100 x 100 City Block Science. So I've been building a Train/City block map and only building inside my 100 x 100 grid blocks I've got every factory made to make everything and transfer by train. I've got a few hundred hours into the map and am running into the issue of science. I am having a hard time building a blueprint with beacons in the ...3K SPM Angels Bobs City Block Megabase. Hi all, Played this amazing game back in beta, but never actually ended up launching a rocket. Picked this game up again after 1.0 and decided to go all in with a Angels + Bobs city block megabase (design inspired by Nilaus and many others in the community)! So here is my completed 3k SPM factory!Well in SE I went for micro blocks, not city blocks. Each block is the size of 1 roboport logistics coverage! Obviously the blocks themselves do not have train stations inside the production areas, even 1-1 trains would not fit. But the loading / unloading stations are each a block and sit adjacent to the production. I use 1-2 trains.The point of city blocks is production modularity - you have a block that, for example, takes 130 Iron/sec and 160 Copper/sec in and puts 180 Circuits/sec out (that's my 180 Green block). You can throw that block down anywhere - geography be damned - and count on your rails to bring the inputs if you have sufficient supply, and thus provide the ...The logistic networks are split for each city block if you use the first level of roboports, and imo it works better that way since the it is meant to be train based and not robot based on a larger scale. Train length is 2-4-2 for item trains and 2-3-2 for fluid trains. Mods used. Logistics Train Network (ain't no use doing this without it)+1. I waited to do city blocks in space until finishing the tier-4 sciences. And definitely, I almost exclusively used 1-1 trains in space. A dedicated block just making space platform is very nice to have - 50k platform is more than enough for a new large orbital solar farm, or to jumpstart a new orbital base.A City Block is the size of 4 Roboports and includes roads, power poles, lights and a big area for building a modular area. I generally have a number of different types of city blocks ... Intending on doing something like this for my current Bob's Mods run, similar to Factorio Towns.

View Copy. ... Size 114 x 114 ...Using logistic bots as the main way for short transports of items then it's bad for UPS to connect everything). If using belts or direct insertion, using an big logistic network and bots is an viable method to do it. You can wait and do something else while the bots is on it way and you can research more bot speed. 2.So ill just say that i usually go for 100*100. You'll likely have seen many blueprint using that size and it because you can perfectly cover it with 4 roboports for a convenient global logistic network. Depends how long of trains you want to run. Junctions for 4-10 are going to force you to quite large blocks.My City-Block Design. It's designed to use LogisticTrainNetwork for easy Block to Block Navigation and Resource distribution. Up to 2-9-2 Train size. I would make the city blocks bigger. My first time making city blocks I did 5x5 and only 2 rails (1 per direction). Rail throughput ended up being the thing that slowed me down after making 3k spm.Find blueprints for the video game Factorio. Share your designs. Search the tags for mining, smelting, and advanced production blueprints.Build a frame with the vertical and horizontal parts, and plop down whatever stations you want on the sides and whatever you want on the inside. Track 1 is the outer track and …I like city blocks with trains. It's easier to add more trains and more city blocks than it is to try to add more belts to a main bus design. I would start buy deciding on a train size (personally I am running 2L 4C trains), then decide on a city block size that those trains fit in with plenty of room for train stations going either direction (my city blocks are 10*10).There are plenty of “RFID-blocking” products out there, but do they actually do anything? Here’s what they can prevent — and what they can’t. We may receive compensation from the p...1 chunk city blocks. Miminal city block design. Contains the city block for 1 to 3 input materials (with the last station for train fueling), which disable each other if a train is heading to them to prevent trains stopping in other chunks. Requires 1-1 trains, and the use of the secondary set of rails for use as a 'spine' system (the big ...You need about 1/10th or maybe 1/5th that many. You need like 1/4 to 1/2 the green chip production you're doing, probably because you're wasting tons of chips in bots. City block may just not be a good idea here, at least not the way you're doing it. 150 trains is mind blowing - even for a city block, that's megabase scale.Reply. dayspringsilverback. • 1 yr. ago. The idea behind the city block methodology is to simplify expansion. Mature city block builds have distilled every component of the factory down into a city block. So if you need more power plunk down another solar or nuclear power block.A City Block is the size of 4 Roboports and includes roads, power poles, lights and a big area for building a modular area.

Currently making small amounts of blue science and managed to unlock mineral sorting 3, so newt in line is to get gold, and all blue science production to going.Square city blocks waste a lot of space when you just want a row of machines. I rely on warehouses and loaders to avoid wasting space on balancers. There are also no stackers. Each station has a train limit of 1, that's it, simple as can be. Krastorio 2 increases stack sizes to 200 so I can get away with baby sized 1-1 trains.Find blueprints for the video game Factorio. Share your designs.

After you have several infinite researches unlocked, a city block system makes more sense because you will want to build at scale after that. That being said, you can still PLAN for the city blocks as you lay down the beginning stages of your train network. 10.A strict city block design would mean that any and all interaction happens through trains, while with non strict design neighboring blocks might share using pipes and belts. In my case (with angel+bob) my blocks have "trouble" actually giving stuff to their direct neighbour, as to cross the tracks (to the other station) they have to enter from ...I'm just getting into city block designs, and really like the idea of standardized tiles that can be arbitrarily stamped down in such a way that they'll line up with the adjacent tile. I've noticed that most people seem to rely on a 100x100 block template.There are plenty of “RFID-blocking” products out there, but do they actually do anything?

Here you will find the blueprint book for this and some rail chunks I made for this base. Features of the Blocks: 1x1, 1x2, 1x3, 2x3 and 3x3 chunks blocks. They are not upgradable between them but they are tilable between each other as long as the touching edge are the same size.100x100 is quite enough for a lot of usecases. You can use more than 1 block for processing, belts are quite helpful. I'm still in my very first playthrough and I'm in the final stages of my first city block base. It's about 1x1 radar diameter (~224x224 tiles) with a 4-way roundabout junction at each intersection.So if you, say, have 4 stops per block then you can only bring in/out 4 different materials to craft with (or even just 3 if one of the stops is for exporting whatever you crafted), unless you start importing/exporting materials from/to adjacent city blocks, which can make for a more spagettified and less blueprintable base.Re: City block train station layout. by Guenni7 » Fri Nov 20, 2020 12:10 am. The version with the roundabouts decrease traffic troughput by 50%. In case you want to place lots of this city blocks, you might run into troughput problems too, there will be a lot of congestion. After having that problem too, I came up with this (2-way/4lanes right ...Then it takes 1.5 seconds at a roboport to recharge. With Robot speed research at level 6 a robot moves 12 tiles per second. The logistic area of a roboport is 50x50 so I try to keep my logistic networks at or below 5x5 roboports and then If I have to move things long distance between 2 logistic networks I use trains. #2.Py - how to transition to city blocks. I just hit the 120h mark and unlocked the fast inserters. Producing 10/min of the first three sciences and my factory is somewhat well balanced at the moment. I'd like to switch to city blocks but I am kinda scared by the undertaking.The base revolves around the following principles: - Tile the base with hexagons (duh) - Left-handed rail system (because the signals can be on the inside) along the edges of the hexagons. This naturally makes 3-way intersections which are more efficient than 4 way intersections. - Train enters/exits on the top left/bottom right edge, and the ...Soon, the true work begins (starting to build Space Exploration city block) Awesome! I'm at the T1 science level right now (material done, energy half done, still need to set up vita and berry outposts for the other two). I have those on a branching fluid bus with heavy bot support. I'm thinking though, that as soon as all the T1 techs are ...Tutorial:Main bus. The concept of a Main Bus is to put the most used and useful ingredients in a central spot to use for assembling machines. This is a good measure to combat "spaghetti factories" as it forces someone to plan a structured layout and move everything to use items from the bus. This is also a downside as there are more belts used ...I know nilaus does with SE. In my K2+SE run I used 1-4 trains and a 128x128 city block grid, but switched to 1-2 for Norbit. I think 1-1 trains are great if you leave enough space to have multiple trains waiting (like 2 or 3) in order to keep up with throughput normal 1-4 trains give, or use train limits for 1-2 stations, so the waiting station becomes a usable stop (the latter is trickier to ...So a 600x100 slice contains an east-west transit block at either end, then a stations-block moving inwards, and the centre 200x100 is all factory. You can place 10 or 12 of these slices next to eachother before you need a North-South interconnect between the 2 transit lines.

Includes interfaces to external belt networks for raw resources and a set of sandbox enabled producers for raw resources to aid in placing the factory.The city block creation in K2 doesn't seem different than in vanilla to me. I'm not an expert, but I firstly made chunk-aligned rail blueprint book (straight and 3-way intersection, my hexagons don't need 4-way). Since the maximum distance between poles is one chunk, they are easily rotatable. I used them to create a block, adding a 3-way ...So if you, say, have 4 stops per block then you can only bring in/out 4 different materials to craft with (or even just 3 if one of the stops is for exporting whatever you crafted), unless you start importing/exporting materials from/to adjacent city blocks, which can make for a more spagettified and less blueprintable base.Py - how to transition to city blocks.

Makes expansion easy as you can just copy/paste a whole block, but wastes a lot of space as many things won’t fill up a whole block. Fun concept to play with and trying blocks of various sizes per map.Here are my brainstorm/plans for the "city block" print. - 4 lane trains (2+2, right hand drive) - include power (Big power pole) - include green/red signal. - 1 station in north for "player" (for at least a 5 length train) My plan for the "1 station" print (Typical smelter block) - 1 station in the left of the block for input.I am trying to create my own city block, but ran into an issue. How can I make them overlap while being chunk aligned? I know I can make it relative, however, that becomes too hard for me to even try to line things up (I am visually impaired).How to use. Enable debug option "show-detailed-info". Determine the starting city block. Move to the upper left corner, in the center of the intersection.

Go to the map settings and enter the offset values, as well as the index of the initial ...One can chain this block for iron to get a steel production block (delivers 3.3 blue belts of steel) The delivery of ore can run on an independent rail line, without intersecting with other rail lines. This reduces interference and provides a clean interface from mining area to smelting block. Double trains set feeding the same belts.Finally trying out the "city block" concept (in Space Exploration)—a Core Mining Drill with belts routing the core fragments to a dozen Pulverizers, then filter miniloaders to sort the patchwork variety pack of ore.I noticed that most of the standard blueprints and youtube videos involving a Grid or City Block make them 100x100. This is puzzling to me since 96x96 would make it exactly 3 chunks by 3 chunks and still leave a 2-block border outside of the power-pole square. I am certain there is some well-thought out logic behind that 100x100 size that has ...A new(?) type of city-block design I have been trying out.

And all rails surround 4 city blocks Basically 1-2 blocks are for unloading, 1 is for loading stuff into trains and the last block is the actual production part.Each block's side has room for 2 trains in the station and 2 trains in each lane. I know it's a lot of chain signals, but it seemed like the best answer was clearing trains all the way into the stations or straightways since the entries/exits are so close to intersections. Each block can handle up to four platforms of either single or split cargo.Base-In-A-Book - Stage 1 Complete - Nilaus. Posted by Nilaus 3 years ago.
