Re: Gleba!
I have only one question to you - Do you actually not know how to count, or are you just pretending?
Probably does.

Re: Space Platforms
My current runs platforms.
The game gave me Ryan, which I thought was awesome.
Ryan-1
First iteration, a basic satellite. Probably going to refurbish to an all normal quality one, it does work well.
Not much to say, the main difficulty is plugging in wires.

Re: Smallest possible Kovarex?
Same more compact layout as the one shown by quyxkh , but with the car trick, and still no need for legendary inserter.
( does use a legendary power pole though )

Re: Smallest possible Kovarex?
I've been bouncing in and out of game.speed 128 and banging on the loaders, can't make it jam after rearranging the internal splitters and going back to bulk inserters to deliver '235 to the exhaust belt.

Re: Smallest possible Kovarex?
No wires, it's some black magic involved with the underground belt. I use u238 entities coming off the Kovarex to jam u238 inflow line. If I'm allowed use wires to set conditions and want to save on belts, I'd just link Heligungir's passback build. Lowers speed, I cannot beacon a passback as much ...

Re: Smallest possible Kovarex?
It took me some doing to finish that one as a square. In the process I realized that I could manipulate the process so u238 feed could work in stack order. Edit: I thought about what I was doing. The belt inputs items first in, first out, but the input areas closest to the belt entrance deadlock the ...

Note that the red belt demonstrates a shorter pathway that can be used when the machine is less motivated.

Beyond the numbers, you have to analyze the crafting chain to make sure it makes sense.
1 Holmium ore -> 5x lithium. And that can be fed through intermediate productivity steps.
You could get holmium ore from a less efficient recipe following the logic of "I don't need a lot". Or a more ...

Ontopic: Good suggestions in this thread, I'm sure the devs will look at them for 2.1 and I hope they will change the game massively!
