Scaling for the sake of scaling just doesn't appeal to me a lot. I've kind of lost interest after building out all the non-infinite sciences. I guess different people just like different things. The whole experience was amusingly similar to my job ^^ Not being fluent in Factorio's logic networks, I spent a couple hours trying to understand the logic connections and operations that made this system work.Īnd just as I write this, I find that a modified copy (don't call it a fork :p) of the blueprint calls out my issue explicitly: if there is no fuel available to refuel, the system will wedge itself and effectively need to be rebooted! Nuclear plants can be complicated in the game because they will consume their (expensive!) fuel even if it's not necessary, so people have constructed sophisticated logic systems to only feed fuel to the power plants when it's actually required.įor some reason, the blueprint I copied wouldn't feed new fuel into the power plants, and my factory ground to a halt for lack of power! Click here to take part in the ICO.Anecdote: I was just last night trying to debug a relatively complex nuclear power plant blueprint. We will host an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) for Factorio Blueprint Token ⚙️, so make sure you invest as much as you can and HODL it, in the hopes that someone will tweet about it making the price go to the moon 🚀🌘. Some say that Factorio offers so much value for money, that they paid more for the electricity bill than they paid for the game, so we are happy to take it to the next level. Since you can now earn crypto by just playing the game, the game basically pays for itself.įactorio Blueprint Tokens ⚙️ come with all the advantages of a proof-of-work cryptocurrency, and all the fun of playing Factorio and optimizing factories for maximum UPS. Factorio Blueprint Tokens ⚙️ are earned from Space Science using a variable conversion rate we will control. You will need to pay 1,000 of them to mint 1 new unique blueprint. To ensure the Blockchain is not flooded with useless blueprints, we will also create a cryptocurrency called Factorio Blueprint Token ⚙️. Limiting the creation (minting) of new blueprints using just the AI will not be enough. Once again, making blueprints truly unique. In order to guarantee uniqueness we will use AI and Machine Deep Learning to analyze any new blueprint before it is minted, this way you won't be able to just move one power pole and mint a copy. Unlike most NFTs, blueprints are created (minted) by the players, making it a truly decentralized system, controlled by the smart contracts we created. In essence your blueprint library will become your personal wallet, containing only the unique blueprints that you own. Just like NFTs, they can be traded on the Blockchain, also making them a great speculative asset. What this means is that every blueprint in the blueprint library will now be stored on the Blockchain, and they will be truly unique across all of the blueprint libraries of all players. So it only makes sense to make them truly unique, using the Blockchain, NFT, and Smart Contracts technologies. One of the best things about the blueprint library is that it contains your unique blueprints, which are almost like unique pieces of art.
#Factorio nuclear reactor setup how to
Allowing players to easily share big blueprints (blue science, nuclear reactor setup, etc.) ruins the fun of figuring out how to build those things yourself.

One of the many subjects of debate within the team is the blueprint library. After consulting with some industry-leading experts on Discord, this is what we came up with: Since we have many Blockchain enthusiasts on the team, we decided to explore the subject ourselves. Some of the offers were quite silly, others very tempting. With some big gaming companies exploring NFTs, where does Factorio stand? No doubt you have heard about NFTs, the latest Blockchain innovation. Nothing written here should be taken seriously. This post was written as a joke for April Fools' day.
