I have just researched t1 modules and i dont know what them. Should i just slap production modules everywhere and try to deal with the intense pollution and the wierd ratios? Should i instead use efficiency to reduce the amount of bitters i need to kill? Or should i use speed anywhere where belts wouldnt be the bottleneck?

If using production modules, you’ll want to place them on the more expensive items being crafted first since that’s where they’ll have the biggest impact
Efficiency modules are great if you’re trying to avoid fighting the biters at all since they drastically cut down the pollution
And you can get away with not expanding power for a while if you put efficiency modules in everything
But production modules are great because you get free items essentially from them
Speed modules are also a good candidate for assemblers that aren’t crafting intermediate items, as productivity modules only work on intermediate items

remember that it's usually better to have two unmoduled assemblers than one speed-moduled assembler, for power and pollution reasons. normally I only speed module stuff if there isn't space to make more

Speed is also good in beacons, to offset the prod speed penalty
