    00:00 Did you know that in Factorio, you can use a city block design?
    00:03 Building spaghetti is the most common design for beginners.
    00:06 However if you play longer enough, you usually lean toward different designs.
    00:10 Main bus is a great solution for early game and mid game
    00:13 But it doesn’t work that good in the huge megabases.
    00:17 When you design your using blocks, you will quickly realize how easy it is to expand.
    00:22 If your base will be in need of any resource, you can just paste another block to fix it.
    00:27 It’s crazy how easy it is to reuse already build stuff for the extra production.
    00:31 This design is also very flexible, because if one block is too small
    00:35 you can simply connect a few blocks together for the extra space.
    00:39 When you are doing blueprint for a block, always set absolute snap to grid.
    00:42 It will make placing new blocks from a map view way easier.
    00:46 Just remember to design everything correctly
    00:49 otherwise you will end up with…
    This is a short Factorio tutorial or guide. You can find some useful tips for your Factorio speedrun and death world game. Advance topics like trains blueprints circuit network will be explained in a few seconds. I hope this series will work great as a trailer and review for Factorio. I will also try to keep it funny in a meme way.

    I feel like I never leave the mid-game when I'm playing with all my mods and such. So I haven't given city blocks too much of a try. Especially with mods that add later tier power poles and roboports. Though, I really *should* since it would be nice to have a train network that was less spaghetti.

    Hi Trupen,
    Really like these short condenced mini-tutorials. Though it sounds like the audio for the videos could be turned up a bit? Not sure what your peak dB is on the final videos. When I come from a different video to yours, it's always noticeably quieter. Easily fixed by turning the volume up of course, but I sometimes forget and get my ears blasted when I come back.

    People say that it’s hard to expand main buses, but once you made one bus producing all the sciences. Can’t you just copy the whole thing and make it again I mean if you are using trains to supply the ore and the oil, I don’t see why not? Why have one main bus, when you can have multiple bus ‘modules all fed by train, you don’t even need one centralized location for all the labs since you are producing every science on one bus.

    • @wumi2419
      @wumi2419 Před rokem +4

      I don't know what is the best, but I won't recommend city blocks from the start, as their purpose is megabase-scale builds, which for early game means you are either building spaghetti inside a city block or your base is very spread out, which is inefficient for early game when you don't have fast movement. Imo it's fine to have spaghetti until ~first couple rockets. Of course if you end up expanding your spaghetti, it's better to do so in a structured fashion.

    • @toddkes5890
      @toddkes5890 Před rokem +5

      The blueprint seen here is from Nilaus. His method is to use the Large Power Poles, space them out horizontally so that 4 of them are at the max distance from each other, and use that as the base. You then select all four of those poles, copy them, rotate them 90 degrees, and paste it so the end Pole of each overlaps. Repeat that for the other two sides, and you wind up with a total of 12 Large Power Poles. Inside that area, you put a total of four Roboports so their Orange building area sticks outside the Power Poles by 3 squares. This should give you complete Roboport coverage of the entire city block, and the coverage outside is just enough to connect a Roboport inside this City Block with a Roboport in another City Block. (Also put Large Power Poles to power the Roboports).
      Also put a Radar in one corner so you can keep coverage going.
      (I'd provide a link direct to Nilaus' City Block video, but I don't think it is good manners to link to someone else's videos.)
