One thing you forgot to mention is the importance of adding buffers to items being placed on the bus. (Did you know that just one stack inserter placing on the input side of a splitter can (almost) completely fill a yellow belt lane?) Here is a blueprint string for a buffer setup to test it with: 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 ...and, in case YT screws it up, you can also find it at factoriobin (dot) com (slash) post (slash) QNvPwMw- Cheers!

When I get to advanced signals, I start building out a train network, first between the oil refinery and the main bus. Unloading stations go below the bus and feed the lanes, and I add more stations as lanes run dry. Worth noting that I run 16 iron and 16 copper belts right from the start.

So handy! Some thoughts: 1. Fully compacted belts take *_exponentially_* less UPS than (uncompressed) balanced ones, so, as your base gets larger and larger, compressing belts becomes more and more important to keep your PC from cooking itself. A 'forced waterfall' such as is shown on the left at [6:57] will ensure that your belts are always compressed as much as possible. (If you are running short on supplies, that indicates you aren't providing enough resources fast enough. Temporarily turn off prioritizing on the output splitter and start focusing on producing more and/or upgrade your belts until every factory line is getting what it needs.) All that being said, an occasional lane balancer is still important, as individual lanes can get backed up to the point where they are limiting the supply of resources. 2. If you don't want to worry about underground belt length, the 'Long-Underground-Belts_fork'--from the old 'Equal Length Underground Belts' for 1.1--is *the* solution; every belt has the same length and only varies with throughput, thus allowing your bus to be 8 belts wide right from the start. Nice. 3. Certain resources are commonly needed together--like iron and copper plates--so a few pre-mixed belts will make pulling from the bus much easier down the road. Cheers!

I have found it's important to just let players spaghetti... I launched my first rocket from a spaghetti base after playing for 350 hours (not all in the same file). Tbh I had a blast making that spaghetti base. But i did it, and doing that let me reach parts of the game i hadnt reached before which helped to give vision on how i could make the base expandable in certain ways, learn about resource flow control, and also understand the key points in the game when you need stuff. So before i let myself do the spaghetti base, i would get caught up trying to plan ahead and leave space for new research, but then I'd start a new file and spend the first 8 hours setting up like 4 iron, 4 and 2 steel furnaces and then building an enormous bus, and then never make any progress cos it'd be 8 hours and i still havent reached black science. But now i build and i know where I'll need stuff later. I know how many iron/copper/steel lanes i need and when I i need them, so now i have reverted to building in my usual main bus style but it's 100x faster cos i know where I will or won't need stuff later. So just let players spaghetti... Sooner or later the spaghetti will hit a brick wall cos you need to pull more out of the factory but you're at your limit cos of bad planning. People need to experience that for themselves

That was basically my first ever game lol My idea was for items to come in from the top, assemblers would produce products and then put them on new belts to their sides. It was somehow less spaghetti, but still worse due to a lack of expandability and the sheer mess it created. Imagine a standard main bus but all the assemblers are straight through the bus instead of to the side. That was my first game. I did slowly refine the design until I ended up with something resembeling a classic main bus. With crafting on one side and oil + more smelting on the right side.

I just launched my first rocket in my first factory after 25 hours. I feel so proud of finally tackling this game (been sitting in my library for months) and actually progressing this far without watching tutorials. A lot of Factorio tutorials are infamous for being bad at giving you a good idea of what you're really doing as a beginner so I avoided them because watching tutorials that assume you know too many things or progress too fast is very demotivating for me. Now I'm finally watching these tutorials because I got tired of watching my spaghetti base, even though it worked, it sucked not knowing just HOW to make it modular or expandable, once I unlocked most blue science technologies I tore it all down and I'm now in the process of moving it all to much larger ore patches. The ones I started out with only had 500k ore and I dried them all up. Amazing tutorial, when I rebuild my factory at the new ore patches I'm definitely going to be using the advice in this video. My biggest issue as a new player was figuring out how to route my assemblers. I tried to make a bus but ended up making mistakes like placing assemblers too far away from assemblers next in line that needed the previous ones products. A lot of spaghetti ensued.

Played twice without a main bus and didn't finish, first time I tried it I went all the way to the end. Its really worth it honestly, it helps so much in making you build things simple by having all you need in one area constantly. Edit: 6:07 ahhh now THAT is what I have been looking for, thanks Trupen! To be honest when I tried out space exploration mod for some reason I decided to put every single intermediate product onto this massive gigantic bus that had nearly every item in the game on it to craft with, only to realise you can't even shoot most of them with the cannons anyway and I realised what a large waste of time I had done as it was very unbalanced xD

You can stage your bus for different "levels" of recepies. For example, raw stone used directly not very offten, so there is little sense to put it on the bus and stretch it to the point where you turn it into rails and concrete. You can always designate some empty space for those assemblers in the begining and wave some spaghetti back.

For building the main bus, I HIGHLY suggest ALLOTING space for 8 lanes of the main resources (iron and copper, even if you START with only 4 lanes from the supply area. This enables you to UPGRADE your bus later... just make sure you keep track of which direction you've alloted for the expansion of the main resources. Alternatively, you can reserve space midway into the factory deesign (on either side of the bus) for INSERTION balancing. this TOPS up buses that maybe have fewer lanees devoted to a resource that get partially depleted earlier on in the bus, but you do not want to devote extra lanes for (for the entire length of the bus).

I like the first load balancer approach. What I often do is prioritize the basics (gears and wires) and the further the belt goes along the more complex the things I make, occasionally adding another assembly line for basic items like gears so the lanes won't get starved. Only issue is I have to use 20 red belt lines just for 1k red and green science production at 1k spm (also at x100 research cost because I like playing the long game though I use nanobot mod)

I've personally abandoned the main bus concept, myself. It requires too much planning and forethought that wastes more of my time and energy playing the game than I actually spend on playing the game. It also tends to require a LOT of contiguous space that I can't always find for it, as well. I've started moving towards using trains as my primary resource delivery system, and then a sort of mini-bus for the shopping mall. With trains, I can put manufacturing wherever I want to or wherever there's space, and then trains can just bring the input resources in and ship the output resources out to wherever they're needed.

I prefer not balancing the main bus because building an efficient factory is all about handling bottlenecks. As the first assembling areas provide things for the next ones, if you don't feed them to their max capacity, they become the bottleneck. Givining them the max input possible ensures their output is saturated by what consumes it, i.e. back pressure. If your bus is not capable of providing to the last assembling areas, then your bus is the bottleneck, and it's time to upgrade it. Note that I haven't played in a while.

In a real factory a pull system is generally recognised as the most efficient for product, equipment and parts, and highly generalised utilities are fed on a main bus (electricity, water, compressed air etc.). For a pull system you create a desired output at the desired rate, utilising the equipment as much as possible and then feed it just enough material to satisfy that. So just as many assemblers as you need getting fed only slightly faster than the consumption rate. I do this by incrementally adding inserters until the supply units tick over just in time before the next cycle starts. Then I feed the supply belt with an equal amount of the same type of inserter. The inserter should be fully utilised with minimum overflow. The belt should back up but as slowly as possible. It's probably not best for the game but I'm a process engineer by trade and I've been trying to implement lean manufacturing in my production lines while learning the game. For example inventory doesn't really have a high cost in this game from what I can see but has a very high cost in real life. So I avoid chests, or belts that just sit there fully stacked up without moving. Anyway I was thinking maybe someone who's very familiar with the game and not familiar with the Toyota production method (the opposite of me) could have a lot of fun reading it and trying to apply it in situations like the one you mention.
@Maurus200
@Maurus200 15 күн бұрын
Belt balancers are nice when you need to split resources equally. Train loading for example. They are worthless on a bus. After you pull off the bus you need to compress all the materials toward the line you use to pull from. That way you are always getting maximum efficiency from your pulls. In the example given around 6 minutes or so the compression step was done prior to the pull which is incorrect. If you run dry that means you need to inject more lines of that material.

My friends insist that every space in our factory must be covered by roboports so after that playthrough I just put three spaces between the belts by instinct. Really helps though if you want to snake something through the belts temporarily

I don't place sulfur on the the bus, because it can be made where it is needed with just one or two plants and with just liquid inputs. Gears on the bus have some merit, because they need less space than the iron place they are made of, but they only need iron to make and almost everything that needs gears also needs iron, so you can just place another iron belt instead. As for liquids, I place water, petroleum, light oil and lubricant, since we have established 4 is a good number. Water is used in many recipes and so is petroleum. Sulfuric acid can be made from water, petroleum and iron, so I don't put it on the bus. The only thing heavy oil is used for is lubricant, so I might as well put the lubricant on the bus. Light oil is used to make train fuel, rocket parts and is great for flamethrowers, so it goes on the bus as well.

@UnknownSquid

For maximum "fun", play with multiple other people and all agree that any form of bus or organised city blocks are totally banned. No long term planning allowed. Just build in the moment. Just build an expansive spaghetti hive, run trains through it all, have products coming in and out from god knows where. There are no dedicated defensive lines or exclusion perimeter for the base, only rampant module dependency pollution with scattered turrets and bunkers just mixed in among everything else. No room to expand your blue science? Just build a fifth base. Just keep hitting it and adding stuff until it "works". It's pure pain, but somehow inevitably creates beautifully chaotic works of art.

Tyvm Trupen, you used the same phrase that the FM of Germany, what the former Trampoline Olympian Annalena Baerbock said without satire, turning around was 360 degrees. You'd think as a bouncy lady doing silly things _on a trampoline,_ (not how she got her job bouncing on something else) would learn the difference between 180° and 360°. Thanks for the levity, cause I'm overcoming a little Factorio PTSD, but I will not allow that to stop me from achieving my goals. (no /jk) The first issue at least for me is like in the US when they destroyed all the great communities and schools by bussing, but in Factorio, I think it will be great until I understand City Blocks... (your next video in my queue!) Oh, wait, you have a whole playlist! Bbye leisure time, hello Trupen Factorio College!

Your smelting beacons are aligned with the furnaces, making them less effective. Move them one to the left or the right. Personally I prefer the priority splitter approach. If I don't have enough resources, I need to add resources. Consider adding a part about resupplying the bus in the middle.

IMHO red chips, blue chips & low density should have dedicated copper, and dedicated circuit assemblers. Using trains to balance the ore or plates. Plastic should also be made just in time, as one belt of coal can make 2 belts of plastic, saving space in the bus. If you build your crafting on one side of the bus, you can then build rail stations on the other side to bring in more plates directly where they are needed.
@DRY411S
@DRY411S 10 ай бұрын
Yep. Green and red chips are such copper hogs, and blue chips are such green chip hogs that you can narrow the number of lanes needed for copper and green (and red) chips once you've just got past the blue chip area. No point in buffering all that plate and chips that the rest of the factory cannot consume in the amounts that are sat there doing nothing.

7:22 Trupen, come on, you don't have to put an output priority to the splitter sending the materials from the bus to the crafting area. That's just silly I don't know who taught you that. You only put output priorities on the splitters on the bus itself, and you put them AFTER the extraction splitter in the exact other order you put them in. If you do it right, the priority method is much better than the 4x4 balanced solution. Assume 4 belts of a material, belt 1 is the one you always take away from, belt 4 is the one furthest away from that. After the normal splitter that moves material to the crafting area, put a splitter on belt 1 & 2 with output priority to 1, then a splitter on belt 2 & 3 with priority to 2 and lastly a splitter on belt 3&4 with priority to 3. That way, belt 1 will always be filled to the max, no matter how far down the bus you go (unless you use up all 4 belts of material, of course, but that's an issue for both designs). Nothing like "the first crafting area gets all the material" nonesense.
