Efficient

  • paints whole shape versions of quadrants before quartering them
  • only crystallizes when necessary
    distributes paint for crystals across layers instead of along them
  • manual purge (send 86 instead of a shape) for more efficient changeover
    Modular
  • the CMAM can be converted to a MAM by removing two types of platform
  • platforms are broken up by function to make changes easier
  • only 10 distinct types of buildings, only 2 of which are variations on each other
    Potential improvements:
  • automatic purge on changeover, either by understanding and rejecting ingredients, by detecting when most ingredients have been purged, or with a timer
  • centralize crystal brain, reducing repeated circuitry
  • feed pins in from west side since they never need paint
  • add dummy car at beginning of train to make delivery platforms more compact
