"goodbye Grass". oh boy, let's get strapped in

[@sheaconlonswain9082]

One simply does not touch grass whilst playing Factorio👌

[@QueueWithACapitalQ]

Esspecially when you start in the desert.

[@QueueWithACapitalQ]

@CoreReaper i think its that green stuff the ground is made of

[@8eewee]

I think it's spelled Landfill.

[@MalleusSemperVictor]

Grass? What belt does that go on?

[@bosstradamus7896]

Weed ?

[@QueueWithACapitalQ]

Mods make offshore pumps take power becuase they add some form of power generation before you get to steam. The only reason vanilla doesnt make offshore take power is because you cant hand feed water, so without power you cant pump the first bits of water needed to generate your first power to then power the pumps.

[@achtsekundenfurz7876]

Exactly. For fuel feed, we have coal-fired miners and inserters, but there's no coal-fired pump. It would be cool if we had those with high volume but low pressure -- so to supply 20 boilers you'd have to combine both. Even worse, fluids don't fit in inventory, so no manual handling or crafting.

[@ex4787]

I was thinking they could have made a manually operated pump to get your first bit of water, but it would be the only item in the game with that particular interaction

[@Atlessa]

Hamster wheel for powering the first pump. :D

[@TheBloofyx]

Ah, the "l'll use placeable trees to help with pollution" delusion we all went through :3

[@ripecontext]

Your editing is great, and you bring a sort of energy not often seen in these kind of videos. This is great, I've subscribed.

[@stylianstamatis8000]

the most epic crossover of our lifetimes

[@ripecontext]

@@khgfghdfgh I've posted a community post discussing just this. Now go back to supporting this guy we're in his channel.

[@Flavourius]

One tip, you can overshoot while targeting biters, bullets will hit anything during their path, it's not hitting just the point you've shot at.

[@pulsefel9210]

use this when sniping worms and nests. i target that and just go. anything that makes the mistake of getting between explodes

[@raiguard]

Thanks for playing K2! Really looking forward to this series. There is an interesting technical reason for the scaling up of recipes. Factorio has a game engine limitation where a crafting machine can only do one craft per tick at maximum. Believe it or not, it was possible to reach this limit in K2. The recipes were scaled up to fix this issue, allowing you to run the late game machines at full speed without running into that problem (most of the time).

[@DocJade]

That's actually super interesting! I knew there had to be a good reason for it :)

[@ex4787]

K2 machines manufacturing things faster than an M249 can put rounds down range is kind of fun to think about

[@vulduv]

9:31 Same exact reaction. Also if you wanna hit more shots, aim a bit past the biters instead. The bullets will not go further than your cursor, and by aiming at only the closest biter, it means that if you miss, that bullet wont hit the other biters behind the first. So aim a bit past the group of biters. 15:30 Inserters will prioritise the lane that is closer to them. Though burning coal in the boilers to make power, to then turn into trees is probably more polution efficient for the amount of work. Since coal multiplies a building's polution rate by 2,5 times! And greenhouses produce quite a bit more fuel value in wood, than what they consume in power. And they also absorb some polution as they work. Not sure if it actually is more polution efficient. In my head it seems like it should be, but I'd have to calculate it.

[@theblackdragon7321]

15:25;15:45 the only way as far as I know is to manually load them with coal before powering them to prevent them from using other types of fuel. Until they run out of course xD

[@liketechno4396]

What a nice and colorfull Main-Bus, i hope it will remain clear of any Belt shenanigans

[@CraftMine1000]

Heh...

[@commissarfox]

Shotguns in Krastorio are much, much smoother feeling than in base factorio. If you still find yourself struggling with biters up close, give them a try!

[@thegoldengamer8419]

I have liked some of the changes krastorio makes, they buffed gun turrets alot, increased range,damage and ammo capacity

[@Skellitor301_VA]

Something worth considering is utilizing more loaders, not just for the stuff like ammo production, but for things like science and anything a belt directly ends to. Sure it widens the gap between labs but it saves on things down the road like resources for all the inserters and ups. Trust me, you will need it

[@Dawnseeker_Ch]

I loved the discovery of the speed modules in the greenhouses meant it multiplied the pollution absorption, meaning blue mods are incredibly potent in them for producing more wood and reducing more pollution!

[@maltardraco9555]

"I hope later tech cards aren't extremely complicated." Nobody tell him about singularity tech cards.

[@tedstegall5764]

Just binge watched you green circuit run, finished yesterday. Perfect timing, you dropped a new one. Good stuff man, loving your vibe

[@mohammadmrsh4078]

Finally someone make agood factorio videos. Best of luck man 😊

[@basurissimo6143]

Great video! Loved the little IRL intermissions

[@hubertczyzewski5647]

1 million green circuits in krastorio with wood transporting trains, seems absolutely cursed

[@TjarkNeutronium]

i love your content you made me play and enjoy factorio after 3 years of a break again :)

[@dylanline904]

So excited to see your in depth episodes on this!

[@kaibjerget7487]

Loved this vid, fast paste and made tons of progress instead of having to watch 10 one hour long episodes

[@aboip975]

I just finished your green circuit project an I must say: I love u man! Your Videos are so entertaining! I hope this project will be as good as the last one

[@MartinSparkes-BadDragon]

Inserters take from the near side of the belt first, so the wood is chosen for fuel first. interesting that you can make coke with a belt of wood only - had never considered that. I found that K2 didn't lend itself to a bus as there are too many components

[@Sqweacx]

great intro instant sub cant wait to see what you do

[@computercoma]

Loved your last series! can't wait to see what you can do with this one! Keep up with the good work!

[@minecrafters20001]

Love the content man, exactly what I was looking for!

[@MinyaKinar]

Already loving the new series! Glad I subscribed.

[@user-ii9vn6vo6k]

There's a mod called rate calculator where you just select your machines or furnaces etc. like you are copying them, and it gives you the rates per second, per minute, and more. It's pretty dope and seems useful trying to figure out new mods. I'm happy with your choice of Krastorio, can't wait for the Pyanodon playthrough :)

[@HenryLoenwind]

The "and more" includes measurements in belts, which I find most useful.

[@Deadmanposting]

Yussss new doc jade video. Heck yeah krastorio is great

[@wayabot]

Randomly got you on my homepage and I like your videos lmao

[@aarninja1460]

I'm so glad youtube recommended me this video. Love your editing and video style!

[@GunarCannon]

Great vid. Finally a factorio player with personality and actually edits

[@Will-my1ys]

Literally just finished my first play-through of Krastorio 2 yesterday, 49 hours total playtime. It's quite a commitment

[@Septimus_ii]

That sounds surprisingly quick

[@vladimirdaljic5078]

Bro i still havent automated matter tech card and im on around 70ish hours

[@henrydutoit69]

I like how factorio is one of the few games where you can say you played 50 hours and people will still call you a noob.

[@Blizzard-Clips]

Your Videos are soo good, how do you only have 3k subs ?!?!?

[@florianschaetzel2137]

Ohhh let's goo !! I'm so hype for this new serie !!

[@larryTheLabryinth994]

[@Babaduv]

Real relaxing, please keep it up 😤

[@ProffesorFarnsworth]

Quality work. I'm looking forward to more!

[@Trigger0x10c]

I really like your editing style, looking at this bus does feel like experiencing the joys of getting waterboarded right after being electrocuted with a car battery by Guantanamo bay's employee of the month though

[@TLST520]

the trick to using guns in krastorio is not to aim to the biter but to aim behind it

[@AstaZora]

The gears on the bus go round and round

[@daviddelayat-dnapictures]

Loved it ! I subscribed to see more of it :)

[@Schmidtstone]

you just saved my week man. I'm staying at an inn over the next three weeks and I have nothing to watch but now I'm prepared!

[@DocJade]

[@nitthecroller]

Eii, ye'r playing it! Lovely. Time to watch this episode like five times till the next one comes out.

[@Shalterra]

Just starting up a similar pack myself, and you are a wonderful listen while doing so.

[@ITBlanka]

15:37 I was so unprepared for this joke(?) xD LMAOOOO!!!!

[@juliussoldan4016]

[@candymountain5]

I love big busses with lots of junk on it. Maybe a challange to have the biggest bus ever? ;)

[@niedrumm6642]

Never pressed faster on a video in my life and I didn't get disappointed... Don't know but i never was so fast and hocked by a channel great work ^^

[@kaiseraugustus1393]

Just finished watching your series "1 Mio Green Circuits" and I love the way off editing and commenting, while showing interesting/important things in a regular fashion..... If you really have no idea, what your are doing and what can challenge you...... consider playing Pyadonon :D, would love to see this complex and challenging mod pack played until the end by you...

[@Djones314]

Im excited for this series

[@Samsta303]

all the "weird" things this mod has done to the game is just normal to me after being dumped into a world with this mod with friends the first time I played. I have no idea what the normal game is like

[@stewartbradshaw993]

Watched your last series, really looking forward to how this one pans out, keep up the good work!

[@luizozbal5255]

new factorio channel to binge!

[@RealBaishu]

i absolutely wanna see you play Warptorio... great Content, keep it up :D

[@QueueWithACapitalQ]

As someone who has never played K2 i am very excited to watch this playthrough. I am currently doing a SE and am planning on doing K2 next and maybe Bobs/Angels after or if im feeling it pYanodons depending on how these other playthroughs go. and ill probably play vanilla inbetween just to go back to something similar. I hosted my SE save so my friend could join, they werent enthused about it and didnt really know what they were doing so they started their own vanilla (mostly, some QOL) and i join them on that and its been going much better. I forgot how fast vanilla can go when the game isnt stretched across like 28 different sciences with a bunch more content added to fill the gaps.

[@DocJade]

pYanodons.... good luck lol I dont think ill be touching that for a looooong time

[@QueueWithACapitalQ]

@@DocJade yeah, thats why its last on my list of mods to try

[@al-adeelah2507]

Thanks for sharing, looking forward for next episode. I personally prefer to turn "back" on the auto-aiming from the Mod settings.

[@Bockanator]

Very Good video, you are underated!

[@pulsefel9210]

one thing that erks me every time with krastorio is how the basic smelting ratios are 2 belts of input gets 1 belt of output.

[@BlackTempleGaurdian]

I personally like crafting recipes for furnaces, lets me sushi my ore without filter inserters.

[@Hawk7886]

Damn that sounds cursed lol

[@CraftMine1000]

Oh boy new series!

[@xenoxaos1]

"And I'm purple now" 🤣

[@OrkristLoL]

Love the research analogy

[@sage6539]

Id love to see you use the create mod on Minecraft to reach certain Items per hour in MC

[@luckerowl8990]

I don't know if you know this, but you can add new hotbars and even swap between active ones, which is very useful if you have a lot of blueprints/books, as you can place the blueprint in said hotbar without needing it in your inventory. I imagine you're gonna have a lot of different buildings for this playthrough so more hotbars is helpful for that

[@derekexplosion]

cant wait to see it play out!

[@sinborn41214]

Research queue after game is finished? Ouch! That's a factory default setting I'd NEVER leave as is.

[@DocJade]

I ALWAYS forget and it drives me nuts

[@semaj262]

Loking forward to more!

[@tgclva6751]

You should try K2 + Space Exploration in the future It's nice but takes looooong Even touching grass won't help with that

[@wandrappel]

you are hugely underrated

[@QQueTV]

I've been looking for a Krastorio 2 playthrough like this for ages! thank you for existing! also: if you want, you can set the shooting mechanics back to vanilla so you don't have to aim. the aiming just isn't fun in my opinion

[@calyndrox4969]

"I hope the later tech cards aren't extremely complicated" 😂 oh you pure innocent soul 😅 I wish I could play Krastorio again w/o knowing anything about it😇 still one of my favorite mods👍 oh and that ore/plates ratio is getting better later...way later😉

[@nemtudom5074]

15:40 Almost spit out my cereal, lmao

[@Fuck_whoever_took_my_handle]

may the algorithm be with you

[@TwstedTV]

I do agree that the mod is in desperate need of balancing. Some thing just don't make any sense. I even caught some research 2 behind a research 3 level, which is annoying af.
