Factorio Train Stations in 3 Levels

Level 1: Engineer. To build a train station, you need a few basic materials: trains, rails and fuel. A useful trick in factorio is how items can be chained through different machines. For example, beacons can be chained together to equally distribute modules. The same is possible with trains.
Level 2: Noob. Anyone can catch a train, but it takes a man to be a noob. Noobs don’t know the first thing about managing a rail network, which is where signals come in. Signals are used to customize how your rail system looks. Using different combinations of signals and tracks creates a fun disco effect. They are also useful for troubleshooting. The general rule of thumb for signals is: first just keep adding more chain signals until it eventually works, or remove every single signal and hope that there is never a collision. It is also more Uranium-235 Per Second friendly to have no signals, because that means less entities on the map.
Level 3: Conductor. Once you’ve figured out all the basics of trains, it’s time to go full Thomas, and build a train road. This is a strange concept to wrap your head around, but bear with me. It requires a few more rails than normal, but the pay-off is worth it. All you need to do is lay down a bunch of rails in a perfect column, then rotate it and place it on itself. Then make a row of diagonal rails, and paste that down in the same way. Now you make a series of curved rails in every possible configuration, and paste it down on top of everything else, until you get something that looks like this. Now you can drive a train around like a car. If you run into any dead ends, just copy and paste the entire thing again onto itself upside down. All you have to do is cover the entire playable area with this design, then remove bits of it for your assemblers and miners, and you will never need another signal again. The only drawback is that it will crash your game every time you use it, but I believe it to be worth it.

Most cursed Factorio video ive ever seen lmao

[@davidupton2017]

Interesting video, but I would actually like to request that you never cover anything ever again

[@Jonah.Kessler]

Why did you say that 😢

[@Buzz727]

dark joke but for factorio

[@TS-jm7jm]

amen

[@daveawb]

🤣🤣

[@SonicBlueTyphoon]

Okay the last tip is actually pretty cool. If it didn't give u like 1 frame per year, I'd probably actually implement it for fun xD

[@FantasticMrGhost]

To be an exceptional engineer, one must first be insane. And have a computer with a cooling pond surrounding it.

[@travisteall8469]

wait. you can just lay down every possible track??????

[@lianvitos]

I have quite a bit of experience with factorio, but I never thought you could build roads for trains, as shown at 01:30

[@junaidywijaya6413]

Not the lag from placing the rail blueprints lol 😂

[@janforberger675]

Now I want to create a blueprint for a train road that's fully signaled, so it can run automated trains

[@alext5497]

We don't do that here

[@NatanStarke]

You will never need to signal again because your pc will be long gone in a explosion ahhaha

[@hqmzeh]

@trupen finally found a competitor

[@Lightndavoid]

Oh my god this is incredible 😆 deserves way more attention

I laughed so hard I almost fell out of my chair, thank you so much.

[@deanlawson6880]

OMG pave the world with train tracks!! Hahahaha!!!!

[@HafusAndLegacy]

thanks for the video, wild ride

[@SteamFi]

Wow

[@huginn1879]

Level 3....

Ha😂😂😂😂😂😂

I know, this video is supposed to be funny, but the lame ai voice over ruins it for me.

[@zovisapphire]

nothing AI about it... it's a REALLY old text-to-speech voice included with windows

[@pain3dw]

@@zovisapphire And this doesn't make it any better. Text to speech just sound like crap.

[@McJorgan]

it is a simple voice for a simple solution to signal noobery @@pain3dwalso I just muted and turned on CC

[@JakovLSSJ4]

@@zovisapphire pretty sure that's just old AI, wdym nothing AI about it?
