    Starting a new save? What do you mean? Starting a new game? Loading an old save? Starting the process of creating a new save?

            I think the game is trying to teach you this by starting you without foundations or splitters. Throughout the game you repeatedly encounter new technologies that fundamentally change how you can build your factories to a new scale. Embrace it.

            FYI it’s all one big map. I’m starting in the forest this run and yeah the verticality of this region feels like it’s just asking for delicious bowls of spaghetti

              Forest starts with a GOATed group of iron nodes located not far from good copper, but the verticality of it and limited space in some sections does make it difficult to build around.

              Last time I started there, I ended up just building a large platform of foundations extending out from the cliff and opted to just run all the ore there before trying to build anything worthwhile.
