I do genuinely love how everyone's "smartest solution" is to build MORE infrastructure to prevent any "problems" 😏

Imma be honest, I don't understand people who don't put the aluminum water back into production. Doing anything else is literally more work

complications are just a skill issue tho

Crusader: Fair. My general problem is that my aluminium production tends to be quite far from any of my other factories.

Our job is to overengineer complicated solutions to simple problems.

Use the best that you have in reasonable supply, upgrade later if you need or want to

Personally, I skip mark 2 conveyors entirely

Because I rush to steel and steel beams are easier to make

Is it just me or slide on a belt and then jetpack makes me travel a lot faster than a hypertube. The hypertube seems so slow. What's your favorite way to travel between factories?

I have a single line with 2 trains on it.

World grid is there if you want it, but not strictly needed (its main value is elevation always matching provided you know to start with always a 1m or a 2/4m grid) especially as near the edges of the map it can be... incorrect.

is there a sweet spot for building material production when making my main hub rn im honestly thinking to use bare minimum to save nodes for other things and use storage to backlog enough for building and let the materials trickle back in over time

stark solar
#

It's hard to have enough storage to make stockpiling base materials worth it

#

Plus generally the later items depend more on those components rather than having new recipes from base mats

old widget
#

Imo there’s no spot for building materials, just focus on progressive production lines with overflows to dimensional depots

leaden ether
#

My first playthrough I just over produced basic materials and used the overflow into storage for the DD. So no real specific production just for building materials. Though this time I did make a small building materials only factory in the green grass area where I wasn't planning on really doing anything else.

abstract locust
#

stuff that gets dedicated to for building if i need more id build constructors or what not else where

THis did not include plastic rubber quartz or aluminum though. I'm still going to just bleed off overflow for those and the higher level building items (COmputers etc)

Independency is a gameplay strategy where factories do not depend on each other, removing the need to manage connections between them and when one factory breaks, others are not affected.
