[@DoshDoshington]

Next video will be about something that isn't Factorio And on the off-chance the mod author sees this. Change the primer thrower inserters. I wanted to used them exclusively to defend my walls but they do about 100x more damage to your walls than the biters because they're allowed to throw way too close to itself. Also things like cannon shells do no damage and explosive cannon shells do half damage because there's no contact damage, only explosive when it's thrown.

Imagine you're on the ground doing maintenance on the furnaces, and you're nearby this behemoth concrete and steel pad in the middle of it all, when suddenly a train horn blares above you and you turn to see an entire locomotive falling out of the sky. Now, you're new to this factory, you were just hired to maintain it while the creator goes on to build bigger factories, so you scream in mortal terror, only to hear it hit the pad and make a deep "bwoing" sound multiple times. You aren't dead, you peek up from the ground where you dropped for cover, only to see the back end of the train flying away in a glorious parabolic arc off to its next rail section. "What the f*ck." you say, as you lay there in shock until the sound of malfunctioning machinery reminds you why you were down there in the first place.

i beat the game once. then i tend to leave either right before chemical science or right after getting utility science. the base i used was a piece of trash and took 72 hours to get it to where it was. utility science basically didn't exist and the satellite was crafted by hand

[@DuskTheBatPony]

@@FDG323 hey quick tip, try to challenge yourself with stuff, like build a nuclear reactor from 0 calculate the ratios by hand and stuff. Or go for other game modes like death world, maybe go for challenge runs like MikeHendriks does. Also mods are your best friends to keep the game fresh, my interest also dies at chemical science, but after I get over that hump the game opens up like a book, at the end of the day, think about something that you find cool and try to make it I guess, and if you don't want to grind use editors extension mod and create a lab world, that way you can blueprint stuff, and add that giga reactor blueprint as a goal to your game for example, anyhow, videos an awesome way to get inspired to do stuff.
