well i agree with "mega bus" you saying. But not 4 lane iron etc. Just double it 8 Lane iron, 8 lane copper, 4 lane green circuit, 2 lane red circuit etc. Cuz Factory MUST GROW.. If we need more metarial just add more train!! :)
i wouldn't call 4 lanes of copper or iron a "mega-bus" i'd call that a standard bus. a double-wide would make that 8 lanes of iron and copper. I'd say anything more than 8 belts for a single resource is a megabus. This would be something like "16 iron, 16 copper, 4 steel, 2 stone 2 brick, 2 coal, 4 plastic, 8or16 green circuits, 4 red circuits, 2 blue circuit, etc.
It really depends on your point of view on the game. For just finishing vanilla you hardly need 4 lanes of iron and copper. Not nearly that much. If you are a veteran you look at 4 lanes and start worrying how that should be enough for your chip factory and your science factory.
I only disagree with one thing. You can't calculate how much you need, because you will always need more. Make your calculations and then double it ;-) Nice video. Thanks.
I disagree with this stance. I've been working like this and it led me to burnout and putting the game away out of exhaustion. Cause always building doubly as much as tiresome to me. Building it to0 small with lots of room of expansion was for me personally the game-breaker. But we are all wired differently, so every approach which works out for you is a good one. Overpreparing killed the game for me personally though.
11:40 - I disagree!! THE FACTORY MUST GROW!! 😀 because you can play the complete oposite -> overthink everything but make all goods on-demand. Then you don't have that issue at all. You can also design your mainbus around an on demand good system, just with some storage containers and green circuit 🙂 But great video! ;-)

Hey man, this really helped me out, thanks!
that belt balancer blueprint book is horribly incorrect in many places, do you have a better option?
Raynquist's Belt Balancers. Google it!
I think the owner straight up downgrade the blueprint from higher tier belt to yellow that why some of them incorrect
Hey there, I added the Link to the Raynquist Belt Balancers into the Description as well! Thanks for spotting out o/
you can also use splitter priorities and use a splitter each lane every time you split something off, that way your lanes fill up one after the other
@@Toxodos unfortunately it does not compress one side of the belt to another. But it is good enough for a sane-sized bases.
