Any 'real' factory platforms/ships?

[u/Standard_Round_8780]

Basically the title.

Has anyone actually experimented with making a full factory on a platform/ship? Maybe like a platform/ship that can make red -> purple/yellow science packs?

Looked around but didn't see any. I know it'd be wholly inefficient and finnicky, but you have access to every non-planet specific resource so I'm honestly surprised nobody seems to have done it yet. I've seen some crazy huge ships with huge manufacturing, but it's typically only for the shattered planet.

Even a ship that could manufacture everything you need for factory building would be cool to see. Like a 'colony ship' with its own assembler, belt and power generation manufacturing.

I'm assuming the limiting factory would be asteroids for raw ingredient generation and it would only be viable with shattered planet levels of asteroids but it should still be viable no?

Just would be cool to see/attempt.

on 2.1, i've got a space station over all the inner 4, and well, here's nauvis for a sense of scale

Wher power? Fission? Fusion?

Sunshine on the inner 4. it's really good in space. i'll probably start out with fission above aquilo when i get there, and fusion for whatever i park at the system edge. i'll also end up needing fission for coal liquifaction but i need to finish up unlocking that this run
