As you accumulate hours, you don't make less mistakes, your mistakes just become bigger and more complicated.

Hey guys, we're trying to build the next-gen gaming server host, where people would pay by-the-hour, instead of monthly, to save on costs.

We're in public beta, and we'd happily host your Factorio games, if you'd like to play with your friends, family and team, in exchange for feedback on reliability and service as a whole.

Just let me know if you're interested, and I'll assign you your credits.

Your feedback would be invaluable to us!

(Minecraft players welcome as well)

Been bored with it, need something fresh. I have space age.

Played krastorio back in the 1.0 days, loved it. Mostly love train world settings.

Finished my first Space Age run. I capped it off by designing a "mega ship" (pictured). I'm pretty happy to end the game off here at least for the foreseeable future.

Some interesting things about my run:

• 206h.
• 0 trains built. I determined from my base game run a while back that I did not like the trains in the game so I decided to go against the grain and play completely train free. It wasn't that bad actually.
• Was able to get legendary everything basically.
• Able to maintain 40k spm. (Tested over 1 hour)
• Decided to embrace the spaghetti. I tried to jump into my builds with as little planning as possible. No city blocks. No concrete paths. No trains. Only spaghetti.

Patrolling Spidertrons and hiding elevated stuff is such a good qol.
Obligatory RIP space casinos

Just asking, because I'm sitting here with modded factorio, and I'm waiting for some handcrafting to finish.

Sure, some of the intermediaries cannot be handcrafted, such as plastic and blue chips, so we'll say those are allowed.

Power armor mk2, probably? Anyone tried it to see how much time it takes?

Also, does the equation change if you have to handcraft any ingredients that go into an assembler to make the non-handcraftable ones?

I just needed 3 achievements "Keeping your hands clean", and the 2 speed running achievements.

Finally got them all in the same run with 5 hours to spare.

This seems neat.

From the engineers who brought you The Deliverator, the geniuses behind the Chesterizer, Omni-Tech is back again with a fantastic new product! Do you ever look at your spaceship and think "My goodness lookit the girth of that thing it's horrible"? Did you buy one of our fantastic Deliverators but used it wrong and it blew up mid transit? Do you look at the stars and wonder maybe, just maybe, there's a faster way to get from one place to the next? Well wonder no more because The Prickler is here!

• Does it got length? Yes in spades!
• What about speed? A problematic amount!
• Blinky Lights? Who the fuck do you think we are of course it's got Blinky Lights!

But wait! You ask, This thing weighs like twice as much as The Deliverator Slim, how ever will I maneuver it well?? Well have I got news for you: Twice the weight but up to TEN times the thrust! Not to mention the newly designed ammotorium so you never need to take a break again!
