How Hard is it to Beat Factorio's SEABLOCK? - The Bean EMPIRE 

My wife left me because I tried to produce beans by mixing the DNA of my children with beans

Lmaoooo

@@bosanski_Cevap Ed-ward... Bean-ward....

I am infertile from eating bean scented candles

@@n0thingnothing317 Kek, even.

A man is not a man without any beans

Bbbbbbbbbbbbbb bbbbbbbbbbb yesnnnvvvvv

You probably meant: "... he will rebean the world"

Only if its the factorio engeneer.

nonono if you leaf a bean with beans hw will make MOAR beans

For real. Watching the play through time stamp skip 4-20 seconds per short clip shown just to highlight a quick set of actions. Then using those to showcase coherent game play across such a massive amount of play time is incredible.

Though I did have to split it over two 'meals'.

HE PUT CLOSED CAPTIONS ON IT TOO

Which is why I want him to play pyanodons, I want to see an edited py playtrough

I've played seablock for about 70 hours and 95% of the time is just used figuring out the process chain you need to build and designing builds with correct ratios

Certainly it will help people considering taking a shot each time to realize they have a death wish

It might show up in the recap for next episode. (Here's hoping)

Thank you, this is very convenient

Dosh could make a compilation of "convenient" for the recap in his next video LIke "Previously on Seablock: conventient - convenient - convenient" you get the idea

Gangsta!

I will build more beans. I will make you hurt

@@potatoman7407 Hurt isn't the word I'd use, but you got the last 2 letters right.

​@@DFPercushspurt?

I will make you bean

@@bobthegamingtaco6073 fart.

Especially one that happens to be obsessed with *beans*

attention all of adeptus mechanicus dis techpriest on nauvis, calidus one, is building beans in the middle of the ocean do what you must

Imagine of Kawl had no supervision from mars. Yeah that.

@@americankid7782 a new imperium of man where all the servitors or slaves are replaced with sexy toaster?

I am 100% confident factorio could be a part of the 40k lore

Never knew that and its metal as fuck

@@Yokoto12343 its actually very specifically nonmetallic

Float-casting my beloved The surface of the molten tin is very smooth, which translates into a smooth bottom surface on the glass.

@@wesleymays1931 Isn't it basically atomically smooth?

The ore sorting and refining are also fairly directly based on real life afaik

I used to skimp out on writing everything down as I said it, but these days I script pretty much everything, or write down what I said unscripted so I can just paste the entire script into the subtitles and let RU-vid figure out the timings.

Second this, having subtitles is great even if you can hear english. Sometimes reading is easier

I quite like subtitles with anything especially educational stuff as I find it easier to get things past my ADHD with the extra input

@@Lily-whiteLiterally just came to say: this is absolutely a neurodivergent minds thing. We love having subs on everything, even our own language. Brains are weird. Weird brains are weirder 😅

@@DoshDoshington oh that's why the subtitles don't always match up with what you're saying! it's probably just a me thing but it really irks me when the subtitles aren't matched up with the words being spoken but it makes more sense knowing it's a copy of your script.

Playing this much Factorio is enough to drive one completely insane

just goes to show the dedication to accuracy the mod author had when making this one.

_Some_ of them are, yes

"The struggle itself to reach the heights is enough to fill a man's heart"

A lot of the production chains have to do with the way those materials are processed in real life. Take the glass sheets, for example. The reason they require tin ingots but don't actually consume them is because you use molten tin as a surface to cast the glass on. Tin melts at a lower temperature than glass, and it's also denser, so when you melt it it creates a nearly atomically-smooth surface that you can pour the molten glass on and it will float on top until it cools and hardens. After that, you pull the glass sheet off and it keeps the surface finish. Humans are indeed amazing.

@@awareqwx Tin is amazing in this case

​@@nadarith1044no, that one guy who made use of different densities to effortlessly achieve atomically-smooth glass surface is a genius. In hindsight it makes sense, but to come up with that procedure is way beyond most people.

Blessed be you For the factory must grow Welcome brother Welcome to the glory of the factory

Beans in my blood, beans in my DNA

there are many inspiring and/or worrying stories related to this mod

what happened is that somebody realized via a forum post that it was technically possible to beat Bob's and Angel's mod with just water and a few starting supplies. This post entertained somebody else enough that they decided to plug away at exactly what was needed, and place that, with a handful of tweaks, to make sure that it could be done.

this mod is what happens when someone tries to start a pyanadon playthrough. When the player starts doing the math on how many cottongut he'll have to raise and slaughter in order to progress, his mind becomes paralyzed. Beans are much less traumatic.

@@therealstubot I don't know what you're talking about, and I am afraid to ask.

Not only was this mod made and balanced, it is chemically/materially accurate to a reasonable degree. Not perfect, obviously, but the person who made it likely did hundreds of hours of research on what each part is made of and the process of making it.

And lot of the chemistry is basically correct too, even if it abstracts away most of the details that make chemical engineering hard in the real world (managing temperatures, gas and fluid pressures, purity, quality, and contamination etc).

@@Eldriitch Factorio abstracts enough stuff by making perfect flawless maintenance free conveyor belts and the utter wizardry of inserters, which would completely revolutionize the world economy if they could be implemented as designed, so I'm good with that hahaha

@@Anonie324 lmao, the amount of manhours it takes to design and build something that looks like an inserter and make it function pretty well on just 1 machine doing exactly 1 task is staggering. A general purpose arm that could pick up literally any solid and place it accurately in any machine or on any belt (in any environment) is just so far into the realm of fantasy that its hilarious to imagine. I'd put that in the same fantasy magic category as strong AI, fusion, and safe self driving cars ... maybe even more magical.

@@wilshireanasurimbor3068 I wouldn't go that far. The inserter is definitely well beyond current engineering, but not completely out of the question. Human arms are basically a scaled down implementation of the concept.

@@Eldriitch It's not the arm that's crazy in the case of the human, it's the computations made by the brain that controls it.

Wherever he goes, pavement spawns beneath his feet…

I'd suggest it. If only to watch it turn into a factory plot whatever he walks 😂

virtual beans.

a 100 years ago he would be the Heinz beans founder

@@squa_81 No, only if he belonged previously to a aristocratic family such as the Heinz family. Magnates come from fortune, not intelligence or prowess :P

@Cecil_Augus They come from the meeting of Capital, cunning and ruthlessness. The capital to make the purchases combined with the cunning and ruthlessness to get the competition to sell. Aristocratic blood only bestows capital and is no substitute for ruthlessness. Andrew Carnegie & Cornelius Vanderbilt are definitely proof of that.

I have beans on the brain. I misread "Chill" as "Chili"!

@@xintrosi6829 It's just too late at night, brain is dry.

Try out Py mod This is like toy game to compare

@@jirijaneba5586 He is ugly. I rate mods not by difficulty, but by satisfaction from use.

​​@@jirijaneba5586 ive tried it holy guacamole my brain does not have the stamina

@@jirijaneba5586 The problem with Py however is that it you'd need to have not hundreds, but thousands of hours to spare in order to get to the mid game or late game.

@@TheOrange3Juice yea we have like 5 guys Working on more severs as we were using mod to transport stuff between them And took multi months to get somewhere

For the god emperor of Beans

@@destroyerx2796 Yep, may his bean-ness grace all of nauvis and the surrounding systems.

You only need two steps to get iron plates. It's just that you eventually get the tech and infrastructure to improve your yields... at the cost of increased complexity. And Bob on its own is actually pretty simple - a few more materials, a few more complex processes... but you get ridiculously powerful bonuses from that. Everything ends up being very simple the second you gain access to logistics bots. Everything scales ridiculously well, and you end up needing less of everything as the technology progresses. Heck, most people complained Bob's is too easy and overpowered. It's Angel's that really brings in the realism (and even then, the vast majority of the complexity is in Angel's petrochem, which again... yeah, totally legit :D ). The point is that greater efficiency comes at the cost of higher complexity and initial investment. You can avoid a _lot_ of that complexity if you don't care about efficiency and environmental devastation :D Small-scale production tends to focus on lower investment, just like in real life. It takes a certain scale to make the more complex stuff pay off. Pyanodon also works on the modular approach, where you can choose your complexity target. The base mod is reasonably complex. Not enough? Add PyEnergy. More? PyCircuits. Still not enough? PyAlienLife. Nullius is just brilliant. It takes all the Angel approach and puts it on an airless, dead world - tasking you (an android) with terraforming it and introducing life. All the Angel-style complexity combined with an environment that isn't nearly as convenient to work with - good luck running a coal power plant on a planet that doesn't have any fossil fuels... or free oxygen. It also has a very big focus on managing byproducts (much more so than even Angel's) - after all, you want to terraform the planet, not turn it into toxic hellscape. Venting sulphuric acid into the air is not an option :) That's the beautiful thing about modding. You can tweak your experience to your expectations. When the first Industrial Craft mod first came out, a lot of people were "this is way too complicated". But for us, it was just the start. Compare IC1 to Gregtech New Horizons :D

More bean time

Yes. Fun.

But did you know the beans!

Yes you can I believe in you Do it!

@@bosanski_Cevap THE BEANS

There is an overlap between Genus and Insanity.

If you use chests instead of silos/warehouses you end a seablock playthrough with more chest kills than worm kills. Just Angels things

Is that the only solution?

Good luck.

Not enough beans in your life?

It's fairly accurate... but just inaccurate enough that you'd still have to be making sure about some things. Tier 3 recipes especially are the point where they are actually a bit more complicated IRL, but toned back to keep them less complicated than Tier 4 recipes, even though the "missing" materials (typically a gas or an acid) are in the game and used in other processes. Also, I know an engineer who, while he understands what's fun about the game, doesn't like playing it at all because of how close it is to his actual work. "Like a professional trucker playing Truck Simulator in what little free time they have", is how he described why he didn't like playing it. Might be the same for many chemists.

​@@martenkahr3365little does he know how much of the trucker sim crowd is actual truckers

LETS GO BEANS

Using trains isn’t just about throughput, it also means you don’t need to constantly add more belts if you increase production (to an extent) or splitters to merge/filter specific cargo constantly

@@alexsiemers7898 Not to mention the massive amounts of materials that get stuck on belts if you use them to go too far. It becomes wasteful really quickly, and scaling it hurts a lot.

@@alexsiemers7898 thank you for the enlightening insight

I think it's because so that it would be easier for the viewer to visualize it.

Well... it looks much nicer when you make yourself make things compact, and is a lot more fun. It tends to look a lot more like real plants :D It also means things scale a bit better - distances add up quickly, even if you have an infinite planet. And landfill production makes it slightly more annoying to expand.

I'm happy this is out, you make good content keep it up and thank you

Why I foud a comment at 7(now 8) like at the first place?

I've got a bit over 400 hours on factorio. Started playing in 0.14. I have all the achievements. Fastest game finished is 6 hours and 40 minutes. I've got absolutely no idea what is going on since the 5 minute mark in the first video. All I know is beans will rule the world.
