Zerg noises. Do not ask me which unit or building, they ALL sound like that 30:02 Terran theme to end it off I probably missed a few here and there, but that's most if not all of the references Thank you Z, for making me want to play Starcraft 1 again.

[@KuroRainbow]

ACTUALLY, 20:11 those were hydralisk noises xD sorry ._.

[@perchy22]

@@KuroRainbow They may all vaguely sound similar, but they are also distinct and identifiable. I still occasionally make zergling noises as an idle noise.

[@Handles_Are_Bad.Phuk-them-off]

i would not say these are starcraft references, he is not referencing. He is using the original starcraft/broodwar soundscape/soundtrack to enhance this video.

sweet choice of music/sfx throughout this ep!

[@pennyjim5671]

15:50, there's a missing belt, so those two machines can't actually output

[@Alaithian]

Forgot to research acid resistant belts

[@rodon265]

Great video as always. fun fact. You can add research to queue with double right click. Just select your destination, and double right click away all the requirements. Just in case anyone didn't know.

[@Reaver_1989]

Great soundtrack. Unlocked some great memories.

[@AkiSan0]

that starcraft tune at the beginning!

[@Anon3000-]

Took a break from this series for a few months, ended up watching 10 episodes in a few days. Amazing as always Zisteau!

[@marlonricken1547]

This is so legendary edited and played!

[@Kabluey2011]

Love the starcraft vibes of the episode. As soon as I heard it, I knew it was going to be a awesome episode

[@canisin]

I loved the use of starcraft sounds in this episode! Made me so nostalgic.

[@WuddupDok]

Man, this series is so well done. @Zisteau clearly no dummy! Designs are brilliant, presentation is super entertaining and informative. Super inspired to get back to getting my Nauvis orbit base into the advanced science stages. Thanks!

[@bensonprice4027]

I'm really liking this series. Having seen what goes into playing space exploration, I don't think I'd ever want to try it. I'm glad it's here for me to watch instead.

[@Cyrikyty]

8:30 You could have used the energy beam to power the outpost. It's a bit awkward to translate the beam into power using regular heat exchangers, and you have to be quite careful not to make the heat pipe too long. Can always replace the heat pipes with nuclear reactors. Even if the build doesn't technically need any, they still do function as longer heat pipes, as I'm sure you know. There's also, thankfully, no side effect to running a 10000°C beam output into a nuclear plant that isn't designed to go above 1000°C.

[@javierzurera986]

I am binging this series and the SC soundtrack in this episode made me smile. Good job!

[@ArkDEngal]

really digging the starcraft soundtrack

[@MunchyG]

I absolutely love this series and can't wait for deep science

[@Yonkage-ik5qb]

The biomass: I've been brain-fried, electrified, infected and injectified, vivisectified, and fed pesticides...

[@The_Jacmac]

At 15:52 a set of your Vitalic Acid are outputting onto a belt that doesn't go anywhere. Also at 19:01 you can see the two machines I'm talking about, they're the 5th set down from the top. Space officer Svensen slipping. That's for sure. Absolutely awesome episode though, can't wait to see more!

[@Bobbyblack6]

this series is so good. i appreciate them!

[@chardonnay5767]

The best episode yet.

[@offcrcartman]

The machines in this mod pack are so neat!

[@necroasnight]

this just made my day. thanks for all the smiles Z!

[@GoldenredDragon]

I’m impressed. Thank you!

[@rajvinjamuri7]

Incredible. I wonder how many in game hours each of these videos are. Love the time lapse and jump cuts

[@TheChattelKing]

Loving al the Starcraft music.

[@Cyrikyty]

I don't know if some of the values have been tweaked between 0.5 and 0.6, some recipes are definetly different and vitalic acid is a liquid nowadays, but something you might want to keep an eye on, in my playthrough, I had to flush my biosludge tanks. My backup process to make additional biosludge never once came active after filling the tanks up initially. My Space-base produced more of it as byproduct than it needed. I don't know why, my calculations through Factory Planner indicates that should NOT be the case, but whatever. They might or might not fill up leaving bio-science deadlocked since pretty much every process spits out biosludge, most of the time contaminated.

[@Zisteau]

I have the tanks wired up so when there's a certain amount in them the pumps from the fresh biosludge won't let more through.

[@daanmageddon]

Nice Starcraft references. FUSION COMPLETE!

[@vashm87]

dude is over here building his own zerg swarm exclusively to watch it crushed/burned/irradiated/etc... the lenghts we go for science XD

[@RamielNagisa]

Love the use of SC BGM

[@Revilo403]

Literally no knowledge of the game just really enjoy how Zed does things and so funny. Play some other games too, miss your vids

[@KuroRainbow]

15:50, still watching video but your vitalic acid capsule, 1 belt is not connected o: edit 1 19:10, still not fixed XD. I know it is just those 2 machines, but still means a lot ! aahhh, u didn't see it, but I hope you will catch on like this

[@purrsistent9954]

Btw, your vitalic acid build is missing a blue belt on the second row of machines

0:35 and I'm already laughing tears 🤣

[@memegohere_brr]

Make sure to turn off your auto weapons on your vita planet. One little biter meteor sneaks through your defense and lands in your base, and suddenly you are nuking and glaiving yourself. The biters' own fault for not obeying the treaty, but it turns into a bigger problem for you.

[@miege90]

yeah!

[@spiritmorin]

Starcraft soundtrack. I wish I can play that game. But I can't. Factory must grow.

[@MrTomyCJ]

If it's annoying, I think the jetpack smoke can be disabled. Or maybe only by turning off all steam effects.

[@jensjacobludvigsen1909]

How many science does your base produce pr minute

[@MrDivinity22]

Is there any way to see your process of developing those blueprints? It feels a little deus ex machina and somewhat disconnected to your "oh, I don't know what these ingredients are" in the voiceover (granted the latter is very understandable if there are weeks between recording footage and doing voiceover or whatnot).

[@Zisteau]

The modpack is so big and so complex that its hard to explain everything without the video being 10 hours long. I've gone over concepts in previous videos that are carrying over here, plus there are livestreams linked in the description of some of the episodes.

[@MrDivinity22]

@@Zisteau I understand completely. I looked through your VODs (on the ZOD channel and briefly on twitch) and couldn't find you working on the sciences in the last few streams, so I was wondering whether something is missing there, or did you develop them much earlier?

[@Zisteau]

@@MrDivinity22 Yeah I haven't streamed the recent science layout stuff because it takes a long time to figure out.
