The problem I have with most Zachtronics games rears itself pretty damn early in SpaceChem. The scale of the solution becomes large enough that refactoring to address a problem just bogs you down in hellish tedium of moving shit and awkward debugging. I don't know if I can even be fucked to finish reworking the almost-functional solution I stopped on.
>all inserters place things before the splitter now rather than afterhuh
>>573884786You wouldn't want to insert things in the out-hole instead of the in-hole, would you?
When do I use red modules and when do I use blue
>>573885538problem is raw resources? redproblem is crafting speed? bluewith beacons you just use red in the machine and beacon with speed
>>573884494part of it is learning when it's worth trying to fix an almost-working solution or if it'd be easier to start over
>>573885538as a general rule, the ideal is all red in the machine but the machines are also sped up by beacons with blue modules.Sometimes when I need to get a bit more juice out of older builds (like LDS), I put in like 3 prod mods and 1 speed if I don't have room to sneak a beacon in.Oil pumpjacks are a great use case for speed modules, since their output has a floor that it can't go below (so speed is basically a better prod as well in them).
ah this is so cool but frustrating
>>573890485Looks like you're getting the idea.
>>573890707yeah but now ive one issuehow do i stop iron bacteria from deadlocking because too much iron?
>>573890856very carefully
