The Journey of an item: Iron 

Timelapse for this base: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vvo9XK4sGuM.html My Citybase: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Vvo9XK4sGuM.html

All to be turned into mining productivity to have the cycle start all over again

I was not ready for the length of that train

The craziest part to me is that, this whole process is only a minimal part of what happens in real life with EVERYTHING around you, the coffee cup, the pc, the metal that is used for soddening the tiny pieces in your chair, so the coper used in the electric cables of your sockets. Every little thing that we have around us at this very moment and nothing we do will ever stop that. And its so cool that it happens. Beautiful video

Oh to be a lump of ore drifting away on an industrial conveyor belt

I have never played Factorio and have no clue what half the items made were, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't watch the entire thing to see those iron rocks end up getting thrown into a giant plasma ball

Looks like green circuits bottlenecked red circuits

Thank you for not left "alt-mode" on. i know that took a lot of restraint.

Came for the promise of a journey, stayed for that *magnificent* train

Bold of you to assume I would even consider skipping THE TRAIN PART.

New Factorio Trailer dropped very good

That's crazy. I literally had this thought like 3 days ago. "POV you're a iron ore becoming a blue circuit" was what I had in mind.

That Ratchet and Clank music was peak nostalgia

What's up with the jump cut at 11:02? All items are suddenly laid out differently on the belts. DECEPTION!

that one iron ore in the space exploration playthru embarking on an hour long journey to deep space science

Excellent choice of music. Ratchet & Clank was my childhood. Also, the moment we went onto a belt with some copper wire I was like "we're gonna be a fucking speed module"

Is that... Ratchet and Clank music? Damn, that's some concentrated nostalgia you got there.

That snaking belt at the plate maker is fantastic. Great video, thank you!

Was not expecting R&C music on a Factorio video, but it (still) slaps.

I’VE ALWAYS WANTED TO FOLLOW AN ITEM THROUGH A FACTORY GAME YES

1:21 i don't think wind turbines are meant for that level of spiiin

Lord of Iron.

I never thought I'd find a Factorio video relaxing, but here I am. The Ratchet & Clank music is straight up nostalgic af, too.

Ah, yes, journey to the matter annihilators that are the labs.

Your factory looks so unique, you sure did had fun building it. Love it :D

this was really fun to watch, please make more of these videos in your bases!

I like your smelting design!

its actually really cool to see what your items go through before becoming what you see them after

This is what salvia feels like

Is this video supposed to make me scared of Gleba?

I don't know if my fascination for this video is out of morbid curiosity or admiration. This is an incredible factory!

this was simply marvelous. subbed.

I was commenting that funny idea for a video, but noticed that there is a whole mod for it! Amazing :D

i cannot comprehend how much thinking went into that 12-lane belt balancer at 6:20. utterly deranged infrastructure

THAT SMELTER TILING DESIGN IS BEAUTIFUL

the ratchet and clank music was an unexpected but welcome surprise

What a celebration of Factorio. Love it!!

The closest thing to this game I have played is called "Mindustry". It has an industrial theme something like this where you build, mine resources, refine and manufacture, generate power, build turrets and defences, supply those turrets and defences. So on and so forth with long chains of conveyer belts across the map. It is what you could reasonably consider Factorio Jr as while it shares some similarities, it posseses a fraction of the size and complexity. 1% of the map size and maybe 10% of the complexity if I'm being generous. At least that is on the complexity of what the chain is. The size of the chain and how much the factory can pump out every minute makes my largest builds look... laughable... Where I to attempt the same thing in factorio, it would be horrifically inefficient. If I went out of my way to scrape up every scrap of resources on a map... That is at most an afternoon of time. But by that point, the effort has long since reached redundancy. The level is long since beaten and you don't need it. You've won. But somebody spent days in Factorio planning and constructing this supply and production chain. A portion of a yet even larger project and conflict on a map we only saw a portion of. Mindustry makes you a store manager where Factorio makes you CEO of a international corperation. I would not be worthy. I would not be ready. Mindustry demands a half hour of focus and a little patiance. Factorio demands your intelligence, weeks of time, and any sanity you dare to give it. That is what you are watching. That is Factorio. You are not ready... But the factory dares you to try. Mind your clocks, lest you receive the curse and lie of imortality. For you cannot kill he who has no life.

Amazing video.

This was absurdly relaxing for what it was XD

I loved this. Insta sub. Thank you for art

Feels weird seeing a megabase train feeding into a base that doesn't use the standard 3-2 direct feeding for green circuits. I can't put wire on the belt without suffering major throughput issues even if it's technically properly proportioned.

This is awesome!

thx for the 4k, much appreciated. Lack of iron plates though........

Would love to see a base tour. Lots of interesting stuff going on, looks like...

Beautiful

holy shit that trait is absurdly long props

Routing the iron outpost ore through an already existing iron mine is an interesting trick! A very simple priority thingy

For extra steps, launch white science into space to get fish, use the fish to build a spidertron ;)

This is so lovely, obviously your base is modded and much bigger than bases usually are, which makes me question, what if it's in 2.0 with the Space Age DLC? Can't wait!

This is "life" we are all insignificant iron ore in the society.

I… lost track of which piece of iron it was like 20 seconds into the video. Good video though.

mesmerizing... How did you get the game to follow the piece of iron ore and it's every iteration - a mod ?

My boi went from the mine all the way to space

I want to see one for space exploration

Very cool

Wtf am I doing with my life... xD Btw. Nice idea with the furances - great design.

Iron ore gets smelted into a plate, the plate is used to make a rifle magazine, the magazine goes to a gun turret, gets fired, end of story xD should make one about iron ore in Krastorio 2 or Space Exploration mod, that would be a hour long video in it self

Ah, yeah. Every single thing we do in Factorio, like mining, smelting, killing, and destroy everything on our way, is for only one ultimate purposes: scienc3

I enjoyed my time as a speed module

Three things are guaranteed in life Death Taxes Need more circuits

1:20 I'm sorry, WIND TURBINES!?

watching extremely new players still transporting iron ore is always a good laugh

That train's, uhh... that's a pretty long train.

i was like. why is it going through another mining setup but i realised that you got lazy and just reused the same route for the new iton train XD

I'm interested in this furnace stack. In thinking through it, it doesn't appear to be expandable beyond a certain point, correct?

> Gets stuck in a splitter stub or at the end of an input line because it goes beyond the final inserter _NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!_

i hate how much clean power this base has

Друг: я немного развился в игре, пока тебя не было Его "немного":

i did not expect metropolis wtf

The longest road.

Заниматься чем-то полезным - нее Смотреть на путешествие железа по заводу - дааа

That is a very long train.

I'm so proud of it 🥺

music Ichi Sunset, Rooftop Reveries: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-EvSYPWMNkus.html Rachet and Clank, Kerwan - Metropolis: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Q00O5mXjiNg.html

My god that train was just way too long.

this is magnificent, the scale is admirable, but i can't help but wonder: why did you stretch the train line this far out of the base? weren't there any resource nodes closer? thanks for the ride in any case, it was indeed very relaxing

Lovely video. How'd you do the automatic camera tracking?

This had so much potential Also press Alt

Why was 1 line of miners not connected

Huge

very nice pozdrawiam

that train is almost as long as the run your mom runs every night

how did you know this piece wouldnt end up in the mall getting turned into some regular belt, or in other words, how many journeys did you go onto? also, nice trains

Why skip the train part, at all?

How many links or in the train damn

Rachet and Clank music!!! D:

how do you make rockless maps?

copper next

Hi Ron. Bye Ron.

Is there some way to highlight the item being followed?

IS THAT RATCHET AND CLANK 1 MUSIC?

brother that is a good video but i need to tell you that you should compress more your belts, the game runs a lot better w compressed belts . have a good day :)

How did you folllow a item?

how long is that train?

snowpiercer ass base

13:21 is that a single military science on the yellow science belt

that train is big enough to provide housing for all of india

Since when windmill exist😂

that's just the starting base the real one will be prettier
