14 - 2024 - Factorio Hours 24-26

This video covers hours 24-26 of this game series. I am not strong when it comes to math or figuring out circuits. I have no background in circuits at all. I had to spend a considerable amount of time outside of recording the game to watch videos on how the Logistics Train Network (LTN) worked. It was tough for me to learn the basics, but I finally got it! I had to build several things during this time, so I hope it is not confusing in keeping with the video series. I took the time to show the changes up front to cut down on the confusion. In this video I show how I set up the coal provider station and two coal requestor stations to keep the train depot fuels and to keep the power plant running. I also set up a provider station for crude oil and a requestor station to store all that crude oil for use. I hope this very basic setup makes sense for those that have trouble with circuits like I do. 00:00 – Intro 00:29 – Showing the changes 03:10 – Setting up coal provider 23:32 – Setting up coal request – depot 30:21 – Setting up coal request – power 33:00 – Setting up oil provider 37:03 – Setting up oil request – storage 47:30 – Depot train schedule reset Google Drive Folder https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JIYUKiqlMesXQtkdv8EsaAlGjTuqjWf-?usp=sharing Laurence Plays – Video 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hk446UVlCuQ Laurence Plays – Video 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5B4bkl_ChqA Diablo LTN Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZtcKlNous9o&t=403s

This video covers hours 22-24 of this game series. We finished laying out the beginning on the railroad track network. We also turned all the steam power plants on getting ready for the eventual growth. Spent some time to the West of the power plant filling in the water with landfill. We were able to run power poles along the railroad track lines to distribute power where needed. Finally, we built a train stop at the new coal patch for distribution along the rail line. In addition, we built a coal drop off station at the power plant to provide a continual supply of coal to the power plant. While doing all of this, the pollution cloud grew and caused a biter attack on the new coal patch. We moved into the are and took out a few biter nests and set up gun turrets to protect the coal site. Please note there were a few mundane things done off video. 00:00 – Intro 00:46 – Placing track 02:14 – All power turned on 05:32 – Landfill time 08:45 – More track 09:41 – Coal drop by power 12:30 – Cola provider station 17:45 – Biter attack on coal 20:08 – Setting defense

This video covers hours 18-20 of this game series. In this video we study the map and figure out a tentative route for the rail network prior to the cliff explosives. The areas we need to expand have biters occupying the territory, so we need to eliminate the nests. It was time to start making the rail network blueprints, so we completed that project. A ghost track was laid across the map to denote the location and route of the rail network. In between, more brick foundation was added to the oil processing site. We also ran a rail along the inside of the oil processing location. A new coal site was set up with rail and miners. Also built an additional steam plant and used it to burn up an excess of logs from tree clearing. Last, an oil field site was set up with pumpjacks preparing the site for operation. 00:00 – Intro 01:57 – Clearing Biters 06:58 – Track blueprints 14:49 – Track placement 18:44 – Brick foundation 20:54 – More track 32:38 – New coal mine 37:33 – More power 42:08 – First oil field Google Drive Folder https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JIYUKiqlMesXQtkdv8EsaAlGjTuqjWf-?usp=sharing Music Licenses: GKOGBK1GLBWJGQEX T5RPEOWELVXTVKQO Z0EBI6UCAVD2CQQK

This video covers hours 12-14 of this game series. We begin by building military science pack production. Science is finally to the point we are going to open a lot of tech. We have more brick built up to lay more brick foundation in the oil production site. It is time to transition to the main bus line production and build the things we need to expand. Production is now automated for electric miners, offshore pump, pumpjack, repair packs, and steel furnace. We still have a lot to build and need to keep moving forward. 00:00 – Intro 00:45 – Military science pack 23:16 – Brick foundation oil site 24:57 – Mining and repair line 34:00 – Furnace line Google Drive Folder https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JIYUKiqlMesXQtkdv8EsaAlGjTuqjWf-?usp=sharing Music Licenses: WWWAY3UXMOMELPQV LZ8EMKK8TLL5L8IO VDLXDLMQWH0VP3RW RKHIAL38RKUCRALM ZNE7F0UXHPGXXQRY C8AIP7BZGLESVYJC GLNE8LPNNDGHSHSM FJ8PDRZ0NGILBZZG CYMFQRMTMMP0N9ZK FGIJB1WP2RYL9F5K SIEKDDMOXFG5KGUT GMVSJSLOPB3H5ZOD

This video covers hours 10-12 of this game series. This video covers the beginning of production along the bus line. We start with the various electric poles and transition to assembling machines, oil refinery, chemical plant, and lab. We also upgrade the stone furnaces to steel furnaces to improve pollution levels and productivity. A new site is established for science research. We also start the automation of red and green science packs. In between, we begin using brick foundation for the oil production site that is forthcoming. This is where things start to change for the better in the game. We are slowly leading into the part of the game where we no longer have to handcraft items we need. 00:00 – Intro 00:32 – Electric Transmission 15:51 – Production Machines 34:46 – New Lab Site 39:20 – Red Science Pack 44:28 – Green Science Pack Google Drive Folder https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JIYUKiqlMesXQtkdv8EsaAlGjTuqjWf-?usp=sharing Music Licenses: MUSALKPG65RX1W3N FYLVUEWBEKBWGIBZ UB0O2F7WVNTT9APH STS4M7HO2CQ5Z12O YJFKJWDEMPHZ2BSJ LG3OGPWHXXBCUCPG 7VXNHIN29PSXZXBS DUSUKECRXW0UVJSP R0EHHYDAOAE4MTSJ J4AGUUTGQ32BIDXS ZDDBDTG9Q3FUHWID DGEPSLDV2GVAW3JE TG2RAHHEDXXBS8YE 7V5EQIT1M4XTN7MO WPICLPS5NN18LSTB CNUG0EFSG0VMX8PP BLIX5XJQG1K9FIQH

1 - 2024 - Factorio Introduction

This is my first tutorial type video for the game Factorio. This video series was started in July 2024 prior to the Factorio 2.0 and DLC release. I wanted to make a slowed down version of how to play the game. I noticed many new players out there become overwhelmed with the game and some reach levels of anxiety while dealing with the divided attention that this game requires. Although I do not possess strong skills in mathematics and do not work in the IT field or game development, I wanted to show you that this can be done by investing time in the game with a certain amount of slow strategy. This video series will be a little longer than most videos out there. The biters have been limited in the game and are not allowed to evolve. I did this to focus more on the mechanics of the game and still be able to use military applications when it is available. My hope is that this video series can help new players to the game get started.

4 - 2024 - Factorio Hours 4-6

This video covers hours 4-6 of this game series. In the previous video we spent considerable time designing a bus line for production and defining a place for oil production. We are going to use a lot of landfill to set up the oil production site. When learning the mechanics of the game, it is important to plan and lay out a good foundation to build upon. Power transmission lines are placed to create a temporary power grid in the early game prior to more advanced power transmission lines. We work on setting up the beginnings of a robust power infrastructure that can be expanded when the time comes. We develop a better steam power generation design blueprint with a steam buffer. Continued working through some of the tech tree and took out a few more biter nests. 00:00 – Set up small brick production 00:03 – Begin laying more landfill at oil production site 00:08 – Study map to get a train onto oil production site with cliffs in the way 00:10 – Set up a small waterfill production 00:11 – Begin laying in power grid to feed bus area power 00:17 – Plan out water retention pond for electrical power generation 00:18 – Begin building the retention pond 00:22 – Defining the retention pond boundaries 00:25 – Begin placing electric miners on bus site coal patch 00:28 – Finish the retention pond with waterfill 00:31 – More landfill at oil production site 00:36 – Redesign power production plant in Blueprint Sandboxes mod 00:46 – Placement of power production blueprint and build 00:55 – New power plant placed online 00:59:14 – Destruction of old power plant 01:02 – Labeling power production using Text Plate mod 01:03 – Place belt balancer at new coal mining site 01:08 – Coal mining site placed online 01:08 – Placing electric miners on one of two iron ore sites at bus line area 01:12 – Take out more biter nests to the West of the starting site 01:13 – Revealing more map and discovering new resources Google Drive Folder https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1JIYUKiqlMesXQtkdv8EsaAlGjTuqjWf-?usp=sharing Music Licenses: MNXCMZRH7VPZJOXV 9LPKFQ8ARAUDFHUX 0BPFPMR9OGOFNCDX XGYA98JZJUYMQWLL RU40QVFQBZNPLE07 LZY8CM2XEI0SLB0W B2O3DOSPYYK6FNSK TCBTB4HMYZWDOUOF E0IHRMAUFAHLSFPY 5UTZ5PWY9WSNHRO2 SL5DRL1APERQCG9Z EO1S1ILGVF3KW5TC ITVM0ZH23D3XARBX VVIUZJUR8UP2ZCWC 2FFTNJFXL1FKETLA TLCLTJN8VPLOGXIF UD9T5WM1ZTKOXXXH KFXGK5KVAMFSO4IU DLYD04QTZR9TMKFB BYQRP7QSVOFSU9NM KUBOKVLCYIYG3GJP BIJDNQOF0ZSFMX06 RBGLXZM4IO3OGZK1 19PF4X5I8M3JCMS2
