Diagonal madness

Post by T-1024 »

I wanted to do something different to just-another-main-bus-factory, so here is fully diagonal base ;)
Its not a megabase and has many problems with resource balance and etc... But my goal was just to try out a new crazy setup and maybe launch a single rocket.

Final view of the factory:
Map
Screenshot 8192px warning
Screenshots of step by step progress:
It starts here
First iron smelting
Green circuits and first science setup
Steel smelting
Labs setup redesigned
Oil
A sort of bus
By the time factory looks as follows
First outpost and crazy railway XD
Nuclear power
And finally the rocket

This is awesome! But OMG the first time I looked at the second image... my OCD went off, like it hurt. After seeing the pics below that one though it was much easier. This deserves some attention 'cause I have never seen anyone make a base like this!

Code: Select all

               R

This is so strange to look at. It's a very unique idea.
