Well the 12 parsec shortcut is common knowledge at this point. That’s about 3.7e+14km, say 40km/s average speed because acceleration doesn’t seem to be a thing in Factorio for 9.27e+12 seconds, or a little over 293,000 Earth years. As long as the flight path doesn’t include having to shoot at asteroids I suppose because this model can’t self sustain ammo, or maybe it needs a fleet of ammo ships sent to keep it supplied…
I’m not really sure what you mean by this but also your numbers aren’t even accurate to what I was saying?
What?
Edit: Read the other ones for context but my reaction has not changed
The idea of this design is to make a little fleet of them so we really want to nail the design before copy/pasting. I think we’re just about there
We’re planning to run a new year’s special! Buy 3 at full price get 2 more at 12% off the first one and 9% off the second one but if you get 6 at full price then the discounts on the first set of discounted ones goes up by fifty percent!
It doesn’t move very fast and is a bit inconsistent. So I guess that depends on if spending more time up front to build a faster ship outweighs being able to launch something like this earlier
You can actually differentiate a real Deliverator from a knock off by inspecting the Blinky Lights and their Blinky Logic
I wonder if I could tie the Blinky Logic to an existing combinator and remove the dedicated timer combinator
What is the blurred part supposed to say? Why is it blurred?
I did what I was “supposed to” until about 3.5 years into college. Then I dropped out, bumbled around trying to find meaning in what jobs I managed to sporadically have, and spent time in my marriage. In my early 30s now, newly divorced, realized I fell into doing what I was supposed to again, and I’m done with it
I’m moving to another country, I’m liquidating retirement to pay for college. In some ways it feels like I’ve lost so much but in other ways it feels like I get a second shot at the life I want and this time I’m a lot wiser
I consider $100k to be minimum wage in Seattle. It was just enough to not be constantly money stressed as long as I was living modestly. I could see doctors, invest in hobbies, have choices in food, build savings/retirement. Could not eat out every day, buy a house any time soon, or impulse buy particularly expensive stuff. Any time I made less than $100k here I felt like I was always two steps behind, at about that salary my life stopped focusing on scraping by. I make more now and I feel like I’m actually thriving here. Still quite a difference in what I’d consider to be middle class though like there’s no way I can get a house here and I’d for sure be much worse off if I had kids
Behold, The Deliverator Slim. Storage tanks are a thing of the past
You asked and we delivered: The Deliverator Slim
Speed is real inconsistent not going to lie. Anywhere from about 15-45 between Gleba and Nauvis, depending on where it is in the path and what part of the cycle the chem plant is in. I’d say maybe an average of 25 but I haven’t actually tried to measure it
Thank you <3
I’ve been having a lot of fun making small builds centered around set recipes logic. They’re not exactly time or throughput efficient but they’re an interesting puzzle
We got rid of our ozone layer ages ago
Thank you, should be all set up now in theory
So far speed has not been a concern for The Deliverator. I will let our R&D department know about the width situation though and see what they can think up
Added it to the description. Is there a better way to share them? Seems a bit error-prone to cram it into a spoiler section
All our internal R&D docs refer to it as aerodynamics. I will have to issue an internal review to determine if they’re aware we’re building a space ship not a plane, it could explain the pushback we got when requesting the removal of wings in an early design
