About this build
Xeinaemm's note: Designed to be main base with turbo belts and stack inserters in mind.
A large Vulcanus main base designed around turbo belts and stack inserters, from Xeinaemm's Tileable Factories book.
Before you place it
- Clear a space of at least 236 × 100 tiles.
- You need the Space Age expansion (Selector combinator, Foundry, Casting steel recipe).
- It has 375 crafting machines and 347 beacons, so connect enough power before you switch it on.
- It includes roboports, so it can extend your logistic network and let robots build the rest.
- It uses circuit logic. Do not remove wires or combinators when you adapt it.
