My first five factories

[DonParpan]

Well, I bought the game 19 days ago and have 88 hours by now...kinda not doing much other stuff right now ^^''

I thought why not sharing my factories?
Images are a tad big so I'll link them/ put them into spoilers if it works..

My first factory

I realized very quickly that I had to build bigger so I abandoned it. I worked some more on it but didn't save it.

The second one.

Started to get some serious problems with getting the belts placed, new factory.

Number 3

Realized that I had to enable aliens... next try.

Almost everything researched. Not enough power to only rely on solar power and not enough patience to wait for the rocket to be built and couldn't be bothered to fix the factory to increase the production. Next one please.

Number 5, the current one. The biggest one. With numbers and maps and stuff.

1. The mostly dead part of the factory. Mining and smelting. There is still a small amount of Iron being processed but that's imported from the first outpost and it's almost mined off by now. The train station is also only target of the smallest train that is driving around.
2. The old Power Generator that is re purposed as an emergency supply(saved my rump more than once.)
3. The heart of the factory. Stuff is a bit cramped by now but everything is working pretty well.
4. The old refining part... was really cramped and way too slow so I moved it upwards.
5. The new refining part. Made so that I can easily add more parts.
6. The solar farm and accumulators (really needs to be made bigger...)
7.A Coal and a Copper mine. Also a refueling station for trains that had no direct access to coal some time ago.
8. The old copper and iron mines. Plus the train station that had to undergo multiple changes so that it still works. (suddenly started jamming for some reason)
9. New Iron mine with a smelting line.
10 New Copper mine with smelting line. I decided to switch the train tracks on the newest addition of the factory so I had to cross the lines there.
11. The new project. A new production line with loads of capacity. (probably going to mess it up)
Loads of fun^^
Took about 50 hours to start the first rocket(I think a new one is ready, the copper usage is way too low right now.)

Tried a to convince a friend to play it but he said something about not wanting to get addicted to a new game...

So What do you think?
