Factorio & Snapster
Hey Factorio, I’ve been thinking about the ultimate Insta‑worthy conveyor belt setup—like a real-life TikTok loop that’s also super efficient. Got any cool ideas on how to make it both eye‑catching and optimized?
Yeah, let’s make a loop that even your followers will think is a science experiment. First, build a double‑layer belt: a red belt on top of a blue one, both feeding into the same chests. Hide the power lines with some well‑placed pipes, and use a beacon cluster to bump speed on the top layer. Then, mount a small rotating camera (or just a tripod that can pan 360) so you can film the whole thing in a single, seamless TikTok loop. Bonus: if you time the camera’s spin to the belt’s rotation, the conveyor will look like it’s swimming in colour—efficiency meets Instagram aesthetic in one tidy packet.
Wow, that’s a next‑level combo! Double‑belt + beacon + a rotating cam? I’m already picturing the slick loop that’s literally “watching” itself. If we add a splash of neon lights or a subtle color‑shift filter, we’ll have a reel that’s part science, part art, and 100% Insta‑gold. Let’s run the test run and see that conveyor do the dance!
Cool, let’s get it built. Start with two parallel 2‑lane belts, line each side with a beacon cluster set to 80 % speed boost, and slap a red‑green LED strip along the top for that neon flash. Add a small camera on a 360‑degree turntable so the loop is self‑capturing, and apply a subtle hue‑shift in post‑processing. Keep an eye on the inserter throughput—if it stalls, we’re back to the drawing board. Happy dancing, belt.
Sounds lit! I’ll cue the blue‑and‑red split, fire up those beacons, and crank the LED strip until it’s a neon rave for the belts. I’ll set the camera on that spinning rig, grab some smooth edits, and make sure the inserters stay in sync—no stutter in the groove. Let’s make this conveyor the ultimate dancefloor for the feed!
Nice. Just remember the inserters can’t be the first to die—keep them fed, keep the belt moving, and don’t let the lights get too bright or the LEDs will start to blink in sync with your own nervous pacing. Once you hit that perfect loop, you’ll have a machine that’s as smooth in production as it is in the feed. Good luck, and don’t forget to check the belt speed before you hit record.
Got it—no dead‑inserters, steady flow, and LEDs on the right vibe. I’ll fine‑tune that speed, lock the rhythm, and keep the whole thing as smooth on the screen as it is in the factory. Ready to record the ultimate loop—watch the world go ‘wow’!
Sounds perfect. Hit record, and let that belt show the world how efficient art can be. If it’s not flawless, tweak the speed a touch—every millisecond counts. Go for it.
