It’s been a little bit since Space Age released and I’m curious to hear what everyone has been up to lately in their factory!

On my part I’ve been ready to go to Aquilo for a while now but I got distracted rebuilding everything on Nauvis with a rail-based city block design. I also got a calcite mining platform up and running and switched over a bunch of production to use molten metal.

I’m hoping to check out Aquilo anytime now but I might have to do a bit of work on Gleba and Fulgora before I can afford to be stranded again.

What sorts of things have you been working on in your factory?

    I just finished lights around a constant combinator that serves as a switch for recovery of power in case of a brownout on Vulcanus. The lights are circling around the combinator while changing colours through the whole spectrum.

    It’s completely useless and I love it and am very proud of it. I spent 2 evenings on it :-)

    I just beat the game on a mod-free run. Now I’m farming shattered planet for Prometheum to do research, though there isn’t a huge amount of purpose to it now.

      I sunk a lot of time trying to design a narrow ship that can go really fast through shattered planet. Higher than 270km/s is really tough

    Packing for Vulcanus. Probably going to need more than 2 silos if I want to leave any time soon with everything. Going to a planet with an entirely new tech tree is exciting and scary.

      Is Vulcanus your first planet after Nauvis?

      That’s where I went first (mostly because I was desperate for cliff explosives). It’s such a great planet.
