The one thing you absolutely don't want is for you to have more heavy or light oil than your chemical plants can process because if there's no more room for either of those, your refineries will stop making anything at all including petroleum. You don't have to worry about how that effects the ratios because the worst that happens is to have less heavy and light oil to turn into petroleum and some chemical plants stop until needed later. Use a pump to pull heavy oil for lube and light oil for rocket fuel before getting cracked. It might seem like a hassle but once you figure out that you need x heavy oil cracking and y light oil cracking chemical plants for every z refineries, it gets a lot easier. Once for advanced oil and once for liquefaction. Second, take the time to work out the ratios. Give yourself room, this is the worst place to have spaghetti if you want to easily see what you're doing. So first, go big on your oil processing area. The hardest part of using these is figuring out the ratios and giving yourself enough space to do it right. Look both ways before you cross the tracks.Īdvanced oil gives you more petroleum for the same amount of crude oil, and later coal liquefaction makes it just silly. The only significance is life, which leads to the further wisdom. Every assembler is but a visitor to where it resides. Let your anxiety wash away as you perceive that every belt placed can be moved. Most games punish you for building, demolishing and rebuilding. Your mistakes have no cost but time, and the deconstruction planner even reduces that cost.
