If I have my factory produce items, do I get any crafting xp for them? Or do I just get the xp for maching the schematic?

You used to get xp if you were next to the factory but then they realised people were using multiple factories to grind exp so the exp got nerfed to like 10% of what you would normally get for that item.
In other words, not worth it.

So you get minimal XP from sitting next to the factory while it produces?

You'll have to check that yourself, this information was correct a few months into the game....coincidently I was grinding tailor at the time. When I could afford a factory I only got a day or two of full exp before they nerfed it. Hell only knows whats changed in almost a year, nothing has been documented but as no one uses this method anymore its an untested method.
Why would you do this anyway? It took a matter of hours to grind the crafting line of doctor making advanced biological effect controllers.

I am sorry if this appears off topic. I am wondering if anyone knows if there is a place where I can find some information about factories- such as what you need to keep them running; basically a general faq about it. Thanks

The Doctor FAQ on the second sticky at the top of this forum contains a section 'How to use a factory'. This will probably get you started on the right track.

Also the Architect Forum's FAQ section has a lot of information about factories if you're questions aren't answered

You can open both hoppers and drag directly between them - that's about as convenient as it gets, I think.

Do backpacks in factorys (filled with items) count as 1 item or 50?
And will backpacks with 50 items be counted at 1 or 50 items in the new vendor system?
