I use Android Tiers, Glittertech (no surgery), and Rimatomics. My colonies always end up with just the most insane defenses with super powered androids.
Anyone who makes their way to my colony will find the most lavish place on the rim.

You can export a whole workstation setup and import it in case it’s destroyed. You can even import it from a previous save.
