Do you fully utilise the potion factories? Maybe I play a bit slower than most, but I tend to make do with just a couple of each colour, and don't feel like I'm slowing down my 8 labs very much.

The amount of potion factories is just about right for my 16 labs, I think.

Also, tadpoles.

Minecraft UI is very simple. There's only so many ways you can implement "simple" without copying something. We also gonna complain that it uses WASD?

Looks like something pretty banterous.

I have never used electrical furnaces or logical circuits, but I can say this.

One thing I recommend is using separate belts for ore and fuel. You'll have to use long-handed inserters to make it work, but it will double the throughput of the ore.


You should never need separate belts for fuel and ore.
If you only use half of the belt, you get half the throughput, which really isn't desirable.

I get that throughput isn't generally an issue in smaller factories, but you'll notice it when you expand. I'm actually using a quad-bus in my current factory just so I can have each production line only take 1/16th from the main bus instead of the usual 1/2.




They don't quite need 6 Fast Long Inserters, but 3 Fast Inserters didn't get the job done before :P. I should probably have made a gif since it looks like kinda like Cthulhu doing the Macarena.

This mod is great, but it also adds so much random stuff you never know what you need.

Bob's mods belts have a reason for getting longer undergrounds as you go up in tiers. Your factory will get messy and cluttered.

Well I have avoided that so far by having a main bus as large as the actual factory.

I'm actually kinda sad I'll have robots soon. All that hard work will have been for nothing :/

Also a reason Bob's mods has better and faster bots. You kinda have to go there eventually.

I wonder if I can fit yuoki and bob's in the same pack.  :P
