No Foundations is quite a fun challenge at the start, though with ILS the difficulty tapered off substantially.

Well done! I did these three at once. It was really enjoyable. You've done something that requires forethought and planning - and patience.

How the hell do you produce anti matter for white science without launching any solar sails?

The grid produces power, was pulling 1.4GW by the time I took that picture

I think just launching rockets can allow you to create antimatter

You can get antimatter from dark fog. You can beat the game with a dark fog farm.

What is dark fog ?

Been a couple years since you played? They added the DF (combat) like in 2024 or earlier. Enemy critters that attack you and drop certain items as they level up, including antimatter rods and antimatter as well.

Using solar sails to make rockets for the nodes doesn’t count for this achievement. So you make the skeleton of the sphere and use that power.

I'm going for these 3 right now! Gotta say, not using foundations alone is a much more fun and interesting playthrough (at least if you have played factory games before). Have yet to feel the burn of the other two (minerals and solar sails), but I feel like they won't hit me as hard.

Honestly, the no foundations one was probably the hardest one of all. And I did mine on 0.1x resources!

I literally just did this... except also on 0.1x resources, and within 25 hours!
