1.0 Series Episode 1 - Hry
I'm new to factorio and I appreciate that you cover the basics while also respecting the intelligence of your viewers. Thank you so much for that! I'm grateful I found your stuff
Glad I could help! I try to not spoil all the fun of figuring out build!
Little too much "respect" for the viewers. Talks really fast after introducing a huge chunk of the game mechanics in this first video. The only way to truly get what is going on is to go play yourself, because he talks insanely fast using words like "this" and "that" while moving his cursor really fast with 100 moving parts on the screen. No real way to keep up unless you already know what's going on.
@@AbleAnderson shut up Ableass
@@AbleAnderson Well, if this is the very first tutorial you're gonna see without knowing the basics then perhaps it's too fast and I think some basic knowledge is needed to get it.
However I have played the game for just few hours (finished the demo from Steam learning on my own) so far so I'm at the very beginning of the path and I was able to follow easily. I have already learned quite a lot of stuff so this was really useful for me so I guess YMMV.
@@AbleAnderson I recommend playing the in game tutorial first. After that, I recommend watching one episode, doing it yourself in the game, one episode, playing the game. That way you do it yourself and use these videos to learn more tips.
This is the best paced factorio beginner guide I've ever watched
Glad to hear!
Every other tutorial:
"Step 1: Build a burner drill
Step 2: Now build the rest of the factory"
Just got it, I’m addicted, I automated red science for the first time and it took like two hours and a bunch of complicated stuff. This makes it a lot more simple. I also like the tips with the iron and coal at the beginning, especially coal feeding into each other. Makes a lot of sense!
Just started watching your beginners guide from December 2019 and saw this new one for 1.0 in recommended! How convenient. Much nicer audio here too. Cheers for the vids man
Enjoy!
Really appreciate this tutorial because it's very simple and easy to follow. So many tutorials include advanced concepts like splitters and main buses, this brings it down to a realistic level for a new player.
I just started factorio, and I have about 10hrs in the game so far. This video has been very useful and I can’t wait to watch the rest of your tutorial vids. 👍
I had given up on the game because of the steep initial learning curve. Decided to look up some tutorials on CZcams, found yours, and have been loving the game ever since. Thank you for these.
Most comprehensive guide I've seen on this. Just started playing this week, used the in game tutorial to understand the fundamentals, but was looking for a good youtube guide to learn all the neat little tricks you can do for efficiency and stuff. Most of the other guides I checked out moved a little too quickly to follow what was going on, this one was perfect for me.
Glad I could help! Try to just give you tips on how it works, and let you figure out your own meta. Try to not spoil the fun!
Good luck and the factory must grow!
Gosh, these videos have been SO helpful! I really appreciate that you just get straight to the point without extra commentary! A little fast, but so much to cover and I can always go back and watch. Great job!!
Glad I could help get you going! Just want to show all the concepts, not the best possible builds or meta or what not. That's for you to discover now that you understand the mechanics! The factory must grow!
Best recent Factorio content. Keep the good work, mate.

"I have a little bit of time in this game. A little over 4500 hours so I do play pretty quickly." If 4500 hours is a little bit of time, than you can just call me Gandalf the Grey lol. Great video!
Hehehe. 🤷It's a great game though! Hope the playthrough sessions help!
"little bit of time" lol equivalent of a literal half year
so not up to the 10k hours for a master yet, but probably alright at the game I'd imagine.
@@Barnesofthenorth If you are not incredibly good at a game having 4.5k hours (which is half a year of just playing that game 24/7) then idk what to tell you.
@@trn1446 it was a joke based around the idea that you need to have 10k hours spent doing something to be judged a master's apparently
Just got back to play more factorio with the release, and this is just what I needed. Keep up the good work.
Glad I could help! Next video should be out tomorrow!
@@zacwsh2965 🤷
This game was a lot to take in for first time playing. You definitely helped me mucho amigo! Great video and thank you!🤓👍
I am just getting back, into to this game from when it was only a few different science packs but i was completely lost. Not any more! thanks heaps!
glad I could help and welcome back!
This is the best beginner vids for factorio. Im about 2hrs new to the game so everything is going in boxes and so much micro managing and time spent pulling from boxes and loading furnaces, assembly plants and such. I was just trying to work out the belt manipulation and bam its in the first vid. Gave you a follow on twitch too. Looking forward to watching the rest and expanding my creativity or at least getting it all fully automated. These vids make me antzy to play the game. Thanks for the vids my dude
Hey glad I could help! And glad your enjoying the videos! The factory must grow!
This channel is lovely and really helpful. Also this game is a MUST HAVE. One of the best things i ever played on pc.
Just wanna say this episode (and series) has helped me so much, thank you for the videos and help!
Hey glad I could help! Any extra questions feel free to ask here or on the discord for a somewhat normally faster reply! Good luck out there fellow factorian!
I've played Factorio on and off and I always got to the point of needing to automate science and then I'd feel overwhelmed and stop playing. You've just shown that whilst it is a daunting game, if you break things down into bitesize chunks and automate things in a certain order, rather than trying to do everything at once, it is very approachable. Thank you for this video. You have earned a sub and hopefully, I can start to enjoy this great game.
Really appreciate the keycommand explanations! Like to figure stuff out myself but it's just so much and your video made it way more convenient! Left a like tysm :)
Glad! This series is aimed at people like you, who want to make it themselves. I don't show you the best ways, or the ratios, I just show you ways you could do it and show you the game mechanics ! Good luck out there engineer, and should you have any questions feel free to ask! The factory must grow!
Awesome channel by the way! What a game factorio is - I wish I could play more. such is life lol - I get so busy I'm still a beginner and I've had it a year or so. Every time I circle back to play I reference your videos because you are doing an awesome job! hats off!
Tried my first spaghetti factory blind and I feel like I've learned more in the first 5 minutes of this video than in the 30 hours I've played.
Like everybody, I'm surprised to see how efficient your tutorial is. I watched dozens of youtubers, either too complexe, or useless
Its impressive to see how often you manage to answer poping up questions, like if you read minds or if we were tchating with you...
I have good hope to finally be able to launch a rocket any soon
Thanks man, you rock!
Glad I could help! The factory must grow!
@@YamaKara 😅😅😅
Or what? 😨😨😨
Excellent tutorial! Glad I'm not the only one frustrated by the exact ratio of power, when I was first starting out and everybody kept talking about 20 boilers per pump it felt like such a stupid magic number that you just have to "know". Great job overall separating out what's customizable and fun from what's essentially necessary pre-knowledge for new players. I felt really goofy my first game when I ran coal belts to fuel all my burner inserters, only to discover they become nearly obsolete in the first 20 minutes with the electric ones! So many things like this particularly in the early game, as well as knowing what needs to be automated and what's worth just hand crafting led to a lot of frustration when I first attempted to learn Factorio. Gonna give it another shot now putting the guidance here to use. Thanks again.
Any questions let me know! Glad to help if I can!
Bro, I have played it a bit, but am still an absolute noob. But the way/pace you play and explain is perfect! It all makes sense the way you explain, I have to check other videos from you, keep up the good work!!
Keep the good work mate. Awesome content.
I picked Factorio up just yesterday after watching one to many videos from other youtubers. And after playing around for a few minutes I felt lost. This has actually helped me to understand the game better than the tutorial. Thank you.
Glad I could help! Good luck and enjoy the journey fellow engineer!
Played right along side you and ut was very helpful thanks!!
Glad I could help! The factory must grow!
Thank you so much! Excellent video and good instructions, just what I needed to break into factorio :)
Very good guide. You had me for the longest time. Thank you. I started getting lost once we got to belts. Hopefully I improve
Glad I could help! If you have any questions we do have a Discord and a pretty big Factorio oriented community who, as am I, always willing to help!
The Factory must grow!
I've started this game so many times. I'm bound and determined to finish. This is a great guide. When I first saw it, I got it for my youngest son, and he had it beat in a little over 3 days. He was 12. Navy now!
This is such a great video! I know it's couple f years old but I've been sat on the fence for factorio for a while now and is it can seem quite daunting but you make it sounds so easy. Definetly going to purchase it now when I get the chance
U just instantly became my fav ytber because of how nice you are with your viewers and also how much you re respecting them.
Glad! Have any questions or need a hand give me a shout, here to help!
@@YamaKara i actually have one! Is there a big difference between factorio 1.0 and the current version? Thank you
@@rzwrz3281 no, just a few little tweaks here and there. Can flip blueprints now, some bug fixes. But no major changes. Just more optimization.
Really relaxing to listen to you!
Thanks! Mic quality has come a long way from when I started this CZcams / Twitch thing, but glad you enjoy it!
Brilliant video, well presented and very helpful! Thankyou! Watched some of these several times! Great job!
This was great. thanks!
Great video, best beginner's guide I've seen yet.
Keep it up, just got the game and im loving the series!
Next video tomorrow! Stay tuned. I also have another video on trains if your at that point, everything you need to know to get your rail network running!
Is this a daily series? If so that’s awesome, upload some of the dead match (I think that’s what you called it) with the bitters play through, that sounded really cool!
@@DiatomicYeti I will post daily until I launch a rocket. Than, possibly a Deathworld survival playthrough guide. We shall see.
Thanks for the info about the "pick up the ghost item" feature. Now i know it and building my huge factory will be much easier with the ability to place ghosts of machines and floors.
just got the game today, at it's core it seems simple to play and get started but difficult to master and achieve what you're capable of achieving with all the tools the game lets to gain access to. Also the feeling of figuring out how to FULLY automate something or some process is really satisfying
I was thinking about buying the full game of factorio, but now I am sure to do so! Thanks a lot!
Yea no problem!Glad you decided to make the plunge! There is a newer beginner series on the channel, and the factory must grow!
I've logged a little over 1000 hours playing this and this is the first time I've learned that splitters act as filters. This is awesome!
bro l just find out copy and paste works for inserters and logistics chest
Going to check this out tomorrow! Thanks for the raid.
My pleasure! Enjoy the beginner experience! Take your time and don't use others blueprints is my suggestion!
The factory must grow!
made it to steel, got stuck,
here to learn, thanks for the vids
Hopefully this series can get you all the way to the rocket launch!
I just started playing Factorio. This guide is a great help, Thx!
Glad I could help! The factory must grow!
Looks like Im getting into Factorio late, its a great game and a great guide thanks so much!
Very well made tutorial
Congratulations
Best Factorio Tutorial on CZcams! As a bloody beginner I have only one additional trick for you. Instead of producing one/all item/s with MOUSE1/SHIFT+MOUSE1, you can just make stacks of five with MOUSE2.
It helped a lot! Thanks man
Glad! Check out the train guide if you get stuck on trains! 10 minutes and your an expert!
@@YamaKara
Amazing tutorial! Recently started playing and it has been quite overwhelming
Glad I could help! Even got a train and nuclear guide to... "Show you how it works" but certainly not the best methods!
Very helpful thanks 🙏

*Thank you, Yama Kara. I'm just starting Factorio and I appreciate this video very much. It's extremely rewatchable and all of these tips have helped me learn a lot about this game, instantly!
THANKS! BEST TUTORIAL BY FAR!
Tell me how i just bought factorio, and was watching your older video and just saw this one uploaded the day before. Nice
Yup this is a brand new series for 1.0 , should have episodes released daily until I launch that rocket
Thank you so much. Also i wanna say that ur voice is super chill.
something i like to do for the boiler array involves using the Miniloaders mod. it does take up a little more space for the entire array(25 wide rather than 23), but it gives you a much longer lasting buffer in case the fuel line runs out and you need to outpost for a new one.
the thing i do is set the array up as normal regarding the ratio and spacing for power poles, but instead of running just a belt down the middle for the boilers to draw from i run a line of iron chests and the basic miniloaders(chutes) connecting one chest to the next AND each chest to the boilers that are either side of it. this setup means that each pair of boilers has a dedicated chest full of coal that it will need to burn through before it runs out of fuel to operate. which also means that going from coal to solid fuel is as easy as emptying the chest at the end opposite the input before belting in the solid fuel.
WHY DIDN'T CZcams NOTIFY ME, THIS IS ALREADY 2 WEEKS OLD.
GREAT TO SEE MORE OF YOUR VIDEOS
Now with improved mic audio 👍
Awesome, thanks!
Started playing it first time few months ago, but it got too tiresome even though i liked the game, i found this video and started playing it again after learning all these tips here about shortcuts - its completely different game now, everything just gets done on the fly. This is very helpful
And yeah used to do 1 offshore pump for 1 boiler before :D
Each video in this series I try to give a few more tips, with each section but never tell you the "best" way, that's for you. And also I actually didn't like the game much when I first started as well. I put the game down for a few months same as you... And now i have near 6,000hrs?
Thank you so much!!!
When I first tried factorio in the tutorial, I got lost so much in the new stuff. And the most annoying thing in this is when you played a lot of minecraft and you hand goes and clicks a right click on reflex and deletes the whole chest🤣
Thank you for the tutorial!
This game exposes my inner perfectionist I think I've gotten up to automating military science 3 times and just started again because I didnt like the way I've built it
Just push past it! Push past the OCD! Join the pastafarians!
Seems like the copy, paste, deconstruction planner and the other related options require the Construction Robotics technology. From what I have found online, new players just need to only unlock it once before it is available for all future games. Additional training wheels I guess.
dude. this game is addicting. finding things out on your own is also fun which is what I did. turns out it's not the best lol
Fantastic series my man. I have played factorio for a few years now around 300-400 hours and I still enjoy it and learn alot still, my only issue is with your mouse not pointing at things correctly lol. I wonder if you use OBS, because it happens to me sometimes on it.
Episode two that didn't happen, just one for some reason. But glad you enjoyed it!
dude this. Extremely useful for noobs.
Thank god for this dude
Thanks Andromeda Galaxy bob! Also nice name !
@@YamaKara damn, you made him change it D:
@@yngfljm2277 apparently!
kuhles video, weiter soo 🥶🥶
I have watched this video like 10 times now, just to build my first furnace lol
thanks bro
The factory must grow!
Any questions we do have a community discord with lots of helpful people!
@@YamaKara I appreciate that, I just got the game and I figured I'd look up some stuff instead of flopping around too much...but like you said I wanna explore too so I wont be going full Power Overwhelming lol
I’m new as well, lots to grasp but That’s the fun
Hope this series guides you and your factory to ultimate biter domination! Any questions feel free to ask in the comments or on the discord! The factory must grow!
Sweet,
I love factorio
I need replicate what @jon said... I would like to thank you for create such kind of content. I had tried Factorio couple of times but this time is different because your guidance I can finally enjoy the game. I really appreciate your work.
oddly enough I think if things like red science and such were named more unique names it would be easier to remember recipes and things
like how civ 6 has super awesome names for diplomatic options even the ones that are just crap tiny percent boosts
Short question your UI looks different than mine do you use a ui mod? I mean the quick bar and stuff btw.
Cool tutorial
The factory must grow!
I usually only build two boilers and four steam engines max, and I find that I can research solar panels without a problem. After that I just deal with no power at night until I can get oil and research accumulators. I always leave one boiler and one steam engine in place to have an incinerator to get rid of wood and excess coal that builds up in my inventory in the early game.
thats a very interesting power setup, never heard of anyone doing that before!
I've been playing on this seed and your guide has been a huge help. One thing I've found though, is that because you have starting area on max (which I can totally understand), I haven't seen a single biter. Did you ever get attacked on this map, and how long did it take? It'd be sad to miss out on that part of the game entirely on my first playthrough!
They will always eventually attack if you build big enough. A bit of a random factor to it. Did they ever end up attacking you?
enjoy your like, Yamakara
ty
My pleasure!
And now I can understand why people say this game is addictive. The positive mental feedback from having my red science automated for the first time is immense and I rarely get that from games anymore.
One of the highest rated games on steam of all time! For good reason!
@@YamaKara I can see myself sinking literall days into it later on in the winter. Can only do about 1 to 2 hours at a time with college.
For ghost builds, is there a shortcut to filling in the buildings once you have the materials, or do you just craft one and then place it manually?
its mostly set up for either a) help you remember what you want later that you havent built b) for multiplayer to tell your friends where to build stuff or c) bots. Bots will build the ghost if you have the item in your logistics network. But mostly option C. But to answer the question, you need to craft it, than place it.
Thanks for the tutorial it was very helpful.....one thing what is ZED AND WHERE IS IT ON THE GAME??????
Zed... Zee... Its on your keyboard :P lol
Good video
noticing an issue tho, in that your mouse cursor position isn't recorded properly
Only for this video! Sorry! Issue is fixed for all other videos!
I dont have some of the icons at the bottom. Is this covered in a later video?
This guide it's good for beginners but one thing I dislike is how slow it is. I had some expirence with factorio before and I figured myself ,how to make a decent base with fully automated copper, iron and coal in 20 minutes and as soon as you can you can get rid of the burner mining drill becuse its just better to get electric ones as soon as you can but that just might be my opinion still good video !
Edit : spelling
Maybe a tad slow at the beginning, but we do launch in under 8 hours. So...not super slow! 🐌
bro made me mastermind in foctory sutff
Success!
you ever think about doing modded playthroughs like this (space exploration and angels and bobs?)
Hi I noticed you have all the cut and paste blueprint functions right from the start, how? If you are using a mod for that, what is it called?
It should be available without mods. Also there is a newer version of this for factorio 1.0 . Bottom right there is a green box for blueprints. Used for copying items. Or Q key for copying items if you hover over them. (Ie: hover over a assembler and it will place it in your hands)
how do you get the blueprint section from the start?
I saw markiplier’s videos and i really want to get this game, it looks fun
Hey bud, your cursor was offset so when you were circling around the oil in the beginning, when talking about map gens, you were circling one of the cliffs (I'm not new to factorio, i'm just looking for stuff i prob didn't already know)
Ya... thats the only video in any of my series that does that... not sure what happened there lol -_-
@@YamaKara Odd lol
thank
You!
Great video. I learned quite a bit.... but my mans. The mouse cursor was off set or something. The only problem with the video. I hope it gets fixed later in the series my man.
Ya it was just episode one it was off! (Just FYI there is a newer updated version of this series for 1.0+)
@@YamaKara yooooo!!!! That news is very pog. Once I finish the first one I'll watch the next one. Can't leave the first season I watched hanging like that
@@TheRadicalpizza ya it's a current ongoing series. New video should be out today or tomorrow, with a new episode or two each week
Ok so great vid but when I use the deconstruction plan thing it creates a Red Cross on the tree or stone… this didn’t happen on the video so I’m a bit confused on why this is happening.
The red cross means it's scheduled for the bots to deconstruct. I just hovered the planner over the trees to find the rocks and coal, but didn't actually place it down. Hope that helps!
couldnt get the burning iron drill to auto drop into furnace, right click just picks building up
Oh my god it can go straight from the miners into the furnaces I’m 15 hours in with a factory with probably 200 too many grabers cause I thought it had to go onto the ground then grabbed and put into a furnace
Graphics remind me a lot of that PC classic, 'Arcarnum'.
You don’t have to “mine” the ship pieces to get the resources from them. They are containers so you can pull resources from the same ways as any building.
You are 100% correct.
