Can we have another thread about this game? I'm starting to understand assembly lines and how they're all connected to build bigger and better things but I have a problem with them clashing into each other. Surely there's some easier way of going about it.

Once you research logistics, you can make belts that go underground.
Yeah I just found that out looking through the skill tree, on another note is there an easier way to route coal to all your burners? I feel like this is something I need to map out before hand to make sure it all works
Look at your own pic
You have a long way to go if you are still figuring that out.
Usually the first thing I do is get electricity going with boilers and such.
For furnaces, I run a conveyor belt with coal parallel to the belt that has my ore, and I use a short arm to grab off the close belt and a long arm to grab off the farther belt. I put all my furnaces in a line.
burners? Burner inserters? Manually put coal to them until you get more iron and copper then use the superior inserter that requires electricity
I went straight with the electricity powered inserters and skipped over the burner ones, I just want my burners to be constantly powered
It's important to build your factory around one large central bus that distributes all of your raw materials. I'm talking like 8-16 rows of belts that transfer all metal to respective zones.
only plebs that don't appreciate spaghetti do this
Yes, rush to electricity
I am afraid to ask but post your factory
...
First, press alt.
Second, space yourself user, stuff should be really far apart of each other, otherwise growth is impossible.
Try making youe furnances and factories far far far away from your mines and each other.
You want a main bus with 2/4 lines of copper and iron that from there you do perpendicular factories

what do?

build a second electrity grid that only powers your burners if that is a problem.
I mean if you enjoy rebuilding basic sections of your factory each time you expand to a new processing/science then by all means go ahead and be lazy. It'll be much more work in the long run.
