Introducing a vertical circular bus - A giant O of belts and lifters fully connected allowing for input / output anywhere along the bus.
Pros :
- Modular, you can build anywhere on the vertical bus stack
- Limits spaghetti by providing a clear and easy to access API for all players.
- Very fast to reach all parts of the factory since everything is very concentrated into a cube of productivity.
Cons :
- Satisfactory netcode doesn’t like SUPER dense areas, so it could become problematic for multiplayer.
- There is no priority mergers yet in Satisfactory, so if you want to prioritize a input to the bus you downgrade the belts/lifters feeding INTO the priority input, that way the belt will back up and the priority input will provide the bulk of the material.

A video of it in action would be nice
I put a bunch more photos in this post if you want lots of details : https://hackertalks.com/post/4670602
No video sadly, I don’t know where I’d upload it.
I see a lot of people use https://catbox.moe/ for basic videos. You could also find a peertube instance
Thanks!
I don’t know where the kids are posting videos these days, I’ll have to figure out somewhere other than Imgur eventually, but I don’t post a lot of videos either.
