Description
Welcome to Factory idle!
Build factories, keep transporting resources under control and make a lot of money
What to expect?
* Joy and happiness when you mess up your factory :)
* More challenging game play as time goes on!
* Bigger and more complicated networks to produce stuff!
I am very happy to introduce my latest game and hope you enjoy this one as much as many of you have enjoyed and still are having fun with Reactor idle. With this game I tried to take my games to second level with much more more powerful engine and fixing many annoying stuff Reactor had - like background tab not running fast, saves getting lost etc. Have fun and definitely give constructive feedback so I can improve the game :)

Blueprint mode: Where you can design optimal factory systems in theory while your current factory continues to operate. Once you finish, the blueprint can replace your old system in one go. Some sort of tester like this would make things more fun and less stressful.

Hey Baldurans, awesome game! One feature I would like to see is a colour coding overlay that you can turn on/off to see which of your buildings are at peak efficiency!

As a suggestion to maybe appease those who think it is a bit too slow (count me as one, but only marginally), perhaps you could increase the tick cap for offline accumulation. I cap at 57,600 ticks, which at my current tick rate (8/sec) equates to only 2 hours of up-time. When I am offline for 20 hours a day (work and that pesky thing called sleep that all humans need), you can see how I feel that it's not progressing as fast as it should.
I also agree with red_legends' suggestion of a blueprint mode, but I'd also suggest adding a feature where you can manually set the level of your pieces instead of just taking the upgrade level you are currently at. That way, you could figure out how to reorganize your factory before you purchase your upgrades and start hemorrhaging money.

Yes, YES! An idle factory manager with long chains of component processes and sprawling conveyor belt spaghetti! Transport logistics! Resource rate management! Other than heavily modded minecraft, I've had yet to find a game with such in-depth and delicious factory management mechanics. Baldurans; you, sir, are hitting the metaphorical nail on the metaphorical head with the shiniest metaphorical wrench you've (n)ever seen! Keep up the awesome!
((Side note: Speaking of wrenches, I'm finding the lack of wrench iconography in this game slightly unsettling. Sure, wrenches might be a bit cliche at this point, but I find that they are quite like strips of bacon; you can never have enough of them.))

We should have a way to zoom out and view more of the factory for fixing a cog in the machine or admiring our own work.
