About this build

A first space platform that makes space science, from Xeinaemm's Tileable Factories book. The rate is Xeinaemm's minimum with legendary machines and full productivity research, so expect less early on. It is 43 buildings in a 16 by 19 tile area.

Before you place it

  • Clear a space of at least 16 × 19 tiles.
  • You need the Space Age expansion (Asteroid collector, Crusher, Space platform hub).
  • It has 8 crafting machines, so connect enough power before you switch it on.
  • It uses circuit logic. Do not remove wires or combinators when you adapt it.
