From basic grey boards to advanced processing units, components require precise ratios of resistors, capacitors, and transistors. Because these recipes change as you unlock new tiers, create a tiered blueprint line. Ensure your basic board blueprint can easily upgrade into an electronic circuit board blueprint by adding solder and silicon inputs. Pro-Tips for Designing High-Efficiency Blueprints
Petrochem is famously the "brick wall" where many BA playthroughs stall. It deals with gases, oils, cracking, and synthesis.
Route excess secondary gases (like residual Ethylene or Methane) to Flare Stacks only when storage tanks reach 90% capacity, ensuring you prioritize utilizing the gases for solid manufacturing first. Tier 4: Bob’s Electronics and Module Labs factorio bobs angels blueprints
Master the Factory: Essential Bob’s & Angel’s Blueprints for Factorio (2026 Edition)
Simple automation layouts to get your factory through the burner phase. From basic grey boards to advanced processing units,
Which is giving you the most trouble right now?
: This suite focuses on resource refining and processing. It takes the raw ores Bob's mods introduces and makes their processing far more complex. The six core ores (Saphirite, Stiratite, Bobmonium, etc.) must be progressively crushed, sorted, floated, and leached to extract usable materials. What's more, Angel's mods introduce byproducts at almost every stage that must be managed or they will block your production. Combined with Angel's Petrochem , which turns oil processing into a realistic simulation of a chemical plant, the complexity becomes immense. Tier 4: Bob’s Electronics and Module Labs Master
But with that complexity comes a critical tool for survival: . In this guide, we’ll cover why blueprints are essential, how to design them for Bob’s Angels, and where to find community-shared ones.
Design self-contained squares (e.g., 100x100 tiles) with dedicated rail stations. One block takes in crushed copper and outputs copper ingots. If a recipe changes or expands, you overwrite that single block without breaking the factory. 2. The Micro-Bus System
To make these massive blueprints actually work, you should pair them with these specific QoL mods:
Create a new Factorio world. Use /editor to enable instant crafting and infinite items. Design one "cell" of production. Test it for 1 hour to ensure byproducts don't back up.
