Hey everyone! I've created a "robot rush" starter base that gets you from a fresh savegame to construction robots relatively quickly, but more importantly allows you to be lazy. It includes advanced oil processing and the first 3 sciences (edit: plus military), as well as a mall (loosely based on the mall from Nilaus' jumpstart base) that makes almost everything you need to expand towards a larger base.

Warning: may contain unhealthy amounts of spaghetti. I admit I'm not the greatest engineer, but while the base is somewhat inefficient, it's nevertheless functional.

The whole point of this base is laziness. It's mainly intended for those who don't want to put too much thought into earlygame. You can just stamp this down and fill it out while watching netflix on your second monitor or something like that.

I've tested it quite extensively and used it myself to progress through a fresh savegame, it works very well.

  • the base consists of 6 different "chapters" that build on each other
  • start with the first blueprint and build everything, then paste the next part on top and fill that out, and so on
  • every individual blueprint has some instructions and/or comments - please read them!
  • the book includes the same base twice. The second one is contained in a grid-locked 100x100 city block, if you wish to use those
  • none of the buildings are upgraded. This is intentional, so that you can decide yourself what you want to speed up first
  • a few upgrade planners that can be used as-is or applied to blueprints are included (be careful with belts - science labs use belt weaving!)

some arm are miss configured in the final state, no repair kit, no electricity pole.

Arm? You mean inserters? I'm not aware of any being misconfigured. Maybe you're thinking of the inserters on the red belt assemblers? I deliberately set those to 0 because red belts need a ton of iron, which the factory can't provide without other things getting less than they need. You're supposed to turn them on manually. I did mention this in the comment on the relevant blueprint.

As for repair kits and large power poles, I didn't find a good place for those yet. So far I've just been squeezing them in wherever they fit, but I've been too lazy to update the blueprints. I'll eventually do that but right now I'm taking a break from Factorio.

no I think that was the one for wood electric pole the arm was config to drill or something like that and not electric pole

Alright, I'll keep it in mind. Next time I play I'll fix it and push an update.
