I use 2 factories, but i just propose components. I do final assembly. Im really impressed by you guys who can organize well enough to produce final droids into crates.


of course, im always hedging over what modules to install. I suppose if i decided to make ONLY probots with medical and item it wouldnt be as hard. Though those micro sensors are a bitch to factorize...

I only use 2 factories and do final combine manually. Can't have more factories without hurting my harvesting and can't stockpile too many part ahead of time without placing additional homes which again impact on my harvesters.

I need 4 just to keep up with my BH droid production. I make one run of 1000 of each type a week almost every week. When not doing that, it's cranking powerups or parts like adv brains or whatever. I have only ever made one set of complete droids in the factory. My customers are too varied in their needs to bother with it again.

I use two. One has crates of DE parts and I use the other to mass produce GP and Memories. I don't do factory runs of droid deeds. I build each one by hand. I only crate BH droids, batteries and Droid Storage compartments.

I've always used 2 factories, and they've always provided the right amount of production capacity. I only have one vendor to stock, so it's very easy to manage.

I use three factories. They are iddle more than half the time, but hey, 200 spaces of item storage each is cheap on lots

I mean with the exception of me not being able to log in during work hours or during the middle of the night, all four of my factories have been in 100% use since then. This has included 5000 MA parts, 2000 droid storage compartments.
