Secure power
Reserve capacity before expanding. Keep generators and power routing accessible for later upgrades.
AIC FACTORY
A clean progression route for stable power, expandable logistics and production lines that remain useful after the early game.
01 // BUILD ORDER
Stabilize inputs
Feed raw resources into dedicated storage so temporary shortages do not stop the whole line.
Separate processing
Use one production block per intermediate material and merge only near the final assembler.
Add buffers
Place storage before expensive outputs, then tune ratios after observing real consumption.
02 // UNIVERSAL FLOW
RESOURCE NODE→INPUT STORAGE→PROCESSING→BUFFER→ASSEMBLY→OUTPUT
03 // EXPANSION RULES
- Leave at least one free connection on every important production block.
- Keep transport paths short and avoid crossing unrelated production chains.
- Duplicate the bottleneck machine instead of rebuilding the complete line.
- Save a reusable blueprint only after the line has run without shortages.
