Before the big move to Oil Power and Fuel Generators, we need to automate all the buildable materials for such a facility. Computers, Circuit Boards, Super Computers, Heavy Modular Frames, High Speed Connectors, Motors and Crystal Oscillators. To make all of this in one place, I'm building 14 trucks and delivering everything I make by truck into one place.

I have a solution for too many trucks on the roads! When you drive a route and complete it, a new "Gold Pause Node" appears at the Truck Station where you pickup or deliver something. By interacting with it, you can set a wait time. I've done this before, all my stations are 10 seconds wait time, but I realized I can just look at what is produced in a factory, and then divide it by the inventory of the truck to work out how long it will fill. So for example, if we make 20 plastic per minute, and a truck can hold 4800 plastic, then it takes 240 minutes to fill completely. Wait time is in seconds, so that'd be 14400 seconds. So I've set that truck to 14000 wait time for instance. So it'll only pick up plastic when its practically full. This also cuts down on fuel usage, as the truck doesn't consume fuel while waiting.

@marcbennett9232 3 месяца назад

interesting! while it is waiting does it just load everything incoming into the truck? thats good information.

@G45H3R 3 месяца назад

I did something similar. what's the point wasting fuel when you don't have to? fill them trucks up. Less congestion too!!! I also found that using tractors instead of trucks cuts down on congestion as well and for most routes they are more than adequate.

@TheRezro 17 дней назад

I enjoyed this episode. It does show scale of your build, quite well.

@CelesteLovesThePRC День назад

interesting, do these timers reset between play sessions, or do they carry over? Because if they reset, I can foresee issues with them not delivering as often as they should if their timers get reset halfway through.

I've said this before about trucks. They are the perfect example of explaining basic quantum mechanics. When not in the area and simply watching from the map, everything is working just fine. Get to a point where you can observe them? "What is gravity?!" - Trucks

Isn’t this just an example of the observation effect, which can be relevant for many fields of physics ? I am not a science person.

@LastKnight0727 3 месяца назад

@@nathanrbourkeMore like the schrodinger's cat box. You assume both that the cat is alive and dead until you open the box and actually observe what state it's in. So if you apply that to the trucks. You assume they're working flawlessly, but once you actually observe them you see how screwed whole situation actually is.

Past Darren: I need some power. I shall harvest ALL of the oil from a crater and shuttle it across map in a massive train. All will fail if the train is delayed more than 15.3 seconds because I just love the rush! Recent Darren: I need some computers. I shall make 16,263 per minute and assemble them 3.5 miles in the air, separated by immense bridges just for funsies. Current Darren: I need some random parts. I shall build a gigantic logistics center and permit 37 trucks to likely become gridlocked whenever I decide to watch them run their routes in person. Of note, the factory MIGHT be able to make upwards of 10 computers before the end of the calendar year. Future Darren: I need some water. I shall harvest uranium, airlift it to the jungle, and utilize the residual heat of radioactive decay to incinerate wet leaves and distill the vaporized humidity. You have to say: the overachievement and dedication is certainly astounding.

Downloaded the game a bit ago and started having a go at it. That's when I discovered this Let's Play and I have really been enjoying copying a lot of your factories! Working on the Copper/Caternium factory right now (finally got started on the belt logistics). Only twist I put in my world is using trains rather than trucks...honestly it was the road building for me that just wasn't as fun. Thank you for these videos though! They ARE beginner friendly, even if the factories are HUGE. I love your logic, and the google drive files are incredibly useful when I am building.

@azhri1 3 месяца назад

I've found for such small loads that Tractors, with their ever so slightly better handling and smaller hitbox, work much better than trucks. They also have fewer visual glitches which I always find somewhat jarring. The only real downside is creating the paths as they tend to spin out when making turns. I think I'm up to 45 tractors doing most of my modular transport now.

@fromscratchgaming 3 месяца назад

Great video dude! Sorry, I don't mean to be pedantic, but a quantum particle changes its state when we 'observe' it because they are so small we have to use a detector that physically interacts with the particle and therefore changes its state because it touches it. It's not that it magically changes state when we look at it. Though I know you are using it as an example to explain how the trucks work in the game which is 100% how the trucks work and a good way of explaining it.

@adamwalker3560 3 месяца назад

To be technical, in some circumstances even looking at it would affect it, since those photons by which we would perceive would then be removed from the system, but that doesn't apply to quantum particle experiments, since things like that aren't observed directly. These trucks, however.... Lol

@SilortheBlade 3 месяца назад

A year or two ago I recall creating a modular factory where I used trucks to move everything over a road network. I even created walls to the trucks didn't fall off. But like you see when I was nearby the trucks seemed to run into ghosts of previous trucks and got hung up, and wouldn't correct. At one point I saw a truck get stuck, try to fix itself, then got catapulted half way across the map. I watched it soar through the air and could see it on the map trying to move back to it's route after it had landed. I then turned off the game and didn't come back for a while. I'm trying it again though as the design is so much fun. I am hoping the trucks aren't so broken this time.

I started a new save in the Dune Desert, and have stripped down all the basic machinery after I filled up 3 containers of the basics. Now I am adjusting the height of my base and wondering WTH to do afterward. I was thinking of using trucks, in addition to belts to bring in raw materials. I really like this design, though I doubt anything I make will look as good 😛

@_JustMonika 3 месяца назад

Suggestion: use tractors to match the small output of this factory. You could even replace some of them with factory carts. I really hope the devs will polish the vehicles, they are really cool to watch when not glitching. Dare I say even more than trains? Is this heresy?

@adamwalker3560 3 месяца назад

Just imagine his huge highways populated by hordes of factory carts, going to and fro.... Lol

@dimitri877 21 день назад

I think vehicles would benefit greatly from analog control input support, it's already much easier to control vehicles with native (Steam) controller support but steering and throttle/brake are still choppy (all or nothing). Having proportional steering and throttle/bake controls would make movements much smoother to begin with, at the moment the game only 'sees' controller inputs as a string of single key presses instead of smooth curves between min/max. A kind of system like path/block signals which trains use could further help automated driving, if you could restrict max speed at intersections with signs/road markers (mainly for self-drive mode).

@shimo_96 3 месяца назад

At the end when you're talking about how people move to trains because they're more reliable, despite having their issues, I agree, though I do think they're more reliable because, in the case you talked about, they do in fact have the ability to be set so they stay at their station until they're full. Having this same feature for trucks would also be amazing though.

@reverance_pavane 2 месяца назад

I did a truck-based build once and just found it super irritating by the end. Both in making routes and the unrealistic quantum observation effects. Now if you could lay and edit (rather than just delete) nodes manually trucks would be a lot more useful. But the game designers don't expect players to keep using trucks once trains are available so I expect they won't be fixing anything. Despite the fact that a factory city running with lots of trucks does look quite cool.

Random silly question. What's with the rubber belt going into your truck station at the power station? I know it's really irrelevant but I was just curious.

@WhatDarrenPlays 3 месяца назад

Hmmm… at my coal power plant, around the back of it there is one oil node. There is rubber, plastic and petroleum coke made there and each one is going into its own truck station there now. Hope this answers it!

@timid12 3 месяца назад

I'm somewhat confused as to the purpose of the makeshift factory above the truck stations. Is it meant to only produce things that are useful for the oil production factory you talked about in the future? Is it just going to stay as a makeshift factory in the future that will produce whatever goods you need in the moment?

@WhatDarrenPlays 3 месяца назад

To build fuel generators, you need Heavy Modular Frames and Computers. To build Refineries you need Motors. This is just a factory that will automate those things for me. In the future, once proper factories make these things it probably wont make anything, but be a place where trucks deliver goods to a central train station for this area.

@grantcawby7225 3 месяца назад

Maybe I missed it at some point but isn't the coal power plant still operating below peak capacity? Now that you have Mk4 belts and Mk2 pipes, couldn't you upgrade it and get more power out of it? Not that it would make enough to completely power the CCF but it would help your power woes a bit.

@WhatDarrenPlays 3 месяца назад

Already did! The issue is the jump from 270 belt to 480 is great, but the miners can only put out 300 until mk3. So the power jump was just 1200mw. When mk3 miners are unlocked, the plant will double its output from the current 6000 to 12000. But by the time we get mk3 Oil will be well up and running

@G45H3R 3 месяца назад

Is coal more efficient than fuel? I've been loosely following your builds - trying to figure most things out for myself - so I built a fuel packaging station down behind the coal powerplant. (which I DID build because it is f**king awesome). I just assumed that would be the way to go but I'm not so sure anymore. What is the hierarchy in terms of efficiency for ALL fuels?

This factory has nothing to do with Oil, it's just to create some components that are used for building machines like refineries, mk.2 poles, programmable splitters, batteries, and fuel generators. This will likely be replaced when dedicated factories to each of those components are built, and in its place, there will be a "Transport Hub" a place where all factory exports from Grassy Fields arrives and then gets sent out via rail.

@TheSpiikeisme 3 месяца назад

@WhatDarrenPlays I just mean that eventually you will make a new oil plant, and it will become obsolete with new recipes unlocked when you get the blender, and this factory will be replaced with a larger full scale factory. Will you remove these old favorites from the map? Or keep them all including the not very efficient oil factory and steel factory. You already have. Or you going to quickly unlock blenders and go straight to the advanced recipes when you build the oil plant to make something like 3000 rubber and 3000 plastic using the diluted fuel recipe with the recycled rubber and plastic recipes and the steel ingots would use the refinery to make iron instead of smelting etc.

With everything feeding one mfr each you wouldn't have any problems with throughout throttling with only using one truck station output.
