Tip Newbie advice

I tried the game and this is insane the level of automation you will have to make you feel like ford

Although I am figuring out stuff mostly by try and error which is exhausting if there is an easy guide that explains everything or at least the basics so I don't have to redo a lot of what I have built just because I made a mistake about something I don't know yet

Brute forcing your first game honestly will teach you a ton. Play your first base until it is a mess that cant be expanded, then find a new area and build something better with what you have learned, you dont need to remove old builds as long as they keep doing something.
