PERSONAL CONSTRUCTION ROBOTS - Step 11: Factorio Megabase (Step-By-Step)

[@mattlewin72]

The 🤖 phase of every base is just so satisfying.

[@bt3iscrazy]

This series is amazing! Short enough to consume properly (maybe too easy to binge? :P not a bad thing.. ), interesting enough to keep my attention, and does away with the "main bus" idea everyone else absolutely requires. Thanks Nathan

[@Nathans-Sandbox]

Glad you're enjoying it;)

[@antonfranzen9343]

@bt3iscrazy what does “main bus” idea mean?

[@abeldehaan8610]

stupid big lines with ores. I like this so much more@@antonfranzen9343

[@g00gleisgayerthanaids56]

​@@antonfranzen9343The concept of a Main Bus is to put the most used and useful ingredients in a central spot to use for assembling machines. This is a good measure to combat "spaghetti factories" as it forces someone to plan a structured layout and move everything to use items from the bus. This is also a downside as there are more belts used and therefore more room for belt-buffer and everything is less compact. Taken from the factorio wiki, look it up to get a good look at some examples.

As soon as crude oil comes into the mix, every base's crafting area turns into a spaghetti junction 😅

[@TheLetterB123]

Loving the videos Nathan!

[@homka122]

You are soooo punk in this game. I usually build main bus, create a lot of metal production, create 4 belt, use a lot of space, but you....."oh belt with red plates close here, so take that"

I skipped yesterday so I could watch two at once

[@ecliipse702]

love this series man

[@User-md3ul]

Yes feeeed my addiction for more videos

Power Armor with discharge defense and the Tank is a huge step up for clearing nests.

[@Andriyshchurko]

Heck yea, robots, the part of the game when players can afford to get lazy :P I was woundering, are you planning on completing a playtrough of some of the big modpacks for the game? Something like *seablock* (making factory out of stone, water and weeds, there is a LOT of new machines and recepies and you don't really have an option of getting ore patches to mine) or *space exploration* (early game is more or less vanilla, apart from repeated SUN BEAMS OF DESTRUCTIONS and meteors. And, ofc, you can expand your factory across multiple solar systems) -unless you already played that and my brain just too melted to remember-

[@Nathans-Sandbox]

I was thinking about doing Space Exploration.

UPDATE NOTE: FILTER INSERTERS HAVE BEEN REMOVED. solution for the sultur to the sulfuric acid at the chemical plant is to put a splitter with a right side sulfur filter

[@netneo4038]

you can just filter regular inserters. Every inserter is now a filter inserter

[@wesb5899]

Hi Nathan!

[@sudhanshupokhriyal7798]

hey nathan can you provide me your blueprints if you are using and love your content specially factorio

[@ritinfek]

And a save file please!

[@akjir]

I like the series. But why use a filter inserter instead of the filter option of the splitter? The costs are nearly the same in total but don't uses energy.

[@jaxxrr]

I just wanted to know how to use the personal roboport to get the robots to construct a blueprint.. no luck I guess..

[@Nathans-Sandbox]

That would be the power armour topic. You see, this happens when you skip steps in the series.

[@jaxxrr]

@@Nathans-Sandbox who do you think watches a 20 min episode LET ALONE a whole series just to find out how to do one specific thing.. I like 99% of viewers literally ALT TABBED out of the game to search for something.. nobody binges factorio series netflix style..

@@jaxxrr Heh, actually there are people to watch the whole series. This is not a typical tutoria, u can learn from that but it is not a specified tutorial video. Have a nice day

[@MinePossu]

(skips couple of episode) oh god that factory grew huge.

[@christopherhall619]

Wait till you see it at mega base level lol

[@ritinfek]

the mod Long-reach you use doesn't work for me - I replaced it with far reach, thats working. Whats your take on that?

[@Nathans-Sandbox]

I used both mods, when it works then use the other one, should be good.

[@THEOMEGAGUY999]

Day 3 - Are you going to play KSP2 when it comes out? Also, why can't I see the original KSP series, Mount and Blade 2 Bannerlord series, Evil Genius 2 series and Stonehearth Series?

[@Nathans-Sandbox]

I will most likely. I have deleted some old series to clean up.

[@SuperSuchties]

how about focusing on the issue in the title and not doing 1000 other things
