Wiring the Breaker Panel

OK, so we are wiring up our robot right now, and we ran into a question. Should you wire the breaker panel down in numercial value, or should you load balance them? The reason we ask is the left has only one 30 amp circut , and the right side has the controller, compressor, and 5 spikes topower, about equaling each other out. Any suggestions???

P.S. The rules never mention anything about this, but the guidelines recomend numbering down on every number.
