I've posted in here like 20 times today so sorry about that.

I am finding myself increasingly frustrated with this game after having a lot of fun initially. I am at tier 6 in the hub and trying to work on stage 3 of the space elevator.

I need to start building computers and stuff but it's so awkward to do that. The plastic I need is on the other side of the map to where I can make everything else. I tried using trains but they are an absolute nightmare for me because of all the hills everywhere and I feel sick when the tracks clip through the ground.

How do people even proceed from here?

Do people make small factories to build reinforced plates, modular frames etc.... then train them in to distribute to other factories that make higher tier items? Do you make a central distribution area, to send all of the basics resources to?

-The pic is of a factory I built to make modular frames and smart plates, it's nothing compared to the stuff posted here, I know. I spent hours designing that in my notebook, getting the splitter and merger configurations just right. Now it disgusts me. Should I start again, or delete everything in my world? I'm getting close to just giving up.

Hi guys,

I just unlocked oil products and fuel generators but I'm having trouble with my pipes.

In the pic attached my oil is disappearing somewhere.

Green pipe = 240 oil

Blue pipe = 120 oil

Red pipe = 59 oil?

This is causing my fuel generators to keep turning off and on which is not ideal. I tried to get this to produce the correct amount of rubber, plastic and fuel with no waste but this issue with the pipes is not something I expected.

I've tried to remedy this with pumps but nothing seems to work... It always just splits 120 into 59x2. I've been treating pipe junctions like splitters but I guess that isn't correct?
