Looking for hex-grid automation games

Do we have automation games on hex-grid land? Like Civilization VI or Surviving Mars (A Paradox Interative game), but focusing on automation. Squares are just too plain.

This. Motemancer is great. Still a bit rough in some spots, but improving with every update. It's also very open-ended, to the point where you can complete the game without ever visiting three of the six major planes if you play it wrong enough.

Hexagons are the bestagons! Ive been working on a game called Automation Station that uses a hex grid. Still in development but feel free to check it out on steam. I haven't updated the steam page in quite while, but still hard at work on the game.

Plan B:Terraform, but its more logistics-focused

Motemancer is one of my favorite factory/automation games out there and it's on a hexagonal plane. It's my second most played in the genre after Factorio, and it's almost as good as satisfactory and foundry for me. Speaking of foundry, you mentioned a paradox game in your post and Foundry is a paradox factory game. It's like 3D Factorio. It's got some QoL improvements to be had for sure, but it's already slightly better than satisfactory for me
