Key takeaways
- ✓Roof everything
- ✓One flat floor
- ✓Chest adjacency
- ✓Duplicate the bottleneck
Roof everything
Rain stops unroofed crafting. One roof over the production floor prevents most stalls.
One flat floor
Multi-level bases create pathing failures. Keep production on a single foundation level.
Chest adjacency
Input chests beside benches, Transport Pals restocking from bulk storage.
Duplicate the bottleneck
If ammo is your limiter, build a second Weapon Assembly Line rather than more workers.
Cake and breeding
