This base is bad don't get me wrong, but dosh is making his statement in regards to the sheer inefficiency of the processing power required. In that regard this base on a per-item produced level is hypothetically the most efficient base possible. That being said in regards to the base that makes dosh question how bad bases can be, a similar concept could have been applied to this base by having the inserters subtract add and subtract what they grab from a total stored in the memory cell that can deactivate stations by comparing against a universal cell, rather than the train sending its contents to a unique cell for each station. IE: if total number of items in the wagon (which should match the contents of the cell barring errors in setting something up) exceeds a given amount for N production cycles, and the amount of items the given station of assemblers makes is below its limit, then enable the station.

I can't imagine why he made a lot of the choices in this challenge run. Why did he not run some pipes instead of barreling everything, even water.(I am the most confused on this) he also went with the most expensive version of a chest(the car lol) after saying no to chests. Also, why were a lot of these intermediate products not directly output into the building like the mining drill to furnace you mentioned. If he was fine with inserting into and out of cars, why did he not create a car main bus line? plus he could have used thrash slots and his inventory instead of logistic chests for the robots to pull some of the weight...

Care to explain how? I only see duplicate stacks for iron and copper plate. You could instead have thrown in more loops to iron and copper smelting at several points throughout the tape. Also, your miners could have direct inserted ores into smelters, but that seems to go against the spirit of the challenge. Then again, it's exactly what you did in the beginning. And there is one barrel type (probably crude oil) that you carry 2 stacks of. The one thing I wondered throughout the video was why you didn't build your oil processing adjacent to the oil patch and skipped barreling fluids? Or at least skipped barreling raw oil? Would those 3 things have been the changes you thought of?

Huh, there are a lot of things that I would have done differently there, but I know you were AFK for a lot of that. One of the big things would be finding coal close enough to water so that the boilers could just be direct inserted into, or so you could run longer pipes from the pumps. Another would be to make things "directly" more often, e.g. miners insert into furnaces that feed directly into assemblers. IIRC this allows higher buffering, but maybe you already get that from inserting directly to/from the train. Certain things like yellow belt are made entirely with iron, so you could just load that directly rather than bringing ore and coal to a smelter, bringing plate to a gear maker, bringing gears to a belt-maker, etc. All in all, an incredibly tedious run toward the end, and I quite enjoyed watching the timer take huge leaps into the future as it required more and more waiting around.

Quick improvement idea. You could have used one memory cell to keep track of all the items in your system. You'd just have to read the hand contents of the inserters as a push signal and multiply those that take something out of the system by -1. Then you could have disabled the stations before the train arrived, saving even more time. Also how did you like the cheese cake?

@nicodemuseam Жыл бұрын
Train conditions for each stop could eliminate the need for filtering most wagon slots and allow for more varied loads, but everything would have to be exact, up to limiting hand size on the inserters so they only place into the train what is needed. Kudos for (mostly) sticking to your guns on having as few buffers as possible, like pipes and cars. No tanks for oil cracking sounds like a killer.

@jan.Pikipo Ай бұрын
Well, you don't even need that many components, even on the version Doc was playing. You only need a maximum of 3. It takes 1 arithmetic combinator to turn constant signals into a 1-tick pulse: wire up signal from source to that combinator and also straight to the target, set the combinator to * each by -1. Since it takes any signal 1 tick to pass any combinator, and since all signals of the same type are added when entering any input point, it will only allow the signal to pass for 1 tick, then subtracting it with it inverse for all the other ticks, up until the signal stops, which for the same reason of ticks being delayed by 1 tick by combinators will allow through the inverse for 1 tick after the main signal already stops It takes then 1 decider combinator to not let the inverse pass, by setting it to output the each input when and only when that input is greater then 0, i.e. positive. Then it takes 1 decider combinator to make the memory cell, by connecting its output to input, which will effectively store any incoming 1-tick signals by sending them back into itself every tick (remember that combinator still delays the signal for 1 tick between the input and the output). Using decider combinators for memory cell even allows easy reset capabilities, since it only outputs while the condition inside it is true, so by passing any signal which makes that condition false you stop all the signals, and even when the false-condition-signal is no longer active, all the other stored signals will be already gone. It will in fact even stop the cell from accepting any new data until the condition becomes true again And for the purposes of the problem, you probably don't even need to stop negative signal from leaking through, since it will practically reset the cell right when the train departs (by adding inverse signal to the signal in cell), and by that point train already decided where it should be heading, making stored info unneeded. And that will save you trouble finding any other way to detect train's departure and resetting the cell according to that. Hope anyone finds that info usefull, lol

You can mix accumulators and coal power. Have a power switch isolate your steam engines from the rest of the base, use circuits to read an accumulator's charge, and turn the switch on when charge is low. It leads to the switch flickering since the steam charges the accumulator, shutting it of, and the accumulator discharging, turning it on, but I haven't noticed a downside other than the power graph being a mess.
@TomRibbensUC
@TomRibbensUC 4 ай бұрын
If you add a RS Latch, you can make it so coal fires up at 20%, but stops only at 60% for example, for less flickering. Or you control the water pumps instead of a power switch. They pump in enough water quickly so the coal keeps on working a bit longer, so the flickering again is slower.

@foop145 4 ай бұрын
For the record, if you're just checking if something is present or not, there's a way simpler way of doing it than having a decider combinator for each item. If you use an arithmetic or decider to drop every single signal down to 1, then have a constant combinator that outputs 1 of all the items you wanna check for, you can use a decider to only let through signals = 2 This destroys the count, so it can't act as a filter, but it can act as a sort of buffer for filter inserters. Makes stack inserters a lot more powerful when you can effectively set infinite filters for them. And it's definitely useful when you're checking train inventories for stuff

Fun fact about the rocket: while it takes power to craft the rocket parts from LDS, RCU, and rocket fuel, the actual launching of the rocket itself does not take power. So the moment that last rocket part is crafted, if you lose all power, the rocket can still be launched. Therefore, the recipe to craft 1000 space science from 1 satellite is one of only two recipes that is done within a machine that does not take any power (the other is 'crafting' water via an offshore pump). (also the other rocket launch recipes, like space science to fish also count, so I should really generalize to saying 'rocket launch recipes do not take power').

I don’t know but I think, that if you do something like this you should have an extremely complex logic system, were you try to balance the production in such a way, that first iron is made for gears which are filed in to an Assembler which needs them and then turned in to further needed materials. Then Copper is made and so on. This way you would slowly cascade up words tile you make all the needed since. So you would try to make a system in which every assembler only ever needs one thing at a time after a startup period and that in the best case scenario at one moment only one thing is needed in the hole factory to continue the since production. The circuit conditions for this system would bee extremely complex but the train would only move the really needed things in nearly exactly the needed amount.

That would allow the train to use the entire capacity for every delivery run, would allow for prioritizing stations, and even doing round-robin between stations that are of the same priority. This would shift the challenge from trying to work around the train scheduling limitations, and more to building an efficient factory with this throughput limitation.

Having watched the video, I see one minor and one major improvement. You could keep track of the train contents like a sushi belt, which might make it easier. The big thing is actually setting up your train path good. I would make it so that the train would pick up all the needed items to produce a full set of science/rocket parts, or at least always goes with a full buffer. While this would increase some cycles, it should vastly decrease the amount of time wasted going in useless loops. Combine this with circuits to cut off entire production chains early and maybe some math to optimize your travel vs production values, and space science might be doable.
@ladyravendale1

I was doing some more thinking, and I believe I found the best strat: use multiple assembler stops for the same item in a loop. Considering just the very endgame, on the longest recipes it should only be a few stack inserter swings to leave an assembler running for 30+ seconds. Instead of wasting that time waiting, put more ingredients to start more assemblers. I haven’t done a the math, but it feels like you could get a speed increase of at least 2x, and maybe even 5x or more on the later science and rocket parts.

What do you mean by buffer chests? Chests that go before or after the assemblers? Yes, that would greatly decrease the waiting time. Here's a slight modification to keep the spirit of insanity of this run: You are allowed chests, but only for "warehousing". i.e. your chests can't be linked to anything except for the train. First advantage: You can have chests for iron and copper plates spread throughout the "tape" that you pre-fill (possible from the outside) so that you don't keep running out of them halfway though on the long trip along the tape loop. Only once all of the warehouses are stocked would a circuit condition enable stations inside the "tape". The second benefit would be that you can stock up on empty barrels before interacting with a barreling machine and empty the stack of empties before interacting with an un-barreling machine.

@@Maric18 I agree. The actual challenge here in the end seemed to have been that the production was unreasonably throttled. It was basically the "train bus" base that I've seen some youtuber do before, but with 100 times fewer wagons on the train.

I think it would be a lot faster to NOT set the filters in wagon and manage it on the station side. Also, speed control mod would help you with idling time. I don't think anyone would mind that.

Yeah that would be way faster, then you could at least double effective space by putting inputs before outputs - smelting all ore right away. Trickier to manage though, you could get deadlocked if you made too much of something.

I think it would be interesting to do this run but with 2 changes: Remove the insertion limit on smelters/assemblers so that inserters will fill their inputs rather than just load enough for a couple batches Add recursive blueprints so you can automatically change the filters on the cargo wagon at different stations. I bet it'd be possible to get at least like, 1 or 2 spm all but space with those 2 changes and a good setup..

I remember teh days before fluid wagons were a thing, you had to just put barrels of oil into the wagon.

I can't say it's the case but naming the robots "flying robots" could just be an intuitive game design choice. That way you have an idea of what they are before you use them so it's something you can aim towards on the tech tree. It's not a very big thing but small choices like that can accumulate to influence how easy it is for players to get into a game/feel more secure while playing it. It's kinda like how most good games involving puzzles tend to tease a mechanic in a very easy and intuitive way to understand before having you use it yourself to solve a puzzle.

Next time you can make the train move, plus use inserters to move items between the machines and THE CARGO WAGON but no chests and no belts. Pipes aren't allowed, but you also get a FLUID WAGON

19:05 would you not only need to account for the space taken up by the length along the track, not the entire 3x3 v 2x2 and does that make any math diff?

how about building steam boilers directly at a coal patch so you dont have to manually refuel them? also i think you could do oil cracking, plastic, sulphur and robot frames directly at the oil patch so you dont need any space for barrels
