• Electric mining drills require electricity and provide a 5x5 mining area.

• Stone and Steel furnaces require fuels to smelt ores.
  
• Electric furnaces require eletricity to smelt ores. (duh)

• Balancers are used for equalizing items on the main bus.
  
• Feeders are used for providing the assembly line with items from the main bus.
  
• Chain loader are used for loading a line of turrets.

• Main buses are a bundle of transport belt made to carry items in quantity.
  
• It is advice to have some space between (a bundle of) belts of each item.

• Avoid building each assembly line too close to each other.
  
• Some products may need pipelines or storage.
  
• Creativity is key to design your own effective assembly line.

• Red, Green, and Black science packs don't required crude oil to craft.
  
• Blue, Purple, and Yellow Science pack require crude oil to craft.
  
• White science pack is only used for infinite research.

• Crude oil can be gathered by pumpjacks on an oil field.
  
• Trains or long pipelines are generally required to deliver crude oil to refinery.
  
• Petroleum gas are mostly used for plastic and acid production.
  
• Heavy oil are used for making lubricant, cracking, or coal liquefaction process.
  
• Light oil are used for cracking or turn into rocket fuels.
  
• Multiple radars/outposts can be deployed to find oil fields even faster.

• You can learn how to setup a train system by using a tutorial in the game
  
• Tutorials in Stream or Youtube can explain more but can be overwhelming.
  
• 1-4 train (1 locomotive with 4 cargoes) with duel rail is recommended.
  
• Using 1-3-1 train (1 locomotive at each end, facing away from each other with 3 cargoes in between) with monorail if you are not good at setup train system yet.

• The purpose of outpost is,
  
  • To find resources nearby.
    
  • To gather resources for the base.
    
  • To obstruct a faunas immigration / assault.
    
  • To observe the areas. Keep the fog of war revealing.
    
  • To watch out faunas / other player assault.
    
  • To protect the power line or pipeline outside the base.
    
  • To refuel trains or other vehicles, act as either a checkpoint or a gas station.
• Outpost can be self sufficient depending on the design.
  
• A well-positioned outpost is very useful, so place them well.

• Master the way of transport belt, you must.
  
• Most raw and intermediate products should be delivered by a main bus properly.
  
• Productivity module 3 is OP. It reduce the cost and increase the output.
  
• Speed module 3 can also increase the output by reducing the crafting time.
  
• Every craftable item has a unique way to be made effectively.
  
• Player base should be well-organized as possible and effective as possible.
  
• Quantity has a quality all its own.
