When you FULLY AUTOMATE mathematics...

Part 2! Beltmatic is a factory game, similar to Shapez and Factorio, but rather than automating shape or resource production, you're doing hardcore maths!

[@granatmof]

So I've played this after the last video. It speeds up once you creat assembly lines like in factorio that produce full belts. Just keep track of the outputs per source. I never fully calculated it, but since your combinators aren't limited resources, I just did 2 rows of 8. At large numbers, I'd finish off the last number before I finished the factory of the new one. There's an option in settings that let you create L shaped belt lines. Very nice to make corners while zoomed out. I finished all the achievements. Level 8 in all upgrades, maxed out all production, up to level 30 in the primary level system. 5 digit numbers get difficult, well most of them. Overall I think the sources need to be all prime numbers, or multiples of 2.

[@mwrgaming6428]

I like that there is no 10s tho

[@pydu91]

You hooked me to this game with part 1, and now I went way further than you. Thank you for the discovery! Also, remember that you can extract a whole lot of rows from one extractor, and do a whole lot of the same operation in parallel...;) (I know you already do it, but it can be pretty fast to clipboard a build of parallel adders, parallel multipliers, etc, to have directly a multiplier with 8x input rows of each and 8x outputs). Also, if you shift + scrollwheel while in paste mode, it will scroll through your recent copies, so it's easy to have copied builds for adders multipliers etc. Have a nice day!

[@BishopStars]

Shift scroll, brilliant. Do you recommend starting with an extractor template and paste it on everything?

[@air5723]

His first video also got me 😂 Now I'm 20 hours into a playthrough with level 8 everything besides level 15 belts and I feel like I've done everything I wanted to do. Got all the steam achievements. Very solid use of like $5.50

​@@BishopStarsthe joy of no resource cost to build - I have a copy of every system I've made tucked away into a corner of the map.

[@Mike__B]

Watching the inefficient use of space hurts my soul, 10:00 Since you're multiplying 4x4 there's no reason why you can't rotate those multipliers and have one belt feed both A&B, the speed of the multiplier working is much MUCH slower than the rate at which 4s come out. Then you can squeeze a ton of 16s out by doing multiple versions of that.

[@Salarost]

The thing is,the more belts you put out of a extractor doesnt make it faster and output more,so if he did it your way there would maybe be gaps,and his way looks cleaner too.

[@skylinelibertarian3835]

​@@Salarostnot one belt for all multipliers, but one belt for each multiplier.

[@Salarost]

@@skylinelibertarian3835 it still slows it down,his extraction rate was 3 or 4 belts,if you use all sides you get 12 belts so it would slow it down a bunch

[@zecuse]

@@Salarost The speed at which the operations work is MUCH slower than the speed at which the extractor can supply numbers. Case in point, I made a 27 generator by using 24 multiplications splitting 12 belts around the 3 extractor, each belt supplying 3's to the 3 * 3 multiplier and then the 3 * 9 (from the last multiplier) multiplier. The extractor is still clogged because the multipliers are too slow.

In this game I made 3 of the same factories that can make any number, but damn you did good. This was very entertaining. Your first video on this game is the reason why I bought it. It got so excited when you made a new video. 😊

[@scragar]

Much like Shapez given construction is free spacing things out is a good idea. My recommendation as always is to just start by running some belts from far out in each cardinal direction into the hub, then based resource gathering off those spokes rather than near the centre. This gives you a lot more room to work, and makes empty spots on belts a lot easier to see since they stand out on a larger scale.

[@Pernicous]

With this game is easier then shapez to saturate belts, you always just take the belt speed divided by the machine speed. So those berries you stick out could work well as guides, but you will always need a new belt to bring the numbers in.

what, you want the game to parse taylor polynomials at an arbitrary cut-off as far as precision is concerned?

Really not worth it, and most likely not even remotely fun, even if you're the kind of player who would hyperfocus on obtuse puzzles.
