A pilot needs set up Links between structures to facilitate movement of products between structures. Links are the transportation for the raw materials and finished goods to flow around an outpost. Distance of Links consumes Powergrid and CPU. It is best practices to keep everything close together. The basic outpost should appear something displayed below…. | A pilot needs set up Links between structures to facilitate movement of products between structures.

Never route directly from a Factory to a Factory, Complications would cause resources to go wasted. Use a Raw Materials Warehouse to store the P1 and Route to the P2 Advanced Factories, and the P2 Finished Goods to the P2-P4 Warehouse. Use Links to set up Routes between the P4 High Tech Factories and P2-P4 Finished Goods Warehouse. This methodology minimizes the bottlenecks in the supply chain Maximizing efficiency is the goal of any manufacturer. The P2-P4 Warehouse can store variable amounts of the goods. Timing won't be so rigid a potential waste occurs, and factories production maximizes P4 with little time waste. | Never route directly from a Factory to a Factory, Complications would cause resources to go wasted.

Advanced Factories roughly take Two Cycles (1 hour per cycle) of a lower tier Advanced Factory to produce outputs. If set up properly there will be 28-36 Factories by the time you have maximized the CPU and Power Grid to produce P4. It should take more P2 Advanced Factories than P3 Advanced Factories. Then more P3 Advanced Factories than P4 High Tech Factories. At a minimum it is ideal for 2 Advanced Factories producing each input to be producing for each 1 Finished Goods Output. | Advanced Factories roughly take Two Cycles (1 hour per cycle) of a lower tier Advanced Factory to produce outputs.

26316 Units of P1 can fit in 10,000m^3. Some P4 needs a P1 combined with two types of P3 to produce. This number is 904 to roughly produce a day's P4. The math looks like below for 1 day of production P4… | 26316 Units of P1 can fit in 10,000m^3. Some P4 needs a P1 combined with two types of P3 to produce.

Some P3 is used to make Tech I Modules, and other P3 makes Tech II. The market for Tech I, and is preferable for those that plan to sell. To gauge what a P3 makes, choose the P3, and then check the industry tab after show info is clicked. Tech I modules are made in much larger quantities than Tech II. So to make certain there is a market that will buy from a pilot, P3 should be used in Tech I if maximizing sales is a consideration. | Some P3 is used to make Tech I Modules, and other P3 makes Tech II.
