Krastorio: Tech Towers! - EP 8

Life gives us challenges, and sometimes that challenge is biters on the landfill wall.

I'm impressed by the amount of 'factory' clips you found lmao

[@DocJade]

I had a LOT more, i actually had to cut back quite a lot

[@louwrentius]

@@DocJade please use the rest on the next one 👍😆🌷

[@Hawk7886]

@@DocJade shit I gotta know... _how??_ That's way too specific of nerd knowledge to happen without outside help and it's driving me nuts

[@SleepyHarryZzz]

​@@Hawk7886i don't know how he did it, but in principle there's plenty of sites that have scripts posted, a search on that for "factory" can get you a list of films / scenes and from there some youtubing for the clips would work.

[@cheetawilliam]

Artillery is really good in this one. Perfect for clearingout nests.

[@AstaZora]

You're joke about blanks really caught me off guard .

[@JoeldaSilvaVicenteFilho]

4:31 love the spidertron only stepping on the landfill

[@ripecontext]

06:24 i noticed this in my rampant playthrough, and I seem to remember DoshDoshington encountering this at some point too. It seems that the biters get an amount of “thinking time” allocated that they share between all of them, so you will find some completely inert like this for extended periods of time. Usually for me it was when a large attack was forming all of the nest patrolling biters would stop moving assumedly because the attack was using so much processor time.

[@QueueWithACapitalQ]

You have made it _clear_ that the glass jokes wont stop

[@seanmilisits2820]

loving this series keep it up!

[@Jortpower2009-ev8io]

U the first

[@seanmilisits2820]

@@Jortpower2009-ev8io indeed i was aha

[@Wannigan]

FYI - Shift right click to copy a recipe, shift left click to "paste" it to a new assembler.

[@DocJade]

Yep! I use it constantly!

[@Humaricslastcall]

@@DocJade Also FYI: You can paste recipies using a Blueprint as well.

[@Wannigan]

@@DocJade it pained me to see you destroy the copper and replace with iron at the beginning. I did not know this trick for a hundred or so hours into my save. yikes.

[@alexadamsky]

I am so impressed that you’re not using tier 3 assembly machines. Having assembler machine counts into the 300 range for 1 product is dedicated as fuck. Respect.

[@maltardraco9555]

If you want to clear out biters quickly, I recommend not a spidertron as Krastorio nerfs them heavily. Instead go for green artillery, it can clear out an entire base of nests from a mile away.

[@raizors1331]

"Oh mister doc why are you leaving so much spa... Oh!"

[@Pig_Style_101]

loves barrels for moving fluid? and here I thought you were rational?!?!? all kidding aside, very good stuff, keep it up man.

[@swiftcraft824]

That grandpa joke was so out of nowhere 😂😂

[@YeOldePixelShoppe]

I started using loaders + big boxes to do my equalizers instead of the classic designs - hard to break habbits though :-)

[@teneksi7803]

My worst habit is underbuilding science assemblers and then impatiently waiting far too long when I'm trying to hit a research goal. I'm going to teach my brain, which complains and balks at all the setup in the later part of this video, by reminding it of the absolute cascade of technologies at the end of the video

[@Josharoonie-lf9lp]

The joke at 22:38 made me pause the video because it made me laugh out loud so hard. Great Video!

[@eXegeDlinK]

15:45 full red belt of each science... Have fun with singularity then ;)

[@Shalterra]

Definitely still rocking a satisfying sense of humor, and I'm hopeful for this binge to continue

[@digistruct0r245]

dad jokes and grandpa lore is why I'm subscribed

Красивое фото над заголовком перед просмотром, приятного вам просмотра и аппетита)

[@elpepe3923]

MY KNOWELEDGE......... IT WAS PASSED ON!!!! YEEEEES!!!

[@QueueWithACapitalQ]

14:15 instead of putting underground's inbetween every assembler, if you put 2 next to each other a red can fit underneath both so you don't need it as long

[@hedgehuug1603]

This was really funny. Good video

[@Jortpower2009-ev8io]

Great video as always❤

[@absobel]

Extremely big fan of the Doctor Who clip

[@andresmartinezramos7513]

The episodes are not the only thing getting longer, thanks

[@sanderbos4243]

That's a lot of research!

[@kronusaerospace8872]

Ah yes casual 1800 science per minute base.

[@GeneralBolas]

Your "quick math" was wrong. With prod modules, stone->sand->landfill only uses ~14 stone per landfill. Also, you seem oddly allergic to speed beacons and prod modules. Like... they exist. You could save so much space (and resource consumption).

[@DocJade]

Ah! i don't do the math with modules usually, so that's why it slipped past me whoops

[@Neighter]

​@@DocJade if you'll ever mind giving a try for se/sek2 - modules are sorta must-have for progression after t3/4 modules are discovered.

[@spirit_miku]

Putting flamethrowers mixed I with the laser turrets would help

[@8eewee]

Assuming you still feel like recording (or just playing) another modpack after this, thoughts on Freight Forwarding?

[@DocJade]

I'll put it on the list! No guarantees though!

[@johnm.3217]

[@AIaura]

You can pick up biomass with your shovel in the right hand little 3 dots and then use that to jumpstart the research into biomass.

[@thx4ban736]

nah bro why the part on your grandpa shooting blank LMAO

[@La_Verge]

What's up with gears not being on bus anymore? How were you wrong?

[@joehowarth4962]

Hydrogen

[@SkarrDE2001]

Factory.

[@fast1nakus]

Hope your grandpa is ok.

[@KingTwelveSixteen]

Honestly, the tileable substation design you used uses way more substations than you really need for anything in the base, so seeing you refuse to just...remove some of them when they get in the way really bothers me.

[@DocJade]

Yep! I'm trying to give myself an artificial challenge by building around them :)

[@Autistic-hermit14]

Hopefully there isn’t any tech planes (sorry for 9/11 joke)

[@ZombieZilla.]

Love the video doc, but at 25:18 you said "Laser weapons damage 2" when on-screen it displayed "Energy weapons damage 2", unfortunately this ruined my entire viewing experience.

[@cjk2590]

Thanks for making my day better ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍
