I want to use rails, I really do. But migrating and new colonies of beasts always destroy my railroads. Sure I can put turrets to protect them but that defeats the purpose. And if I just use artillery trains they still attack the rails. So I need roboports along the track to repair it. So I need electricity. All things considered it's just as efficient and much less difficult to just lay belts, no matter how far it is.

Am I doing it wrong?

Nice. It sounds like my type of game. 30 bucks on steam right now. I put it on the wishlist and will snag it next sale.

The devs have stated their game will never go on sale, so you might be waiting a while!

In that case I might have to op for the 100% off version. Thanks for the heads up.
