I know it's the bare minimum megabase for vanilla, but I'm happy to have finally hit a consistent 1000 SPM

Running follower robot count, since it's the only one that uses all of the sciences. (If you can find the labs in the screenshot you'll see that only half of them are running.) Follower robot count has a practical limit of bot lifespan / deployment cooldown * bots per deployment, which is long surpassed.

It runs at about 55 UPS, so it's horribly unoptimised compared to people's 40k SMP bases.

Don't know why production is still only at 99%. I assume the science must have so much of a buffer that it takes forever to empty, especially since it's delivered by train.

There are 34 modules, each of which makes all colours of science pack (including space science, each module has its own rocket silo). Trains only carry mined resources (including crude oil) in and science packs out.

Now that this is done all I have left is the no spoon advancement then I'll finally start my Space Age run.

Before you ask, yes, that is 409 unbeaconed labs in a straight line. I did this on purpose because I can.

After running fine for hundreds of hours, my nuclear fuel production stopped making U238 after backing up on U235. That 0.7% chance adds up! (Eventually.)

My entire grid (consuming 6GW on average) collapsed.
