About this build
A Space Age base built on a grid of 96 by 96 tile blocks (3 by 3 chunks): 27 blueprints for the grid itself, smelting, power and train interiors, so a base can grow block by block. The author marks it as an early version that is still being improved.
ModernKiwi's notes: Space Age grid based Factory design. Based on a 3x3 (96*96) chunk layout. TODOs: Improve designs, Better train system, Impliment advance Blueprint functions, Fix x4&x8 electric smelter splitter #5 output side, Human friendly transport areas. Add TODO to github Version update: 0.00.6: Fixed missing modules in x4 and x8 blue belt smelter blueprints.
Before you place it
- Clear a space of at least 108 × 108 tiles for the largest blueprint in the book.
- You need the Space Age expansion (Selector combinator, Quality).
- It places rare quality items: your logistic network must hold them at that quality before robots can build it.
- It has 1730 crafting machines, so connect enough power before you switch it on.
- It includes roboports, so it can extend your logistic network and let robots build the rest.
- It uses circuit logic. Do not remove wires or combinators when you adapt it.

Facts
| Type | Blueprint book (27 blueprints) |
|---|---|
| Game version | 2.0.66 |
| Space Age | Required (Selector combinator, Quality) |
| Quality | rare |
| Size | 108 × 108 tiles (largest blueprint) |
| Entities | 22,071 |
| Checked | Passed an automated check against Factorio 2.0/2.1 game data. The checker flagged 15 rail chain signals next to curved rails, a placement the game allows but the checker is known to over-report. |
Numbers behind builds like this: Vulcanus casting ratio: foundries for molten iron and plates · furnaces per belt: 48 stone or 24 steel furnaces per yellow belt · mining drills per belt: 30 electric drills fill a yellow belt
