U3 Simple Modular Refinery

unlocked Stage 3 and need an example how to start?

look no further! here is a not so tightly packed blueprint folder with an expandable diesel refinery!

build main part 1 and take a look around.

you'll get rubber plastic and more important diesel, only if diesel is full it will stop refining. get a warning that you havent unlocked a part? dont worry it should work regardless. (if not write it here.)

the best part is this refinery is modular (see overview). in theory its unlimited as long as you add/upgrade pipes for more export/import. add 6 module 2? not a problem! more rubber? not a problem! dont like hydrogen? add module 3.3 ..

tltr: import stuff, make a lot of diesel rubber and plastic and some hydrogen. while its running look around and learn how to make your own. (o use it till endgame)

note: you want to upgrade the tanks/storage and they have import limits. the BIG ones are needed. i left the second crude oil input pipe as it is. extend it between the splitters if you need crude oil after 7 module 2's..
