my porters keep going off wildly to a random point on the map after setting their pickup and destinations. When i do get them to cooperate they only seem to do it right once before freezing up. Am I doing something wrong?

There's a slightly unintuitive order to command based units in this game.  You first select a destination, then give an order that applies to that destination

Still can't line up assemblers and factories to hasten assembly.

You need to put a tutorial on the wiki page. I have literally no freaking clue whats going on here or how to use the assemblers. The part/base makers are making the pieces, but theres no options in the assemblers to do anything and the wiki has no information on how to actually USE the buildings.

The assembler just check for parts on both ends and if it's a valid recipe it destroys the parts and makes the unit.

The porters were a cool addition, but the way you give them orders was really janky.
To the point I didn't even touch rockets and just stuck with basic unit spam to win the map.

Kind of makes me wish we had some kind of basic inserter unit (the factory must grow!) that picked up the item behind it and put it in front of it for simpler automation, though you would need more space to set up bigger chains. So gotta push that creep back!
