Factorio Forums

That's really disappointing, I was pumped to see some of your work and have a run through with the camera on. Those showcases are really really old, you've been around a while! When were they from .8?

As for the other points, thats a long way off topic. Would love to discuss with you in another thread though

Pretty sure they're a good bit earlier than .8. Version .6.4 would be my guess.
I guess I'll have to see about getting a good factory set up, so I can show you whippersnappers how it's done :p

I'm keen! Shoot it through when you've got it done.

Thank you root! I'm very disappointed you couldn't help me. But thanks for trying! and having a go at the video.

I do believe you looked at the save before actually starting the recording though
(btw, the resources in that were default)



I could send you one of my real death worlds, But it doesn't need fixing so late in the game, know what i mean? When its so late in the game, Oughta just keep goin with it.

You have no idea how much I wanted to be able to get at least a small factory up and running . Biters 1 - Root 0

Yeah, i haven't updated this thread for a while!

I've got another one ready to be released and another two planned to be recorded. Remember, if you would like me to play your save, send it through to me!

EDIT: I've also updated the first post to include an individual link to each episode.

You switched Alphaprime's 1st and 2nd video.

Another update. Got a few more episodes out over the past two weeks. I'm really liking how this series has turned out. I'm getting quite a body of work together that really shows a lot of different aspects of factorio and most of all, how to get them right. Thank you to everyone who has participated and sent in a factorio. I couldn't have done it without you guys

Be sure to subscribe to my channel if you want updates instantly. I only post on the forums when I remember to do my videos

Also, if you have a save, send it through!

Heard you don't like trains, you up for a challenge?

This is something like my 10th setup of it.
Also, inb4 thread grave digging.

I'd be up for an attempt at fixing it, but I don't tube

-root, do this!!!

And I have no remorse to do a bit grave diggn

I've got my money on he loses track of how many reloads he does to get it right.
That, or he just deconstructs/destroys the trains

Also, I won't record it, but I can take a well-experienced whack at fixing this up. I can already see a few issues in the one shot, I'm sure there are others off-screen.

Should I mention that there's over 25 trains trapped atm?

That's a hell of a network if it ever ran smoothly.
But after one gets stuck outside the main base, they all quickly will.
Fix the routing problems, and most of the time most of them will fix themselves.

This is the only area I'm really having troubles with atm, used to have issues up at the main base but fixed that when i got rid of the circle junction I had at it's entrance.
Main issues with this is that all the ore traffic runs through it and there's a base right there.
Only other time I have issues is when the trains detour rather than wait.

There's the save for those who want a crack at it. In that is the save and a mod I wrote for my self.

Hahahaha, sweet!

I'll have a crack tonight

So I think I've got it fixed, it hasn't deadlocked after running for a while. Still doesn't run smooth but I think I've got it unable to easily deadlock. Can't wait to see what y'all come up with though.

I'm going to have a crack now live.

Watch Here

Damn I hate trains.

Dude, you missed train school 101.

You either drive on the left or you drive on the right. YOU CAN'T DO BOTH!

Verdict: its farked. only way to fix it is to reverse a portion of your train setup.

Also, your signals are whack dawg.

EDIT:

Furthermore, its a hell of a system. You have so many trains running around its on a whole new level

Two biggest problems, too many signals that are fouling up your multple junctions and the whole switch in driving direction. Apart from that, impressive. If you had kept the same system on the left as the right, you would be in a much better position.

I'm gonna take a look at it tonight, I think it can still be saved, or at least I have more time to fix it.
