Описание: This Let's Play series is over 1,000 hours of building one map into the most chaotic megabase Factorio has every seen. Playing more for the LOLs than the SPM.

Rejecting the cut and paste technique and refusing to use other players second hand blueprints a true megabase was born.


For those who don't know

Factorio is a real-time strategy and simulation game Players, as lonely engineers stranded on an alien planet, build a self-sustaining industrial empire to construct a rocket and escape.

And hopefully keep going afterwards to build a megabase ;)

Optimising a chaotic Factorio Railway
   • #224 Optimising a Chaotic Factorio Railway  


Starting with basic resource gathering, players mine iron, copper, coal, and stone. Initially manual, these tasks quickly become automated using conveyor belts, inserters, and machines. Efficient factory design is key, involving strategic placement of belts, inserters, and power sources.

Electricity management is crucial, evolving from steam power to advanced sources like solar panels and nuclear reactors. Players research new technologies, unlocking advanced machinery and defensive structures, and must produce science packs to progress.

The alien planet's native creatures, called biters (baddies), grow aggressive with increased pollution, necessitating defence measures such as turrets and walls, adding a tower defence element.

Optimisation is a core aspect, with players constantly refining factory layouts for efficiency. This trial-and-error approach rewards creativity and problem-solving.

Factorio has a strong modding community, offering mods that extend replayability and alter gameplay mechanics. Multiplayer support allows for collaborative or competitive play, enhancing the social experience. Although in this series there are no mods, vanilla all the way baby.

In short, Factorio combines strategy, simulation, and automation, appealing to those who enjoy complex problem-solving and industrial management, supported by continuous development and a vibrant modding community.
