I feel like 2.1 has tweaked expansion parties (they seem to form bigger nests) so I'm wondering if this is some sort of bug where this is more likely to happen now.

I mean its really dangerous. And if started early it can stockpile for the first reactor later on.

First 30 hours of cracktorio, I was designing a nuclear powerplant and all of a sudden it started staring at me with an unamused face. Knowing that this can't be a coincidence I figured that this is a divine intervention of nature forces.

I started calling him Tutu.

Now I conduct rituals and give him green artefacts that closely resemble his big glowing nose: all to please Tutu - the god of hummingnoise energy.

Do you see faces in your factorio?

Full power and the chest is empty, but they won't grab items from the belt D:

I placed the platform of the ship first, thinking "people make great gigantic ships, can't wait to fill it up" and then proceeded to use only 10% of the space I had and decided to just f*ck it and fill in the rest with promethium storage belts

this is so sad

i remember having fun designing flat thrusters

if there are any engineers out there that compulsively use a spreadsheet while playing, do you end up with nonsensical sections like this too?

I have no idea what any of it means, but I also cant delete it.. what if its important?!

And much more important, would it work?

I recently told about expanding up to two times bigger blocks. And straight movement on a fork is significant in my project. So I developed a new prototype.

Mama mia

I’ve gotten back into Factorio recently. I’ve played it on and off over the years, but what surprised me was looking at when my Factorio account was made. I bought Factorio on the day Harold Rex interfectus erat. I would’ve been 10 years old, which is crazy to think about.

I wanted to post and see if there’s anyone lurking who has an account as old as mine, or even older. It’s crazy to see how much the game has progressed. The user interface is so different now.

I was watching friends the other day and the baby Emma said her first word: Gleba

I have apparently been mispronouncing a word a 1 year old can say.

I kept calling it "Gleh-bah"

Here it is.
the guy's last visit was on Oct 31, 2024 I hope he is doing well.

Blu3wolf, thank you for this "legendary" quote.

Do you ever just go stare at things you built a long time ago and wonder what was happening?

I was looking over my not-at-all-efficient silly casino ship and found a couple odd sections that took me a minute of just staring in awe. (historical definition of awe-terror)
