I’m grinding the phases (new to the game) and I’ve been spending so much time making sure every build is neat and looking how I want it - but seeing the new stuff I’m unlocking, I’ve got the feeling that I shouldn’t have tried so hard coz I’m probs gonna have to upgrade everything.

Is the the loop of the game to rebuild once I’ve unlocked better versions of smelters etc or am I playing it wrong?

    The way I see it, it’s best to just build small scale hubs where you produce specific things. If you start your first real factory with some room to expand into, you can always scale up. But once you get trucks and trains, you can pretty much build a factory anywhere where there’s nodes, provided there’s enough level room.

        I don’t think the console version is much different than the pc version but if you’re not running a dedicated server you might make the game more difficult than it is. I love just building stuff and then coming back after a few days with all my dimensional depots filled and my space elevator stuff all completed.
