Factorio Rocket Launch Minimum Time (with Beacons)

This is a follow up to my previous video:
• Factorio Rocket Launch...
This time I did a proper screen capture. :)
Just slightly over 26 seconds (26:10) to launch a rocket.
Thanks for the advice from people on the Factorio reddit.

It's counter-intuitive that speed modules slowed it down!

Note that after retesting this, the official time is ~20.6 seconds.

What changed? Why the difference between test and retest?

[@urbanelemental3308]

I re-engineered it to maximize the use of beacons as suggested by someone else in order to try the meet the theoretical maximum.

[@drted]

Ah, are you saying there's a way to get more than 20 beacons around the silo?

[@urbanelemental3308]

No, the previous video did not have beacons.

[@drted]

Hmm, sorry if I'm being dense, but I'm confused. The video shows it taking 26 seconds but your comment says you retested it and got 20.6 seconds.

I can launch a rocket in twice the speed
with 2 silos

[@urbanelemental3308]

No you can't. :P You'd have to switch between the two can click launch... Therefore there'd be a delay. The point wasn't to see what was humanly possible, but what was the absolute maximum speed at which a rocket could be 'built' and then launched. I wonder if there's a way to just auto launch rockets. :/

urbanelemental tool assisted speedruns might ::))))
