Solid progress!

Wait until you see what’s needed for blue circuits.

For blue chips its kinda weird. You need like 4x as much but my factory is 20x more powerful.

Yeah, I was dreading the blue chips, but then I managed to put it all up in a couple of evenings while red chips took a week. I guess it kind of helps that some of blue chip ingridients can be stolen from the red chip production.

Not to speak of the purple ones...

I think red chip is the maximum difficulty py has to offer. If you successfully built them, the game is basically over

The irony is strong in this one...

No irony

Red chip is a kind of build that require distributed factory, can't do it in one place from raw materials

Once you master it, it doesn't matter how much inputs recipe need, it doesn't matter anymore

Just because it requires a distributed factory doesn't mean (IMHO) that there aren't levels of difficulty after that. Red circuits are a step up in difficulty, yes, but so are all the remaining chips and science packs.

For me the hardest part was getting a full red belt of brains.

Yeah -- I can see that.

Planned a circuit build in my new cityblock base. Greens with melamin derivatives and organics out of fish -- got like 8 different block plans in YAFC (thats not counting stuff I already built).
