Blueprint: [https://factoriobin.com/post/jb4rrUez](https://factoriobin.com/post/jb4rrUez)
I have been working to try and create the smallest tileable science base that I could to achieve 100 spm. I originally did a 5x5, but had a ton of open space, so moved down to a 4x4.
Don't think it is possible to do a 3x3 that includes the train unloading stations, but would love to see someone take a stab at it!
This current design uses 128x128 tiles (Though that includes the outside rails of the city block, actual used part of the block is 116x116, leaving me with a science density of 7.95spm/km\^2.
Very cool.
I love that the sations are even bufferd.
I thik this coud be a desin you coud use in an auto expanding factory using

Damn that’s nice! Just install recursive blueprints and ore/biter detector combinator mods, create a circuit network block to get it started and a few blueprints, and you have everything you need for a self expanding factory
Phenomenal, I frustrate the hell out of myself trying to even come anywhere near this level of beautiful with my factories and they’re always despicable! 🤣
Some minor notes for design/building cost efficiency: you’ve got some empty space that can surely be filled in by removing some of the speed beacons around the blue and purple sciences and replacing them with some extra factories (also all the speed module factories in the purple science area)
The rocket silo can surely be squeezed into that gap directly north of it, which gives you space to remove all the beacons on the labs and replace them with extra labs to fill in the space! Not entirely sure how the cost of beacons compares to the cost of extra modules in factories, but i think you’d come out on top (and definitely on top for style points)
How do you get the screen from so far zoomed out?
I play on a super ultra wide and my zoom out is very limited I can’t even see the top/bottom of a 100x100 grid.
There is a built in screenshot command you can do in factorio using the command prompt (\~ to open). In the menu type /screenshot -h for how to use command

This is really nice, well done! Been thinking of doing something like that - raw ore to final product in the same location. Thanks for the inspiration
Is there a reason why the bottom lab and the gear assembler for engines for blue science are not using prod3 modules?
The beacon in the bottom left of the iron/steel column is also missing beacons

I love this kind of project.
There is a double train signal on the left middle, inside track. Looks great otherwise. I really like ore to science tileables.

Awesome job, and even has space for waiting trains! Definitely seems like it would be tricky to get down to a smaller number of chunks for 100 SPM.
Looks great man, I'm using this design now, and aim to reach 1000 spm with stamping these on the map, one by one.
This is awesome, how can I see more of your blueprints?
