It's beautiful!

The programmable assemblers look really useful for microbases and ribbon worlds.

Or even just for a minimalistic mall.

So true, I kinda hope they made update/add new achievements for Factorio. Like send the rocket with a maximum of 5-20 assemblers or something more realistic

yeah, a mall where assemblers could switch from making an end product to intermediate products for other items would be cool

The single assembler ME is now possible.

Finally all the computers I build in factorio are actually useful in game!

Flipping is an extremely powerful feature, I'm excited!

[–] fox@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago

really cool to read that section about flipping the SE assembler, it would be really easy to just say that complex cases wouldn't be supported and call it a day, but they went the extra mile and I'm glad that they did.
