Base Design

The position of the facilities in relation to one another will provide bonuses to their output. For example, building Labs next to each other provide an adjacency bonus that increases the speed of research.

Be considerate of the available expansions slots you leave in the long-term. As an example, you could build several Satellite Uplinks for an overall lower monetary and resource cost than a Satellite Nexus. However, the Nexus takes up less physical space. Getting near the end of the game and finding out your limited on space, need to remove facilities (at cost), and then wait for new ones to build could cost you the game. On the flip side, there may be reasons you end up with 'extra' space: you may get lucky and have a lot of steam vents, you may be really good at combat such that you don't need as many research and manufacturing facilities, or you might just choose to protect a select few countries with fewer total satellites.
