It's worked perfectly for me, 3k logistics bots in my network and rocket launched. I've never made a "mega factory" and I don't use trains, but I'd bet trains work just fine.

    I don't really know what a mega factory is, but I'm guessing it eats some CPU.

    Megafactories are those games where instead of launching one expensive rocket, you launch one or more per minute. They're usually at least 5 times larger than an endgame factory, and usually stop growing when the FPS drops below 30.

    I really like that definition, 1 rocket per minute=mega factory. I was impressed when I was doing 2 per hour (though it was a bit cheesed by having some extra ingredients buffered before the first rocket

    I think the more proper definition is 1kspm, so not only 1 rocket per minute, but also all the other sciences to match it.

    I ended up completely rebuilding my base once I unlocked trains. Hexes everywhere, each one a cell that peoduced one thing, and then I just built enough to support 500smp IIRC. My first rocket launch was from a 500smp factory with no logistics. It took me 80 hours to do that though. XD
