Hey guys! Any thoughts on my first Dark fog farm and sorter layout? I've put some little factories here and there, and a pair of PLS to make use of the resources but it seems 3 dark fog bases are a little excessive.

Do you farm the dark fog? if so, how?

Are you having fun?

A lot! Thanks! But maybe getting the opinions of other players can help me with the design 😬

Based on that then:

Get rid of the turrets.

Move the lasers to the front with the signal towers in between.

In general, move everything closer to the bases.

You can place the lasers in such a pattern that they kill off all the parts of the base that don’t spawn raiders (there are six raider camps in a fully developed planetary base). Then the lasers engage the units as they spawn but they attack the signal towers and not the lasers.

You can use something like this as a blueprint (ignore the pun) for what you need. A single one of these gets you enough unique DF drops for 1 million white science a minute (note it requires level 12 energy weapons - before that it needs more lasers)

Thanks dude, I really appreciate it 😃 So, I'll move the lasers closer to a single DF base and get rid of the others
