A tip for the tank. Driving through trees slows you down which can be a death sentence if you have a big enough herd on you.

I like the build where you make two rows of turrets, one tile gap between them, no gap between them horizontally, and the two rows offset by 1 tile. Then you can use an endless line of blue inserters zigzagging up-down-up-down to supply the entire system. But boy it uses a lot more power that way. The only advantage maybe it's pretty compact (dont need a belt)

[@toddkes5890]

And once you have the Mall/Hub, you then develop Robots. That allows you to set up Logistics chests and set up numbers in your Logistics tab of your inventory. That way when you are in range the robots will automatically carry stuff you are missing to fill your inventory, instead of you needing to run around yourself. The Robots will also try to repair stuff that is damaged and rebuild stuff that is destroyed. You then get into Robot fun: - Demanding robot support on one side of the base, and your robots are mainly on the other side of the base - Having the single Roboport be 1 tile off and thus not connecting two networks - Not putting a limit on the number of robots in the network and wondering where all your resources are going - Not having enough Roboports where your robots are working, resulting in hundreds (thousands?) of robots just waiting near a Roboport for their turn to recharge - Not realizing the power demand from Roboports and watching your base shut down during a night attack (especially if you defend your base with Laser Turrets)

Robot fun reply: - Just make more bot - Did that all the times, doesn't matters since the networks will connect *somewhere* anyway - You simply not produced enough resource, go expand your FACTORY - Well the point of bot is to not have to do stuff yourself so I'm fine with stuff being a bit low - EXPAND THE FACTORY IS THE ANSWER Also you forgot: - bot trying to fly pass a lake - they are generally very stupid, for example you paste down blueprint that have 1000 entity, you have 999 bots nearby with local supply, and instead of having one of those 999 bot build 2 thing you will have a single bot flying in from the other side of your base. So the moral of the story is, having disconnected logistic networks is actually a good thing, you can deliver stuff to the place yourself, use train, or even better yet, just use the trusted spidertron instead of relying on the logistic network to do its job.

2:27 to clarify: this is the range that the radar will immediately reveal. however, radars also reveal random chunks *muuuuuuch* farther away than this for a short period, which is also helpful as this will reveal far-away biter nests and resources. the more radars you have, the more frequently this long-distance revealing will occur and the faster you'll learn whether or not there is biters nearby. if you learn ratios between radars, solar panels, and accumulators, you can even set up little "listening posts" of radars and they will reveal tons of area for you without you even needing to go scout yourself, giving you more time to focus on other things. EDIT: also i didnt know this before but apparently this feature prioritizes unexplored/ungenerated chunks *first* so it will always scan and reveal its whole area before it starts randomly revealing distant chunks.

[@LongHaulRob]

Build your train network with expansion in mind. Early on using smaller trains is a must as trying to burn out your early local resources might do more harm then good but eventually you'll want bigger trains to reduce traffic as you increase production. In other words still treat it like a Main Bus, give yourself plenty of space to extend the length of your trains. Also nuclear fuel is worth the investment for it's acceleration bonus, pair that with a good Engine to Wagon radio and your trains will zip around like crazy. I do 1 engine for every 4 Wagons. Currently my 5k Megabase is running 1-8-1 sized trains, 4 Track network with only about 120 trains zipping around, usually 40 of them are idling waiting for cargo request.

7:21 To add detail, reactors explode when destroyed while temperature >900C, no matter the cause.

[@keamu8580]

Is there any disadvantage--other than taking up more space--to putting the reactors by themselves attached to the heat exchangers by a long heat pipe? Such that if the reactor blew up, almost nothing else would be within radius besides its fueling system.

[@l.g.2352]

@@keamu8580 Sadly heat pipes have a distance limit that is smaller than the explosion radius. The best solution is to just not let enemies get near the reactors.

[@tomasdawe9379]

Or building the reactor complex away from everything else (save it's train station and power connection)

[@underdog353777]

For anyone reading this - bear in mind that if your base is not using most of the steam, your reactors may overproduce heat and end up going critical. There are ways to prevent this with circuits that look at the steam content of your system and only fuel your reactors when it's below a certain amount - this is pretty important for making them hands off. Otherwise, I would recommend at least setting up an alarm for when it begins approaching 800 degrees. Also keep in mind, you can't stop a fuel cell once it's been used. The reactor has to burn it off. And it will continue getting heat from nearby reactors. Good luck! I recommend downloading a blueprint that addresses this.

[@Ghorda9]

@@underdog353777 these reactors don't go "critical" when they get "too hot", there is no "too hot", just wasted heat if you don't put it somewhere.

[@sirgaz8699]

Something I learned is that when you start building a factory it isn't your final factory you are building, your first factory is used to build your second factory, which is used to build your expanded factory which you use to build your actual factory.

[@XxTaiMTxX]

I have learned that you never really get to your "actual factory". You'll basically be constantly rebuilding it to keep production up. Or, rather... what you SHOULD be doing... is MOVING your factory every so often because at some point, your supply lines to resources are just "too long", which requires you mine MORE resources just to stabilize production. Many times, it's just easier to manufacture something "on site" of the patch and then use the trains to pull it in. "Oh, I can smelt all the ore when it gets back to the main base". Why would you waste space at your main base with ore that can't be used for ANYTHING except smelting down? Smelt it on site, ship it to the base. A stack of 100 plates is more efficient than a stack of 50 ore. Now, I know some players are going to be like, "But, then I gotta haul coal out to blah blah blah blah". Dude, you get Electric Furnaces. Yes, they are power hogs. But, they are far more space efficient and you really SHOULD be using nuclear power anyway. By the time you need these far off ore patches, you should have access to Nuclear Power and Electric Furnaces. Bite the bullet and build them both. You'll be far happier in the long run. Short of recipes that require raw coal to be used, it's almost always better to just crack the stuff down into oil production. Especially with how ridiculously common the stuff ends up being compared to actual oil patches. Seriously though, refine and produce your stuff at the location you're getting it from and ship the FINISHED PRODUCTS back to the "main base". There's very little reason to do otherwise. It's far more efficient that way. You'll need far fewer trains, and you won't have to move your base as often. At most, you'll need to make temporary "mini-bases" at patches of resources which can be deconstructed as the patches run out and constructed again at the next patch. I always see all these very large sprawling train networks in these videos that are just... criminally inefficient. "Oh, I bring in all my resources back to the main base and turn them into finished products there.". Why? Manufacture on site! It's better to refine your oil on site, it's better to smelt your plates on site, it's better to only bring back what you NEED. Anyway, back to the main point. Why does everyone just create more and more and more and more trains when they don't have to? Seems a weird bottleneck to engage in. You don't "add more trains" to "increase production". You shorten your supply lines to increase production. This also reduces the amount of factory sprawl you've got overall. In some cases, this can even reduce reliance on a "Main Bus". After all, "throughput" maxes out on belts. There's a maximum speed a belt will be able to transport anything. Put simply, if your trains are hauling raw resources, it better be because you've got a recipe somewhere that REQUIRES those raw resources. Bigger factory usually means "more inefficient". Scalable factories tend to approach inefficiency very quickly. You don't want scalable. You want "works up to maximum throughput" and then you design a new factory to do the same thing. Maximum efficiency is MANY SPECIALIZED factories.

[@IgnacioOrtizBofill]

​@@XxTaiMTxX I don't know man, I've added so many entries of resources to my past factories until I drone my way

[@wefsii]

@@XxTaiMTxXif u refine/process products on site wouldn’t that be harder bc u need to connect different resources like iron/coal and wouldn’t it be harder to manage pollution and biters? asking as a beginner haha

[@XxTaiMTxX]

@@wefsii I'd process "Steel" back at the main base, since as the game goes on, you're unlikely to get a coal deposit close enough to your iron production to make it worthwhile. Thankfully, you can get electric furnaces, which means you don't really need to have coal to process into steel if you don't want to... But, if you are making Steel "on site", then you've basically got a huge base right there for no reason. It's honestly easier to just smelt the ore into Iron, ship the iron back, and plug it into existing or new Steel Processing furnaces. Your "forward bases" will then be a lot smaller and you won't necessarily have to "make iron" at the main base, which means you can salvage some of that room for other stuff. As for "more pollution". Eh... I never worry about it. Some people do, but I just don't. It's cheap as crap to make ammo and ship it onto a never-ending belt that surrounds the base and feeds your guns. Or, if you have power to spare, to just mix some laser turrents in with the ammo. If biters "get out of hand", I typically just go smash up some bases nearby and then I'm cleared up for another few hours. Heck, the biters are so negligable, then I have mods on that actually make them a threat (including giving them immunities to fire, bullets, lasers, and even poison gas... as well as gives them 10 evolution levels). Makes the game a bit more interesting than their vanilla selves, which are super easy to manage and murder in vanilla.

[@wefsii]

@@XxTaiMTxX thanks for the advice!!

[@odw32]

Rules of thumb: Chain signal going IN to every crossing AND on every segment within the crossing itself, normal signal coming OUT of every crossing. Make sure that crossings are spaced at least 1 train length apart. Put productivity modules everywhere. If you can't put productivity in it, put speed in it. Don't bother with green modules, except for deathworld. Also, I personally very much dislike the main bus. Especially when playing modded games, the bus design quickly falls apart. It's a great temporary solution on your way to a rail grid in my opinion, but I also often just "spaghetti" my way towards rail & drones.

Hey Trupen, you've been on my feed with the shorties for quite a while, Nothing new for me here but you earned the sub with the 10 min video, good pacing, good/enough jokes, solid solid solid! :)

[@Templarfreak]

10:48 note that malls REALLY do not need to have _full_ input to be an effective mall. in fact, only diverting excess resources to a mall is frankly ideal. these chests will fill up surprisingly fast even if they are only working 1/10th of the time. the number of items they will produce for you will still be incredibly high pretty much no matter what. you should also definitely consider limiting the size of the chests you put the items in to only a certain number of stacks. within the first 10 or so hours of a save, unless you are *extremely* good at the game, you pretty much will not be capable of using 40 stacks of pipes or furnaces or miners or assemblers. probably belts, though, it's pretty easy to go through that many belts, and maybe inserters too. other items i would definitely suggest having be assembled in your starting malls: small electric poles (use these ALL GAME, trust me, you'll appreciate how much steel and copper they save, and it will help you passively burn through all the wood you have too :D), splitters and underground belts, steel chests, pipes, repair packs, radars, electric miners, stone/steel furnaces, and later, eventually adding on all train things.

[@mrosskne]

or you can just use transport drones and your mall will only get exactly the resources it needs

[@petermichaelgreen]

@@mrosskne Once you have bots why would you need a mall? just have the bots deliver direct to the player.

@@mrosskne i thought the reason for building a mall was to put the items you needed together in one place, but if you are using logistics bots there doesn't seem to be much point in that, just box a few up where you are producing them anyway and let the bots deliver them.

[@Templarfreak]

9:03 Main Buses are extremely useful, but from my own personal experience when i was a beginner, the volume i saw main buses have, typically of at least 4 solid belts of materials, felt kind of overwhelming to me. if you want to try doing a "main bus", dont be afraid to scale it down some from this example first. 2 belts, or hell even 1 belt, can be just fine for the first few hours of a new save, and using fewer belts can help you learn the principles of what makes a main bus a good main bus such as having easy access to it anywhere in your base and being able to expand it. as your base grows bigger, you can continue to add more belt lines to your bus. just be sure to plan that ahead of time, for example by using blueprints/ghosts, before your bus gets too crowded and you can't add new lines in easily.

[@HrHaakon]

My suggestion is to just blueprint it out and only fill a few belts in the beginning. A decent red-green base needs fewer belts than full-on-pride-flag base with seven science packs being built.

[@mrosskne]

transport drones

[@Templarfreak]

@@mrosskne Bots are personally my go-to after i start building a mega base, even though they are quite laggy, i dont totally mind, but before then i dont typically exclusively use them. i'll still have some belts going to places inside my base. even at the point that i am fully using bots, though, belts and trains for outposts are still much-preferred unless i spread like crazy so much that there are ore patches completely engulfed by my base going unused, and even then sometimes trains are still better there.

My favourite thing I learnt literally the day I hit 1000 hours in this game is that the notification saying "Number of stops with this name" is a feature, not a warning, and if you name your train stops with the same name, then the trains will load-balance between the stops. Literally a game-changer for me.

using gun turrets while wrecking biter bases is pretty much automating killing some of the biters so you can focus on placing more gun turrets to kill them it's so in spirit of factorio i didn't know dropping items inserts them into buildings (although only 1 at a time), i used ctrl+lclick/rclick for quick insert items

reactor block, then exchangers with water wells, then turbines, then tanks.

[@angrycookie6090]

It was very long way for me to learn train signals that at one moment I accepted the inevitability of train crashing. But once I learned very simple rule with intersections: place chain signal before and train signal after intersection. If you have another intersection immediately after that, place chain signal in the middle (chain-chain-train). I also recommend to look how you can make big station with signals for several trains. My life will never be the same.

Так сxуябы не провести те же 8 полос сразу к нужным фабрикам? Если бы в главную шину помещались ресурсы сразу на всю игру, я бы понял. Но 10 фабрик когов полностью высасывают красный белт листов. И превращают 2 красных белта железа в ОДНУ фабрику красных белтов. Хочешь 2, чтобы не ждать полчаса - 4 полосы досвидос. И куда ты гнал свои 8 полос, если 4 тут же свернули в 2 фабрики и вышли в сундук? И вот у тебя уже огрызок от шины. И её снова нужно наполнять. Хочешь снова 8 - начинать нужно с 12. Прошла шина по супермаркету и все 8 полос высохли. Что, снова мало? До банок даже не дошло. Ещё 8 добавляем? 20 полос? Давай сразу 100, чтобы хватило аж до фиолетовых. А на жёлтых снова спохватимся, что 100 полос не хватает, нужно 150. Хули, всю карту заставим белтами... вместо того, чтобы на месте произвести все нужные компоненты. Потому что производиться они будут цепочкой фабрик длиной как раз с твою шину. Просто вместо бесполезной шины будет производящий комплекс. Но я не против, пустыня большая, хоть 1000 полос гони в другой конец карты. Там же нет другого железа...

[@nuttyboi6645]

I agree

[@user-lg4yt5yc3c]

@@RedGallardo имхо, главная шина имеет смысл до появления дронов, дальше от неё особого смысла нет, только место занимает. Молл на дронах получается очень компактным и останется только загрузить ЖД чтобы успевать подвозить ресурсы

[@NotRexButCaesar]

2:43 You said deployed, but I think you meant depleted. Depleted means emptied or consumed, while deployed means activated or sent out.

[@Trupen]

yeah I thought it's fine, since nothing had red underscore xd

[@Lovemesomeleftytears]

I hadnt played factorio in ages only got about 56 hours now since I started again I'm just like in awe I've never been able to comprehend nor reach that point where your factory is huge and all over the place like most of this video

[@gamernibs8483]

Subtitles turned on. Best tip ever. Haha. I love your vids 😂

[@Zelinkokitsune]

Oh yea... Kevin's dead. Well he got what was coming to him. Well Lettuce Begin

[@Milkymanny]

I have nearly 1000 hours in factorio and I didn't know that turrets work like labs. This completely blew my mind.

[@Milkymanny]

And also the thing with the mall. Imagine still handcrafting everything.

[@tistelnilsson]

To few biters ;)

[@vdanee7927]

your style is super entertaining, especially the random jokes here and there :D keep up

[@Trupen]

Thanks a ton!

[@KyrickYoung]

This video is great! I've subscribed

[@silak33]

6:08 if biters equals people who are not subscribed to your channel, doesn't that mean that you placing a base defence equals you trying to prevent people subscribing to you?

[@Trupen]

...

[@holoti]

Trupen, is it true that you have 9684 hours in Factorio?

[@Trupen]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@maltardraco9555]

He easily has quadruple that.

[@bethweg]

"walking simulator from one bottleneck to another" - Haha, that got me good.

[@bethweg]

Also "when the sun goes to sleep, not like you when playing Factorio" XD I'm ded.

[@mattiaperry95]

I love these kind of videos by after a while I would like to see a proper playthrough, to actually see how one takles them in a flowing game. Its easy to say, for example, use blueprint, but how I actually USE them, not make them, but actually thinking where to put them down, thinking of where the factory will expand and all of those things that someone that have experience with the game already know/have an idea, but someone that have just started can't know, he can't know what kind of buildings he will have access to, etc... AND THAT is the part that I find most confusing. If I already knew a bit what kind of building I will have (with building i mean not only the building but also all the attached "systems" like conveyors, pipes etc) planning out the factory would be much easier. So back to the starting point, a full playthrough (obviously it does't need to be uncut, parts where we just wait to have enough resurces for something can be cutted, or like at the start where u put down furnaces and coal miners, that can be shown at the start for the first few and then cutted to show the end "blueprint" showing where the machines have been putted and explaing design choices, if there are some), would be of extremily help for new players to help them takle the various aspect/mechanic/choices of the game. At the start they will only copy what they saw, but with time, will come understanding and then they will begin to experiments on their own, now that they actually understan what they are doing, because they will be seeing an actual factory grow from start to endgame, how to takle the merging of new systems into the existing factory etc...

[@shingshongshamalama]

Protip: get the mod Fill4Me and then go into the mod settings and set the ammo fill quantity to 20 and/or 5% and then Fill4Me won't try to shove entire stacks of 200 ammo into every single turret you put down. This makes it so you can mass-place turrets without needing to manually place ammo in them afterward.

[@Winasaurus]

Poor Kevin. I hope you can recover him on the next rocket launch.

[@Trupen]

I think there is no hope for him

[@christophermccutcheon2143]

Oh that train offloading is pretty good. I usually run the two tracks from two cargo together, so i get 1 full belt from 2 cargo bays, but that one gets a full belt out of just 1 cargo. Which actually leads me to a small upgrade on current playthrough, cos i need more belts coming in but i needed to make the stations longer. With this i should be able to turn 2 belts into 4 with minimal infrastructure change

[@DarkStealth574]

Funny and usefull tutorial, thx

[@mememachine3963]

Would you call that defense mechanism the Trainsaw?

[@Trupen]

Yes

[@danielvega322]

never trust kevin

[@Hanfgurkenhasser]

Main bus? Pffft, spaghetti is where it's at! Didn't know about Z though, so I will use that from now on, thank you. :3

[@creka2897]

10:41 this is why i still watch these videos from you even tho i have enough experience in the game already XDD

[@Trupen]

this shot gets more cursed the more you look at it :)

Love ur vids rockrock. What mods would u suggest mods for a full playtrough (i already did vanilla years ago) looking for another playtrough with some mods maybe, suggestions?! :D

[@Trupen]

space exploration update hit few days ago, it's worth checking it out

[@georgecullins5939]

Nice video and entertaining as well - thanks!

who is this trupen? I was subscribed on trupen 2

Trupen: You need subtitles. Me: No, I don't think I will.

[@thecosmicapple1962]

Thank you so much for the subtitles!!!

[@Zaire82]

English _is_ too complicated. There aren't any tricks to knowing how to pronounce or spell a word, you just have to memorise each individual word. All several hundred-thousand that are used in everyday situations.

[@shpeedermern6336]

very cool video Mr. Trupen!

[@zimwitt2001]

Best camio ever... I did not expect to see Martins chaos here

[@IDontHaveAMicrowave]

Not the collab we expected but the one we needed, very good seing the frogman🐸 come back to factorio

[@mikeburgess1688]

Btw, during parts that you showed the map and there were no bug nests, is that cause you were on creative mode or something or had you just already cleared them out?

[@jarmil256]

LOL, awesome, and very funny. Subcribed

[@billybob-wx2re]

wow, i'm glad you didn't let your accent stop you from making this video. the whole 11 mins was awesome. and the accent made it even better

[@Trupen]

Wow, thank you!

[@juliendupre8704]

great video ! Is all the content we can see in your videos in the main game ? Or do you have mods installed ?

[@Trupen]

only thing from the mods was the purple trains, but basically everything in this video is vanilla only

[@anarkhos9206]

A great shortcut is ctrl+c / ctrl+x / ctrl+v. When you have drones they will just copy / move whatever set of buildings for you, you can't decently live without this.

[@Mimic_Shaco]

Maybe more ppl already asked for it but a Facrorio Playthrough from you would be so cool to see

[@pagannova3621]

i wish i had known this stuff when i started. thank you

[@dgreenbird]

the moment i heard you saying put the CC on i've subscribed, Piacere.

[@Cleaverbomb]

This was great and comprehensive

[@freiTzer]

8:38 Wooow. I love it. Time to bring freedom into your factorio world, my friend!

[@dominicbrunsmeier]

You're such a cool guy, your voice just radiating with happiness 😊.

[@TranquillShot]

Okay this was fun and educational and then Dr Frog arrived (a voice I haven't heard in a month or two) and I lost my shit, hahaha, thank you so much!
