Once you build your sixth factory, the Methanoids declare war. If you're completely unprepared, you're going to lose.

...but you don't need much preparation. 3000T each of iron, aluminium and titanium in each factory is more than enough. Cutting it this close does mean reprogramming the shuttles to haul up only the elements that are needed to build drones.

The MTX is a very important piece of new technology. The ability to magically transport unlimited quantities of materials and equipment around makes the fleet of mineral-balancing "truck" ships completely redundant. I repurpose them into asteroid miners, but the rate of material income from an asteroid miner really is pitiful compared to a mining colony. The MTX also beams resources up to the factory as they are mined - that means new colonies won't need a shuttle hauling materials up, but the old colonies will still need one to clear out the backlog. Still, they will have roughly double the usual income while they are doing that.
