Got a collection of 0,17 mid to late-game blueprints for fully compressed 4 belt output Green Circuit builds in both Red (7,2k/min) and Blue Belt (10,8k/min) outputs. I designed it so as to condense the layout at much as possible (for the shear challenge of it) which I was able to condense the design down to a 100% space efficiency (669 of 693 tiles = 96,5% space utilized with a 21x33 tile footprint) with zero lateral gaps between beacons and assembly machines. Best part is that the base blueprint is tile-able so you can actually use it starting when you get substations and add the modules and beacons as you get them.
Requirements:
- Tile-able
- Substation aligned
- Aesthetically pleasing
- 4 Fully compressed output belts
- Smallest footprint possible
Cooper goes to the outside belts and iron plates on the two belts closest to the assembly machines in the inside. Output belts are the four belts located in the middle of everything!
Change log:
3/4/19: grammar/wording choice edit in description to make it more accurate
3/6/19:
- Changes to description to reflect Version 2 design
- Added Requirements section to Description to better clarify the end goal of the design
Version 2
- Added beacon to copper wire machines to account for imbalanced ratio
- Reworked Iron belts to enhance efficiency
- Changed out Fast Inserters for Stack Inserters
- Added Iron Plate Buffer Chests to account for Belt to Ass. Machine latency
EFFICIENCY IMPROVEMENT:
- Red Belt = 29.6% Size Reduction
- Blue Belt = 20% Size Reduction
