I'm watching out for your part II on how to build these launchers, junctions, etc. This is a sweet use of hypertubes and priority power!

This has to be the best use of hyper tubes I've ever seen. I have also noticed the lag when crossing biomes at high speed.

One of the best edited and narrated videos I have seen. I hope you have fun making them because I sure have fun watching :)

Thanks very much! They are certainly fun to make - although very time consuming! 😁

I really like how you can control the route you want to take using the same entrance. Very nice video, I will definitely be looking out your next ones!

Thanks KZread for the random recommendation, this was awesome, as are your other two videos showing how its done. When 1.0 drops im definitely using you for inspiration to make a hypertube network, which I've never tried to do before. Thank you for sharing!

I still don't get why they don't just introduce Hypertube boosters so people can stop building those stupid 100-entrances-in-a-row boosters. *sigh*

Well, the original launcher/cannon was not meant to work at all, but it's become a feature users love so they are paying more attention to the physics behind it. You can do a pretty compact launcher for a short to medium distance speed boost. I do wish the default speed was faster, or that there was a standard accelerator module.

I was already building a hypertube network in my most recent play through, but seeing how well this seems to work when combined with the priority power switches, I'm excited for Update 8 to hit the Early Access branch!

Would love that part 2. Nice job and great inspo :)

Yep great video and anymore would be really helpful. Already thought about inline cannons, which you've implemented, and they look to work well. Keep up the good work.

Hey, just FYI: If you rotate three hypertube entrances in an equilateral triangle you can junction any entrance to any exit. The way to do this is a bit tricky, but once you have one setup as a blueprint you can stamp them down very easily. The way you've built the junctions in this you can't have a network, only a hub and spoke design. Having any to any transport without having to go back to the hub is very useful, you can have a circular hyperloop network around the map with spokes going out. The way to build it: 1. Put down a foundation down in the blueprint editor, and another on top of it. 2. Place a support one click in from the edge of the foundation. 3. Delete the top foundation, then start buiding another on top, rotate with ctrl down by (from memory) 12 clicks left so it's 60deg, then build your second entrance again one click in from the edge. 4. Repeat this process but with the top foundation rotating right rather than left. 4. Delete the top foundation, rebuild it at no rotation again, then blueprint it.

I do use T-Junctions, which can allow a ring network, with exits to alternate routes (see my second video for details). I will give the equilateral junction a go, as it may achieve the same thing with less entrances than what I currently use! Update 8.2 that just came out changed Hypertubes behaviour a bit and they're now less predictable - hopefully we'll see some more patches soon to make them reliable again.

@@DortamursHobbies Might be worth trying Y junctions, but with the branch exit one click closer,. When combined with the switches this would mean the branch might take priority when switched on, but get ignored when not switched. Combine this with switching clockwise and anticlockwise travel separately around the loop, and you get quite a good network system going.

Very clever! Had no idea this could be done using the priority power switch. Thanks for making the video!

Imagine if they introduced a Hypertube Splitter! That would be awesome.

This is such a good idea. Hope you will expand on this in the future!

This looks fantastic! I may actually use hypertubes now. Also, I noticed they finally fixed the Blade Runners in hypertube bug!

This is incredible. I'm streaming satisfactory at the moment and have clocked a few hundred hours into the game. I've never seen anyone do anything like this until now.

That chunky salsa is probably how this game would run _on new game start_ on my old computer with a GTX 960... So glad I'm on a 3060 now.

I just fling myself everywhere. So much infrastructure to travel via tube the whole way ;-; still looks amazing.

Super interesting and impressive, would love to see a part 2! :D The concept of charging a battery just long enough to power the launcher is already getting my brain churning with ideas

This is superb, without wishing to cast shade on other creators, this is comfortably the best informative content out there for sfactory. I don't understand why you don't have bigger numbers, please stick with it!

Recreated the priority power shut off for my hypertube cannon to shoot me back and forth across the map without all the tubes in between. Next, on to building a network like you have. Thanks for dropping the second video. This one is gold, though. Using the battery to make the tube turn off after you leave is genius!

This is really neat!

While this is pretty cool, cannons are still the faster way to go, especially because you don't load the terrain on long trips. Also much easier to build, plus you don't have to setup your routes each time before leaving a station.

Great showcase, subbed for more :D

Dude..... Your systeme is crazy O_o

Your world looks amazing, you need to do a show case video.

I never built out the hypertube lanes across the map. I built airports that launch you around the map. Depending on the angle, you can travel from one corner of the map to the other in around 20 to 30 seconds. If you optimize this approach, you can visit any location safely in 5 seconds without having any lanes. To ensure a safe landing, don't move while in the air, and don't spring into the tubes. You can just place a landing pad at the destination, and you are fine. Sometimes, I built a small curve of hypertube near the landing destination in the air to have more precise control of the landing location. This approach resulted in providing way more efficiency: 1. Setup. Fly across the map, die 2/3 times trying to pinpoint the location, and you are ready to go. Also saves materials 2. Traveling time 3. If you have a hypertube across one corner to the other, you can visit any location using a jetpack. Simply use your fuel wisely and press in the opposite direction as aggressively as possible to avoid flying into the void.

I'd like to see how you've set that network up! Great Video.

This is crazy wow!

This is awesome. However, I've found that there's a much lazier way to connect disparate areas, which is just launching yourself very high and fast into the air with a hypertube cannon in the general direction of where you want to go. I made a tower that was capable of launching me in 8 different directions. Just requires a little maneuvering with the jetpack on the way down.

i assume you used black magic to switch a single entry to different routes. please do make a video explaining how to set it up for us mere mortals.

After that 3rd 8-way slitscreen, I was just like "nope"... can't watch anymore.

This mechanic was long overdue. Now you don't have to waste so much power on hypertube entrances idling all the time.

I’d love to make a hyper tube network but even just getting started seems daunting. I wouldn’t know the first step to plan it out. A guide on that would be extremely helpful.

Following train tracks (or truck roads even) is pretty safe, and the infrastructure's already there assuming it's not just bare track that's been laid.

How is this better than a cannon at every major hub that can send you anywhere on the map without 10000000 miles of tube everwhere

@DortamursHobbies

7 ай бұрын

It's largely personal preference, but to me, the main advantage is that I can fire and forget, and I'll always arrive at exactly the right location. No manual steering, no jetpack/parachute needed. It's safe, and low risk. It is also faster, depending how you design it, because there's no vertical travel, and you can make the launcher as powerful as you want, whereas a cannon if you make it too powerful, you'll shoot off the map.

That is impressive. Can you please show us how you did the hypertube split junctions. And why do you turn the power of when you get into the hypertube?

@DortamursHobbies

Thanks! I am working on the next video, where I'll show you how to make junctions and launchers! The stored power is optional, to power the launcher temporarily - otherwise it's on all the time drawing a chunk of power.

Hi Dort, are the hyperloop accelerators the more solid loops? haven't played in ages. Are there issues with over or insufficient acceleration? would it be more efficient to place one at set intervals/distance along the path?

@DortamursHobbies

I'm using a line of entrances as an accelerator, rather than a loop. Things are more reliable in Update 8 so far, despite the game pauses and other bugs. Stay tuned for my next video for more detail on different designs!

So you turn on the power to a hypertube network just long enough to charge a battery? Then turn it off and jump in thereby saving power throughout the entire world? That's genius. I'm totally going to steal that idea and add it to my own world.

@DortamursHobbies

For the launchers, yes! It saves having so many entrances constantly running, especially if you like having a launcher at every major factory. I'm hoping to cover the concept in a bit more detail in a future video.

If the game would only add ACTUAL JUNCTIONS

if u come to a stop at juctions theres no issues :P

🤔 so we charge a battery for the purposes of letting it run out so we don't accidentally step into a tube? I'm lost on how you know which toggles to click to go to which places 😩

@DortamursHobbies

11 ай бұрын

The battery charging was mostly an earlier design choice so that the Launchers don't use power when not in use. When you have a Launcher at each factory, with ~10 Hypertube entrances each, it can dent your grid power. Ficsit demands efficiency, so the Launchers stay off when not in use. It does also prevent accidentally being sucked in and blown across the map as well. 😂 In my next video I'll go into more detail, including how I've named the switches to make setting the route easier.

Just gonna say in coffee stains defense. You are breaking hypertubes with the launchers. Id wager you are literally smacking the ceiling of how quickly any modern engine can load assets. You are practically teleporting at this speed. No matter what there will be a stutter.

@DortamursHobbies

Oh, definitely! Coffee Stain Studios has done a great job at catering to us trying to break things! But this video was made early in the Update 8 cycle, and there were BIG lag spikes when moving between areas. You'll see in my follow-up video (towards the end) that a cross-country journey is now not nearly as laggy - things are a lot smoother in the recent updates, albeit with a few minor slow-downs as it loads assets.

Was going to say the same thing as Ryan. It is a little disingenuous to say _”(Current build is) yet to be optimized.”_ 1. CSS has _already_ done the “big” optimizations: * Rendering of full conveyor belts was optimized in UE4.x with custom materials / meshes / shader(s), * Josh’s _Let’s Game It Out_ save game with * CSS is currently looking into bottlenecks with UE5. 2. It is a very low priority to optimize for a _few_ players traveling at _very_ high speeds. The game was _never_ designed where players could travel faster then what the asset streamer could support. Once we get to v1.0 maybe we will see more priority given to frame stalls?

bro people doing this and here I am struggling making rotors...

Why would you not just turn the hypertube network on/off at each end? I feel like it would take less time than charging for a few seconds at the cost of power draw on the grid but if your hypertube network is that big... You probably have power figured out. Or... just leave it on and compensate for it's total power draw, which is what I do.

@DortamursHobbies

The two saves I show in this video feature Hypertube Networks I created before Update 8, where there was no way to remotely turn on or off switches for junction routes, or for launchers. I have added Priority Power switches to the launchers and junctions since then, but left in the existing charging mechanisms. With Update 8, you certainly can skip the stored power charging for the launchers and just turn things off once you arrive - if you remember. :-)
