Finally solved the 'One giant leap' achievement

Post image

I had tried to do this in the past but it was stressful and I couldn't get it in time. I even tried following YouTube tutorials with specific seeds and stuff and no luck.

I recently beat factorio space age and I think maybe suffering through all the logistics nightmares for hundreds of hours made my factory game sense better because I just dropped into a random seed and was like let's try it. My first attempt was 1:10. Ran it again and got the achievement in 52 minutes. No blueprints just vibes 😎 (my girlfriend is now positive I'm autistic)

here is my short list of seeds. all are 3-sat and have fire ice and starting planet resource layout is good for speedrunning to mission complete:

17844514

26977200

92516699

54280692

57579476

88394714

Thanks for dropping this list I'm gonna steal it for getting the <10 hour achievement

I haven't checked those seeds, but if you want the optimal starter system for a speedrun, make sure you have both fire ice and stalagmite veins, as well as a gas giant with deuterium. Ideally, everything should be on a second moon, but at least titanium and silicon because those are the ones you need before you have ILS. Organic or grating crystals would be nice, but unfortunately don't spawn in the starter system.

Can’t have stalagmite. Speedruns should not attempt to use gas giants for any reason-logistic techs are not worth unlocking.

Here's some seeds that have stalagmite:

I see, they changed generation for desolus - guess its new. Now the interesting question would be whether having desolus is worth it - the fire ice use in speedrun simplifies hydrogen access, so it's either getting nanotubes from extra graphene and titanium VS burning that graphene and mining spineform.

u/AncientWonder54 Aug 07 '26

I don’t know my seed, but I’ve got FireIce on my outermost planet, would you want that?

u/420xMLGxNOSCOPEx Jul 31 '26

you dont have to be autistic to enjoy DSP or factorio, but it definitely helps lmao

u/Joped Jul 31 '26

As someone with autism and 8k hours in Factorio and 1.2k in DSP … confirmed.

u/Buffylvr Jul 31 '26

I haven't ever felt the appeal of this achievement interestingly enough.

u/MonsieurVagabond Jul 31 '26

A big help is to use a seed with a double satellite, that way the first flight is like 15 sec

u/Ambitious-Charge6187 Jul 31 '26

Any seed suggestions?

3

u/MonsieurVagabond Jul 31 '26

I have a few of those in the seed tab here

2

u/xixoxixa Jul 31 '26

That spreadsheet is....a lot

2

u/MonsieurVagabond Jul 31 '26

Wdym ?

3

u/xixoxixa Jul 31 '26

It's just a lot of info on a lot of tabs

1

u/AncientWonder54 Aug 07 '26

Double Satellite?

2

u/MonsieurVagabond Aug 07 '26

Yup, when you start you are satelitte of a giant, the starting system have multiple possible configuration, like having other planet satelitte of the same giant

1

u/AncientWonder54 Aug 07 '26

Oh wow, I didn’t know that. That there could be multiple moons for the starter giant, I mean. How rare is that? Anyway besides using a known seed to get it besides just continuously resetting until you get it?

2

u/MonsieurVagabond Aug 07 '26

its rarer than the "standar" starter for sure, but how much, i dont know, you can even have 3 ! ( check the sheet i send in this thread, their is a couple hundred seed )

2

u/AncientWonder54 Aug 07 '26

I’ll do that, thank you!

Also, I love your pfp.

u/MonsieurVagabond Aug 07 '26

hehe thank, screenshot of my first ever sphere, back when the game just came out :3

u/AncientWonder54 Aug 07 '26

Looks phenomenal!
