#Factorio факторио - Hry
You can use this map string to start on the same map as I did
pastebin.com/gYkbkr7x
Did you know that the Factorio devs made a way on how to, and I quote; "get rid of all the pistols Trupen made."?
It's in the most recent Friday Facts, #375 - Quality.
trupen
Thank u!
where to paste stuff or just how to get the world pls help
@@user-tb4bv7ck2h you paste it when you are creating the world, it's on the same window as your ore richness settings.
Just finished watching Dosh's printer "guide". I respect him for his hard work and genious content, but he's "on another level of existence", as some commented. So I will watch Trupen videos that I can understand.
If you want I also have some of those "on another level of existence" videos :)
czcams.com/video/thIAhbSxbgs/video.html
@@TrupenI already watched everything on ur channel :D
Searched for any streams, but found only with Martin (W A T E R F I L L) and some VODs
Keep good, man
"On another level of existance", no, he's just smoking that good shiz.
Same
Agreed. He do be snorting some special mixture before making videos
It's nice to have one of these tutorials. Most "early game" tutorials just start out with someone building a furnace stack and then cutting to blue science and bots 2 minutes into the video.
yeah the idea for this video was to show step by step what's going on
@@Trupen Well you did really well with the video, keep up the good work!
@@TrupenMaybe you were a tad little bit too fast but other than that amazing content and videos! Im starting to love this game ill might have to pick it up as soon as when it goes on sale. :)
@@SimoneBellomonte It never goes on sale
@@Trupen Thanks a lot, this is just what I needed.
I love the idea of you making a tutorial in the form of a casual playthrough with every step explained. Definitely want it to be a series.
I don't think I will make a series out of it
the first hour is simply the most important one, the rest is just expanding the factory
you're genius trupen@@Trupen
Please do second hour trupey
@@Trupeni think you could cover every science milestone because I know that myself tend to stop during/after blue science because I didn't think ahead enough and have to make so much refactor that i'm overhelmed even with bots. Like the tips you've done with putting the factory tier two next to the factory tier one in advance. Every science pack is a new challenge like adding fluid to the mix, outpost management and multi item recipes needing smart factory layout. Getting bigger is obvious but how you do it is what we want to see !
@@Trupen "just"? dude .. that IS the game?! :P
Over 600 hours with every single achievement and I still watch this like I just started.
Cuz Trupen is fun to watch
2700, but #same. There's just something about his videos that is just so bloddy *ENJOYABLE.*
Agreed. Even if I more prefer SE or Krastorio playstyle, watching Trupen videos is just so pleasant. Also I like his "any/every language" style XD
same, yet I feel like up till blue, my runs are so slow
This guy made a base and more research progress in an hour than I did in 10 hours. Crazy how there's so much to learn. Definitely took some notes and going to watch some more guide stuff.
He also has been playing a few years. Once you play enough hours, you realize how to make things much more efficient and can start your own games very fast in Factorio.
I am new to the game 3 days in, and bro i think we dont need to get pressure over this. Like i was building smelters with that red hand to get coal from another belt and had one gap in smelters so that i can get electric current. Then realized i can just make coal and ore on one belt because coal isnt that much needed and came to the same strategy as this guy . While he is playing for years so definitely he will have better understanding of the game. Btw i watched the video to know what next after steel, because i am overwhelmed
I love that this tutorial covered *every* early-game topic:
-Resources
-Smelting
-Research
-Belt tricks
-Crafting ratios
-Throughput basics
-Defense/Offense against biters
-Science production
Amazing tutorial!
Glad to hear you like it :)
part2 pls, iam learning so much ❤
As a long term Factorio player I think every starter player should have the good fortune to find this video. This was a fantastic run through of the first hour of what can be a very confusing game to start with.
What's the point of playing the game if you're just going to copy this and not figure it out for yourself?
@@ClarkPotter with that logic, what's the point of playing if you know how to play....
@@ClarkPotteryou’ve obviously never played factorio
@@dylanb2990I mean he is right though, I am doing my first gameplay now, about 40 hours in and I havent watched any tutorials, really fun to figure out things by yourself
@@user-sl2qv1qv6e Yea I'm kinda glad I suffered a bit so I got to experience the figuring things out part, but I'm also glad I found this for improving on my garbage
my tutorial for factorio is: spawn, go to biter, kill biter, tf2 emoji, build factory
At this rate we will have 5 year publishing plan made in 3 months. Nice.
You see what we can achieve with a little bit of coke
@Trupen Like Pepsi, right? RIGHT Trupen?
An hour long tutorial for the first hour in a game 😌
Being a fan of Trupen is like saying "Just an hour" before a 12 hour marathon
Please continue this until you fire that rocket into space, i went step by step and this is enlightenening. My seed is vastly diiferent but the foundations here made my early game the best its ever been.
finding this video months later and wishing there was a follow up video for setting up pipes and stuff too
Gotta love when an announcement for an expansion reignites the curiosity of factorio for a new drove of players. I look forward to learning some new tricks from you trupen, fa tory must grow!
my first 12 hours
No worries, after you watch this video it will be your first 20 hours :)
My whole factorio life😂
2:50 aahh its Z! always drove me mad when seeing people do that and i didnt know how to do it
This video is great for beginners and experienced players alike. I've been playing since 2013 and I didn't even know you could autofil a research lab or assemblers by selecting the background of your inventory with control.
Life-changing
Yes this is a great feature
I came from the land of doc's stuff, the simplicity of copy and paste dragged me back in. I had no clue you could actually "copy" and "paste", but also FLIP, (I wish I knew that earlier lmao). Copy and paste and flip are amazing, thank you for the key guides too
For items that need repair and you want to pick them up
First select the repair kit
Then you hold the left + right mous butten
It will first repair the item and then pick it up
Would love to see a similar video but along the lines of "Your First Hour with Chemicals" or however long it would take. There was a lot of nice setups shown in this one, and I'd love to see the same for oil/chemicals.
I'm considering doing something like that
My wife and I love playing this game and your videos are a HUGE help in getting started and learning how to properly run a factory. Amazing videos. More of these tutorial type video's would be very cool to see!
This is a truly excellent guide. You walk new players through each and every aspect a player may need going into the game. If I had seen this guide at the beginning of my playtime, I can't imagine how much time it would have saved. Your content is great and I hope you continue to grow as a CZcamsr!
This has got to be my favorite tutorial video as a noob. It was so hard to understand balancing the belts properly, and how to get a mall running, but this explained it so clearly and concisely. Thank you very much!!
I just started this game the other day, played through the tutorial except I skipped the last part because it was too broad, this is a great tutorial for how the game works and functions. Super useful video.
Welcome aboard!
You are one of the reasons i replay factorio when i am bored, thank you
I'd still consider myself a noob for sure at 100+ hours but I still love these videos because there's so many early game things that I know I could be doing better for the long term, and this definitely helps.
Also a neat trick for newbies: you can salvage all the metal from your crashed spaceship and use it to craft stuff. Gives you a jump on having to mine & smelt ore from the get go.
I could totally see an April 1st version of this, where it's actually the first hour of a speedrun.
Consider that speedruns usually send a rocket soon after the first hour, that would be quite good experience for new players ;)
I'm brand new to Factorio, I spent probably 6hrs playing my first world yesterday... and it was embarrassingly inefficient and messy compared to what you have only 20 mins into the video :') Thank you so much for making shortcuts/hotkeys and basic concepts easier to understand.
As someone who gets really confused at Factorio this video definitely helped on what I should start to do.
What's the point of playing if it's all figured out for you like this? A video like this removes any point of playing the game except to see if you're able to copy someone else.
@@ClarkPotter Being stuck while nothing is working because you don't know what you've done wrong or how to fix it, while having biters kill you over and over because you're not able to efficiently craft ammunition on a big enough scale yet because you don't know how, isn't fun. Knowing how to do things like this to implement them into your own save is helpful because you can then at least have automation for the things you'll need, and go from there.
@@kye3398this right here^
@@kye3398theres a tutorial in the game for a reason
Would love to see this format for an entire playthrough, second hour in factorio and so on. Thank you!
I don't have plans for the second hour, but the whole playthrough made this way might be possible
@@Trupen we dont even need a second hour video but a playthrough were you explain what you are doing isnt a bad idea
@@Trupen It doesn't need to be a "Second hour" necessarily but something like a next step, a walkthrough of sorts on how to expand better, or what science to focus on next. I think it would be a neat idea and you are very didactic 😃 I'd be all here for it lol
@@Trupen I agree...as a brand new player (I mean i literally started a few hours ago) I didnt even view this as "a first hour" video but more as learning the meta i guess you could say. like i had know clue about those hotkeys or putting the coal miners side by side feeding one another and then clockwise. Im use to these type of games and would like to know how an expert does a play through and why they might make the decisions they make when they play.
@@Trupen actually, i wish for you to do basic defense and main bus stuff
you did a very informative playthrough yet I still get so confused on grasping the concepts. It's deff way more complex than any game i've played before. I love it.
Es increible como consumo tu contenido hace años y aun no entiendo el 90% de lo que decis, aun asi siempre me quedo con lo mas importante al menos. Buen video
Holy smokes, I watched this and 1 hour flew in minutes. Great content, stregiht to the point and I really enjoy the design. I got hooked on the game over the weekend spending like 16 hours or more and was looking just for some ways to make the base more efficient. Thanks!
This is great help. Its slower but much more informative and fun. Unlike some peoples videos shoving everything they know into 30mins, while overwhelming but somehow not explaining certain helpful things.
Why have I never thought of coal in the hotbar? 3k hours in and trupen is still teaching me stuff, very good tutorial my man!
Glad I could help!
Picking up the game atm. You opened up my eyes so much in 10 minutes the way other 2 hours videos could not do. Amazing. Thank you.
glad I could help
thank you for this! the tutorial was a bit stressful for me to go through so i struggled on understanding what was happening. i can easily look through this video if i end up getting stuck again!
Please make a continuation of this, or a video on bringing in resources via train/oil with pumps
Juat stated playing the game, you got firther in 20 mintirs than i did in 3 hours. Thank you, this video was SO helpful
Simply amazing! Just the sections of the video themselves are very helpful for newcomers
This video was amazing! I’d love follow-up videos where you keep progressing!
I wish this video never ends. Its so satisfying to watch!
Just started playing again, this helped thank you!
thank you for this. i had a pretty good idea of what to do but this really solidified those ideas and introduced new ones
Please continue this. I get to the point at the end of the video but I don’t know how to progress through blue science. Your tutorials have helped heaps so far
Get bots if you have blue science
@@Weeddemoman653 how do I make blue? After green I’m completely lost
@@greatunclekeefie First, craft a vehicle, it's faster than running. With that, you need to start exploring and find an oil field, small pink dots on the map. You'll need to research oil pumping derricks and fluid technologies, etc, then craft a derrick for each oil deposit. You'll also need a storage tank for fluids (since you can't carry them as you would other, solid objects) and a ton of pipes to transport it all.
Thank you! Fun to watch, fun to use these in Factorio.
Great tutorial, Im going to need the next hour!!
No freakin way i just bought this game yesterday and got a damn updated video about starting in factorio well, ty dude
Trupen, your videos are great. I like your mini-mall for belts and inserters. I'm gonna make similar in my new game :)
Omg FINALLY a great beginner video!!!
Bloody hell. This has blown my mind. Im new to this game struggling with the tutorial. Thought i would watch this for help..... made me realise that the old school way of slowly building this one at a time is sure as hell not the way to go I'll take the tips i can from it. And return at a later date. Sooooooo much.
Edit: just finished.... my brain is melting.
I have more stuff if you want :)
@Trupen oh trust me, ive already watched a few. Just learning.
I just came back to Factorio after a long break. This is great to see.
Thank you! You are a very good youtuber!
I just started playing factorio because a lot of people talk about how good it was, i see it and i think this game was similar to the one game that i already played called mindustry which is simpler version of this game. After i watch this video i just realise how crazily complex this game really is like damn seeing hot key on setting was like reading 100 pages book so this video help me like a lot some tips like coal loop like that really help me out a lot because for first timer like me i just follow tutorial which is a complete not ideal way to play like im struggling too keep my furnance going because i need to take a coal and distribute them to all of stuff in my base including miner for the coal (that's why coal loop was really amazing). Really don't know how i can make a base at the same time trying to defend my base from alien but i think it will be better for fist timer like me to play on peacefull mode first to fully understand the mechanic before jumping in to the real mode in this game. Really good content though one video that really help me alot understand this game better and make the game more fun and challenging.
man i wish you kept going with this video, would be nice to see this turned into a full playthrough at least up until we get construction drones to make our lives 10x easier
I dont usually comment on CZcams videos but this was the best game tutorial i watched ngl
I usually set up some turrets to fall back to and spam grenades from a jeep when I attack biter nests early game. EndgameI use the rocket launcher, artillery and the spider with rocket launcher.
so smooth and optimized
Dear @Trupen, Thank you for this insightful video. I recently started again with Factorio and I learned a lot from this video. I had the tutorial up to 5 (the trains one) and this made me start a new game. This went kinda well till the first 4 science ones (red, green, blue and black) and things went really confusing Due lack of space, bottle necks and my lack of understanding of the new concepts like trains and bots. So I have one double life line of copper ore and and a 3 belt life line of iron ore so far.
First I was glad to have solar panels and accumulators - until I realised that my steam engines work working night and day. Took me a bit to find out out to switch them on and off - rather how to implement an R/S construct with a simple components available (I missed the feedback loop).
Once that was mastered came fluid chemistry. I was told the current stage is a lot easier, but still was a challenge to connect things up and the first 2x life belts (sulphur and explosives) back to the main base were born - as I did not understand trains. I tried to create a train for solid fuel, (something) to base and steel and green circuits back, but it was mainly sponged things up and never properly worked.
Advanced fluids was okish, as I had RS-latches for heavy -> medium -> Carbon (In theory). Later I found out that 1/2 of my plants were not properly hooked up, thus not working - my RS-latch boundaries were wrong (they were setup for a single tank and now I had 5 - I wish Factorio had a % function instead of pure count - similar to accumulator ( e.g. Coal absolute and coal %).
Last thing was growing pains. Ore patches getting low, lack of base components (e.g. copper plates, green circuits, ...) and fixing things around limited space. I wished to just abandon the old base - but had no idea how to setup a new base any better - having no blue prints and lack of understanding of the new logistics network.
The game might be challenging in the beginning, if you want just lower the biters settings for more peaceful experience
@@Trupen I did turn the biters down and with everything researched except white beaker science, they are not a problem. Problem for example is I am stuck with red belts - I have lubricant on the edge and belts in the centre, but no way to get them "neat" together, as all space is taken by spaghetti. I have Long 4 row belts of Iron and Uranion feeding into the "city", because I don´t understand trains. Main belts of copper/Iron plate running dry and new spaghetti to fill them up. I have setup Uranium Mining and enrichment that I have 30 boxes of 238 and I think around 200 units of 235. But stuck on how to automate enrichment, that I don´t starve the automation. I could build a silo, but don´t know where. Growing pains of the undecided that got afraid of complexity and thus also afraid to do a fresh start.
i came back to watch the whole video , thanks a lot

views:likes ratio not good enough, do better
bro, u know what i need ?!
i need you to stay next to me holding a stick, whenever i do stupid things while playing, i get a hit
🤣🤣🤣
this is awesome, keep going
Thank you for putting in the time and effort to create these videos. I have learned a lot from them.
Thank you for the tip, I'm glad you can learn something from my videos
Are you planning to continue this? I learned a few things and would like to see how you handle oil and trains.
I'm not planning to continue it as a series, but I will make a whole playthrough like this from start to finish
25:40 - You can make the 3:2 green circuit arrays symmetric, at least. Just leave one tile gap between each pair of green circuit assemblers, centered on the middle of the center copper wire assembler. This also allows you to use 3x yellow slow inserters to input copper wire to each green circuit assembler without throwing off the ratio of input from each wire assembler by putting just two fast inserters (which tries to draw twice as much from the center wire assembler).
Dude, I've been wanting to get back into factorio. I made a new world and was like....
Huh....
So I'm so glad you are here I forgot the right way to do things
Plz continue this i love it
I have only like 50h played on factorio
And i can see now that i have to start New game i learned so mutch whit this one video
you forgot the most important step go purple
WHERES THE ROCK SOUNDEFFECT? QWQ
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Great video! Cant wait for more.
Thanks!
Thank you for the great video! I also liked the fact you explained a lot of little detals besides.
That was the goal, I'm glad it helped
I just found your channel. Thank you for all your videos.
An thus video just gave me so much to start with. I just started playing. I have so much fun. Thank you :)
Is a video planned for the midgame aspect oil management blue science automation and more?
Would be amazing !
i'm back to factorio from before patch 1.0 and i love every aspect of this video
This is puré genius!, I got a lot of fin watching this.
Hope this is a serie or something.
1:07 finally someone who pronounces "R" the way I don't have to think about what letter "aaaaar" is.
:)
Trupen widziałeś?? Masz wzmiankę w Friday Factorio Facts!!! :D Gratulacje!!! Od teraz jesteś nieśmiertelny
Thank you very much for such an extensive guide, I'm not a mega genius, but it helped me a lot, thanks to it you have opened up greater benefits for the spatial development of production, including place BRAVO you.
The tutorial I wish I had when I started playing.
Amazing! Please make part 2
Thank you very much the video is just top especially for beginners thank you very much you are doing well and try to continue good luck to you!
Thank you, I will
33:33 you kinda forget that it's OK to put stuff on the ground instead of inside a box. Thanks for the visual reminder here lol
This is the kind of video I hope all the new players brought in when the expansion drops finds.
thank you for all the great and wonderful content and I wish success for you and your friends
Chop trees. Mine is for rocks. Not wood. Love your work.
Thank you =)
I keep restarting because I mess up a design in the first hour. I’m trying to figure my own stuff out while *kinda* using this video. I’ve already learned so much.
Good luck!
Nice job Trupen
It was important to show how to expand faster. Because I go add two more drills, than go build one more smelter, than go build one more steam engine, then lab, and so on. It is a lot of walking with no plan. I got the idea that crafting excess resources is not bad (if you know how to set limit in chests)
Thx bro, really appreciate it ❤
Happy to help
My first hour (finished the game on peaceful multiple times, wanted to try with biters):
Establish mining/smelting.
Establish turrets w/ furnaces surrounding them.
Lose everything to biters
Rebuild
Get power.
Get some basic automation
lose everything to biters.
rebuild.
lose everything to biters.
rage quit.
600% starting area + expansion turned off is the way to go
Also trees help a lot when comes to pollution absorption
This tutorial is super helpful.
glad I could help
Awesome tutorial/walkthrough! (I just came across the 'Factorio Abridged' mod, a condensed version where you probably could have launched the rocket in an hour. :grin: )
thanks
I looked at that mod and ~10 researches are not enough for me to enjoy factorio.
@@Trupen
Fair enough. I *might* check it out for a lark and maybe use it to ease my wife into Factorio, but that would be about it.
One mod I *DO* find interesting is 'Sacrificial Research', where the labs consume the items needed to craft science packs, instead of the science packs, themselves. (I'm thinking that a sushi belt would be the only sane way to deal with it after a certain point.)
My first hour in factorio:
Burners spewing pollution, more than I need cos I can't be bothered waiting for plates.
Being assaulted from all angles. More burners to keep up with the iron demands of more yellow ammo automation machines and turrets.
Burner setup is sloppy but grown large and is working. It is now a lot of effort to convert the drilling from burner to electric.
Continue with burners up until I run out of black science to research and I have no choice but to re-design the infrastructure to accommodate oil.
This is such a great guide for starters. Will there be the second hour and third hour and so on. I am kinda lost when it comes to trains and other stuff. not sure how to proceed.
Thank you so much
You're welcome
Will you be making a part 2 with the transition to oil production? That is the step i just reached with my first playthrough and i am a bit lost!
If anyone else is having the problem that you cant put Items in machines wit Z its probably because its assinged to Y you can re-assing it in the settings under Controlls, Basic Interaction, and Drop Item
Wish this was a series
I must be the best kind of follower. I have thousands of hours in Factorio and yet I still watched this video anyway.
