Buildings
Buildings are objects that can be placed on the world grid by the player and have unique effects on items and signals supplied to them. While most buildings can be created and destroyed in any quantity at will, there is only one Hub, and it cannot be moved, built, or destroyed. The Belt and Extractor are immediately available when you start the game. The other buildings and building types can be unlocked by completing different levels. These buildings can also be improved by purchasing upgrades with different shapes.
Regular Layer
The regular "belts" layer is unlocked from the start of the game, and is where nearly all pre-freeplay gameplay occurs.
