      One thing you forgot to mention is the importance of adding buffers to items being placed on the bus. (Did you know that just one stack inserter placing on the input side of a splitter can (almost) completely fill a yellow belt lane?)
      Here is a blueprint string for a buffer setup to test it with: 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

    You can stage your bus for different "levels" of recepies. For example, raw stone used directly not very offten, so there is little sense to put it on the bus and stretch it to the point where you turn it into rails and concrete. You can always designate some empty space for those assemblers in the begining and wave some spaghetti back.

    @rhueoflandorin Před 5 měsíci +3

    For building the main bus, I HIGHLY suggest ALLOTING space for 8 lanes of the main resources (iron and copper, even if you START with only 4 lanes from the supply area. This enables you to UPGRADE your bus later... just make sure you keep track of which direction you've alloted for the expansion of the main resources. Alternatively, you can reserve space midway into the factory deesign (on either side of the bus) for INSERTION balancing. this TOPS up buses that maybe have fewer lanees devoted to a resource that get partially depleted earlier on in the bus, but you do not want to devote extra lanes for (for the entire length of the bus).

    I've personally abandoned the main bus concept, myself. It requires too much planning and forethought that wastes more of my time and energy playing the game than I actually spend on playing the game. It also tends to require a LOT of contiguous space that I can't always find for it, as well. I've started moving towards using trains as my primary resource delivery system, and then a sort of mini-bus for the shopping mall. With trains, I can put manufacturing wherever I want to or wherever there's space, and then trains can just bring the input resources in and ship the output resources out to wherever they're needed.

    7:22 Trupen, come on, you don't have to put an output priority to the splitter sending the materials from the bus to the crafting area. That's just silly I don't know who taught you that. You only put output priorities on the splitters on the bus itself, and you put them AFTER the extraction splitter in the exact other order you put them in. If you do it right, the priority method is much better than the 4x4 balanced solution.
    Assume 4 belts of a material, belt 1 is the one you always take away from, belt 4 is the one furthest away from that. After the normal splitter that moves material to the crafting area, put a splitter on belt 1 & 2 with output priority to 1, then a splitter on belt 2 & 3 with priority to 2 and lastly a splitter on belt 3&4 with priority to 3.
    That way, belt 1 will always be filled to the max, no matter how far down the bus you go (unless you use up all 4 belts of material, of course, but that's an issue for both designs). Nothing like "the first crafting area gets all the material" nonesense.

  • @DidierLoiseau
    @DidierLoiseau Před 5 měsíci +2

    I prefer not balancing the main bus because building an efficient factory is all about handling bottlenecks. As the first assembling areas provide things for the next ones, if you don't feed them to their max capacity, they become the bottleneck.
    Givining them the max input possible ensures their output is saturated by what consumes it, i.e. back pressure.
    If your bus is not capable of providing to the last assembling areas, then your bus is the bottleneck, and it's time to upgrade it.
    Note that I haven't played in a while.

    • @schwarzerritter5724
      @schwarzerritter5724 Před 4 měsíci

      Yeah, the lower level assemblers are usually the most important ones. Locomotives, mining drills or power lines are usually produces at the start of the bus. If you have a shortage, you don't want your few plates to go to the blue circuits.

  • @schwarzerritter5724
    @schwarzerritter5724 Před 4 měsíci

    I don't place sulfur on the the bus, because it can be made where it is needed with just one or two plants and with just liquid inputs.
    Gears on the bus have some merit, because they need less space than the iron place they are made of, but they only need iron to make and almost everything that needs gears also needs iron, so you can just place another iron belt instead.
    As for liquids, I place water, petroleum, light oil and lubricant, since we have established 4 is a good number.
    Water is used in many recipes and so is petroleum. Sulfuric acid can be made from water, petroleum and iron, so I don't put it on the bus. The only thing heavy oil is used for is lubricant, so I might as well put the lubricant on the bus. Light oil is used to make train fuel, rocket parts and is great for flamethrowers, so it goes on the bus as well.

    I have found it's important to just let players spaghetti... I launched my first rocket from a spaghetti base after playing for 350 hours (not all in the same file). Tbh I had a blast making that spaghetti base. But i did it, and doing that let me reach parts of the game i hadnt reached before which helped to give vision on how i could make the base expandable in certain ways, learn about resource flow control, and also understand the key points in the game when you need stuff. So before i let myself do the spaghetti base, i would get caught up trying to plan ahead and leave space for new research, but then I'd start a new file and spend the first 8 hours setting up like 4 iron, 4 and 2 steel furnaces and then building an enormous bus, and then never make any progress cos it'd be 8 hours and i still havent reached black science. But now i build and i know where I'll need stuff later. I know how many iron/copper/steel lanes i need and when I i need them, so now i have reverted to building in my usual main bus style but it's 100x faster cos i know where I will or won't need stuff later.
    So just let players spaghetti... Sooner or later the spaghetti will hit a brick wall cos you need to pull more out of the factory but you're at your limit cos of bad planning. People need to experience that for themselves

      Change the focus or goal of your game. The goal is not to launch X amount of rockets. The goal is to build your own blueprint library that fits your playstyle and is optimized by you. Try no to copy blueprints from the web, just get some ideas, otherwise is like cheating. Really, try to make your own custom designs, after yoy have completed your own blueprint library, the feeling is just amazing.

    Have you thought about trying to achieve the "Finisterra" achievement? It's "simple", technically the map is finite (although as big as Australia), so you have to get to the edge.
    An estimate I have heard is that a train from the center of the map to the edge would take 4 hours to make the trip.

    Its really worth it honestly, it helps so much in making you build things simple by having all you need in one area constantly.
    Edit: 6:07 ahhh now THAT is what I have been looking for, thanks Trupen! To be honest when I tried out space exploration mod for some reason I decided to put every single intermediate product onto this massive gigantic bus that had nearly every item in the game on it to craft with, only to realise you can't even shoot most of them with the cannons anyway and I realised what a large waste of time I had done as it was very unbalanced xD

  • @jeremylakeman
    @jeremylakeman Před 5 měsíci +1

    IMHO red chips, blue chips & low density should have dedicated copper, and dedicated circuit assemblers. Using trains to balance the ore or plates. Plastic should also be made just in time, as one belt of coal can make 2 belts of plastic, saving space in the bus. If you build your crafting on one side of the bus, you can then build rail stations on the other side to bring in more plates directly where they are needed.

    • @DRY411S
      @DRY411S Před 2 měsíci

      Yep. Green and red chips are such copper hogs, and blue chips are such green chip hogs that you can narrow the number of lanes needed for copper and green (and red) chips once you've just got past the blue chip area. No point in buffering all that plate and chips that the rest of the factory cannot consume in the amounts that are sat there doing nothing.

    @RealCadde Před 5 měsíci +3

    There's a huge downside to having a main bus.
    You spend a lot of time splitting and merging into the bus. And you always end up with a deficit or excess on the bus, both are a waste of resources and building fatigue.
    Sometimes it's better to specialize in a certain output from raw(er) materials in outposts, without necessarily going into spaghetti.
    And you start doing that when you have trains, which you can get to rather quickly in vanilla factorio so there's really no point in making a super fleshed out main bus until you've also research railroads.
    And then, there will be many smaller main buses for the bigger outposts. Where MANY trains feed raw resources into the outpost and fewer trains take the very compressed outputs of those outposts and they all converge into another outpost that makes even more advanced items.
    In summary, make smaller and more specialized buses in outposts design for mass production of much higher end items. Don't split off iron plates from the main bus to make gears and then putting them back on the bus. Instead take iron plates and make gears into engine units and then two thirds of those engine units electric engine units. The raw resources going into that outpost will be Iron Plates, Copper Plates and Lubricant. The output is Engine Units which you feed into your science outpost and Electric Engine Units which are fed into your Flying Robot Frame outpost.
    And once you get construction robots, it's better to make iron plates and their direct descendants at the iron ore patch instead of feeding raw iron ore into a central smelter array.
    But not before you get construction robots!
    Then you can strip out the making of gears and steel at the engine unit outpost, which reduces the amount of stuff you have to transport by A LOT.
    2 Iron plates becomes one iron gear, so that's a 2:1 reduction. 5 Iron plates becomes one steel plate so that's a 5:1 reduction.
    Overall, you'll be shipping 1/6th the number of iron plates around.
    In fact, i hate main buses with a passion as the amount of extra work you put into making one could just as well be spend rushing science for railroads and construction bots and then you can make nice outposts and also reduce the amount of stuff you need to transport by doing the most of the processing closer to ore fields.
    Another downside to main buses is that your base tends to be needlessly MASSIVE. Which means you are setting up base defenses for a HUGE area just so you can have some nicely defined spacings between your production sectors around your main bus.
    If you make outposts instead, you will make compact built to purpose production facilities and have a tight wall around that facility for protection. Your defenses become tighter and more efficient.
