Factorio Space Age Speedrun on default setting, time is

[@natedurie1875]

seeing your base defense amount to throwing landmines around when you feel like it really puts into perspective how much easier certain strategies make factorio

[@nonono4160]

Well it works because he is speedrunning. Behemots usually take more than several mines to kill, but since he finishes the game under 9 hours, they are not a problem. He has a predetermined factory size and limited time the factory needs to actually work, so mines are optimal for that situation.

[@RaverJay]

@@nonono4160 Mines also work easily in casual play, explo damage tech makes them much too efficient compared to everything else (on Nauvis)

[@cutah321]

Getting Gleba done so fast that nothing has time to become spoiled almost. Amazing!

[@hotzstGaming]

Impressive, that was 50 times as fast as my first try with Space Age!

[@oblivion_2852]

Gotta trim the stream and update the title for that sweet clickbait for sure

[@emailspamm]

Thanks for your help man, during the run and all.

[@DavidLindes]

5:30:48 - my understanding is that yes, the native lightning collectors do steal your lightning to at least some degree... good to decon them once you have your own.

[@emailspamm]

Yeah figured they'd steal my thunder.

[@DavidLindes]

@@emailspamm hahaha, indeed. :D

[@DavidLindes]

P.S. I finally just finish. 'grats! Your thunder is restored. ;)

[@budoray]

This run made me rethink speedrunning. Great job.

[@zer0701]

I will never get used to this cursed oil setup that became the new meta after the fluids rework, lol Great run!

[@19Titan91]

Really good job man! How often did you practice the run?

[@emailspamm]

Hmm, I did do a segmented run so thats probably amounts to doing the whole run 3 times. And i also practiced all of the planets a couple times, mostly nauvis because its the longest part. Did aquilo the least amount because screw that place. Really happy that i got a time so close to the segmented run (which was like 8:30), forgetting something can be really painful.

[@oblivion_2852]

That's how you set a WR!!

[@AltereggoLol1]

congratulations!

[@binford5000]

around 6:14:00 you craft on Vulcanus because you forgot to drop from the ship. you could have just dropped it without you being on the ship

[@fisheatinweasel]

GG!

[@YouTonyx]

Very nice! And thanks for sharing the file!

[@hellyworld]

On the space platform why you used those big numbers to filter the rocks, iron?

[@emailspamm]

It's to limit stuff stored in the hub. Basically the number overflows when the number gets too big so it turns negative which stops the crusher doing that recipe. Someone else in the comments also explained it better.

[@hellyworld]

on the same pipe you have 3 fluids? what !? O_x

[@ludimus70]

good run

[@kakacake8752]

Omg finally someone speedruns

[@rafald5097]

Nerfums did space age WR like month ago

[@kakacake8752]

@ i know and i felt asleep watching it ngl

[@truc1405]

GG ! I don't get the result induced by the magic number 2^31 on science platform. What's the logic ? where can I find documentation about it ?

[@radorei]

It's called integer overflow. He uses it to set multiple filter limits with one constant combinator instead of having one decider combinator for each filter item. So for example, a signal with 2^31-20 metallic asteroids will overflow (and set the filter to 0) once 20 asteroids are on the belt.

[@truc1405]

@@radorei Thanks, I get it now :)

[@MarkMichon7]

Very impressive. I didn't beat the game yet, but it was like 30H before I even left Nauvis lol

[@The6232888]

as soon as you beat the game you will lose motivation man take your time and enjoy every planet max research and quality hunt achievements

[@aleksszukovskis2074]

43:02 Nooooo, fix the 7 miners

[@oblivion_2852]

Lmao that box full of undergrounds 3:09:00

[@emailspamm]

Yeah it really chugged all the iron 😭

[@RaverJay]

Fantastic run, very nice WR! Might want to lower game sound quite a bit to improve the VOD viewing experience :)

[@DavidLindes]

or boost the mic... then again, that might make moments like 3:49:29 a bit painful. Maybe those can be worked on as well, somehow. :) (sticklord: MINOR complaint, here... I wouldn't even mention it, except as a reply here.)

[@KanariaUsee]

Cool!

[@DukePaprikar]

Sluuuuurrrp!

[@OscarPerez-w1f]

It’s sad that the devs were pressured into reducing gleba science to the 3-4 steps that it is now. It is by far the easiest planetary science, but people still want Gleba to be removed from the game.

[@oblivion_2852]

It's because everyone builds main bus with huge buffers of resources between recipes. Gleba basically forces players to use direct insertion and yet they protest
