//:FORGE - [Subsurface Production Complex]

Description
"An engineer's wet dream of a factory come to life."

Some time ago my friends tasked me with constructing an underground production facility on the server we were playing on at that time. This is The Forge.

While its layout is purposefully confusing at the first glance it is actually quite simple: two "brown" ore lines ingest raw ore into the system via. conv. sorters. The raw ore is first stored in two ore silos until the 12 refineries start to process it. Up until this point, only the three ore lines on each side are interconnected to 6 refineries through the silos. After that, sorters allow all 12 refineries to output refined ingots to be exported to either the assemblers or the storage units. From here on the IQueue Production and Inventory Management script takes over and automatically produces the required components according to the quotas set in the custom data field of "FORGE// - Prod-Facility.Server #1". It also ensures that everything goes into the designated containers. I have already set the inventory sorting up. Finally, six internally interconnected lines carry everything from the site to where ever it might be needed.

It feature's:
- 2x Large-scale ore silos
- 14x LYNX Huge refinery modules
- 6x LYNX Huge assembly modules
- 12x Large freight containers (322,560,000l or up to 3,225,600,000l)
- Too many catwalks
- Too many lights
- Too many dangerously hot surfaces
- A definitely not OSHA-conforming work environment.

Please keep in mind that this BP is using modded blocks from:
- Hades Logistics - https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2810111584
or the original mod: L.Y.N.X Industries - Logistics https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2396736875

- Grated Catwalks Expansion: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2503712170

However, if you can't use modded blocks it should still be possible to paste most of this BP and then place standard refineries inside the refinery towers and create a custom production line using vanilla assemblers. You might have to do some touch-ups here and there though.

- Here is the link to the fantastic and very server-perf. friendly inventory management script I am using:

I'd be honoured if you were to use this blueprint in your own projects!
Should you have any further questions feel free to simply throw me a comment or DM me.

Any feedback is of course also heavily appreciated, thank you!

Same issues here.... its a really nice station, but it falls apart when you try and replace the huge assemblers and refineries..... i wish they would revisit this and design a version that accepts the vanilla units, and with no sorters for use with ISY's inventory script..... 10/10 for artistic design, i just wish it was usable on a server.....

@Rigsly I'm unable to find the original refinery/assembly mods and when I try to fit vanilla units in the 5x5x10 spaces the base falls apart. Any ideas?

@Rigsly This is beautiful. A lot seems to be missing. Any chance of an update?

the Hades Logistics mod does not work anymore, i've tried so many different things to fix it

Hey, I'm sorry to hear that. It seems that the custom "Hades" server mod that also includes the refineries is missing. For some reason Steam did not allow me to add it to the depency list. I am currently on vacation but I'll try and replace the refinery and production models with "stock" LYNX modules next week.

Mods list is incomplete, and must be properly updated with ALL mods as dependencies.

Pretty sick design! Sadly the Refinery towers are empty. Missing LYNX Huge refinery modules and I have the required mods and DLC you've listed. Everything else seems to have placed correctly even LYNX Huge assembly modules. Any suggestions?

looks very pretty
