Factorio 1.0 - Hackdot

Yeah, bootstraps all the way: 1. Bootstrap "base 1" to Automation 1 (Coal etc.) 2. Bootstrap "Base 2" for Red/Green science, automate building components 3. Main bus "Science Base" maybe up to first rocket (maybe some train in resources) and later repurpose for module construction. 4. Train Base to goal SPM factory

The game has some major transition points where refactoring makes sense, but often the correct solution is to tactically upgrade as much as possible, and get to the better point to rebuild.

Seablock playthrough once updated for 1.0.

Somewhat, but also build a new one while letting the old one still perform useful work, decommission when it is beneficial.
