tiny 90 SPM bootstrap factory

Post by __init__ »

  • Can be build incrementally while researching, thus a bootstrap factory
  • Self contained, thus no need for intermediate products on a main bus
  • Not included are: Miners, smelters, refineries, labs and a power plant
  • Compact, thus requires less material for logistics and defence walls
  • Requires only basic building materials, thus a less complex mall
  • Split in three blocks, so you can run trains or have roboports in between
    1. Science packs 1-4:
    2. Science pack 5:
    3. Science pack 6:

Nive work. I prefer these types of bases to the Main Bus/City Block types. My science pack 1 - 4 is not as compact as your but I still had fun creating it.

I think this is great. Small science setups are fun to build, but I know some players get tired of re-making them each time they start a world, or get stuck on trying to build an even amount of all the sciences. Something they can just plug into their main bus is super handy to have.

Being able to build it in stages is also an excellent bonus, and I appreciate that it's all similarly sized for all 3 stages.
Now you just need a modular bootstrap mall to go with it!
