About this build

Xeinaemm's note: Modified version of abucnasty blueprint.

A steel plate 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.

Before you place it

  • Clear a space of at least 76 × 17 tiles.
  • You need the Space Age expansion (Turbo underground belt, Stack inserter, Turbo transport belt).
  • It places legendary quality items: your logistic network must hold them at that quality before robots can build it.
  • It has 16 crafting machines and 85 beacons, so connect enough power before you switch it on.
  • It uses circuit logic. Do not remove wires or combinators when you adapt it.
