(Factorio 13) Vulcanus Progression/Mall/Science, Nauvis Rocket Silo Expansion (Backlogging 66)
1It was an ALASKAN, BULL WORM!
How are these pipes not melting from the lava? Aren't they made of Iron? What kind of material is the Engineer made out of to be holding them when they're that hot?
I definitely recommend adding more Rocket Silos on Nauvis when you can. So much quicker to send things instead of having to wait for 2 Silos to build another 50 rocket parts to send more. Might have throughput issues in the future if I want to go bigger, but once ships are made, they don't need to be remade, so the Rocket Silos back up to 10 ready-to-launch rockets again between resupply runs.
As this is my first time playing through Space Age, I'm learning a lot of stuff about what needs to be ferried to every planet I go to for future playthroughs. I could've had all the things I needed for Vulcanus on my first trip, but that's part of the learning process. I'm having fun either way, though I will say, Factorio is very exhausting to play, so these daily uploads have almost caught up to where I am in the game right now with the breaks I'm taking.
