Bear with me first post. I have about 400 hours into facotiro and mostly followed Nilaus guide with base in a book for my first playthrough then moved into his mega base in a book after getting the first base set up and going. Then i skipped ahead in his series on youtube and realized how much he needed to build to hit his target numbers got discouraged to play the game for a while. Then I heard about the expansion coming and decide to start playing again and make my own Mega(kinda) base. So i set out on trying my hand at a 1K smp 12 beacon base/clump thing that i could stamp down everywhere. Got all the way to yellow science and started testing its numbers and realized I stuffed only 1 chemical plant for batteries when i needed 5 according to the online calculator so the clump sits unfished. That's when I moved to my 500 smp main buss fed from train with plates instead on ores like my 12 beacon setup. Finished the bus yesterday then made my train stacker and unloader for it today. Now that's its finished I plan to start stamping this down everywhere in my main world to get 10Kspm before the update. Now
