Factorio

Every concept is a .0x revision when you play. "Hey I'm doing this where I have research modules already made!" "Oh shit my power grid takes up too much space and piping the flasks around it is taking too long" "Oh shit now I have 700 red flasks and 3 green ones, which the same research lab keeps ganking so I'm not getting simultaneous research cred" "Fuck why do I still have coal?"

Storage tanks, dump everything into tanks then flow them out of the tanks, This will allow you to build up supply prior to the peak in demand, also, underground piping 90% of the time.


For example.


Introduction

Is great for start tips and does not get too advanced to spoil that fun.

Now let us know the first time it runs you over.

I picked this game up over the weekend. It's on the way to destroying my life.

I definitely recommend it a lot. It's an interesting take on the genre.

I've been trying to keep everything solar, but shit's outta control. Two thirds of my main base is solar solution. Fuck.

I don't every use solar, fuck the day and night cycle, fuck accumulators.

I pump that coal, then solid fuel, into those burners and build steam engines hubs with 20 engines per. when i get to 80% capacity, boom 20 more engines.

I find i improve more when i stop ripping up my base and just start over with a better plan in mind. I keep refining the first 4 hours or so.

If you have not tried a sandbox game, its more fun imo. Pure Planning and building, minimal defense needed.
