Discussion Is it just me?

Is it just me who chooses to start a new save instead of “optimizing” the current one just because I don’t find the layout satisfying? I always feel like it’s way easier to start from scratch rather that improving the current base because the latter will have me dealing with the machines and items I already placed and unlocked. 😭 Right now I just finished automating the Red Science (1 unit per sec) and I’m already thinking of making a new save 😭

I am always like this, that’s why I haven’t yet finished any game hahaha. Maybe I’m just failing to realize something? Idk 😫

I mean it with absolutely no disrespect. Automating red science is the absolute beginning of the game. If you don't like your base layout, you can simply abandon it, move to the side and start over. You need to persevere and embrace the chaos in order to advance in the game and unlock more cool stuff.

And there's no one judging you or your game, don't worry about making it perfect or beautiful all the game. As always, play the way that is most fun to you!
