Okay, optimized my base a bit now that I've unlocked a bunch of stuff! First picture shows my MASSIVE iron ore storage facility, a 2x3 stack of storage cubes. Those are fed by 4 miners (2 of them are in the second screenshot), and feed 2 smelters for iron ore. All 4 miners and the two smelters are fed by a small power plant that you can't really see because it's up against the cliff I'm standing on. The smelters feed into another storage cube, which feeds 3 constructers! 2 of them are on iron plate duty, and the third is on iron bar duty. I need a LOT of them, so those are going to run for a few hours. The HUB is to the right of the smelters; that's essentially my home base. And the MASSIVE structure in the background is the space elevator, where I send off specific items made to unlock further research! Second picture shows 2 of the miners at a lower elevation, with the ore being lifted up to the elevation the storage facilities are at. Third picture shows my copper production that I haven't cleaned up yet. You can kind of see the miner. What isn't shown is the power plant and smelter, but behind and to the right of the giant rock foundation is where I fabricate the copper ingots into wire, which gets run up to a storage cube near the space elevator.
