When you FULLY AUTOMATE mathematics...

Part 2! Beltmatic is a factory game, similar to Shapez and Factorio, but rather than automating shape or resource production, you're doing hardcore maths!

25:20 him saying that he doesn't know how to make 19s while they are being made directly to the left of the main blue square got me

[GODCAT]

17:27 
Matt: we need 600's.
The game: You need 600 74's.

8:46 "Copying and pasting is fun"
Buddy went from engineer to programmer really quick

[EtheE]

26:15 I wasn't paying attention to the number and for a brief moment I was really impressed that RCE divided some huge number by 147 effortlessly in his head to figure out he needed 24s

Matt: "Multiplying is slower than adding"
Also Matt: *multiplies numbers by 2 instead of adding them to themselves*

This video is like one of those ads that play bad on purpose so that you download the game because you know you can play better

I spotted the 600 incident right away

Edit: thanks guys

[jimmymcgoochie]

I’m not sure what the worst part was- making 600s instead of 600 74s, multiplying two numbers instead of adding them or “I don’t know how to make 19” when there’s a production line for 19s RIGHT THERE…

POV:Me after grinding the game for 40 hours just to see this
My brain:Just relax
My conscience:Beat him up

So I've played this after the last video. It speeds up once you creat assembly lines like in factorio that produce full belts. Just keep track of the outputs per source.
I never fully calculated it, but since your combinators aren't limited resources, I just did 2 rows of 8. At large numbers, I'd finish off the last number before I finished the factory of the new one.

There's an option in settings that let you create L shaped belt lines. Very nice to make corners while zoomed out.

I finished all the achievements. Level 8 in all upgrades, maxed out all production, up to level 30 in the primary level system.

5 digit numbers get difficult, well most of them.

Overall I think the sources need to be all prime numbers, or multiples of 2.

You hooked me to this game with part 1, and now I went way further than you. Thank you for the discovery!

Also, remember that you can extract a whole lot of rows from one extractor, and do a whole lot of the same operation in parallel...;) (I know you already do it, but it can be pretty fast to clipboard a build of parallel adders, parallel multipliers, etc, to have directly a multiplier with 8x input rows of each and 8x outputs).

Also, if you shift + scrollwheel while in paste mode, it will scroll through your recent copies, so it's easy to have copied builds for adders multipliers etc.

Have a nice day!

There's no point to the 25 "storage" because the multipliers run at the same speed, so that storage can never deplete anyway, it just takes up space

[Fleetatious]

I couldn't stop laughing when Matt started making 600s instead of 74s

[Dicedragon]

8:08 who gonna tell him what he just accidentally made?

[SprayNPray-ye]

Matt can automate anything, I swear if he discover minecraft create mod.... wink wink

[Mike__B]

Watching the inefficient use of space hurts my soul, 10:00 Since you're multiplying 4x4 there's no reason why you can't rotate those multipliers and have one belt feed both A&B, the speed of the multiplier working is much MUCH slower than the rate at which 4s come out. Then you can squeeze a ton of 16s out by doing multiple versions of that.

[alexanderschmid]

I suggest a huge roundabout around the base to tidy things up

[mozvi]

4:06 "making backup storage" fully understanding that he makes 25's as quickly as he makes the 75's is hilarious

[bapbop]

25:20 him trying how to get 171
Me: looking at the 174 going in

6:34 the 26s are on the split 2 line going into the 15 factory, so you are getting the occasional 26+3=29. which then gets x3 for 87. 87x2 for 174, then plus the final 4 for the 178. we can see the whole line there.
