Because this community deserves more activity.
Today was spent setting up a basic Quartz/Silica factory, from one of the pure nodes in the giant Rocky Desert cave.
Got it most of the way done. Need to finish running power along the input belt line, finish enclosing the Depot wing, bring the road up to meet the building, setup truck stations, and color and light the whole thing.
Me personally, I’d do a combined factory.
I also have to make an effort to suppress the design paralysis urge. Like, sure, thinking about how stuff bow will fit with future ideas is good, but it’s not worth agonizing over. Figuring out how to connect systems that weren’t necessarily made to work with each other is part of the challenge/fun, and usually produces a more interesting result than something fully-planned-out.
