Gleba Biofactory Phase 3

After installing Space Age, building a basic base on Nauvis, and doing some research, I left for Gleba with nothing but a few steel plates in my pockets. I barely made it, and once there, it was surprisingly difficult just to get iron and copper going. My first attempt was a spaghetti mess that didn't generate enough iron or copper, sometimes ran out of nutrients, and generated a lot of spoilage. Then I switched to logistics bots, which was very nutrient-efficient with little spoilage, but consumed a massive amount of power, and still didn't generate enough iron or copper. Now I've replaced that with a new setup that's imperfect but much better. Efficiency modules really helped me tune it for equilibrium: the right amount of nutrients in the right spots.

Not sure the blueprint will be useful to anybody, but just in case here it is:


I haven't been able to research any new technology, because I don't have a working space platform, so I can't bring military science here or agricultural science to Nauvis, and there's no coal on Gleba. But now that I've got a good biofactory, I quickly banked thousands of rocket part inputs, and I'll be able to start building a space platform in my next session.
