Factory Builds

Choose a starter layout by phase and factory problem. Each card names the product, parts, startup order, community result, and the first failure to watch.

Before copying a build

Use the linked gameplay as a reference, then test the layout on your current patch with one product. Exact throughput depends on spacing, object loss, and the rest of the factory.

Early Duck Funnel

A short open funnel for learning panel placement and seeing exactly where the first feed stalls.

Phase 1Goal: reliabilityReported source rate: 12/min base, 30/min upgraded

Parts: one Duck Automater, basic panels, one wide funnel, and a short final lane. Keep every turn visible and leave room to grab a stuck Duck. The reported rates describe machine output; the Maw receives less if the lane leaks or jams.

WIDE TRANSITIONNO HARD INNER CORNER
Wide turns, fewer stalls

Slick Panel Register Lane

A wider low-friction path that reduces edge catches when the Cash Register shape rotates in transport.

Phase 2Goal: anti-stallThroughput: test in your factory

Parts: slick panels where available, wider turns, a visible final drop. Test transport with one Register before filling the line.

Community recipe

Three-Input Anomaly Staging

One Duck, one Cash Register, and one intact Piñata wait in separate lanes before entering the Anomaly Crafter.

Phase 4Recipe: 1 + 1 + 1Reported Anomaly value: about $1M

Startup: test each ingredient lane alone, stage exactly one complete set, then release a controlled batch. Throttle the Duck lane first if it buries the larger inputs.

Copy checklist

Record these details before rebuilding

Note the phase, target product, required tools, startup order, known failure points, and patch version. Test the copied layout with one product before filling the line.
