Choose one product
The first factory line should solve a recurring demand with known inputs. Avoid connecting every unlocked machine at once; a single product makes failures visible.
Create input and output buffers
Place enough input storage for several cycles and reserve output capacity. Buffers separate gathering interruptions from machine failures and show where the line is starving.
Observe a complete cycle
Watch material enter, move between stages and reach final storage. Check worker paths and conveyor direction before leaving the factory.
Scale the bottleneck only
If demand exceeds output, identify whether the limit is supply, processing, hauling or storage. Duplicate only the limiting stage; copying the entire line wastes space and workers.
