Factorio: Wave Defense [Normal] in 59m 27s
A speedrun of Factorio's Wave Defense scenario, in 59m 27s. The measured time is from the first reveal of the chosen map through to rocket launch.
Map preview at: 8s
Rocket launch: 59m 35s
There's a number of small misplays I could complain about (and I will) but overall this a PB I can be pretty happy about (and I am). Handcrafting, eh? Moar beacons!
The map gets a lot of credit. Ore patches close together, not overlapping, convenient to the smeltface. Good oil nearby & on the right side of the build. Not many biters, still I overpushed. The coal buffer is new for me, not sure if it's faster but I like only revisiting coal once. Almost as much as I like the tactical red belt & undergrounds for reducing intermediates delay. The powergrid surfing BP tech is sweet.
Smoothing out the misplays could get it down further, which I'll likely try but not quite yet. Sub-60 was the immediate milestone for WD. Being happy with that achievement I might take a moment to contemplate other categories. Good times.
