what are people doing with all the extra stone from extra stone from vulcanus ?

For automated way... Use an inserter to throw it back into the lava. ^^

Best riddance ever.


That said, if you unlocked the recycler already, then you could alternatively use that by looping it until is gone. But that is more energy inefficient way to do it.


And if you want to be totally hardcore... launch it to space platform... and throw it off the platform. I am waiting for a YT video where some mad guy builds a whole infrastructure just for the sake of launching excess stone into space.

turn it into refined concrete and pave over the whole universe.

But you have so much energy available on Vulcanis...

Solar panels have a 400% bonus on the surface.

The Calcite-to-Steam recipe can produce so much 500-degree C Steam that you will never have to worry about running out of energy.

True that.

... but as Factorio-player, can you really ever sleep well at night knowing you stopped caring about efficiency even in a "infinite" resource scenario and that you didn't give it your best to optimize it? ^^
