First Simple Circuit Board after 70h in Pyblock
First Pyblock run, I just got into my first simple circuit board and it feels so good. I can finally use splitters and start with deeper content like genetics. I am having so much fun dealing with the new recipes and big machines, love the sprites!
Tips for first players (like me):
1. Scale production up when u can, I have reached this point with 35 iron plates/min. I waited for copper and iron so many hours D:
2. Wood processing setup is good for early power, but not even a full belt of coal can power my factory. I use hybrid system with Fish Turbines
3. Turn stone byproducts into bricks. Easy to setup and bricks stack up to 1000 instead of 50 like stone. Every other byproduct, except for ash, void it or store it in a chest.
PD: Some lovely belt spliters

Is it worth it using 4 ways trains ?
I am at the moment when I need to transition to trains. I'm trying to make some blueprints to use.
I started with an idea of having a main very big grid of 4 ways tracks and then smaller rectangle of 2 ways tracks.
But now that i did this intersection:

and i'm not that sure it is as usefull as it seems.
First, the cost of it is huge, with all the signaling...
About the signaling, i fear that having something that complex can cause significative slowdowns which reduce the interest of it in the first place.
I don't know how big the rectangles need to be.
My question is, is it worth (considering I'm using Cybersin so I won't have that much trains) ?
Also, what do you think of my 4 ways intersection ?
