About this build
A 54 by 42 tile grid of electric mining drills feeding red belts: 36 drill blocks that cover a large ore patch in one placement. Drills sit on both sides of each belt to save space.
Place it over the patch and let bots build it. Built in Factorio 1.1 by its author; 2.0 converts it when you import it, so check it once after placing.
Before you place it
- Clear a space of at least 54 × 42 tiles.
- It works in the base game without Space Age.
- It is large: construction robots will place it much faster than building by hand.
- It was made in Factorio 1.1; the game converts it when you import it, so check it once after placing.
