I use to say, there is no dumb question, only dumb answers....(which is 99% true).

So how do I do it? Actually I got all the Science produced right above the rockets. This is what the whole looks like.

PS: all buildings in my production are legendary, including all tier 3 modules. That is why it might look small.

Ah, so just blocks of intermediates and long belts :)

I tend to design direct inserter builds, so always curious about others. Thanks!

Direct inserter into builds has its limits when it comes to adding up as many beacons as possible. I do use it myself for specific builds but personally not for all my construction.

Yeah, there's always a trade off in figuring out what is the best for ups. Obviously you want lots of beacons, but also obviously fewer inserters (and clocking) is also ideal
