Steel backlog is built up, so I swapped back to ripping all that down, and laid out a rough guess of what I think the footprint of this factory will be. I'm gonna try and go for one large building, made up of one central factory floor, and a bunch of oblong wings shooting off of it, where all the production happens.
I then decided I need to have something of a "mini" logistics floor, to route all the ores. I want to do all the actual logistics up above head level again, but I also realized I don't want to mix all the ores into that, since they're spread out all over the footprint, but they're all going to be processed in the "Ingots" wing. They'll just run with no crossovers, merging or splitting, within a little 2m access layer.
Aaaaaand, that's pretty much all I got done today.
As they say, a good start is half the battle
