Gleba can suck it, I want Consolde Commands

[SonofLeto]

After many attempts to understand and complete Gleba, Gleba can suck my collective and probably robotic Factorio nuts. What are the console commands to spawn Gleba science packs from a chest and how do I teleport myself back to my home planet.

Open the editor and place an infinity chest.

You can do it with console commands to give you an infinity chest in your inventory, but IMO it's much easier to use the editor.

"/editor" is the console command to open the editor.

This worked, thank you for saving me, you're a hero.

FWIW, if you're going to do this, I would suggest using it to try and help working through how Gleba works by covering production of whatever parts you haven't figured out yet.

Whenever you're ready to take another stab at it, I suppose.

gleba can get ridiculous with the spoiling mechanic, i figured that EVERY machine that works with perishables needs an inserter to filter spoilage, and a belt for moving it. spoilage can be burnt as fuel, turned into carbon or turned into nutrients, dont forget a buffer because certain recipes can produce a lot.

i made a tiny line that processes 1 science machine, and even then it gets backed up from time to time so i must go down, find an egg raft and kick start the egg farm again.

since the science packs spoil too i decided to move all research to gleba and all i need is deliver alll other science packs by platforms between planets.

Try making a tiny line that just keeps an egg in the system. If that's the only thing you're doing, the system will be less complicated and you're less likely to overlook the different ways your system can fail.

Then whenever you need a new egg, you can just snag the waste eggs from this system. Maybe even automate the process of sending them someplace that needs to be restarted.

There's a very good reason not to do this. I'll put it in spoilers to hide it, though, in case you want to come across it yourself.
Biolabs have "resource drain 50%" which means all science packs are effectively worth double value. (and they have more module slots so you can give them more productivity too.

Biolabs can only be used on Nauvis, so you're missing out on this massive bonus by doing research on Gleba.

In fact, even if agricultural science is the only one that matters, you are probably going to get more value out of your partially spoiled science packs on Nauvis than you would with fresh science packs on Gleba.

Turn things that can spoil into things that don't. Process fruits to get seeds then plant the seeds. The fruits don't spoil on the trees.

Create a surplus of biochambers. If you need an egg to restart, you can recycle some of these surplus biochambers until you get an egg to use to restart the cycle.

already have that keeping 10 eggs at a time in a loop, but somehow all eggs spoiled (turrets took care of the results)

havent made it that far lol

There are different kinds of game players. Some like games like Factorio and DSP, and some want to do nothing but kill bad guys with a FPS. In the same way, there are different kinds of Factorio lovers. Some like the change of pace that Gleba offers and some just can't find a wall big enough to bang their head against rather than visit there.

I'm afraid I'm with OP on this one. I'm not quite ready to give up on Gleba yet, but I can see those console commands and the infinite chest in my future.

Oh, and btw OP:

/c game.player.insert{name="agricultural-science-pack", count=1000}

after 3 failed belt attempts (still not show how i messed them up) I grabbed KOS's (Youtuber) blueprint book and plopped down the Gleba prints and worked no problem using bots, looking at it and puzzling it out I think I see where my belt designs were failing, so its not a problem with the planet just needing to step back and look at the problem in a different way instead of as Pat said banging your head against a wall. now if I start a new game will i use the print again probably if I fail at making my own design work after seeing how 'easy' it is.
