We make some good progress in Factorio Megabase today!

It's been about 5 hours since the last episode, and this has given the module factory enough time to produce all the modules for all of it's assemblers and beacons. This means it is now running at full speed, able to produce 15 productivity three modules per minute and 30 speed three modules a minute.

However, with all that production, our pollution cloud has spread quite a bit, are we are being attacked by large groups of bitters now. So we have to go around and repair some of our defenses as well as build a few new defensive turrets.

Between episodes I was able to build new mines for the science factory that we started last time. I set up a mine for iron, copper, coal and stone. However, we still need to set up a place to get oil for the science factory.

But before we do that, we want to get the kickstart factory and the science factory populated with modules. To do this, I set up a new version of the kickstart train station which includes a second station for the module train, which will bring modules form the module factory. I set up this station at the kickstart factory, which apparently was able to build a lot of it's own modules since we set it up. The module train comes, and supplies the last of the modules that the kickstart factory was missing.

We then set up the station for the module train at the science factory, which basically has no modules at this point. One load of modules won't be enough, so while we are waiting for the modules to be installed and the train to bring a second batch, we go to set up the oil mine that this factory needs.

By the end of the episode, we handled a few more biter attacks, and are ready to start the science factory. We set it's trains up to get materials form the mines we set up, and set them running. To help push back the biters, we set the research for increased artillery range. That will let our artillery trains shoot further, taking out the nearby biter bases.

We will have to wait for the next episode to see the result of that research though, as we are over time on this episode!
