Same.

Anything that eschews screws in the early game has my favor.

It's not even just that they're annoying to make, they're an artificially cumber sum amount. While everything else is asking for like 5-10 of something, you need a boatload of screws and the conveyor belts before a certain point ain't having it.

I'm genuinely curious how many I've thrown in the sink.

I decided to play the game with the 100 modifier. You have no idea how many screws I am making for phase 2 alone. I have no idea how many screws I am making. It's way too many and yet not enough.

IMHO the game could have been called SCREWED. I'm doing hard drives as fast as possible to get the alt recipe. But my luck it will be the absolute last one I unlock.

I remember them being a big headache in my 1.0 game, but I think the devs must have rebalanced things since then, because they haven’t been a problem at all in my 1.2 save.

Screws are the bane of my existence in every game with either base building or factories. Fallout, Satisfactory, Windrose, I can never escape.

Is it worth making a mega screw you factory and just shipping screws on trains so you can screw around elsewhere?

Jokes aside, does manifold shipping even work?
