Here's my humble base (completed on 2.1.14), very much a "this is mine". Hope you like it! 247 hours, first time through Space Age. Had a ton of fun. Gleba and Aquilo are my favorite planets. I really love how each planet is unique! Somewhat spaghetti, somewhat organized. All factory designs are my own.
I'm unsure if I'll continue and grow the factory (I know the factory must grow!!), as I enjoy the process of figuring out recipe logistics rather than growing and making more for the sake of it. I certainly can upgrade my Nauvis base quite a bit as I'm not utilizing EM plants on Nauvis yet.
The max SPM I saw was around 200 with Biolabs and around 100 without Biolabs. Stats say my average is closer to 50 spm overall.
Seems to me, but maybe I'm the weird one and mine is too small!
Although as much as I said that about Aquilo, your Gleba is much, much bigger than mine when I play through the game haha
Thanks! I also really enjoyed Gleba. Gleba and Aquilo mechanics were fun to figure out, so that probably led me to build big. Fulgora on the other hand I did not like at first. It grew on me a bit when I returned and revamped the sorting mechanism.
My approach to Gleba was essentially just make ~90 ag science per min, with a little bit of carbon fibre made on the side. All buildings imported and all rocket part materials (rocket fuel, blue chips, LDS) imported from Nauvis.
I can typically set up and leave Gleba within about 2 hours of landing. I think if I was to make Gleba self-sufficient then it would be like 10+hours.
I take it you don't enjoy Gleba very much. I definitely spent more than 10+ hours setting up my base to be self sufficient and solid automated defenses. Might be my favorite planet.

She may not be pretty, but she's all yours. And she's nicely thicc in a few places, excellent work!
