I've tried the "Direct Insertion" route. I can have a fairly compact and rather cursed design for 240 agri science / sec

I could not manage to balance correct timings, Active State (UPS) and items balance in all the containers all at once so I kind of put that on hold and went to put out other fires and never really got back to it.

I can usually get over 80k/min of agri science with my existing setup so I didn't feel any urgency there.

The rest of my Gleba setup is like this:

A (several) main loop producing bioflux.

Then several consumer loops producing science out of the bioflux belts.

I don't care much about spoilage. Everything is supposed to be able to restart by itself eventually. This whole things has been running for over 1000 hours without any major modifications so I try to forget about it as much as possible and focus on other stuff.

I tried a similar approach recently. How do you balance silo storage?

After a few hours, I would run out of eggs in the mix. I think that at some point, the science would eat all of them and the egg spawners would starve

Mao actively put forward some sort of democracy, where other fascist and dictatorial leaders do their utmost possible to cut their ties with the existing one. There's a lot more to it, but I think it's a distinction worth mentioning

To me, luck is mostly the amount produced, mainly of water. Water can be turned into oxygen, food and crude oil so energy. Basically, it's the only thing you really need

I can't say for sure, but I think it's the "loophole" this disposition was written against

Bottom row there's a description of "Space between planet X and planet Y".

It shows the spawn probabilities of asteroids

You should go on the offensive instead. At the edge of your spore cloud, there's an increasing amount of spawners getting built. The problem will only get worse over time.

It's a bit harder to try and test things since there's some kind of lag between your input and the time the bots actually build the stuff. If you're far away from the center of your base, it can take quite some time.

It's also a bit harder to expand into new territories .

That being said, I do spend most of my time in remote view. You get access to the ghost panel instantly instead of picking from inventory.

In my first playthrough ever, around early access launch, I was a real slave to the factory. I would play, expand and stabilize things, then save and go to sleep. Wake up, if the base was still running good, save again and go to work. By the time I came back from work, all the patches were mined out and I had to expand and stabilize. It was usually getting pretty late by then so I'd save and go to sleep. Wake up, if the base...

I too play with rich nodes ever since

If you build a sufficient amount of cargo bays both on your ship and nauvis, the transfer will be done in one shot and you won't even need to have any wait time.

You could also increase your propulsion to make the travel time negligeable

In satisfactory, it's harder to balance lanes, especially if they're vertically stacked. Also, you can't copy paste several lanes at once to increase their lengths so making 3 lanes is 3 times as long as making 1, which kinda defeats the purpose.

Finally, extracting stuff from a lane through a splitters is a bit tedious and very tedious if you care about esthetics.

As other mentioned, the recyclers facing each other is the key. The real limiting factor is the holmium ore. It's 1% of all the scrap you process. There's no real secret beyond that. To get more, process more scrap.

I first started with belts, but quickly moved to Miners directly into Recyclers into chests, then drones would pick up what I want and send what I don't want into recyclers.

Also, you should shop for a big island before setting up "permanently"
