Outer Factory

About Outer Factory

Outer Factory is a peaceful and minimalist simulation where you design automated factories on different planets. Create complex infrastructures with simplified building mechanics. Enjoy your work as an interplanetary automation expert.

Designing Automated Factories

You start on a small planet with only a few resources. Build your first machines to extract and process raw materials. Place storage facilities to stockpile supplies. Use assemblers to produce products of varying complexity. Automate all processes, including delivery, by chaining your machines together.

Controlling Production Flow

Use magnetic tubes to connect machines. Products will always flow in one direction (from machine output to next machine input). The intelligent logistics systems automatically ensure that only materials which can be used by connected machines are passed on. By using filters, you can control the flow of goods even more precisely. You have everything at your disposal to develop complex production lines that meet your expectations.

Managing Long-Distance Connections

Magnetic tubes have limited capacity and are not suitable for long distances. Use autonomous trains to connect distant factories. Construct rail lines and determine which items are loaded and unloaded at storage depots.

Expanding Your Operations

Unfortunately, one planet is not sufficient to meet the growing demands. You need more sources of raw materials and more space. Explore the neighboring planets and reach your next cosmic location. Configure flight routes between the planets and let transport spacecraft handle automatic cargo distribution.
