Welcome everybody! To Let's Play Factorio ! Part 3, of Mission 2, Iron in the base is running slowly but steady low. To find more iron in Mission 2 in Factorio we need to search around the map. There is a iron mine outpost to the far west corner of the starting location Base. But the Outpost is surrounded by Bitters so the solution is for now to secure the outpost and make sure the mines won’t be destroyed while mining more iron. But also we need to estab-lish the train transports for the Iron to the main base. So the factories can run without inter-ruption. The Iron Train needs two locomotives so we won’t have to use more then 1 track but also we won’t have to make roundabouts in the base and outpost so the train can keep moving. The trains are unique feature in Factorio they can transport large quantity of re-sources and materials to different parts of the map. Bitters in Factorio can’t stop the train and can’t shot him well. As the Train moves very fast and if the Biter will try to stop it with his body he will just get squads like a little bug he is. The train have downsides though. He needs fuel to be able to run. In mission two of Factorio we have only access for coal, but the amount of coal found in the main base should easily support all our needs for fuel both for the furnaces, power and fuel for the train. However the train remains unable during train stops where he is not on the run and the Bitters can damage him. It would not be a issue if the train did’t cost tons of recourses to build in Factorio so try to cover his stops with towers and walls! In mission two of Factorio we don’t have access to gates so we won’t be able to make a well secured base and outpost.
Another problem with the iron outpost is how near it is located to the bitters nests. We can’t attack the nests with the current technology we have in Factorio sa the bases are protected by towers. Our only option is to defend till we gather all the resources needed for progress. The Iron Outpost however have something that will help us. Lasser turrets, those top of the line defence buildings in Factorio do not need ammunition but they will need large amounts of power in order to shot. We can build more steam engines but still we may find ourselves in Power lack problems from time to time as the Laser Towers in Factorio need rly big amounts of power to fire and the sudden spike of need energy may disturb our power sup-ply!
So don’t forget to connect the power to the iron outpost with our main base but also do not do that till the base and outpost defences are placed! As soon as You connect power to the outpost the bitters may start the attack! So have some defences like walls and towers. I rec-ommend to make an automated wall production back at the base we will need walls anyway for mission two to secure the towers as they are very fragile. With Power defence and stand-ing nearby train its time to repair the mining operations of iron in the outpost. Replace the mines connect the transport belts to the train stop and place inserters with chests. The chests in Factorio act as a buffer for resources. What is a buffer ? Well it will collect and store resources and if suddenly a big amount of them will be needed – for example loading to a train – then the buffer will be unloaded in to the needed section of the Base. With addos and mods for Factorio You can also build warehouses that are way bigger then chests but we keep it vanilla in this Factorio walkthrough.
