This is a screen capture of the replay of my speedrun played back at 4x speed. As far as I'm aware, this is the current world record as of 24-jan-2015.

Settings are Factorio version 0.11.8, peaceful enemies, rich ore deposits. Like the other runs so far, I used the ingame timer as a benchmark (as opposed to the more conventional speedrun style of using an external timer). More information is in the factorio forums thread linked below.

I've also made a commentary video where I ramble on for about an hour about how I achieved this time. You can find it over here:

I didn't include a timer, but if you multiply the youtube video playback time by 4, you have an approximate timing of how long the game has been running at that particular moment.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask them. Please check the reddit thread (http://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/2t7d5k/factorio_speedrun_in_44442/) and the factorio forums thread (http://www.factorioforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=8137). I might skip answering stuff that is answered over there or in my commentary video.

I'd love to get a discussion going about strategy optimization and how to improve the time even further, before the new endgame content is released in version 0.12.

Further, If you like games like Minecraft and/or Terraria, I encourage you to take a look at this great game, and take the oppertunity to get cheap while it's still in the alpha fase ;)
