Hi Krydax. I started a pY save a few weeks ago. My factory is a mess compared to yours. But I also don't use the adjustable inserters, so that makes things a bit harder. I do have the game running on a server which just keeps the game running while I'm not there. So when I get back after a day, I need to find and fix things that are backed up. But overall that has been a pleasant experience, as it doesn't involve me waiting for things or trying to scale things up before I really understand things. But I'm running into one major problem now, I just made my first py science 1, and have passable circuits running, and I'm just overflowing with creosol, and not getting enough aromatics, and tips for that?
Glad you're enjoying it! As far as creosote/aromatics, I don't think there's much you can do at this point. At some point you get some new recipes, but for now I think the tar processing chain is really the only reasonable way to get aromatics, and it happens to produce a lot of creosote. Better than it used to be, though, that recipe for anthracene->coke+gasoline used to not exist, and instead you just turned anthracene into MORE creosote. So be thankful that's changed =D
@@Krydax8 WAIT. You're telling me I can turn anthracene into coke+gasoline?!, I've been turning it into creosote as well... That might help with my burnable fluids shortage... (so many recipes...)

@daid1500 SOOOOO many recipes. But you gotta look at all your options! Or you miss the good ones!
