This is also a downside as there are more belts used and therefore more room for belt-buffer and everything is less compact. 0 reviews that are not currently recommended. All production. Privacy Policy. That means that a splitter connected to two input belts will evenly distribute those items onto the the two output belts. - A throughput limited universal balancer may only have the capacity for a few unused outputs. If a universal balancer is throughput limited, the bottleneck may be in the loops or the balancer itself. Most likely you will need dedicated iron/copper smelting for green circuit production since so many things take them. Frankfurt (Airport), Hamburg What are the most popular bus routes from Hamburg? The Steam Community of Rust shared some insights on how to design and build your main bus. There are alternative designs, for example, using splitter priorities to fully prefer the setups near the start of the main bus and only allow materials to go through to a later setup if that earlier setup's needs are satisfied. How Many Lanes Should A Bus Have? : factorio - reddit by Miravlix Thu Feb 07, 2019 11:19 am, Powered by phpBB Forum Software phpBB Limited. Bowling. Bus or train from Hamburg, timetables and tickets - GetByBus One downside to this can be that all resources are used up before every machine gets fed. I tend to only use main busses when bootstrapping up a large train-based base so just iron, copper, steel, green circuits, and maybe gears. spaghetti for everything else. For the belt furthest from the assembler, split off green circuits. I've never been a fan of the central bus. If you look at popular bus designs most of them seem to have 4 belts with 2 spaces in between. Putting a lane-balancer after a split-off is not necessary most of the time as the rest moves on if the belt has no draw or if only one lane is used. Hamburg, Bremen By rejecting non-essential cookies, Reddit may still use certain cookies to ensure the proper functionality of our platform. It is advisable to leave space between the groups of belts of one item for underground belt to surface and for other things to cross the bus. When more than the number of allowed outputs backs up, the universal balancer behaves like a normal balancer, and may not balance properly. for example, there will be dozens or trains that will want to get at the green circuits, so I will need train wait platforms but I'll need so many of them (have at least one wait platform for each train that wants green circuits just in case of bottlenecks) that there will be a whole grid just made up of wait platforms that not much room for actually making the circuits. These items are often just put into chests for personal use rather than on a bus. Amsterdam, Hamburg The orientation of and how wide the players monitor is also plays a role in this decision. What should I put on my new main bus and how many belts of each item? I dont make any two buses identical unless Im following a blueprint for some starter base. 0eNqVld9ugyAUxl/FnKstwRbwT1sfY7fL0mhLHIlFh9DMGN99qO1mWrrCFfHI9+NwvgP0UFSaNZILBVkP/FCLFrL3HlpeirwaY6prGGRw5lJpE0Eg8tMYmGeEFAYEXBzZN2RkQB7Kt4WSWpVcsdNC1lRcKSYXsshBpmQu2qaWKixYpRbiePhAwITiirN509NHtxf6VJhlMvKIgaCpWyOrxbiqQYUUQWeGeBgTusFQdwz5BxN5ZxPZMLE3htowiTMGXykIjlyyw/wrtjBT70LdQKkFuvmFamO7LGVtxidY01bXXqq1avTYNXfgrW8hsa2Ou/v2tqS1SubEiA1BsKcX+HnVCPH1lzhAqb8X+M8KLh44QSKHIl6sxavEIVHvQ2I3JvEx13rMSOqCwBeEPYuN72as9wbZ+p5OgzEX7HQZZ4tnBkGVG52J0XDaUyB5+amCl6IL1nqtBf/SbE9fg9xMPTPZTuA0jmmabiihu2H4AQXcOK0=, 0eNqVlNFugzAMRX8F+WmTwkpSSlc+Y6/TVEEbdZZoYMGphir+fYZOHVrTijwhQu7J9Y3xGcrK6caiIcjPgLvatJC/n6HFgymqYY26RkMOJ7TkeEWAKY7DwmVHrKAXgGavvyGXvQhQvk2UyqtE0seJrKmQSNuJbDlDRrYwbVNbiktd0USc9h8CtCEk1Jeix5dua9yx5GNyeY8hoKlbltVmOJVRMW/t+JH2g6F/GDUbkzygLIPNLH2YNBijfJjVbMzVjIA9Wr27fFIeZnZ707cJvaweuFpfCY6v2B5szc/HWQ++ftumdtS4oUFuuK+hoSU+d5sZ9cXXAqUPIZPA3L1GpAy9Pb8ZFRx38pc2mjthy+BO97tLQ+L2tpNcBXSk30QWWov3p5XrwBHCFJ5t4xzMJxNeQFWwjNdUPFYUWTx8UvRUdtHCLZzBL6e36jkqeetJ23bkZmmqsmytpNr0/Q+uzw2D. This Factorio Base Tour showcases a magnificent 5.2k SPM (Science Per Minute) Mutliple Main Bus Megabase made by Hornet! Players sometimes choose to only build on one side of the bus until they can estimate that they won't need more belts on the bus. Mad respect. The output from putting them on something like green circuits feels impressive because of the output from so few assemblers, but it's much more effective to multiply blues, then reds, before greens! by RLS0812 Thu Jan 31, 2019 3:22 am, Post In Factorio, having a main bus is an advantage, however it must be well-designed to make sure that it could be used properly and efficiently. through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. The base uses a combination of Solar and Nuclear power to supply the whopping 30GW of needed power when the factory is going full tilt. You especially want more gears and iron plates because that's what your betls cost to produce. To be throughput unlimited, a balancer must fulfil the following conditions: Balancers often do not fulfill the second condition because of internal bottlenecks. by Rjskeet Thu Jan 10, 2019 1:55 am, Post - If you believe your item has been removed by mistake, please contact, This item is incompatible with Factorio. there is even enough iron left for "buildy things" (belts, etc). This indicates not enough products being produced to meet demand, this can be remedied with adding more lanes with corresponding more production further up the chain of production. When one wants to use the items on their bus one could directly take items off the bus as if it is just a belt, though that would mean an extremely long bus and useless lengths of other belts. Do you want your bus to be big enough for 1 rocket but no more, or what is the maximum width you plan on using? Definitely 4 green circuits. Raw materials such as Iron, Copper, Oil etc are delivered via trains and are then turned into all 7 types of science using a large main bus. Post all other topics which do not belong to any other category. While I might leave room for 4x iron/copper, 2x everything else, the setup normally doesn't live long enough for me to flush it out completely. How many main bus lines do you generally use? I'm not a fan of linear buses, but I would urge you to plan out a production target and design according to that. Munich, Hamburg I think this would be adequate: Oh, I already have blue belts. While the core gameplay is in the form of the freeplay scenario, there are a range of interesting challenges in the form of the Scenario pack, available as free DLC. by Hannu Wed Jan 30, 2019 7:28 am, Post For green circuitsi never go more than two for my starter base. This is the case because they use more splitters than the minimum required amount of splitters for a throughput unlimited balancer. The design shown here makes sure that the belts on the right side are filled first, so belts can be taken from the right every time without the need to further rebalance. Hannover, Hamburg Belt balancers utilize the mechanic that splitters output items in a 1:1 ratio onto both their output belts. One of the most notable designs include the use of conveyor belts. There's a lot to consider when building a main bus. These start out as iron chests, upgrade to Passive Providers, then to Requesters as earlier belts are phased out.

Putting a lane-balancer after an inherently balanced build that produces the item is also not necessary as then half of the production pauses and the other half fills the moving lane to saturation. Yea, that's fine, to make gears where they are needed. Readers ask: Factorio Main Bus Guide? - Bus foundation Groningen, Hamburg The balancers/taps get very large above 4 since your next logical jump is 8. Lubeck, Hamburg Make sure to watch through for all the little details!Download the save and see more info for the base in the reddit post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/mef5ui/my_first_megabase_5200k_spm_beltbus/Stay up to date with new releases by Subscribing.Support The Channel On Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/Xterminator5Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/xterminator5Discord Group: https://discord.gg/0rIlqgn3wPmrmtWmMy Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/Xterminator5My Website (Blueprints, Mod Lists, \u0026 More! - Add more production to fill your belts with intermediate products: Copper & Iron Plate, Steel, Green Circuits, etc. These balancers can balance evenly between any inputs and any outputs. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/ =754378586. When one doesn't have enough production to saturate a belt (or splits it into more) then this can be called a "fake"-bus as it can not be saturated. - Hamburg, Berlin (Airport Schonefeld) Each of these is essential to your main bus design: Iron Plates x4 (recommend x8) Copper Plates x4 (recommend x8) Steel Plates x1 (recommend x2) Green Circuits x2 (recommend x4) Red Circuits (Advanced Circuits) x1 (recommend x2) Blue Circuits (Processing Units) x1. Input balanced lane balancers draw evenly from each side of the input belt, while output balanced lane balancers output evenly onto each lane of the output belt. As others have said the main bus simply acts as a buffer - remember that it's not your resource pool. What bus companies operate the routes starting from Hamburg? You'll get more benefit from your modules if you prioritize using them for more expensive things first. Other times, this is not an option. is the fix to just have much larger grid sizes to account for the wait platforms? Balancers also use the mechanic that splitters take an equal amount of items from both input belts. Now red belt can span 6 tiles, which is pretty good for parts of the bus. For the belt furthest from the assembler, split off copper plates. You're going to need more than a single belt of iron and copper. Any arbitrary amount of input belts should be able to go to any arbitrary amount of output belts. Hamburg, Flensburg This item will only be visible to you, admins, and anyone marked as a creator. What should be on main bus Factorio? Place 2 rows of belts along the assemblers. 3 is not wise since it is hard to tap properly and rebalance. - Using a non-prioritizing split-off will only distribute the shortage, not magically create more production. Place these one tile away from the Red Science output belt. The concept of a Main Bus is to put the most used and useful ingredients in a central spot to use for assembling machines. if its easier on the group to explain, I'd be happy to be suggested a video that covers such dilemmas and any others that I'm not yet imagining.

Grouping differing items together can cause problems when splitting them off, hence only groupings of two differing items is recommended. Having smaller groups of only one or two is also not a bad thing. For very large amounts of items railways may be a better alternative that can not only carry large amounts of ore but also the intermediate and end-products. - Just found you on Youtube last year.

For a comparison of belt, logistic robot and railway transport systems, refer to the Transport use cases tutorial. To balance belts it has to be made sure that the output belts contain an equal number of items from each input belt. Hamburg In Factorio, having a main bus is an advantage, however it must be well-designed to make sure that it could be used properly and efficiently. you can reduce the number of belts needed on the bus by dedicating production to the intermediates (typically the green circuit requirements for other circuits). Hamburg, Siegen Done! All production and builds in the factory are belt based and there are 4 identical, but rotated \"mini bases\" that each produce 1.3k SPM and fit into a corner triangle. Glad you found it useful!

If you don't have red circuits yet, don't worry -- you're just planning for the future! by MobRules Thu Jan 10, 2019 5:12 am, Post It will just depend on you on which design you would do as long as the conveyor belt is included. Provide all of their own modular factories and feed them with trains, and merely replace a certain part of the build once it runs out. at minimum put 4 productivity 3 modules on the rocket silo for to reduce supplies needed for the rocket by 40%. Steel is usually the one I'm short on. Using iron plates as index 100: Copper: 78 Steel: 7 Plastic: 15 Coal: 13 Iron Gear: 6 Electronic Circuit: 38 Advanced Circuit: 6 Stone Brick: 2 Note that this is for science only. Some people build these assemblies off to the side, or transport these products by train as they run out of space near the beginnings of their factory. You need to sign in or create an account to do that. All rights reserved. Neatness matters! Green & blue circuits share a line going in. IMPORTANT: Guide will be updated for Full Release when I can find the time to do so! by Serenity Thu Jan 10, 2019 12:18 pm, Post Split off iron in two places (for throughput), and a half-belt of green circuits. Some of the most popular companies departing from Hamburg are: Comati PSG, DTG Deutsche Touring GmbH, Sindbad, Union Ivkoni, Winew and Rute Auto. There are numerous main bus blueprint designs you can choose from and use when in a match. These are being used to transport items and put some of it in the centre spot (which is the main purpose of a main bus). by Saemj Thu Jan 10, 2019 11:07 am, Post 1.2K 91K views 1 year ago #Factorio #FactorioBaseTour This Factorio Base Tour showcases a magnificent 5.2k SPM (Science Per Minute) Mutliple Main Bus Megabase made by Hornet! Same with the production that is to the side of the bus, leave space between the builds for later expansion or belts that go between, at least three, six to ten is fitting. This can be done to reserve room for later expansion, blueprint-ghosts are a good usage for that as they don't allow the belt to be filled with non-usable items. For n n balancers where n is a power of two numbers, nlog2(n)n2 can be used to calculate how many splitters are needed. What to have on the main bus :: Factorio General Discussions The priorities can be set in various ways but this should not distract from the fact that more resource input should be added whenever this becomes a concern. Please see the. How many bus stops and stations are there in Hamburg? Aarhus, Berlin - Hamburg, Skopje - Ideally, a balancer should be input and output balanced. Make sure to re-balance belts after you split from them. Bring the belt to the target lane, then split off, making sure you make the T-junction BEFORE connecting it to ensure that product fills only a single side of the belt. - Youre allowed to do your bus as you see fit. Main reason I run a 4/2/2 bus for my start base is that it allows me to produce continuously produce a SP3 and PM3 module in yellow assemblers and still have enough resources for 10/12/24 science in blue assemblers. Chests between each belt structure move items along as well as providing a collection place for pickup. When you find yourself needing an extra component that is used for very few items, (like stone, stone bricks, or coal), either run a line to the side of the main bus, ending it at the assemblers, or carry the materials in via robots & requester chests. Copenhagen, Hamburg Even if you only have 2 rows of green circuits, you might be just fine provided you can make enough of them, but most people do 4 for large bases. - You can replace splitters and undergrounds similarly by just placing upgraded versions on top of the old, (without the need to deconstruct them). Green Science will share the other side. That means that a splitter can be used to put an equal amount of items on two belts. Makes doing blue science and rockets later easier as well. it really stacks up over the 5/6 process steps to make a rocket. Sulfuric Acid: Used for both batteries and Processing Units (Blue Circuits). This item will only be visible in searches to you, your friends, and admins.

So, if only one side of that splitter gets input, as can be seen in the gif, it can only output one belt even though the side of the splitter is fed by a splitters which gets two full belts of input. - by astroshak Thu Jan 10, 2019 2:08 am, Post All trademarks are property of their respective owners in the US and other countries. you can also reduce needs late game with productivity modules. Look at how many different recipes use the thing you have decided to bus, and then estimate how much throughput your factory will need. Instead, I have a decentralized system where separate modular areas have inputs/outputs delivered/retrieved by train. I have made about two lines of iron and copper in my last few vanilla games. 1 full input belt gets split into two 50% full belts which get split into 4 belts that are each 25% full. Factorio main bus guide: Blueprint, design, alternative and more Id like to consider starting a train-grid factory that I see people use and I'm just theorizing that I'll come into . Two science packs made efficiently and traveling together on the same belt! Tutorial:Main bus - Factorio Wiki - With that, here's a main bus guide for Factorio, including the blueprint, designs, as well as alternatives and other important details. Balancers that are input balanced take evenly from all input belts/belt lanes. This may happen at a later stage in the game up to which a bus is a very good tool to reduce clutter. But when you discover the most important ones, you'll eventually have a grasp on it. It includes all the methods you need to take the designs and blueprints from the beginning on constructing your main bus, all the way up to using it to gain the advantage. And instead of rebalancing you can use priority splitters. Use your imagination to design your factory, combine simple elements into ingenious structures, apply management skills to keep it working and finally protect it from the creatures who don't really like you.#Factorio1.0 #FactorioFundamentals #Tutorial-----------------------------------------------------Want to help out the channel? Usually I make factories which consume 500 k - 1M iron plates per hour (4-8 blue belts), but three trains transport iron to green circuit factory, steel factory and main base (in which science packs are produced). And the character saw they that they were good and that they would help him on his quest to get to end-game. Belt Balancers - how they work and how to make them, Finding balance: A guide to belt balancers, https://wiki.factorio.com/index.php?title=Balancer_mechanics&oldid=183149. Factorio Base Tour - Hornet's 5.2k SPM Multiple Main Bus - YouTube Hamburg, Pristina Flensburg, Hamburg Espaol - Latinoamrica (Spanish - Latin America). Plastic x1 (recommend x2) Batteries x1. When you purchase (As shown). Search reviews. In this particular case, the bottleneck can be fixed by feeding the two middle output belts with more splitters. The following designs have the additional property that if the incoming belts are fully saturated then the split-off belt will be full (recall that a single splitter with a single full input belt will by default split off a half-filled belt). Place inserters as per screenshot -- only inserters need long-arms. I usually go for KatherineOfSky's bus, especially in vanilla or slightly modified vanilla play, which is this: My own personal Factorio super-power - running out of power. If you want to get away from spaghetti designs, building a Main Bus will allow you to reach a vast throughput of materials through your factory. Additional referece for all that is Factorio: Thanks to everyone who shares their ideas on the forums & YouTube! Your resources still come from a mine somewhere, so your bus will get thinned out after a while even with balancing. You could be the first review for Hamburg Legion Lanes. Split off a full belt of red circuits to go closest to the assemblers, since they are needed in highest quantity. Reddit and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a better experience. Some items are a good candidate to be built "on-site" meaning not carried by the bus but rather made where they are needed. Place a regular inserter and a long armed inserter to feed each Science assembler.
