It's been a long time since I played Factorio. I went straight from Factorio to ONI, in an attempt to ween myself of the cracktorio. Two years later and here I am back at the main bus again, fun but scary all at the same time. I am going to pace myself, no more time warps.
Oh yeah we knock out all the red and green science, make a lot of armour piercing ammo and a buggy. Their are no living biters in the nearby vicinity anymore, also I don't like desert starts.
Next up we start the main base.

IMPORTANT : The game has been patched since this video and some of the mechanics like steam turbines have been changed. Below is a link to an updated tutorial from 11/10/2019

In this tutorial we tackle Rockets using steam rockets to get us to Petroleum and oxylite. Then
using petroleum to get to liquid oxygen and hydrogen.
Organised.. ish list of time stamped links to multiple tutorials

EDIT: You can use the metal refinery to convert Thermium to niobium at 100% efficency, thanks to
Orion Egenes and Alrion1704 for pointing this out. Please note Tungsten is finite you should only really do this if niobium is very difficult to obtain and only enough to get Liquid oxygen/hydrogen up.

When it comes to capturing enemies does the machine pistol have an advantage.... not really as far as I can see. Looks to be random if the enemies end up dead or incapacitated.
When it comes to training shooting skill, things are a little un-intuitive. All weapons generate the same about of exp for time spent shooting. That means their is no difference between using an auto pistol or a sniper rifle for exp gain. So it's just a case of figuring out which gun can miss the most so you can farm the most exp. Winner is the awful Sniper rifle with the bolt action being a close second. Auto pistol gets an Honorable mention.

This dyson sphere is big, really big. The amount of resources we have already poured in is crazy. This is going to be a monster, assuming the computer can survive long enough.

Dyson Sphere Program is a sci-fi simulation game with space, adventure, exploration and factory automation elements where you can build your own galactic industrial empire from scratch.
In the distant future, the power of science and technology has ushered a new age to the human race. Space and time have become irrelevant thanks to virtual reality. A new kind of supercomputer has been developed – a machine whose superior artificial intelligence and computing capability will push humanity even further. There is only one problem: there isn’t enough energy in the whole planet to feed this machine.
You are a space engineer in charge of a project launched by the space alliance COSMO, tasked with a massive undertaking: constructing Dyson Spheres (a megastructure that would orbit around a star, harnessing all its power and energy) to produce the energy that humanity needs. Only a few decades ago, Dyson Spheres were considered a hypothetical, impossible invention – but now it’s in your hands… Will you be able to turn a backwater space workshop into a galaxy-wide industrial production empire?
Neutron stars, white dwarfs, red giants, gaseous and rocky planets… There is a big and varied universe out there, waiting for you to gather all its resources.
Every playthrough will be unique: your universe will be procedurally generated every time you start a new game. There will be different types and distribution of stars, planets and resources. Will you manage to thrive and build your Spheres, no matter what the universe throws at you?
As a space engineer, you are expected to design your interstellar factory and production lines, not to micromanage every small package going back and forth. You have to transport materials from one planet to another, forming interstellar transport teams that gather resources and

I know we don't necessarily need the entire planet stored in the ship, but it does make things a lot easier.

This team has done a disturbing amount of fighting already. It's only been a year and I have already lost count of the raids and ambushes we have broken. But we have finally got some new recruits, their will be a few issues with converting them to our way of thinking but that will just take a little time. I'm did not catch it straight away but I did roof over the holes in the fridge, curious to see how many comments mention that.

It's called the 395 pawn challenge and I'm afraid my computer is not up to that challenge. We are going to have to drop out at about 200 pawns. But not before we take care of our team and finish the guts of our base.

There is a bit of spam about the place so a few measures have been taken to reduce it. If any of your comments are held for review don't worry about it, just everything working as intended.

We are in the end game now, all the pieces are in place. The question is can Randy throw enough insanity at us to break a 200 strong base. Casualties are a given with this style, but another question is how many and how much will it hurt moral.
