S4-E29 pt 1 - Stargate Startup - Laurence Plays Factorio: Space Exploration 0.6 + Krastorio²

In a spoiler heavy video, we've now got the Stargate working and we're trying pointing it at different places to see what happens! If you're trying to avoid spoilers, jump to chapter 2 "Silly Con" where normal Factorio content will resume while I talk about imersite, mineral water and science packs.

Too many triangles, Illuminati confirmed.

[@LaurencePlays]

The secret's out!

[@DavidWesterink]

17:42 Just make sure the tank on the ship is wired in 🙂

[@LaurencePlays]

That's good advice! It does rather look like I haven't hooked it up there...

[@giantlobster]

25:10 - there were at least 3 dead batteries (or whatever non-scrap items) because the other belt was also only running on one side. The ends of the scrap belts feeding the recycling machines had also filled up with various junk. I would estimate around 20-30 items total got into that initial scrap warehouse

[@LaurencePlays]

That makes sense - I didn't think it could have jammed from a single item! I wonder what caused it - especially with Regular's uranium; could it all be from bot crashes?

[@giantlobster]

@@LaurencePlays There was the batteries being taken out of at least one of the lower trains that were being fed into the initial warehouse. Not sure how the uranium got there though, that could have been a bot crash. But I thought they were smarter about that kind of thing...

[@mdevos96]

I also see a piece of uranium ore in the left fuel belt at the scrap load station

[@LaurencePlays]

@@mdevos96 Ick... I wonder how on earth that got there! I want to blame everything on crashing bots, but I don't know if that's realistic.

[@DavidWesterink]

23:25 @gianlobster Would it be an idea to add an 300 seconds inactivity to the train, just to nudge it automatically every once in a while?

[@LaurencePlays]

In theory it shouldn't be needed... In practice, it might need that help!

[@askeladdcastus3591]

I was just searching how to eliminate bitter on vanilla game automatically. (The Factory Must Grow) Then this video pop. 🤐🤐 Should I continue ?

[@LaurencePlays]

If you're still in early game vanilla, this series might be a little overwhelming! I would probably recommend that you start from the beginning, rather than this close to the end too. It's up to you - if you want to see what heavily modded Factorio looks like, this could be a good introduction to it! In vanilla, at least, you can never eliminate the biters, you can only push them back!
