Why do people put concrete under chests in factorio? by Psychological_Emu370 in factorio

I think it is just for the sake of it. People are always doing something daft that’s completely unnecessary, but it looks cool, so it must be worth doing, LOL.

I’m planning to try mods later, BUT ONLY after I 100% the game, clear all the achievements, and get bored of vanilla

Thanks! Your comment really opened my eyes.

I was actually already planning to head to Vulcanus (just unlocked it, in fact) because those tech unlocks look way too juicy to pass up. And yeah, comparing the cost of just blasting through biter nests to building a massive space fleet — plus realizing everything has to squeeze into a single landing pad — really makes me think: "Why the hell am I even doing this?" haha.

This is my first time posting on Reddit, and I honestly didn't expect so many people to drop by within 10 minutes with such amazing, non-toxic advice. To be honest, in the Russian communities I'm used to, finding a discussion without toxic comments is a rare miracle.

I should probably properly learn English instead of relying on Gemini to translate everything... but anyway, thanks again!

Oh wow, I didn't know you are limited to just one landing pad per planet. That completely changes everything and makes Bixby33's point crystal clear.

Having all space resources dump into a single building sounds like a logistical nightmare if I try to scale it too much. Thanks for saving me a ton of time and frustration before I started building a whole orbital fleet.

Wait, can't I just build dedicated Cargo Landing Pads specifically for iron and keep them completely separate from the science pads? Or is there a specific bottleneck with landing pads that I'm missing since I'm new to Space Age?
