So they can't see my 1.5 million hours on factorio?
You spent 62,500 days or 171.2 years playing factorio? Sounds like you’re close to ready for your first play through after you finish the tutorial!
Really glad someone did the math
average factorio player behavior
Yeah, because I was about to.
The earliest date I can find on the wiki is for 03 May 2013, so we'll be optimistic even though that the kickstarter ended on March 2013.
The maximum hours you could play if the game was running 24/7 since then is: 92,184.
This is just a fun math fact.
You assume the game can only run 24/7. The secret is to automate playing factorio.
Introducing the Construction Robot MK.2! A second instance of Factorio and a collection of LUA scripts controlling another player!
ᵀʰᵉ ᶠᵃᶜᵗᵒʳʸ ᵐᵘˢᵗ ᵍʳᵒʷ
Want more MK.2s? 20 instances lagging your computer? Borrow the computer lab overnight for enterprise-scale concurrent factory expanding service while you sleep! Lean into the fleet nature of multiplayer by connecting multiple labs with Clustorio!
The factory must grow
Still not enough? Try running factorio headless in the background of computers that people aren't really using! Pro tip: you can automate the installation process for maximum reach!
THE FACTORY MUST GROW
he's almost got his early factory running in bobangels!
My coworker asked to be Steam friends.
And I don't want them to know how many hours I have in Vampire Survivor.
So you beat space exploration, right?
...right?
Space exploration? Is that a thing I wasn't aware of or that I purposefully avoided because I sank too much time into factorio
I don't know anything about the space exploration mod but it sounds a lot like Dyson Sphere Program
It's a massive mod that expands the base game to let you explore other planets/galaxies with new resources and a massive tech tree. Launching a rocket from the base game is essentially the beginning of the mod.
So like Dyson Sphere Program?
DSP is great. After I finished my first sphere, I wanted to see if the universe had a border, so I picked an outer system star as a reference point and flew directly away from it and all the other stars...for hours before finding the edge wall.
thats about how long it took me to get the realistic reactor mod to work with my BP
I made a post on reddit a few years back on the off chance anyone wants to know more about it. I'd repost on lemmy but its looooooong
