Few tips that might have helped you (of course it is always easier to point out mistake when you are a spectator 😉) : - Relying more one drones to deal with bringing back resources to your base. To some extent, when well upgraded, you don't even need to deal with bringing back resources, the drones can do everything for you. - Upgrading drone (number and speed) earlier, the cost is fixed and they last until the end, so the earlier you upgrade drones the more profitable they will be. - You forgot to use the "resource compacter" at several moments, you kept digging while there are iron piles next to you and your two "compacting charges" were ready to use. You'd better alternate compacting, and dig while the resource packer is reloading. Compact the resources as soon as there are enough resources to make full compacted bundles, there's no reason to save. - You could have sacrificed some blasting charge to widen the pathway to your dome like you did by mistake at 25:08, might seem like a waste of blasting charge but. We can lose a lot of time if we add up all the little moments we are helping/forcing resource bundles through a narrow pathway. Upgrading the drill would have also worked. Aside from that I don't see anything else. Your digging pattern using the blasting charge is perfect. Upgraded drones + compacting resources works very well in pair. Overall very pleasant gameplay to watch, I'll gladly watch future Beta gameplay . Good luck.
Thanks for the tip! I have tried to do this in previous off camera runs but in those runs I had an extreme excess of water and was also running engineer. Next time I'll try this and hope it works out since engineer isn't as good for resource transport.
