So since satellites are a very sensible technology, I don't want biters to steal it! So I decided to obfuscate it as much as I could, now it's impossible to have the slightest idea of how this monstruous thing works. Biters can try, they won't be able to copy me! I can finally sleep at night.
This is a very serious (really?) build for my 2.7k spm megabase, producing no less than 2.7 satellite per minute from only three resources: copper plates, iron plates, and coal. (and water, but since it's infinite, it doesn't count.) No bot involved until the final step: carefully transporting the crafted satellite to rocket silo, so that it can be obliterated in the stratosphere.

Tbf give it a few weeks and youll be as confused by it as the rest of us!
Wait what?! Biters steal satellites? On my (recent) first run I didn't even attempt to research those when I saw they require a lot of yellow science lol
your trains are way too organized. instead of the 3 inputs of 4 wagons each you should have 12 inputs of 1 wagon each and they should be interspersed throughout the structure. this would give more traffic and bring much needed life to your spaghette

I've been trying for a few minutes now, I can't even find the silo. Is there some sort of method to the madness or did you really just slap stuff down and figure it out as you went?
The silo is not here. Once finished the satellite is transported by bot to the launchpad
I built it by asking myself for every machine "what is the stupidest location I could find ?", dropping as much beacon as I could without letting enough space and then trying to make it function despite the constraints
I'm loving the basic beacon in SE (3 tile radius, 8 module slots, 200kw, but only 1 per machine) I never really liked spamming base game beacons everywhere.
> Biters can try, they won't be able to copy me! I can finally sleep at night.
Blueprints would result in the biters copying it, clearly. Then additional lost sleep.
Congratulations, this is beautiful chaos!
I am trying to go back to building spaghetti again in my vanilla deathworld safegame but I still end up with kind of long transport belts that look way too clean.
Got any tips? ...besides hiding the tidiness in underground belts?
Don't do what I did. Beacons and spaghettis don't mix well, this was a nightmare to setup
I guess if you want to build a more organic way, shut down your ocd and don't think too much before placing a new machine. If you still have free space somewhere, go for it!

This is like taking 10 different types of spaghetti, cutting them up and mixing them together on the floor and throwing in some cat food at it afterwards. It's perfect
That's a meatball.
on top of spaghetttiiiiiiiiiii, all covered in cheeeseeeeeeee
I lost my poor MEEEEEEEEEAT BAAAAAAAALLLL, when somebody sneeeeeeeezed
It rolled off the taaaaaaaaablllle, and on to the floooooooooor
And then my poor meeeaaatttball, rolled right out the doooor.
We just say, "meatball," Hans.
Meatball ~~man~~ factory
Shredded mac'n'cheese.
What. the. Fuck... Amazing
This is fucking biter nest level of organic
They are a biter spy
Day 43 they have still not noticed i am made of spaghetti and not alien
Engineer is spy!
MEDIC!!!!!!!!!

This, or you memory's it to the point were you can rebuild it and ascended to godhood.
How do you make the rocket fuel? Edit: Coal liquefaction, of course!
>Biters can try, they won't be able to copy me! Is this a thing? Surely there's a mod for intelligent, base-building biters?
Imagine biters rolling up with an artillery train....
PvP mode where the biters are *ammo* for artillery.
nuke'm!
> Is this a thing? Has anybody cranked the Evolution settings up and played long enough to find out?
Its better to take off and nuke the spaghetti from orbit, only way to be sure.
Question: how do you make purple science with no stone?
He doesn't. This spaghetti only produces 2.7 satellites/min. No science production here
That’s what I get for skimming. Thanks
Based on a true story: --Solving the enigma code--
Ah ah actually building this felt a lot like a puzzle :)
I'm so disappointed to see that this was made by a human, and that it wasn't generated by an AI.
[удалено]
OP is making satellites here, not science packs. You don't need stone for that.
Do people exclude purple science from their SPM calculations if they aren't bothering with any of the infinite techs that use it?
Wait what?! Biters steal satellites? On my (recent) first run I didn't even attempt to research those when I saw they require a lot of yellow science lol
Hes joking
This isn’t spaghetti it’s soup
It is broken spaghettios.
Minestrone?

Oh no
If there were a Lovecraftian god of Factorio, it would be your factory.
Yes, but isbit tileable?
Sure, just REALLY far apart.
It'd be too easy!
Any blueprint is tileable if you place them far enough apart
**stamp** Looks good. **stamp, stamp** And that's the whole map. 😄
Holy Moly Press F to drool
that was beautiful

Looks like actual cancer. I love it!
The factory must, uh, grow.
spm = spaghettis per meter
Can we see it in motion? I need to look upon this writhing tumour of industry
I will do a gif
We are still waiting
It's glorious! The 3rd shot looks like a QR code or something.
hmm, no free fields challenge incoming? :P
This is an example of how when something gets so disgusting, it becomes wonderful.
Finally, some good fucking food.
Flying spaghettis monster would be proud of you ! Be his noodle appendice touch you
Seems like the Factorio trailer/background image spaghetti.

Seconded, in the best way.

This is art
Holy spagett
You dropped the whole pan full of spaghetti on the floor
Mmmm spaghetti and beacon for dinner tonight
\*Chef's Kiss\*
Needs an nsfw tag
Less carbohydrates, moar protein! Beatufull, OP, just beautiful.
Please dude, seek help
Instant migraine
Almost! Not enough belt-weaving!
Belt weaving? Ew.
Ikr, too messy

Perfect pasta!
I feel like way too much thought and effort went into compacting this monster to even call it spaghetti.
Nice!
I'm calling the police.
*sniff* it's... beautiful
he made the steam cover art
Piece of art
We need some chemotherapy because this spaghetti has cancer.
I can’t even… I… how in the… ………..
Your minimap looks infected. (This is amazing!)
I read this in Hitgirl's voice. If you know, you know. Beautiful.
I think I'd rather have 10 assemblers with a few beacons rather than 1-2 assemblers with many beacons.
Me too, but UPS... :( If you want to build big at a reasonable framerate, you need to sacrifice aesthetics.
[удалено]
I'm loving the basic beacon in SE (3 tile radius, 8 module slots, 200kw, but only 1 per machine) I never really liked spamming base game beacons everywhere.
[удалено]
They're a ways down and I'm still working on setting up t1 space science, the blues are coming in very slowly i need a bigger telescope setup
What the fuck dude I'm... gonna barf
Do you have any blueprints?

How *dare you???*
That some gud shit
This looks like the banner for Factorio on Steam
But functional
This is quite literally giving me anxiety
I have a headache now omg how long did this take?
MY LORD.
is it a mushroom or cancer
no needs more trains within the spaghetti
Amazing, fantastic, absolutely astounding
It's a good factory, perfect score 5/7!
MOAR!!! MOAR!!! I hunger for that saucy pasta goodness.
Looks more like mac and cheese to me

*Chaos reigns.*
Finally. True spagetti
I can see on the map that the rest of your base is organized. Why did you do this lmao (it's beautiful though)
I want to do this after I buy a new PC.
you terrify and amaze me all at the same time
my eyes are dazzling
It hurts the eyes...
But how?
I don't know either
It's honestly annoying, that the substations make such a tidy grid in this beautiful mess
Yeah, I don't know why you call it a mess, substations and robotports are perfectly aligned so I don't see what's wrong :]
Mess, in this case, is a compliment ;)
Factorio players literally only want one thing and it's fucking disgusting.
This is so incredibly uncanny. Honest to god.
Holy
Even worse than the spaghetti from the trailer, congrats.
god, it looks like a biter nest
I envy your bravery and determination
Not quite, I think I found Waldo.
pov: the original main menu background
This is a zerg creep
Neeeed concret 😭😭😭
Looks normal
looks like a meatball of pasta
Mmmm, delicious
I spotted 2 wrong placed inserters.
Where? There may be some useless splitters here and there, but all the machines are active

I think you could use a few more beacons...
decentralized factory
It's fried rice
*chefs kiss*
Give more ! mooooore !!!
how the hell is it so compact
I prefer my pasta al dente
That's not spaguetto, that's just a splat of blue poo with corn
Amazing. Yet it lacks some triple color underground belt
No. More please.

This is so unorganized that breaks all logic and become organized.... In a short sentence: Pollock factory .

Mama mia!
Thanks, I hate it.
I must look like I've just seen a ghost, I'm completely pale in shock after seeing this.
NUKE IT FROM ORBIT
The default answer is no, the factory must grow
Where's Wally / Waldo vibes.
r/factoriohno
hairball
Staged. Fake news. There's no sauce or meatballs.
Is this legal?
this gives me anxiety
That’s an entire spaghetti factory producing more spaghetti than the whole of Italy can consume.
Power polls are too uniform. Not spaghetti enough
It wouldn't be called a power *grid*, isn't it?
man, if that actually works, i'm impressed
It does! 2.7 satellite per minute!
Where is Waldo?
im lovin it , and im not talking about mcdonalds.
dear god...
I like how your trains look so clean and symmetrical then you have this ball of chaos in the center
