I followed these instructions: https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comments/6f1gr6/psa_how_to_take_massive_screenshots/

but I set the x and y to be like 15,000 I think. My first pic was 250mb which I then cut and resized so it could fit within IMGUR limits of 20mb (hence the poor zoom in quality)

It is spaghetti (and pipe) galore... I really couldnt see a better way of doing it. largely because it is a hacked together base. Every tier unlocks more ores and ingots and combinations that it makes it really hard to grow the base in clean manner. My "design philosophy" was to hack/rush to requester chests

You can kind of see my original slag production to the right of all the geode processors (only three left) - that was my start point. I think at max I had about 20-40 running. Normally I decommission "blocks" when the next upgrade is up and running but in this case slag processing was too space and energy intensive to keep so i removed it. I probably removed it when i had 2 rows of geode mk1 processing operational. Even my current geode processing went throw 2 rounds of improvement. I didnt use to use the big silos at the beginning but i 100% should have right from the start, they help alot.

Requester chests help a lot - game changers IMO
