Ep5 - Dynamic Belt Management - Factorio Space Age GSV

Long episode here, but as this is conceptually one upgrade to the base, I decided to keep it as a single episode. So what did we do? We designed a dynamic belt system that automatically tracks what we need to craft, what ingredients we need, and then how much relatively of various items should be on the sushi belts! There are multiple chapters, covering the various subsystems we put together: 0:00 Intro and global wire system 9:06 Assembly ingredients 12:28 Furnace ingredients 28:04 Belt demand 37:51 Buffer storage 48:31 Product storage and demand 53:57 Auto low- and high-water marks 1:05:36 Trying it out!
