Your filtered BAB bunker seems to be doing well, and I expect it would do much better if immediately surrounded with a layer laser turrets( besides running their loot out with belts, preferably quad stacked). I am surprised you are looking to mine copper when you have 6 depots full in the fog filter now and your new design filled up with copper before the end of the episode, Toss a large depot and a DLS on each BAB filtered to distribute the item that filled fastest in the BAB and setup DLS's on the depots that need to items set to demand it. From there I think you'll be quite stable, especially if you push all the upgrades that do damage or add hit points to your buildings. A "future proof" fog farm filter could be setup in a ring around the south pole, at any latitude that will allow such a belt around the world with least 29 splitters in it for 1 belt input( 30 for 3, 31 for 5, etc). You filter off each splitter, with a splitter/depot(/DLS) stack both towards and away from the pole with an input port and through port matched all the way around. Such a ring filter will let items be input anywhere in the chain and never go around the entire loop even once before being filtered, additionally you can belt items in at higher rates the more you spread the additional inputs around the ring. I like the number 34, it being part of the Fibonacci series, which would allow all the current items that can be farmed with maxed out bases, 57 items of which 5 are unique to the fog alone, that would give you a complete future proofed filter and 11 input locations for loot from your BABs.
Some interesting ideas on the filter, I like it! I want to get something set up for the new BABs first, but then I'll probably try to put something else down there to expand the sorting operation. Regarding copper, yeah, I have plenty, I just need to get it to the right places rather than set up more mines. Should be handled in the next video (which is probably coming tomorrow at this point rather than today).
