Hi everyone!

Here is my Science Pact 1 assembling line. I think it is ultra compact.

I like your Version. Even though I tend to dont merge the copper and iron belts and just split them, resulting in an layout like this:
1+2
And this my Science Pack 3 production which is working really well if you have a good iron and copper supply:
3

For red and green one merged belt would cope a really high number of production. And with faster belts really any. (Blue is a bit different.)

In my eyes for red and green any optimization isn't needed, the first, ugliest, smallest layout will work; I think it's much more important to have short belts!

Because in the beginning every piece of iron counts and a belt can be seen also as a long storage, which stores about 6 items per tiles and lane. A long belt, let's say 20 tiles, stores 240 items!

This is most times completely underestimated, how much this is: This is the output of a mine for about 10 minutes!
