I think 10 engines/14 boilers/1 pump is 'optimal.'

Is there any trick to keeping a steady supply of plastic and batteries? Is the logic system worth using? Trying to figure it out but I'm not sure if you just set it up based on what you want in a box or if whats in the box enables/disabled the smart movers?

Decided to just use robot slaves to bus stuff in and out of the refinery. Thinking an alaskan pipeline back to the main base might be easiest for expansion?




e: protip: Use multiple cars for armor and equip a rocket launcher to take out bases.

So I decided to pick this game up as it looked pretty cool. however



What am I doing wrong? the mine won't mine cause the steam engine is not making steam, and the boilers won't boil even though they have water and I have dumped coal in

Put 2 pipes at the end of your engine and see if there is hot water or water at all flowing through the engine.

My Mod

Really nothing fancy, just adds barrels for all the vanilla oil products. Absurdly useful for logistic networks if put together right. If any intrepid goon wants to build on this go right ahead.

This is pretty neat. You should add water barrels.
