Longplay through to megabase (hopefully)

Have not actually played Update 4 so a lot of this is new! I'm probably going to be doing spreadsheets/planning during stream (offscreen) so there's going to be a bit of dead time. Longplay will be unedited; I'm not particularly streaming this to build an audience but I'm mic'd up so feel free to come say hi or ask questions regarding this game or my work in general and I'll answer if I can.

pt23: Turbo Motors & 12GW
galaxybrain is defined by manually dumping parts (including Nitrogen via fluid canisters) into semi-temporary setups to tech to Turbo Motors and get a few made... and then use them on 3 normal Coal patches to bring Coal up to 2400+/min and build 160 Coal Plants. I was very, very paranoid of running up against the power limit, but in hindsight it would have probably been fine to just tech Drones first and automate everything before working on the 12GW plant. Oh well, it worked out!

Ultimately the way power is going to work is a network of Geothermals linked to the Coal Plant's input miners and water extractors, and then Coal Plant's power output eventually disconnected from the main grid and instead linked to the big Nuclear field's infrastructure. That way if power ever trips, there's a 100% failsafe way to kickstart it again, since the 12GW from 160 coal plants will always be on.

Of course, if power ever trips after getting ~20 Nukes up, something went horribly wrong somewhere, but better to have the redundancy anyway.

Now that power is much less of an issue, we can fix the rest of the base's automation and redo circuits, hi-speed connectors, computers+supercomputers, electromagnetic control rod, heat sinks and get a couple drones up and running for Nitrogen. That last is very much experimental on my part as I have never used drones and need to get a feel of their throughput capability before deciding on how to supply the nukes.
