Contains two silos for higher launch throughput and parallel rocket production.Blue‑Belt Production
Full blue‑belt production for your high‑throughput blueprint needs.Improved Recycling Loops
Updated layouts that automatically recycle and upgrade leftover lower‑tier entities.Reactor Production
Dedicated nuclear reactor building production.Quality & Tier 2 Modules
Module production areas for speed, efficiency, and productivity modules.Display Panels
Inputs/outputs now marked with display panels for better visibility.Bug Fixes & Tweaks
Various minor fixes carried over from QSB v11.x, plus layout optimizations for smoother expansion.

you should have both loading and unloading stations active. Also make sure EARN Core is placed on the network. If you couldn't figure out the issue, join our discord server and our community will help you there.

Not sure if I am missing something. I have upgraded to use to he full rail block, but I cannot get the dynamic Cargo trains to operate to collect from station, they just won't leave the depot. I have used the station load blueprint from EARN22 rails.
ElderAxe
I tested again but I couldn't reproduce this issue. I believe you shifted the offset of the blueprints. Can you delete the existing book and import it again by downloading latest one?

Hi! i've a probleme to the step 10: the blueprint does not match the elements already present, it is moved by one space, and when I move it, it jumps out of a space (same problem for the next ones as well). Edit: my bad, after some test, i think the probleme was due to a missclick before try add the step 10. I restart a game! Edit again: after restart a game, the probleme is the same: the step 10 dont match with other element (i've try to put only the step 0 and the 10 and that's match perfectly). But when i put the step 10 blueprint in first, the other match with it... it's really strange

Try dragging the txt file to game instead of import string.
Flieger
i cant import the string in the game

Yes it doesn’t have access to red circuits via belts. It has a requester chest which comes with future science blueprint. In the meantime you can use ghost requests to supply it
Ipsin
Unless I am missing something, the bulk inserter assembler added at stage 7 cannot access red circuits, although it can be fed once logistics is unlocked

i am on QSB version 22.0.10

I think there is a problem with the service/production train in the QSB. the third wagon wont request items. the constant combinator has the right program selected and the rest of the system reads it but the chest dont get a request
ElderAxe
Cliff explosives have a requester chest above it. At the end of the belt for red chips and sulfur. I think you're playing without Space Age and since that requester chest contains Space Age items, Factorio deletes that when you import the blueprint. I will release a new version to fix that problem.

Hello, QSB missing requester chest for cliff explosives.
Chris Corbin
It supplies iron plates to the Laser Turrets so it's only broken for that one item.
Chris Corbin
Looks like there may be a minor issue in the bottom left corner. An iron belt goes under, around and back under a Sulfuric Acid Chemical Plant but the belt doesn't turn correctly to go back under? Or is it just me?
ElderAxe
Thanks for the heads up. Updated the image.
Eric Johnson
Would appreciate ALT mode being on for the picture.
