![]() I noticed you're still using Assembly machine 2s, should upgrade those to Assembly machine 3s (assuming you have researched them). It's cheaper and simpler to build one defensive line out a ways than to turret-wall in everything that you want protected. You've got nice natural choke points with the large bodies of water there that make your northern side very defensible. Todo sort blueprints to lane respective and non lane respectiveįrightning wrote:I find it odd that you haven't taken to just shoving the biter's back to your north. Naturally, all blueprints listed here (hopefully, through community effort) will be of the smallest size possible and fit within common criteria, such always having 1 block of free space on either size of a 4-lane belt section to allow for balancers and intersections. This may or may not always be a factor, such as you may typically have very large belt buses only carrying iron ore or coal. Running this through any kind of balancing will produce significant problems for your factory. You may have a line of 4 belts with each carrying a different item. There are 2 main factors when considering which belt junction/balancer is most appropriate for your situation. If it becomes a problem, you should either route around or add a train station lol.Īnd on train stations, the adaptor is pre-placed so you can easily attach it on top of any roundabout piece without having to fiddle with finding the one with the right direction on it. This means bottlenecking is near neglible as intersections. This means 2 things, the first being it is 2 blocks short of being perfectly aligned to the world chunk grid (aw), but on the other hand it is perfectly sized to fit a 3x3 grid of perfectly spaced roboports that will tesselate over the train lines.īottlenecking on the trainline belts is inevitible, as there is only 1 belt passing through each straight section. The size of the rail pieces are based on the maximum distance between 2 large electric poles. Ideally you'll only ever have one exit open, and it will be towards the nearest train station or otherwise drop-off location. The intersections are designed in such a way that, by adding a single belt, it will direct all incoming resources coming into that intersection to leave through that chosen direction. It's rather convenient having a belt nearby that i can simply attach the output of a small mine to. ![]() Second, factorio likes to spawn tiny ore veins scattered around the map. You might be asking, whats with the belts?įirst, it gives you a massive movement speed boost, on top of the boost from concrete. A lot you can already see by the screenshots. Slightly offcenter, but it tesselates rather efficiently when used in larger builds.Ĥ-way Roundabout Intersection Blueprint: Like the previous assembler components, this one can also handle 2 max compression express belts input/output. However it is limited to half an express belt per crafting material on the input.įor items with 3 materials, you can fill the second belt with whatever it needs more of.īelt/Beacon Liquid-Component Assemblers: With some minor adjusting, you can add balancers on the outside to allow the contraption to output 2 max compressed express belts (refer: highest energy efficiency screenshot above) It will still output one fully compressed express belt. In its current design, it cannot balance the outer express belts meaning items will all land on one side of the belt. It's for items that require 3 or 4 crafting materials to make. If liquids are not required, simply remove the pipes. This design requires a balancer after one side of the express belt is reaching maximum capacity, similar to the below design. The highest energy efficiency is based on calculations as suggested later on in this thread (reference link. Similar to the furnaces, the high-throughput can also input/output 2 express belts at max compression if you build it large enough.Īnd special thanks to the Heavy Loader, now you only need 1 inserter to fill assemblers off the belts, although there is still room to add a second one to the outside if you need it. Due to how the belts are layed out, these furnaces can process 2 full expressbelts of resource and output at max compression if you build it large enough.īelt/Beacon Tier 1 Assemblers (highest throughput): īelt/Beacon Tier 1 Assemblers (highest energy efficiency):
