Warpzone 8-3: From HaulerBoi to Nuclear Power Manager 

Lol. Took me a minute but I love it!

So Long, Gay Biter!

I understood that reference!

Dude I've literally had a probability exam two days ago on distributions, why does this shit still haunt me even here 😭

@@SilverBoi because Dream made it popular to question luck, considering his one in a quadrillion "luck" speedrun.

@@SilverBoibecause it turns out math is really useful in the real world. :)

So, slightly lucky.

Probably the chance to find 2 reactors in the first loot chest was way lower then lol

Haha damn that got me too!

Came looking for this.

He just angry "Why this stupid two-legged thing is still there?!"

Just like in real life.

30:11 this is the message ?

fuel cells initially lasting like 1000% longer is quite a different order of magnitude to worry about than getting 8-12% extra fuel cells (eventually, you won't even get the bonus production bar finished before crafying 80-120 fuel cells without bonus)

Adding heat pipes is also a valid way to increase energy storage, the problem with a small steam buffer that is too small, is the lag between inserting fuel on reading out the critical steam value from the tank, and the time it takes for the new heat flowing through the system to reach the heat exchangers and produce new steam again. This problem usually surfaces when running at near max capacity, when you'll empty out the small steam buffer before new steam is produced.

dont do it! it WILL happen!

I don't think that's right; poioio96's calc is correct. (although I diden't double-check the calc, this situation calls for the binomial)

@@TomJerry12933 Yeah, at the time of the comment I forgot to take into account binomial distribution, so I'd say poioio96's should be the correct calculation! Running a calculation that takes binomial distribution in mind confirms it, the probability of getting 9 shiny uranium is indeed 6.71%

:D

The audio sounds muffled yea

it's been muffled in the previous episode too, the aspect ratio is off as well There's also horrble screen tearing

If anyone else sees this comment, can someone explain why both this one and his previous video are like this?

@@Pluranium_Alloy I figure it's just because he doesn't have that advanced a setup

I think Antipatience is preparing such a run, saw a glimpse of it on twitch

Handfeed only. He had train loops where he'd pick everything up from assemblers and drop them off in other asseblers on the loop

​@@MichaelHendrikswhere is warptorio 8-4?

Isn't that already up on his Factorionly Fans?

the video quality on his twitch vods seems normal so idk what happened

@@SilverBoi weird last video was the same

25:04 The average gain from 850 cycles is 5.95.

maybe, but the downside is more setup time and more teardown time when the time comes to move further away

The recording contained all sorts of weird things this time, including frames in the wrong order! IDK what the underlying problem is yet

yes, idk what yet

You sound like someone who owns one of those weather stones ;) Stone wet: rain Stone white: snow Stone invisible: fog Stone gone: tornado Etc

@@MichaelHendriks lmao, this actually sent me 😆 🤣 I'm so glad that you got the joke and didn't take it seriously

Our host here is addicted to hand-feeding

Annoyingly in warptorio, this is exceedingly hard. Having only limited space & only a few elevators, propably the full automation is in endgame (post rocket)

@@snowdrop9810 yeah you pretty much have to have one of the endgame factory floor upgrades to properly make a mall. Also the lack of space from the surface floor doesn't help either.

Not really, your best bet is to mostly automate everything. And you are pretty much limited to 1 belt of input. My endgame had the two mining outposts on iron and copper, and then I would use the warp platform to ferry the remaining resources into chests. But if you put several prod 3 modules in the factory floor beacon, plus prod modules in the machines, you can get some crazy good productivity bonuses. I think I ended with 5 prod 3s and 4 speed 3s, with the last few slots as efficiency 3s. I was still using burner miners into steel furnaces post-rocket, since all the extra mining productivity got that super fast, and the extra reach meant you could reach 7 furnaces on either side of you. My normal layout would put down 84 miner/furnace pairs (6 rows of 14), and that could fill up all the stone brick needs for a while. Similar concept for a coal loop. For uranium you have to use electric miners so I belted the ore back to the platform and had centrifuges there, then stored the rocks in a dozen chests. Oil would also go through the platform and I had tanks in several locations, probably about 30 by the end of the game. I think the late late game has train teleporters similar to SE's space elevator, but I never tried them out. My "game complete" condition was when I made the warp spidertron.

eventually, the final base will be fully automated (even nuclear fuel cell delivery to the basement), with loads of cool tricks going on ;)

well, it is intended to be played with manual warps anyway xD

It's absolutely possible. The minimum warp timer increases veeeeeery sloooowly. I have a save file which is at warpzone ~30 (~18h of gameplay) and the timer is still just 4 minutes (almost all warps were triggered manually). By warpzone ~20 I had the entire platform covered with gun turrets, flamethrowers & dragon's teeth. These defences easily survive until ~50 minutes after warp with minimal damage. If you don't wait until autowarp and don't manually warp like crazy, you should be fine.

The minimum timer doesnt go up past a certain number of uses, and scales with your time researched. You are meant and exoected to use it far more often than the auto-warpin the early game, which is mostly there to enforce the rules, instead of having you make a permabase camped 52867273572 tiles from spawn on your 4th planet.

​@@poniviI thought it was there so you couldnt speedrun ona biterless world?

Yes. You still do manual warps on some planets, but with the warp bullet damage you get your warp platform in pretty good shape. Normally you route your iron to from the smelting floor up to your factory floor, and then split it between there and up to the platform, where you automate bullet production. You definitely still warp manually on some of the "bad" planets, but at least half the time I let the timer run out, maybe 3/4 by midgame.

The density of biter nests doesn't grow out of control far away from spawn, allowing us to keep our mining setups out of the warp platform pollution cloud (preventing us from getting overrun by 1000s of behemoth biters)

@@MichaelHendriks aaaah, makes sense! Thanks RU-vidr Mike, excited for 8-4 :)

I know, still don't exactly know what causes the issue
