[@ronaldmullins8221]

Not to criticize, but when I read, "a machine that can make anything," I was looking forward to something that could make all iterations. Now you're making me want to get this game and try and make the omni-machine

[@xxdeadoutxx761]

That would be an entire other kind of bitch to make

[@jeremy.N]

yeah, i have been thinking about that too, but it is going to be really hard to do.

[@aidenslatten66]

That would take more than a lifetime to make... I just did some quick math so This might be wrong but, There is more than 1 septillion different combinations. Septillion is 1 followed by 24 zeros. 4 spaces on each of the 4 layers equaling 16 spots. 4 shapes with 8 colors equaling 32 plus empty is 33. Meaning 33^16 Possible combinations...

[@jeremy.N]

@@aidenslatten66 yeah, but you could just have a selection area, where you link up the correct things, for example green color, red color and the upper left square. (to then get a yellow upper left square) then you just choose how your tile will look like in the end.

[@blacklistnr1]

Great idea, but without an "if" or a "valve" component you can't build an elegant solution. Just the dialer where you would pick the shapes, rotations, color and places would be quite complex without more powerful components

[@TSPxEclipse]

The true Omni-machine: A set of harvesters that gather a each corner piece, a set of cutters that split the corner pieces into the desired shape, a set of rotators that orient each corner to each placement, a set of painters that paint each shape in each orientation to each color, a vast network of combiners that is capable of combining every permutation of each of the huge sets of corner pieces, and finally an even more vast network of even more combiners that are capable of combining every permutation of each layer (this step must be repeated for every additional layer). Math (keep in mind, each total is a unique output and will be factored into the grand total of machines): There are 4 basic corner shapes (circle, square, windmill/fan, and star) and 8 different colors. This is a total of 32 unique color/shape corner pieces. There are 4 corners to a layer. This is a total of 52,360 unique full layers, 5,984 3-corner layers, and 528 2-corner layers. Total of 58,872 total possible layers. For a shape with 2 layers, there are 1,732,985,628 unique shapes. For a shape with 3 layers, there are 34,009,265,287,624 unique shapes. For a shape with 4 layers, there are 500,573,873,452,215,750 unique shapes. Grand total of all possible combinations of all quadrants, shapes, and colors: 500,607,884,450,547,906 perfectly unique shapes in the game (nearly 500 quadrillion machines needed). At 20 Items per second, it would take 7.932 *_EONS_* to export *_ONE_* of each unique shape (one lane of conveyors going 20 items/s, scale as needed, though still an existential impossibility)

[@scotttackett7579]

Sense others have pointed out mistakes and you seem to take it well....your 4 to 8 way splitter is absolutely maddening. At the start you have 4 belts going into two splitters with four belts coming out. So those two splitters are doing absolutely nothing, two full belts coming in, and two full belts leaving per splitter. Then you inexplicably send your bottom belt to the top only to join and split with your top belt, sending half to the bottom again. Only to split that into your bottom two belts. So from the bottom you have two belts at .375 a belt each. Then you have two splitters each receiving a full belt so the next four lines are .5 a belt each. Then the top two belts again receive .375. So now you have weird backup in your input lines and unequal output. What you want to do if you are trying to balance the lines is add a crossover splitter in the middle between the first two currently useless splitters to mix and balance those inputs and outputs. Then you needed to cross the top and bottom lines with a splitter of their own (both on top and bottom) so you mix the top and bottom lines, then a final set of splitters to mix the middle and top/bottom lines and give you our 8 output. I know that description sucked but just look at factorio balancers and you will see what I mean. *edit* Oh, wow didn't realize this was almost a year old, I'm late to this one, sorry.

[@spam9118]

I really love to see you revisit this game. So much has changed in it there’s circuits(which allow you to fully automate the MAM (make anything machine)), mods, achievements, there’s a dlc, there’s so much new in the game I’d love to see you play it again

[@drekbleh7081]

3:43 so you're saying... Don't cross the streams?

[@MirkoCrafter]

Feels like a very primitive Factorio, but with a much heavier focus on resource/space management. Sounds awesome! :D

[@beirirangu]

Here's a way to streamline production, if you ignore the slowness of it: pick the deposits that contain all 4 shape types in the shape, then cut them using the 4 cutter: no need to turn them into the correct direction And for the record, the total number of the different colored shapes that can be fed into the base is 1.37 septillion (1,372,627,638,258,912,038,889,600 to be exact)

[@beirirangu]

Correction: the true number is closer to 40 septillion, but due to how the game handles stacking, the number is MUCH harder to calculate (the shape's overall layers can't have gaps: a level 4 can be a quadrant in and of itself, but the whole shape HAS to have a level 3, 2, and 1, otherwise the level 4 gets demoted to one greater than the lowest layer... therefore while it's technically possible to deliver a shape with a sole level 4, a sole level 3, a sole level 2, and sole level 1, it is impossible to create it)

[@YotaXP]

The downside here is that the unused shapes will back up into the cutter, preventing it from running at all, and there are no overflow/priority splitters to prevent that from happening as far as I know.

[@beirirangu]

@@YotaXP Technically there is: the storage (alternate trash can) has priority sides: when facing left, the bottom belt will be fed first, only unloading through the top belt if the bottom belt is blocked, if there are two shapes being put in at the same time, or if there are shapes stored up, and the same for the input slots: it prioritizes the top input belt (again while facing left)

[@scragar]

The windmill as the game calls it can never spawn more than 3 parts in a shape, and 3 pieces only spawns so far away from the base that it's basically useless. I suggest just going for 2 pieces if you can find it or if you're desperate a few sources of one piece(on my more recent playthrough I got stranded with no two pieces I could find, but I had a strip of 3 quite large 1 piece resource tiles, I had to make do with cutting quarters and stitching them together to get the windmills I needed).

[@scragar]

Also to make white you don't need to mix secondary colours, just mix one of each colour(i.e. mix red + blue + green in any order: red + blue = purple, purple + green = white; red + green = yellow, yellow + blue = white; blue + green = cyan, cyan + red = white). It saves so much mixing

[@scragar]

Also I made the ultimate machine once too, but I did it simpler than you did. I made 4 belts of each colour(requiring 16 inputs of each) and 8 full belt of each shape that'd store 1 full shape of each colour(each shape output in red, blue, green, cyan, purple, yellow, white and uncoloured). These full belts were fed off into 4 storage containers I termed 1a, 1b, 2a, and 2b. The 1s would feed the bottom layer, the 2s the top layer. The storage containers for each layer contained 4 outputs for each shape, these corresponded to the 4 corners of the shape and pulling down 1 belt into the machinery below it produced 1 part in that quadrant. If a shape didn't need a part in that place(so the shape was uneven) there were 7 separate belts I had to control that(unfortunately because there's no logic in the game this was done by changing a belts direction to bypass a combined feed away from a combiner and into output directly, then another to do the same for the combined belt for both secondary belts per layer with a final belt to skip the whole process for 1 layer shapes). It could only produce 1 belt of output, took up about 3 times the space of the factory that it replaced, and making modifications to handle 3 layers made me quit the game for a week in frustration, but it could build any 2 layer shape with any colour parts at a full belt, I'm proud of that.

[@nicoladc]

You could paint the shapes before cutting them, reducing the paint ammount needed by 4

The drawback with that kind of arrangement is, given the way the balancer works, the machines near the end of the lines might suffer due to lack of material. At the end this will prevent the production speed to reach the best potential. Try only limiting max 3 or 4 machines per input line.

[@sighmon5640]

the fastest method of transport is actually storage containers, not belts!. yeah they're limited at transfer rate to twice that of belts, but if you chain 2 or more storage containers together they transfer effectively instantly between them. so if you have a long line of a conveyer belt your waiting on, it can be faster to load it up with storage containers. only works on lines with only 1 shape, but still

[@sighmon5640]

i.e. if you chain 20 storages together, and then pipe into them with 2 full belts, the first one wont even visibly fill. the final one will immediately start filling at the rate of 2 belts

C Sq _ _ + _ St Sq _ where _ is an empty space on the shape, C is circle, St is star, and Sq is square
