Shapez 2 – Compact, Efficient, Modular 4-Lane CMAM Blueprint

Compact, Efficient, Modular 4-Lane CMAM

By Ursus.

Efficient:

  • Paints whole shape versions of quadrants before quartering them.
  • Only crystallizes when necessary.
  • Distributes paint for crystals across layers instead of along them.
  • Manual purge (send 86 instead of a shape) for more efficient changeover.

Modular:

  • The CMAM can be converted to a MAM by removing two types of platform.
  • Platforms are broken up by function to make changes easier.
  • Only 10 distinct types of buildings, only 2 of which are variations on each other.

Potential Improvements:

Automatic purge on changeover, either by understanding and rejecting ingredients, by detecting when most ingredients have been purged, or with a timer.

Centralize crystal brain, reducing repeated circuitry. Feed pins in from west side since they never need paint. Add dummy car at beginning of train to make delivery platforms more compact.

I love two things in life, games and sports. Although sports were my earliest interest, it was video games that got me completely addicted (in a good way). My first game was Crash Bandicoot (PS1) from the legendary studio Naughty Dog back in 1996. I turned my passion for gaming into a job back in 2019 when I transformed my geek blog (Re-actor) into the gaming website it is today.
