About this build

A beacon factory that works on any planet, from Xeinaemm's Tileable Factories book. The rate is Xeinaemm's minimum with legendary machines and full productivity research, so expect less early on. It is 154 buildings in a 34 by 14 tile area.

Before you place it

  • Clear a space of at least 34 × 14 tiles.
  • You need the Space Age expansion (Turbo transport belt, Stack inserter, Turbo underground belt).
  • It places legendary quality items: your logistic network must hold them at that quality before robots can build it.
  • It has 4 crafting machines and 20 beacons, so connect enough power before you switch it on.
  • It uses circuit logic. Do not remove wires or combinators when you adapt it.
