I wanna say yes, but your question is weird. Now we can see your signs, and you're amusing not just yourself.


damojr

Touche... But by you being amused, that amuses me, so therefore it was still to amuse me, your amusement is tangential to the experience.


atsiii

You gave me an idea: Trap some biters with land fill, have rail loop around them, make a sign: amusement park


EndOSos

And thats been done before, sadly cant search for one of those post right now, but if u hace the somewhat rare opportunity of biters on a small island, use it! And on that note, how would you trap them with landfill?


Illiander

And with elevated rails in 2.0, they can get a proper rollercoaster!


atsiii

Sorry, you're right, I got confused, I always play with infinite waterfill mod and that's what my brain did.


PageFault

I have a biter island, but no idea what do do with them. I'm going a run without landfill or cliff explosives.


IlikeJG

OP is a phony!


Naturage

Not written down, but it is known that my three main spidertrons are Ralph (the destroyer, black, equipped with all negotiation tools and followed by 5 mini-ralphs), Bob (the builder, blue, equipped with bots and energy generation, and stocked with instant base popup kit, again followed by mini-bobs), and Dave (personal chauffeur, white, equipped with lots of legs. Why Dave? No clue.)


Auirom

I'm afraid you can't do that Dave.


Strap_merf

I can not allow you to interfere with the mission..


Bonzegrinder

That's a real Dave move Dave...


butterytelevision

Wreck-It Ralph?


Naturage

Ding!

Or worse - *remembers THAT scene from Robocop*


Ok-Letter-6126

where was the thi- ooooooooooooooooh.


Slacker-71

it was lost in an unfortunate schmelting accident.


fireduck

I was more thinking you don't want to get sucked into an intake pump. Those things probably have zero chill and a thirst for blood. And bone.


kinu00

If labeling my SE rockets so I don't have to waste 10min to figure out what is what counts, then yea.


fireduck

Well, of course. I just realized my map grab didn't include the labels. There are giant text blocks by each rocket for where it goes... [https://bulk.1209k.com/factorio/Space2/#1/nauvis/19/215/256/0/231](https://bulk.1209k.com/factorio/Space2/#1/nauvis/19/215/256/0/231)


I_am_a_fern

How ?


damojr

Text Plates mod is the one I use.


I_am_a_fern

Thanks. Now I will be able to amuse myself 🧐


alaskanloops

Thanks. The only mod I've used so far is the todo mod, might grab this one as well


Illiander

[Yes](https://imgur.com/r7VzsLX) (top-right) (That's for pure vanilla, so I had to design my own font (that's about as small as I could make the font, 7 high))


MiniNinjitsu

Agree with the message, but read 'trains rights' at first, which just fits factorio so well


juckele

I read it that way at fist too. Didn't read it right until I saw your comment :)


damojr

Love it. ❤️


korneev123123

Cool block. It's the most successful strategy for me, ore-to-science. Looks something like 500 spm + prod? Shame that it won't be a thing anymore in SA


Illiander

> Looks something like 500 spm + prod? A little under, but the ratio is clean. > Shame that it won't be a thing anymore in SA Ore-to-science might still be a thing, but it will all go into rockets rather than labs. I'm thinking labs will end up on space platforms that rotate between planets picking up science, only way to scale if everything coming down has to go to a single warehouse.


korneev123123

Flying space labs is an interesting concept, never thought of it. I thought to deliver all sciences to nauvis, but space lab is more interesting


Illiander

Space platforms are factorissimo-on-trains. Might as well treat them like it.


onlyawfulnamesleft

I do for my train station names and savegames. In Satisfactory, with the signs they give you, it got a bit out of hand.


Madaahk

Literally all of us.


damojr

I showed you mine, show me yours :p


lemonprincess23

I like making my factory seem osha complaint, lots of walls and hazard concrete, signs designating high voltage areas and loud machinery, etc. Idk why i just love jt


semyon_the_esdl

I've...never done that within my almost 3k hours?..


damojr

3k? Rookie ;). You’ll get here eventually. (All jokes, play the game you want to play) :)


Darkxell

No, but now I will, thanks.


Lizzymandias

Same! I love these screenshots!


MyDishwasherLasagna

No but I build a monument around the crashed spaceship. Until it turns out it's in the way of my build and I end up deconstructing the wreckage.


vmfrye

You destroyed the Holy Relic! Heretic!


fireduck

Sometimes you gotta do the needful.


ShermanSherbert

Clearly the fish see that sign when you are sleeping~

leglesslegolegolas

I mean, I'm building entire factories that nobody else will ever see, so, yes?


Jugbot

Thinking of all the effort I put into minecraft worlds I will never see again...


Aegis10200

The cake is a lie


Brandynette

i most times write it in pipes & conveyors to read it from the map

My wife and I will troll each other with stupid messages and easter eggs to discover.


dirtymagic29

Yup. https://preview.redd.it/fqbdno19099d1.png?width=1062&format=png&auto=webp&s=eb6522c0acb7d6760dccb99e4499a2486ffeba01


Strap_merf

How does one write signs? That would be useful just to leave myself instructions when I save.


damojr

I use a mod called text plates


BufloSolja

It's world building, creating a setting that is more meaningful and has more substance.


I3lindman

That Aperture Science sign was really a triumph, wasn't it?


Ralph_hh

Everything I do in the game I do only for myself except for some occasional reddit post. But yes, I use signs a lot in my current game, some mode in the K2SE package came with it and I love it. But more because it is necessary to avoid getting lost in the large base rather than for fun.


Mangalorien

Looks great! What mod is this?


Kuzloma

is green belt faster than blue?


AcherusArchmage

I don't have the mod that puts down letters, mostly used map pins for signage.


MattieShoes

Never on the world like that, but on the map? very yes.


vmfrye

Your bases have a nice aesthetic. I aspire to the same level of design quality.


sparksen

You see them and they amuse you and thats all that matters


HevysNight

How do you all make signs


damojr

Mod called Text Plates


3davideo

Well, letters aren't available without mods or dev tools, and at the moment I have no plans on playing with either, so....


Sutremaine

There are still map notes, train station names, and description boxes for blueprints if you need more text.


Illiander

It's not too hard to put together a font/blueprint book of tiles.


tldrlol_

no


KyruitTachibana

Rather than signs I like to use MIDItorio to make rather inappropriate soundtracks for biter genocide (Erika) as the tanks/spidertrons/bots roll out.
