+1 for city block design in SE. It has too much recipe interaction and breadth of ingredients for a main bus to be pleasant.

Thinking through how to transition from my bus to a modular design feels like it’s leveled up my Factorio-fu by an order of magnitude lol. I realized that I don’t need to start with full block design as long as I can work towards getting everything on trains. That’s gotten me moving again and I’m well on my way to the first off planet resources now. What a great game.

Same here! I started with bus, then moved on to train-based design that is slowly turning into a block design. Trying out many multiple block patterns spread wide and connected by rail.
