>Their pentapod eggs still hatch when the science is halted, and they still hatch eventually after running a while anyway
Solving the pentapod eggs is easy.
You just save one egg in a chest and use a ~12min circuit timer to pull it out into a biochamber, run the division recipe once (which gives two fresh eggs), one heading to an ongoing belt passing an incinerator (and the next belt segment circuit disabled), the other heading back into the chest for another 12 minute wait. If a space platform comes overhead with a request for agricultural science, then this shortcircuits the wait timer and the egg starts multiplying continuously. the incinirator's inserter is circuit-disabled, the belt segment enabled and the egg flows on into the mass-replication facility.

As soon as the space platform's requests are satisfied, the locks on the facility are reestablished and it goes back into the 12min waiting loop. The mass replicator ofcourse has to re-lock in such a way that it can fully drain. It creates some residual agri science which can just spoil, but ensure you don't get any pentapod eggs stuck anywhere.

>Their bioflux is made with half-spoiled fruits that have been running on the same belt as nutrients
No. You only start taking in fruit when a build needs to activate because a product buffer behind it is nearing empty. And you only buffer final products that can't expire.

>Their towers have no circuit logic tied to fruit usage
They do actually. Tied to all product buffers being satisfied. Once that happens fruit shuts off as well to save on pollen spread.

>Their science packs are always sub 60% upon leaving the planet
JIT creating them means they arrive 75% fresh on Nauvis, actually.

>They use logistics bots to filter out spoilage
You produce so little spoilage this way, that you actually CAN just use bots to handle the residual without needing a cheesily sized swarm in the ten-thousands.
>>
>>739191302
Gleba was the only planet with any sort of challenge, even if it was minor. Every other planet was wholely trivial. That said all the space age sciences are far too simple and are easier than yellow/purple.
>>
>>739193359
They really don't. Making rockets super expensive with a billion item slots might be realistic, but it slows the game to a crawl.

I'm going to shove a gleba fruit up your ass and stitch it shut
let's see how to like spoilage then
>>
>>739193723
My Agriculture Science never made it to nauvis lower than 85% spoiled. You need faster platforms and might want to get two going back and forth so that one is always at Gleba while the other is at Nauvis unloading.
>>
>>739193723
I just infinite produced things and just has the science run into an incinerator when not being loaded since resources on gleba are infinite.

>They haven't even made an outgoing spoilage belt into an incinerator.
Bots.
>Their pentapod eggs still hatch when the science is halted, and they still hatch eventually after running a while anyway
Who gives a shit, I just put down 50 laser turrets and have repair packs for the one in 1000 eggs that hatches. And I have a separate biochamber + circuits that preserves 1 egg if I ever run out of them all.
>Their bioflux is made with half-spoiled fruits that have been running on the same belt as nutrients
Enable if fruit count < X, simple as.
>They use logistics bots to filter out spoilage
Oh no, I'm using inserter + chest instead of inserter + incinerator, how horrible
>Their towers have no circuit logic tied to fruit usage and just keeps going at all times, ensuring fruits are always spoiling on the belt

>Botting spoilage

And you wonder why people think you're a retarded faggot. Just go back already holy fuck nobody likes you.
>>
>>739193976
>I just infinite produced things
That means you get a huge pollen cloud and are going to be under constant pentapod attack. Conversely, if you make a factory that can just 'go to sleep' when not in a burst of production for science or bioflux to export, or plastic buffers to refill, then your pollen cloud will consistently recede and once you've cleared a suitably large area around your factory, you can tear down most of your defenses - because attacks will simply cease outside of expansions coming near. Which are suitably solved via artillery.
>>
>>739194182
You know we have actual Factorio threads occasionally, right? You don't need to pretend to be retarded to keep the thread alive.
>>
>>739194113
>I just put down 50 laser turrets
Dirty secret: pentapod hatchlings don't aggro unless they encounter a military target within their range, and they automatically die on a timer. If you put your egg production in an isolated pocket area which doesn't have defenses near it and you simply never go near there in person, they won't ever attack anything. They'll just spawn, mozy around a bit, and die.

In my case its because its annoying to set up furnaces on every mining spot and have to move it out later on (even if this only happens like twice on a whole game) so i prefer to have multiple trains waiting with ore and just make a furnace line that i know will eat a belt worth of ore and store the plates for other trains to take where they need

The problem with Factorio is that it has zero replayability. Once you figured how to organize your shit, the game becomes boring. It's really just a puzzle game disguised as something bigger.

What do you mean? The base game by default is very simplistic. The ratios of miners : smelters : machines mostly fit perfectly. All of the early games once do. There are no complicated byproducts like in mods. 1 iron ore gets smelted into 1 iron plate. Simple.

What? It's complicated because it opens up a myriad of ways to solve any number of problems, from the conventional to the really exotic and impressive designs.
It's pure problem-solving and really satisfying when you get it right. Shit keeps me up at night sometimes cause I'm thinking of designs and getting excited

You don't really need replayability when a single playthrough of a mod like Space Exploration is estimated at 100+ hours; Nullius at 200+ hours; AngelBob at 300+ hours; and Pyanodon at 700+ hours.
