Hey sorry I meant respond earlier but I totally forgot I’d let you know how it went haha. So I tried it out, with the population over 80k and sims 3-4 hats educated, I was able to smoothly have the recycling center produce alloy and plastics, supply the processors plant, and have left over alloy and plastics to sell at the trade depot. The processor plant produced enough processors to supply the one omega plant with all four extension making drones, and still have plenty left over to sell processors at the trade depot.
I was very pleased with this and only started running in to “good” problems when my population started reaching upwards to 175k-200k, then my recycling plants were weren’t making alloy and plastics fast enough and there were too many recycling bins not being picked up. I tried plopping another recycling plant which helped but then I started having storage problems. So I took away the trade depot and added a trade port which then took everything away too fast and I couldn’t keep supplying my processor factory 🤦🏻♂️. That’s where I’m at so far haha.
So I’m just going to keep tinkering with it but you can, with the right population and education, use only recycling plant to run an efficient alloy, plastics, and processor town.
