Do people play with unlimited resources? It seems by the time I build a belt system fields are tapped out. It just isn't worth it.

- titanomachy 5y agoI build a belt system, and then bring in more raw resources by train when I deplete the starting-area fields.
- vbezhenar 5y agoYou need to explore around. There are very rich fields far away from your base. You need to setup outpost with train delivery and that'll allow to run for a very long time before those fields will expire. And then with bots it's just a matter of copy-paste new base and connect it to your railway system.
- detaro 5y agoAnd you get research that vastly improves how much you are getting out of a field, at least (post-)end-game.
- npteljes 5y agoI usually up resource richness at map creation, so that the fields last longer. I I think it doesn't take away from the game, because the size of the fields is still limiting, so there's need for exploration.
- ravi-delia 5y agoI find myself building a main belt almost immediately, pretty much right after getting a basic factory down. Really it's because my first base or two was just terrible spaghetti and when I was a new player I thought I could fix that by going with a central belt right off the bat. Since then I've loosened up much more, but I still like a central belt when I get the chance.
