If you want to tackle this problem without a guide - you can instead build one of each
available building type and read the help articles. One limit of the current engine
is you get the help when you make the building, not when you earn the tech.
So you need to have built one (of whatever adds the help article) before you
are provided the help article on it...

1. Add 14 MW of power production beyond what your current factory pulls
   
2. Circuit Board automated Production (Add to your bus if you do a bus).
   
3. Maintenance Drone automated production (need for port anyway so start now) - get a container full made while working on the other issues.
   
4. Construction Ship Port (11 x 17) HVG
   
5. Transport Ship Port (31x21) HVG
   
6. Construction Warehouse (21 x 31) LVG
   
7. Construction Material automated production - deliver to Construction Warehouse
   
8. Radio Tower Base (11x11) (HVG) beware 10MW power draw - Note: The height of full tower is 84 units, Max base level 170. After configuring the building it will take a while to build.
   
9. We must make additions and repairs to the space station until sales are working.
   
10. Sales Warehouse (31x21) (LVG) - Near origin
    
11. Deliver Maintenance Drone production to the Sales Warehouse.
    
12. Space Station Requester Warehouse (31x21) (LVG) - Near origin - Given we are shipping maintenance drones to the station, this now provides the Firmalite we need for Science Pack 4.

In the current build… (11-Jul-2024)
Transport ships must travel back and forth to the space station, which is always above the origin (0,0) point.
If your main base is far away from the origin - you may want to build a “Spaceport” near the origin, you will need:

• Belts for moving the Construction Material and Maintenance Drones to the Spaceport.
  
• A belt for moving Firmalite back from the Spaceport to your main base.
  

If you put all the warehouses far from 0,0 space ship travel time becomes a limit.

You will need more power as you enter Tier 4, so either 5 more Turbines
or 15MW of solar and battery.

Tier 3 solar planning rule:
9 Small Solar Panels + 4 Small Batteries = 1 Megawatt of all-day power

Tier 4 solar planning rule: (not useful to get to Tier 4 but once you arrive...)
7 Large Solar Panels + 2 Large Batteries = 2 Megawatt of all-day power

These ratios are off by <10% (over capacity) but are a good approximation for
small solar farms.
