Using RSO, Marathon, Shadowmegamodpack, bodsmods and no logistic bots.

Base guidelines:
No main bus
No plan ahead in terms of base layout
Only assemble each entity in one place, so I have to use belts to move it around.
Minimalistic start for each entity and only upgrade it when it becomes the choke-point.

Why?
Main bus belt and linear placement is freaking boring, my favorite aspect of the game is finding hard solutions for belt placement.
Also, I love to see how one entity assembly line affects the others in the chain, so sometimes I just stand there looking around. But in the timelapse it feels like just 5 seconds.....

Anyway, there ain't much marathon games around YT. Or with bobs mod. So this is a great addition.

Hope you enjoy and please give feedback. ^^

I must admit 20-ish minute vids without some kind of talking are too hard for me to stay focused on

Yeah, the original plan was to also make a version with a voice over, I wanted to play only 3 hours per week and then make a 4x voice over. But you know how addictive this game is, specially Marathon with Bobsmod in my case. So that will have to wait a little bit. I was almost doing 3 hours a day for some while. Already on 2 days and 12 hours of gameplay.

THANK YOU all for watching the videos, just boosted my channel from 100 minutes to 2000 minutes watched on the last month.

Amid this great warm welcome, I'm putting online the next 3 videos sooner than planned. Enjoy!!!

Updated video #1 with music, others soon to follow. Also planning on making a talked intro of 1 min, then a talked 5min video inbetween each timelapse.
