this one lone spitter is just staring into the lake instead of going near the turrets

I'm almost done with building and fully outfitting a 2nd mobile space platform
Both platforms should be fully inner-planet capable and both are pre-loaded with the materials to build a rocket silo and 4 rockets immediately upon arrival to a new planet
slender storm
Hype
Will join y'all for the expedition to the next planet, so just ping me when that happens
Also I figured out what was going on with the save file
There's a subtle bug in my launcher script that I need to fix. It's not a problem, so it's not urgent, but I'd have to take the server down for a few minutes to fix it.
radiant galleon
iirc we talked about going to Vulcanus first
Turbo (green) belts and artillery are locked behind Vulcanus's science pack
slender storm
Sounds good to me 
dire trout
we're gearing up for it whenever the rockets are done sending supplies up, maybe 20 minutes, if you're available
slender storm
Yep, I'll be around
radiant galleon
cool, i'll update here once the platforms have been fully supplied and are ready to ship out
it takes a lot of materials to build the silo and 4 rockets 
1k concrete, 1k steel, 100 pipes, 400 blue circuits, 200 electric motors, 200 low density structures, and 200 rocket fuel
radiant galleon
Onwards, to Vulcanus!

Steel printing time 
radiant galleon
Iron, steel, and copper, just freely printing away
radiant galleon
iron, steel, copper, copper wire, pipes, and gears all being foundry cast, and green circuits, solar panels, and accumulators in production.

however, now is sleep time

then once we get big mining drills we can set up orange science and build the silo
then once sufficient means of making rockets is made, then we can get a space platform automatically shuttling back and forth
slender storm
I’ve addressed the issue with the server’s scripts. Save rollbacks will now work as expected in the future, should they be needed.

@radiant galleon @slender storm are y'all up for more vulcanus adventures?
radiant galleon
sure, I can be on in 45 min or so
slender storm
Yep, I can join in shortly

If by "shortly" I meant "after a handful of things unexpectedly pop up and needed immediate attention" then my estimate was accurate

several worms have been murdered 🪱

radiant galleon
the small worms are stupidly easy to kill with the proper worm bait
frozen moss
A field of poison capsules is their kryptonite. Instantly breaks through their regen ability, allowing the gun turrets to shred them to bits.
radiant galleon
not even
this is all it takes for up to a medium worm

But the tesla turrets are the real worm-zappers.

156 turrets, all set to go off at once

this whole area is now 🪱 free

technically, the vulcanus factory is fully automated now, it ships orange science back to nauvis in 1k batches on its own
frozen moss
Vulcanus is dirt cheap to set up and automate, honestly. And it just prints metal for nothing.
You'll never run out of iron or copper or coal ever again
Also, big miners
Now you can mine 50% more trash per trash on Trash Planet

interesting Planet...... its called Virentis

Yeah, there are some modded planets that...aren't quite up to Factorio standards, lol

If you want more planets but not be insanely dragged down by 2+dozen worlds, only have the good ones in a pack.

last night we returned to nauvis and redid a lot of the factory layout to remove belts, clean up the fluid processing area, and work towards modularizing the subsections for better troubleshooting/planning/expansion
it is mostly logistics robot based now, so sections can be moved around at will, mostly
also added several more roboports to provide more charging stations for bots
there's still more work to be done with improving the factory, mostly greatly expanding the circuit production, especially green and red
next planet is most likely Fulgora
slender storm
Whoops. Part of our rail system has been eaten and a train was destroyed
frozen moss
Told you guys that they don't always go after the big pollution clouds
Gotta defend the rail lines too
They'll even sometimes attack power poles to cut off the power supply to your outposts
heady fulcrum
Biters typically attack things that block their way or are near them, but they only target pollution producers
frozen moss
That's not what the biters on my worlds do, even in vanilla 
Like, they straight up will target my rails to stop oil shipments, or electric poles to stop defenses or miners from working.
No mods or anything
thorn venture
biters basically walk straight toward pollution, but they attack anything they run into on the way

A bugfix update for Factorio was published today. The server has been updated accordingly.

FYI, the Factorio server may be sluggish tonight while I move a large amount of data around.
Eventually I'll migrate the Factorio server off the NAS and onto my shiny new server.
dire trout
We're nearly able to go to gleba
Gotta tie up some loose ends on vulcanus first
Fulgora will be good for a bit, more scrap sources getting shipped in would be nice, but not critical; the initial island supply is pretty massive

we got jellynut production going, next time we'll do the yamako fruits, then we'll get the central factory up once both fruits are available
frozen moss
Be prepared for lots of stompers. The enemies on Gleba are relentless and very tanky.
Get. Explosive. Rocket. Turrets. A line/block of those will easily stop stompers in their tracks.

New Dosh video!
Only a few minutes in and I can already tell he's gonna hate his life by the end of it, and also that this factory is gonna be ones of those ones where you turn it on and pray everything works because you have no idea how any of it works.
In other words, 10/10 video so far

...Holy shit, that was intense.
That "thousand yard stare" he has on the thumbnail is no joke. This mod kicked his ass. The first two Rampant videos were child's play compared to the utter nightmarish horrors and hell-born apocalyptic scenarios he found himself facing here.
He was facing suicidal NUCLEAR biters at the end that destroy his walls with explosions.
Let me say that again: the biters evolved themselves to become NUCLEAR FUCKING BOMBS so that they could destroy him.

We envision 2.1 as our last major update of Factorio, and we will shift the focus onto long term support. So things like bug fixes, platform support/compatibility, modding features, etc. Other than that we feel we've reached a good place to conclude the active gameplay development.

honestly, considering the spage age expansion basically added the first half of the biggest mod for the game, I'm not sure where they'd even go after that
