Two Base Dark Fog Planetary Farm

This blueprint is a planetary blueprint that allows only two dark fog relays to land. The defensive line is far enough back to avoid constant waves. I am using this in my 3,000% run and this farm only needs ~7 yellow shells per minute. If you are playing on normal difficulty the drop rate is likely high enough to sustain itself off the fog drops alone. However on 3,000% difficulty or with scarce resources turn on the drop rates will be too low and ~5/m yellow shells will need to be imported or built onsite.

No splitters are used, just filtered sorters. Every dark fog drop is collectable and has a monitor to let you know when any start to overflow so you can open up the drop menu and disable the excess drop item. I have used this farm to give me plenty of dark fog drops to supply my needs for the dark fog specific buildings and power rods well into the late game. Hyper late game my require a 2nd planet to supply enough Core Elements for fuel rods.

The farm can defend against full 180 unit lvl30 waves with only the yellow shells as ammunition. Purple shells can be used but are not required. Normal shells and/or relying on the laser turrets will work up to lvl20 or so. The defensive line also has assemblers to build all components of the defensive line so if anything were to get focused down it will be rebuilt automatically.

The best type of planet to build this on is the 1st planet in the system or a star with only one planet. this gives you the highest chance of getting a relay to land in the landing zone. It is also highly recommended to fully remove the dark hive from the planet before placing the blueprint as well as clearing the rest of the solar system so the hives have plenty of relays to send. Additional power may be required if you do not have enough geothermal power from reclaimed relay bases. Both poles are completely open for whatever you want, planetary defenses are needed somewhere. A bit more than half the planet is buildable as long as you keep ~100 tiles distance from the center of each hive to prevent rouge attacks.

If you want to adapt this build to have fight a never ending dark fog assault just wait for the dark fog base is fully develop then copy/paste the defensive line forward ~40 tiles. I have not tested this personally but I see no reason why it wouldn't work.

Any and all suggestions for improvement are welcome on the reddit post.
