Factorio Million Robot Challenge #256: Making Use Of The New Solar Array!

We're taking on the FMR Challenge, that's the Factorio Million Robot Challenge in case you haven't read the title... The aim is simple, reach one million active robots on our map!

Now that we have a new solar pattern planned out, we're going to start dropping it down on the map and making good use of it. The idea is to replace all of the existing panels with the new grid, then expand on it massively!

Rules of our own FMR Challenge
1. Reach one million active robots to win
2. Cover the whole map in trees
3. Lots of water cover, but not so much that makes enemies useless
4. Large starting area to allow us to get established
5. Very rich resource patches, but also very spread out

About the game
Factorio is a game in which you build and maintain factories. You will be mining resources, researching technologies, building infrastructure, automating production and fighting enemies. In the beginning you will find yourself chopping trees, mining ores and crafting mechanical arms and transport belts by hand, but in short time you can become an industrial powerhouse, with huge solar fields, oil refining and cracking, manufacture and deployment of construction and logistic robots, all for your resource needs. However this heavy exploitation of the planet's resources does not sit nicely with the locals, so you will have to be prepared to defend yourself and your machine empire.

Join forces with other players in cooperative Multiplayer, create huge factories, collaborate and delegate tasks between you and your friends. Add mods to increase your enjoyment, from small tweak and helper mods to complete game overhauls, Factorio's ground-up Modding support has allowed content creators from around the world to design interesting and innovative features. There are a range of interesting challenges in the form of Scenarios. If you don't find any maps or scenarios you enjoy, you can create your own with the in-game Map Editor.
