Factorio The basics of Gleba

How Do I Get Seeds????

If you don't want to keep running out of seeds you'll need to process fruit in a biochamber, preferably with productivity modules.

You unlock the biochamber by "researching" the biochamber technology by crafting 10 nutrients (you need to harvest both tree types to unlock the biochamber tech)

I Have No Iron/copper????

Surprise! You barely get anything from processing fruits into metal, you need to grab that bacteria and cultivate it in a biolab to make more if you actually wanna go anywhere.

You need bacteria cultivation tech for this which requires you to craft bioflux which requires a biochamber.

Nutrients????

Yeah so you might have noticed you'll need one morbillion ever precious nutrients if you don't want your factory to completely stop, you'll want to get ever precious nutrients from spoilage (made in an assembler and not a biochamber) so you'll always be able to produce it and also from bioflux (in a biochamber) since it's the only efficient way to mass produce the stuff.

I'd recomment you transport the stuff via robots to save yourself a headache and a half.

Power?

Devs want you to use the Holy Heating Tower so you'll use the Holy Heating Tower, unless you import uranium I guess.

Sacrifice you exess stuff into the Holy Heating Tower, spoilage and seeds are the things you should be burning the most and you should also set it up so that rocket fuel is sacrificed to it if the heat that gives your factory life gets too low.

Oil?

There's no oil but you can make most oil items from spoilables.

Stompers??? What The ♥♥♥♥???

Yeah so Stompers can ignore most geometry and kill an entire factory wing in a few seconds so you'll need one trillion turrets everywhere, good luck!

You'll want bullet turrets since the devs force you to use them with resistances and you can't use flamers... or mines... but hey you can import tesla turrets! If you can't do that and don't have the iron for bullets you might need to settle for laser turrets. Either way invest in turret DMG tech.

You also can stall Stompers indefinitely with a shielded tank and repair packs since they can't hit bots, you should use this same tank to run over all nest in your spore cloud to significantly reduce the attacks you get.

Eggs?

You get eggs from spawners and stomper shells, you can duplicate them with nutrients and need to for science.

You should keep turrets around areas with eggs since they spoil into enemies and have a system where eccess eggs get Holy Heating Towered

Conclusion.

Become one with the swamp or it'll eat you.
