[old yarrow]

How much waste does uranium and plutonium produce per rod thing

[hybrid void]

Cant you make like some ficsit ore from plutonium?

[jaunty jewel]

uranium 10 per plutonium 1 per

[tall lantern]

check the wiki, but plutonium's definitely manageable

[sturdy mural]

might be later in the progression

[old yarrow]

oh

[jaunty jewel]

ficsite ingots are with ||sam, aluminium/iron/caterium ingots with varying sam "efficiency"||

[old yarrow]

do you think its worth shipping uranium from accros the map or should i use converters

[sturdy mural]

URANIUM TRIAN!!!

[spark ruin]

(iron<caterium<aluminum)

[old yarrow]

the "green" line

[jaunty jewel]

im droning in my uranium since i can afford to do those due to "lower" throughput

[spark ruin]

it should be easy with drones

[jaunty jewel]

• im building close to 2 uranium nodes

[hybrid void]

||https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/Ficsonium|| its tier 9

[spark ruin]

and using converters for it is probably not a great idea

[sturdy mural]

i'm gonna go fully green (not ecological, Uranium)

(i'll dump waste next to a family of hogs)

[old yarrow]

lmao

[spark ruin]

thats bruttal WTH 🤣

[old yarrow]

tbh skill issue

[jaunty jewel]

ive said it before and ill say it again, aquatic alpha spitters are peak video game enemy design

[sturdy mural]

aquatic?

[jaunty jewel]

yes

like the one trapped in my refinery

[sturdy mural]

its too dark to see but awesome

[jaunty jewel]

id say let me find one but i already killed 80% of the wildlife here

[old yarrow]

they're not infinite?

[jaunty jewel]

no they are, theyre just currently dead

found one

[red sun]

they respawn but it takes a bit

[sturdy mural]

i looked up on wiki
THEY LOOK SO GOOD

[jaunty jewel]

i want to eat it

[sturdy mural]

wait the plains spitters are red???

[old yarrow]

they look like they could be pokemons

[red sun]

yeah i love all the different types of spitter

super cool

not as friends, they're all dicks, but design-wise they look awesome

they kind of remind me of what we all thought the ps5 would look like

[jaunty jewel]

i wonder if my phase 4 project assmebly is done yet

[static gull]

hey could someone maybe help with my world?

[jaunty jewel]

best to ask in #1038092680493801533

ah i have located the problem with my sulfur

no more scenic route for the train ill never ride anyways

[coarse geode]

man why do trains also have to be bugged

[jaunty jewel]

wdym bugged

[coarse geode]

they dont work

[jaunty jewel]

how

[coarse geode]

it says next stop unreachable why it is cleary reachable

[jaunty jewel]

probably a problem with signals

[coarse geode]

ive driven it myself 10 times and the game says its unreachable

[undone jackal]

Do doggos respawn? Never seen them again in a location after taming them there

[coarse geode]

bullshit game everything is bugged nothings working

[red sun]

couldn't tell you, i assume they respawn when one dies, though

[red sun]

check your signals

[jaunty jewel]

its most likely its your fault not the games fault

[red sun]

maybe you have one facing the wrong way

[undone jackal]

Prolly skill issue on ur side

[undone jackal]

Thats what im also thinking

[red sun]

i had this issue before and one of the rail segments wasn't quite connected properly

so check for that

[coarse geode]

what signals

everything has power

[red sun]

do you have path/block signals?

[coarse geode]

whats that

[red sun]

i'll take that as a no

check all your rail segments and make sure they're connected properly

particularly junctions if you have any

[coarse geode]

the train is literally infront of the station and it says unreachable

[jaunty jewel]

station could be facing the wrong way

[coarse geode]

everythings bugged in this game

[jaunty jewel]

its not bugged dude

[red sun]

i'm 99% sure it's not bugged and you've made a mistake somewhere

like gltich said, check the orientation of your station

[undone jackal]

Stop saying its bugged when u just dont understand how trains work

[coarse geode]

it is bugged otherwise it would be working

[jaunty jewel]

bro

low tier rage bait come on

[coarse geode]

then tell me why its not working when everythings properly set up

[jaunty jewel]

did you not read a single thing we said?

also how are we supposed to know when we can physically see your game

[coarse geode]

you said nothing that could help me

[jaunty jewel]

???

you said nothing that allows us to help you

[coarse geode]

fym facing? you think i rotated it 90° to the rail? 💀

[undone jackal]

Bro nah maybe u just placed one station 180 degrees so they arent alighed

[jaunty jewel]

180 but close enough

[undone jackal]

Thats hella nice of u lmao

[dense violet]

Make a qna post with high overhead images of your stations and rail

With a signal as the object you’re building to show the blocks

[old yarrow]

maybe the signal is forwardside back

idk what to call it

kebalik

[red sun]

backwards

[old yarrow]

yes

[red sun]

look at the arrow above the rail when you place the station. that arrow should be pointing in the direction the trains will be moving

[old yarrow]

i forgot the english word

[coarse geode]

what arrow

[red sun]

the hologram in build mode before you place the station down

[real wolf]

[red sun]

it should be above the rail of the station

[coarse geode]

there is no arrow

[old yarrow]

a small orange arrow

[jaunty jewel]

when its still a hologram

[red sun]

look at the roof of the station. the rounded end should be on the same side as the trains will be leaving, or where the front of the train will be when it's docked at the station

[coarse geode]

driven the route 5 times again and the game is still trying to tell me its unreachable, sure

[jaunty jewel]

dude please just read what people are saying holy shit its not hard

[red sun]

driving the route manually five times won't teach the train how to do it lmao

[jaunty jewel]

plus its probably still going in the station the wrong way

[red sun]

park up your train at the station and send a photo in #screenshots, we will tell you if it's facing the right way or not

[dense violet]

You being able to manually drive it means nothing.

Make a qna post if you want help

[jaunty jewel]

no you dont understand the games clearly bugged

[coarse geode]

bullshit game, why do you add functions thats are completely bugged like 90% of this game

[dense violet]

With images
As instructed

[red sun]

hello, earth to itheberke, is anyone there? can you hear us?

[red sun]

.

[dense violet]

Ok going to assume they just are just lacking any sort of attention irl and this is the only way they know how

[red sun]

let me make a tiktok tutorial rq

[jaunty jewel]

make sure the subway surfers gameplay is there

[red sun]

naturally

[dense violet]

Just link a yt tute.

They obviously don’t want help to solve the issue

[jaunty jewel]

yes because you cant help because the games buggy

[boreal musk]

if station is unreachable, that means either the railway is dead end or the station is flipped inward

[zenith pecan]

The station being the wrong way around is like the most common reason it's unreachable.

[jaunty jewel]

no the games clearly bugged

it didnt work first try so theres no way for it to work

[left totem]

wouldn't it be great if you could rotate stations 180° without destroying and replacing them

[trim swift]

is there someone with an base spreadsheet for satisfactory?

or how would you make it ?

[boreal musk]

even if you dont see the arrow, you can pay attention to the top side of the train station to see which direction it goes

[boreal musk]

base spreadsheet what?

[trim swift]

in general, i could use one for alluminum atm

[simple echo]

I wish there were inverted stair foundations so my corridors to the oil island/caterium/quartz manufacturing could truly be MC Escher-esque

[frozen cloud]

i use sftools instead

[trim swift]

is it in steam?

[boreal musk]

its a website

[trim swift]

hahahahaha

[simple echo]

I’m an artist, I have plenty of the stuff

[trim swift]

thank you so much

it seams a good site, just clueless

how tf do you start a production, i have the inputs but how do i process them

[dense violet]

Type in the output of the item you want

[trim swift]

i think i know why, i have by production my inputs

wait nvm i am clueless again

damn thank you so much for the website i will figure things out

[left totem]

IMO Satisfactory Modeler (on steam) is better because it's manual

[trim swift]

i have my aluminium scrap made, but i cant make aluminum ingots in the sftools

what am i doing wrong ?

[left totem]

can't help you I've stopped using tools back in 1942

[trim swift]

nvm nvm i found it

[barren steppe]

Hey does anyone know whether this game will launch on Nintendo Switch 2?

[trim swift]

i doubt it

[red sun]

i too doubt it

i'm pretty sure it's just xbox and playstation

but we might be surprised who knows

[trim swift]

to the people that helped me for using sftool, thank you so much, i just figured it out and it is just sooo nice

[dense violet]

ingots are fine now?

[trim swift]

yeppp

[old yarrow]

help when i scroll it doesnt change my weapon hand thing it changes my hotbar

and when i click it pings stuff

I didnt even know you could do that

[green fiber]

your alt key is stuck

tap it

oh look, another member of the frame family

Nuclear Pasta

[timid rune]

finally the pure iron part is done \o/

6600 iron ore/min into 12k ish ingot/min is pretty alright

[covert talon]

any good blueprint databases except for satisfactory calculator?

[dense violet]

hopefully this one won't need to be blocked

[prisma thicket]

Is there a good tool to help plan the layout of my factory? I'm using satisfactory tools to give me the numbers, but this one is a bit of a mess and I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around it.

[green fiber]

break it down into smaller parts

tools allows you to make multiple tabs

you can pick out some products and then let it plan for those first

[unique barn]

can you have too many block signals on your 2 way railway? outside of intersections anyway.

i'm designing 5 foundation long blocks and i'm wondering if i should put 1 block into the blueprint per side.

right now i dont really see how there's a downside to that since they dont work like in factorio, but maybe i'm not seeing something.

[timid rune]

signalling blocks should kinda be longer than your train length

[unique barn]

why

[left totem]

it doesn't change a thing, but 50 small blocks is better than 3 long ones

it's just more accurate

[unique barn]

if they reserve the full length of the distance they need to break at their current travelspeed then i fail to see how 1 block every meter isnt optimal (besides aesthetical and resource cost reasons)

[left totem]

the only thing, not even a downside, is that they will be in multiple blocks at once if the train is relatively long

which isn't a problem as long as there's always at least one free block between two trains

[unique barn]

yeah ik

it just seems kind of unnatural to have them be in multiple blocks, but mechanically this should be the better way to design a railway

[sick heart]

is there a way to remove/blow up uranium deposits without picking them up (and killing myself)

[left totem]

iirc the only way to remove deposits is by mining them
you could always use a iodine-infused filter

TLDR : No

[signal goblet]

Any word on when 1.1 is coming to full game?

[coarse geode]

ive driven the track like 40 times myself now and the stations are clearly both reachable but no the game doesnt understand

[green fiber]

Stations can only be reached from one side

Not from both
if you put it down the wrong way around, the locomotive will refuse to go to it

Without any images, theres no help possible

[junior laurel]

They give a release then they know they can meet the deadline. They don't rush nor do they crunch. Other then that,

When it's ready

[signal goblet]

Lol ofc.

Yah at least they don't say a date and then push it several times.

[true mulch]

better how
it takes long to build, doesn't help in any meaningful way and looks bad

• short blocks before path signals cause trains to brake when they wouldn't have to

[covert talon]

any good way to light up smaller rooms? all the light options are so big

[junior laurel]

Signs! :D

[covert talon]

im making a bathroom on my train station lol, maybe ill use signs as glowing tiles

[worn garden]

[mortal ginkgo]

Dear Chat. Why are Coal Generators so large?

Wny can't they be so, like, cute and smol?

[ashen belfry]

That's not even the largest building

[rancid turret]

factories are neither cute nor smol; also you have way more room than you think

[mortal ginkgo]

Brother I was like "zomg I haz the best idea" but oh boy I was like, hey biofuel burners be like so cute, so many coal bois bit bigger but still smol

[worn ember]

hey guys i searcherd the web and the wiki up and down - do I need to feed my lizard doggo AFTER I tamed it? or does it not matter? I mean it eats the berries I drop but can it also starve to death maybe?

[red sun]

nope, he doesn't need feeding or anything :)

[worn ember]

thanks

[red sun]

he'll just go off and do his own thing for the most part

[worn ember]

nope i made a pen

in that case he'll just chill in there

[worn garden]

guys can i have 2 trucks going on from the same truck station?

but bringing different recourses to the truck station?

[atomic notch]

guys im finally gonna use the charcoal recipe

[zenith pecan]

You can have multiple trucks drop differing resources to the same station, but having one station sending differing resources would be painfully spotty because of how it'll move entire stacks, so you'd really need multiple source truck stops, but queue time aside, one destination can work, provided I understood your question correctly.

[atomic notch]

That feeling when 2 powerplants get put on the to do list

[peak wasp]

what type of engineers are u guys (especially those with thousands of hours in satisfactory)

[zenith pecan]

I'm no engineer, and I build a lot of logistics under the map for simplicity.

[peak wasp]

can't wait for 1.1 release 😢

[atomic notch]

i always tend to go for simplicity but i also dont really care for aesthetics so my factories end up becoming amalgamations

but like i wont upgrade stuff if i dont need it

been running on like basic iron stuff but i gotta get hmf automated for blenders so now i gotta upgrade

thats why 2 powerplants got added to the to do list

been a lil slow but just got to p4 in like 60 hours on this world

[mortal ginkgo]

Guys I am so happy.

After some water issues, we got stable coal power.

I can cry. Imma cry actually. 😭

[atomic notch]

nice

[mortal ginkgo]

600 MW boi running good shrimp. Now gotta double it. ❤️

[atomic notch]

lol my biofuel is at like 2250mw

[mortal ginkgo]

brrrrrrrrrrrrrrotherman

[atomic notch]

its like 180 liquid biofuel p/m

[zenith pecan]

Keep a small-ish bio plant nearby, say 8 generators or so and a container full of solid biofuel so it can take up any power budget overruns.

[atomic notch]

yeah i went a lil overboard

[zenith pecan]

I did that with rocket fuel, I have no clue if I'll ever approach using all of its output, and I have nuclear planned again on top.

[plucky cradle]

Hey im trying to add my gportal server but when i click confirm in server manager, nothing happens. any ideas why?

[atomic notch]

rn my plan is get a diluted fuel power off a pure node, get hmf automated then build a turbofuel power

[zenith pecan]

I don't have any meaningful experience with servers at all, have you checked out #dedicated-servers ? , though some folks in here might.

[plucky cradle]

oh ty, didnt saw taht

[atomic notch]

only got lik 100 hmf and i am not handcrafting haha

[sharp kestrel]

ngl i want artillery and turrets with a wave def in satisfactory

[atomic notch]

its not that kinda game tho

go play factorio lol

[sharp kestrel]

to be fair artillery being shot would look awesome and sound awesome

[worn garden]

I love spreading managed democracy all over the place

also WTF IS WRONG WITH TRUCKS

THEY GOTTA BE THE WORST THINGS TO EVER EXIST

THEY ARE SOOO DUMB

one truck unloading in the other truck station mixed up the materials, fucking crashes into other trucks

they are just soo dumb i hate tehm

[atomic notch]

yeah

agreed

[quick sky]

I want to build everything but I don't have infinite time

How do I fics™️ this

[atomic notch]

build what u have time to build ig

[quick sky]

no...

[worn garden]

pay me i will build them for you

[quick sky]

how much do you want

[worn garden]

and you can earn in your limited time to pay me to build

[quick sky]

how much is your pay rate

[worn garden]

i am just asking a very normal pay of 5 dollars per hour

[atomic notch]

open a lfg people will do it for free

[quick sky]

sorry, most I can spare is 120 stacks of screws per day

[quick sky]

what's that

[atomic notch]

#1201555265942724758

[worn garden]

stop ruining my business deal here 😠

[atomic notch]

shady ass business deal

[quick sky]

I hadn't even considered that satisfactory has a multiplayer ngl

[worn garden]

we can play together :3

[atomic notch]

beware some people will just ruin ur world haha

[covert talon]

i tried multiplayer with two friends that are new to the game and its like bring ur kids to work day

[quick sky]

"what do you mean you don't know the prime factors of 720"

[worn garden]

don't worry i am a completly peaceful raceist person

[quick sky]

peaceful racist be like: I'm judging you internally, but only internally

[worn garden]

i love racecars

[worn garden]

sooo true i cried

[covert talon]

even worse is they didnt understand the concept of manifolds

so they made ridiculous load balancers

and im a big manifold fan

[quick sky]

ah yes let us divide 37 iron ores perfectly into 5 belts, this will for sure work

[covert talon]

120 ore into one smelter doing 30 ingots into two constructors needing 45 ingots

metal plate and iron rod automatized boss👍

[quick sky]

same species that went to the moon btw

[covert talon]

😭😭

They should add ficsit coupons to signs, its like one of few items not there i think

[quick sky]

is there anyone else who just builds the highest available tier of conveyor for everything or is it just me

[covert talon]

same, especially on mk6 since they look clean and dont take much space visually

[atomic notch]

i usually have like m1 on the hotbar then just cycle through

[zenith pecan]

I use only the highest necessary mark of belt for required throughput, some really low output applications look lifeless with an empty belt and the odd item zooming by at supersonic speeds, I just don't like it.

[covert talon]

i like the dramatic mk1 belt on space elevator parts

since u just make like 2 per min anyways

but for factories all my belts are usually hidden anyways

[quick sky]

im on mk4 belts rn and I just can't be bothered to switch since I have so many encased industrial beams available on tap

[zenith pecan]

Here's an old example, it just looks cool #design-and-architecture message

[covert talon]

also on mk4 rn but theyre so bulky

i basically only use them too but i hide them

[coarse geode]

drove the train track for the 100th time now, everytime the stations were reachable, idfk what the game is on about

[atomic notch]

the way i build trains all i gotta do is add the station to the timetable and its good to go

[quick sky]

that's not my primary concern... #design-and-architecture message

[covert talon]

im glad you put walls on them so no one has to see them

[quick sky]

I still see them. In my sleep.

[covert talon]

my multiplayer save's newest creation lol #design-and-architecture message

[quick sky]

WHAT in GOD'S NAME are those PRICES???

20 for a doner?? what's it made of, 24k diamonds???

[covert talon]

Norwegian prices, thats normal

[quick sky]

[covert talon]

😣

just build a new one tbh

thats what i do at least

[quick sky]

just do like what real capitalists do and leave your trash everywhere before exploiting new resources

[atomic notch]

find more coal

[quick sky]

the map is huge. Walk a few steps, find all new resources

that's a 5 minute walk

[atomic notch]

sucks

[quick sky]

delete what's broken and make it not be broken

[atomic notch]

check inputs and outputs make sure all the math works out, other than that its just design preference

[covert talon]

distances arent a problem really, just takes some time before the resource arrives but itll be same speed so doesnt matter really

[atomic notch]

sure

[covert talon]

no

[atomic notch]

then dont

[quick sky]

don't do it all at once

[covert talon]

just make storages for all the resources you need from ur old factory

[quick sky]

just take it one thing at a time, you'll be done in no time

[covert talon]

and then use the resources to build a new one

[quick sky]

yeah it typically isn't 😆

[atomic notch]

oh ur on terrain?

make a road

[quick sky]

foundations

[covert talon]

curved roads such a pain

i wanna make curved inclines but it looks ugly

[quick sky]

square roads 👌

[atomic notch]

nice

[covert talon]

are u using 100% of the coal?

can also overclock if ur conveyors can handle it

[atomic notch]

i also happen to be workin on steel rn

[quick sky]

just get more coal it's not that hard

[covert talon]

nothing is expensive if ur factory is efficient enough

[quick sky]

just automate stuff

[covert talon]

did u try building ur factories backwards?

[quick sky]

think about what you want, not what you have

[covert talon]

you start by deciding ur final output like lets say 5 computers per minute, so u place ur two assemblers and then consider what u need to input

then you go backwards one stage at a time until all u need to do is put raw resources

[quick sky]

also make sure to understand that this planet exists to be turned into profit, it's very important

being frugal is not a thing in satisfactory

[atomic notch]

im pretty frugal lol

[quick sky]

i'm telling ADA

[atomic notch]

ficsit doesnt waste

[covert talon]

ficsit sends all excess into SINK

u can make hypertube cannons with them which are useful, tubes are nicer for short medium distance id say

[atomic notch]

like 1000 ish meters id build a hypertube

its usually out to steel

[covert talon]

i mostly use them between them parts of one factory so i don’t have to navigate

between larger areas i’ll use hyper tube cannons or vehicles

[brave wasp]

uh ohs power draining

3 per set of steel item you need

[atomic notch]

rn i got 11 foundries makin 900 steel pm and 520 iron pm

[brave wasp]

ah my uranium loop broke

[peak wasp]

lol fr

even in switzerland the prices are cheaper

[brave wasp]

hypertubes and rocket fuel and jump leg thingies

zipline / jetpack

[latent prawn]

there's a few tech unlocks that dramatically improve your mobility. The blade runner tech in the quartz mam tree make you run a lot faster, and later the jetpack unlock is very nice for side-jumping into a fast flight. Besides that, getting comfortable using the slide-jump mechanic for moving around is very useful. Outside of that, you have vehicles/hypertubes & hypercannons at your disposal and then late game, the portal tech

[brave wasp]

ugh over sulfuric acid my uranium crap again... i undercut it and it still went out

[cyan garnet]

As has been mentioned multiple times, your station is backwards. It doesn’t matter if you can drive it manually. The curved side of the station needs to be facing outwards with the flat side of the station being attached to your freight platforms

[leaden turret]

🪂

[brave wasp]

havent used a parachute yet ;p

[coarse geode]

wdym backwards

[cyan garnet]

Look at the curved side of the train station

[leaden turret]

facing the wrong way

[frozen cloud]

what should be front is back

[cyan garnet]

#satisfactory-experimental message

[zenith pecan]

Something like #satisfactory-experimental message

[cyan garnet]

Helpful mspaint taro made earlier

[leaden turret]

sarcastic option for making sure train station is the correct way around:

name it "this is the front"

if you can read the sign, it is placed correctly

[zenith pecan]

Hehe, we both posted it 🤣

[coarse geode]

i dont understand

what do the lines mean

[cyan garnet]

Look at your station. Look at the curved side

[latent prawn]

ooh, forgot about the 'chute, yeah that one too

[cyan garnet]

The horizontal line is the rail. The rectangles are freight platforms, the rectangle with the curve on one side is the station

[prisma thicket]

Nicely done. Did you do just steel beams and pipes, or all the steel products like encased industrial beams, motors and versatile framework as well?

[brave wasp]

if you need more miners then get more nodes going

[cyan garnet]

Research dimensional depots in the MAM so you don’t have to “go back to base” for building materials

Will save you oodles of time in the long run

Cloud inventory for your build gun

Go look at the alien tech tree in the MAM

[prisma thicket]

It lets you store stuff in it that your build gun can access anywhere in the world.

[cyan garnet]

Don’t sleep on MAM research

[atomic notch]

Tryna decide if i just wanna belt in all the limestone or setup a train

Ehh ill see how far one node can go lmao

Normal so like 300 a min i to wet concret

[prisma thicket]

Where is your coal generator setup? Maybe we can help you locate another coal node so you can have steel AND power

[atomic notch]

Yeah dude i feel it

[cyan garnet]

Why would you remove a source of coal from your power if it was stable?

Did you not math out how much coal you were using vs how much available?

[atomic notch]

Hes just facing the consequences of his actions rn

[cyan garnet]

Do you have any capacity to overclock your miners to make up the difference?

[cyan garnet]

The “finding out” phase

Power shards. Also researched in the MAM

[prisma thicket]

Power Slug research in the MAM

[cyan garnet]

Again, do not sleep on MAM research

[atomic notch]

Its normally something you have to find out on ur own

U just get dropped in a game with a zapper how much u can comorehend is up to you

[prisma thicket]

Good, you'll need more than just 1 though, you need some for reasearch and some for making into power shards

[covert talon]

have you guys ever experienced running out of resources on the map?

[cyan garnet]

IMHO you should focus on getting your power stable first before worrying about anything else

[cyan garnet]

You mean every node of the map? Or just nodes of a certain type?

Overclocking also does this

[atomic notch]

Pro tip when you u lock overclocking and underclocking you might be able to underclock a bunch of stuff and save power

[cyan garnet]

A mk1 miner running at 200% (two power shards) produces the same amount that an mk2 miner on that node would make

Yes

[atomic notch]

Yeah like 270 if u get mk3

Belts

[cyan garnet]

The most ore you can get in the game on a node is a fully overclocked mk3 miner on a pure node = 1200/min

[prisma thicket]

but to overclock you'll need more power, so better to make sure your power is running steady

[atomic notch]

Oc ur bio gens

[prisma thicket]

That can be a pain to keep up with though

I'd rather just add more bio burners than overclock them

Steel pipes takes 2/3 of one foundry of steel ingots

[cyan garnet]

Did you get your power stable first?

[prisma thicket]

steel beams require 4/3 or 1 and 1/3 of a foundry's output

[covert talon]

one certain type

[prisma thicket]

https://www.satisfactorytools.com/1.0/production?share=k9Z6JtRPHoFrRumd5j5V should I just make this one big pipe network for the water?

[frozen cloud]

yep

[prisma thicket]

Alright, thanks

[mystic stratus]

hi

[brave wasp]

everything will have a use eventually best to automate for the future

[cyan garnet]

It’s easy to run out of SAM, esp if you are doing the full ficsonium nuclear chain at max production. Otherwise, no not really

There are power slugs all over the map. The blue ones are generally the easiest to find

Slugs, sloops, and spheres are really easy to hunt for at night as they all glow and have no falloff for their glow so they can be seen from far away

[elder apex]

don't forget that artifacts can be heard as well, even through solid objects like the ground

[cyan garnet]

Press O in game to open the cOdex- will show you every recipe you have available

You can also use the quick search with N which also functions as a calculator. Just remember N for Nalculator

[night gust]

do someone speak polish

[lament niche]

where are you getting the extra thirty from?

[prisma thicket]

Steel beams require 60 ingots per minute, pipes require 30

[rugged abyss]

when is 1.1 coming out of experimental?

[prisma thicket]

They haven't announced that yet

[rugged abyss]

what would you estimate?

[prisma thicket]

No idea, they'll release it when it's ready would be my guess

[cyan garnet]

When it’s ready

[elder apex]

i predict it will come out on a day ending in the letter 'y'

[cyan garnet]

Probably weeks to months, they won’t announce anything until it’s close

Everything we know is in #announcements

[prisma thicket]

I believe this to be true and accurate.

[lean quail]

man i wish you could remove items from the dimensional depot list in your inventory

[leaden ether]

If you mean use them first you can, also at some point in research you can upload them to the DD from your inventory (Though in practice this is rarely that useful)

I do wish that the DD upload rate would be in stacks per minute, not items per minute though.

[lean quail]

well, while out exploring i used it to have extra space for loot i found

but now i permanently have "Rifle Ammo" in the list

i am never ever gonna use it again and its just annoying and fills the list

[brave wasp]

wouldnt worry about it... you can take it back and trash it if you really care but each item has a number of things to store

[lean quail]

i ended up sinking the ammo cuz i dont use nor have the gun and dont plan to

but now the list is permanently longer to look through

[brave wasp]

honestly gun kinda nice

[lean quail]

i ususally explode enemies or place smt to deactivate their spawns

[leaden ether]

Oh i see... You can pin your most used items and they will sit at the top of the list. Pin everything you do use mostly and the others wil sit languishing at the bottom of the list anyway

[coarse geode]

omfg i hate pipes, it just makes 0 fucking sense

[leaden ether]

Yeah I was struggling hard yesterday to optimise the rocket fuel creation part of a new power plant and was only able to get the througput to about 90% of the theoretical max after tons and tons of tweaking on all the various piping stages. :/

[unique barn]

wait till you get to railroads and how they connect, you'll be begging for them to have pipe logic

[leaden ether]

ANd even then it fluctuates from 85 to 95 almost constantly 😦

[brave wasp]

just have to do splits rather than 1/3rds ... easier to manage

[leaden ether]

Atleast you don't have to deal with refuling a train compared to the other delivery methods 🙂

[unique barn]

do you refuel your waterpumps/miners?

genuinly no idea what the comparison here is lol

[leaden ether]

I meant in that case trains compared to other vehicles.

[unique barn]

oh yeah those exist, right

[leaden ether]

Trains are a logistical nightmare at times, but atleast you don't have to manage fuel wich is it's own headache.

[unique barn]

we dont use those, ever. just hypertubes straight to trains, vehicles are kinda really awefull in this game

[brave wasp]

i dont understand trains... why do trains when you can do belts at lightning speed?

[leaden ether]

Trains are "neat"! 😄

[frozen cloud]

cause choo choo cool

[unique barn]

aestetical reasons

[atomic notch]

cuz id rather have trains everywhere than belts everywhere

obv🙄

aslo easier to upgrade

[brave wasp]

meh 86 hours and working on phase 5 / last achievements you can have your trains ;p

[atomic notch]

oh well if u speedrunning then im not gonna talk to you lol

opinion discarded

[brave wasp]

not speedrunning just trying to be efficient with time

[leaden ether]

If fuel isn't an issue, drones are pretty nice for lower quantity items between factories.

[brave wasp]

so much nicer to sink oil into the stuff you actually need rather than fuel

[leaden ether]

Well like my electronics factory nees a ton of plastic which means lots of waste to turn into free fuel.

But setting up a mini fuel factory at every factory is a little 😦

Better than stting up truck routes though, unless you really need volume.

[brave wasp]

if you just start your cement and encased beams early into large storage then into dimensional... you got plenty of materials for belt the whole world

[atomic notch]

yeah but thats just 480 belts

[leaden ether]

Speaking of belts, since the highest one is only 780 resources/m, how can you get the 1200 out of a mk3 max boosted miner anyway? It seems like it should have two belt connections or something.

[cyan garnet]

Mk6 belts are 1200/min

Unlocked in tier 9 (phase 5)

Reminder that the fandom wiki is not official any more and is out of date. Make sure you are looking at the gg wiki

!wikisearch belt

[fossil ice]

[twilit remnant]

is a calculator that helps building circuits with the least structures possible instead of the least material possible?

[frozen cloud]

https://satisfactory-logistics.xyz

[leaden ether]

Ooooh... I guess I haven't gotten thouse yet 😄

[toxic plank]

What do you guys think are some essential factories to have once you start phase 4 space elevator

[marble fractal]

This game is so hard

[twilit remnant]

i think it calculates the cheapest way to produce an item in term of material cost not in term of building

[frozen cloud]

in Inputs/Outputs you can select what to minimize
resource, power or area

[twilit remnant]

ty it works, but i was wondering what the area option means beacause it should reduce the space occupied but it looks only 10x biiger

it seems minimize power the best option right?

[quick sky]

Which things should I craft away from the main plant before loading them onto a train?

[sullen gull]

I meant, Good afternoon folks!

[sullen gull]

All depends on where you main base is, how you want to play, etc.

Essentially, as a few have pointed out before, there doesn't have to be a 'Main base' because you could just disassemble the HUB and reassemble when needed. Space elevator is a tad more difficult due to item count, but still. Or you could build one central main facility and ship all of the items there. In that case, you pick sections closest to everything you may need, build from there, ship, etc. So many different styles, answers, ideas. You save the day how ever you fancy :).

Ideally though, your main ones are probably going to be anything with oil, coal, maybe sulfur and quartz. Those are the 'rare-est' and most spread out.

[leaden ether]

Around that time I built an iron works which produced (and mostly DDed) all the iron steel and copper based items up through motors and then later added the turbo motor etc. I also build a large electronics factory that build all the electrical types of things and they both, with a few other smaller factories carried me through to phase 5 really well. Course I took a lot of time off from progressing to make them.

Now in phase 5 I have not figured out yet how to make an entire nuclear/alien tech factory yet...

[static surge]

got inventory upleading for the DD and launched myself into the rocky desert to collect power slugs and get destroyed by radioactive superhogs

tons of mercer spheres and slugs

[leaden ether]

Oh between phase 4 and 5 I created a munitions factory as well. Rifle ammo, nobelisks and both filter types. Evreything you need to protect yourself against nature 😄

[cyan garnet]

Aluminum. It is foundational to most everything in the phase. Look at the resources needed by the milestones, pick one, and go

[leaden ether]

Oh man forgot about the aluminum plant, yeah that's another big one, all aluminum parts 🙂

I need to remake my iron works and aluminum factories at some point, they started small and grew into a mess. I planned ahead better with the electronics and munitions factories and those are pretty good for the duration I think.

Unfortunately when you don't really know what all you will need, it's hard to plan a good base factory :/ Mainly just try to leave room for expansion of throughput and additional products if you can.

[reef basin]

don't rebuild factories, build new ones

imo expanding a factory isn't the way to go, unless you've planned your entire game

[leaden ether]

It is a pain tearing a factory down to rebuild it better, the game does not make that easy at all. I have a hard time just leaving too much junk around though :/

[reef basin]

that's why you leave it be and build new one

[zenith pecan]

I'm always blowing up old facilities, primarily to free up high yield nodes and not leave random objects clogging the map which add up, given that I'm usually over the object cap anyhow,

[mortal ginkgo]

after playing DSP, I really started to like the relaxing and no time limit nature of the game.

I am not under attack, my nodes are not depletinng, and I get to decorate stuff with what little I have in phase 2.

Life is good. Kittens and puppies are in danger but its ok.

[sturdy mural]

holy cow

the hoverpack feels like cheating

[mortal ginkgo]

Watch Tower my beloved.

[sturdy mural]

the range is so big oh my

[vernal musk]

Is there an estimated window for the release of 1.1?

[reef basin]

when they announce it on #announcements, we'll know

[topaz gust]

What is your biggest power plant

[tall lantern]

40x50 foundations, not including the actual factory making the rods

[topaz gust]

i mean in raw power

[tall lantern]

||I know 😝 || 450GW

[topaz gust]

Damn im building a power plant that when finished will make over 130 GW only on rocket fuel

[rigid flint]

rocket fuel, 280k not counting alien amplifiers

[reef basin]

280kW is not much power 😄

[rigid flint]

i know

[reef basin]

one gen does more than 280kW 😄

[rigid flint]

but i really prefer fuel generators

oh my bad i ment 280gw

[elder apex]

that 280kW plant was only for the coffee maker

[rigid flint]

yeah lol

[forest bridge]

Is it possible to load up one freight car at two stops with the same item

[atomic notch]

Sure

[forest bridge]

Yay

[atomic notch]

Adding stops decreases throughput

[forest bridge]

Yeah that's fine, I just have a train delivering quickwire but it's only stopping at one node so it only gets like 2 stacks

so I'm adding another stop at a second deposit so it can get more quickwire

[vernal musk]

I just finished building mine

[covert talon]

how do you guys go forth to make conveyors from miners to the factory look good

or subtle at least

[wispy fox]

early access supporter items go brrrrrrrrrrr

[winter skiff]

anyone got a good spot for setting up aluminium? I'm in the red wood forest thing and there are NO quartz but i feel like im gonna need it because the quartz from the refinery with the bauxite recipe is not gonna be enough

[wispy fox]

nope

anyways ello

[rich ivy]

i have enough coupons saved up in the sink to buy every single statue in one purchase

[wispy fox]

i forgot this place has slowmode which is annoying

[rich ivy]

should i redeem em now or wait till i finish the game first

[wispy fox]

REDEEM

[rich ivy]

cause im super close, i just gotta automate ficsonium and the space elevator parts and im DONE

i got 1592 coupons ready to print

[wispy fox]

HEAVY MODULAR FRAMES ARE EPIC YOU WILL BECOME MY FRIEND

[quick sky]

Yay it's time to automate HMFs

[wispy fox]

i mean im starting out almost got wries being automatically made

[rich ivy]

heavy encased frames are your friend

[quick sky]

Not enough drives

[rich ivy]

get exploring then

[quick sky]

Not enough patience

[rich ivy]

skill issue

youre making your life harder by using the default hmf recipe

nobody wants to deal with screws

[quick sky]

I have found 30 drives in 80 hours already I can't spend all my time 'splorin

[sturdy mural]

guys regular nobelisks or explosive rebar?

[quick sky]

It's ok I got a really good BP setup, the major difficulty is translating the satisfactory tools guide to a floor plan

[sturdy mural]

those were alright for me???

[leaden ether]

The quantum encoder puts on a bit of a light show... 👀

[sturdy mural]

and now i have a dillema
encased frame, or fine blakc powder

[rich ivy]

ive always wondered what goes on inside an encoder

[sturdy mural]

some encoding duh

[rich ivy]

like a converter i have a pretty good idea, my headcanon is that its a manmade mercer sphere and the weird noises you hear when its powered are the ambient noises of that weird void dimension thingy

[true mulch]

Encased frames are the only HMF recipe I use

[sturdy mural]

wait what

whats the diffirence

screws to concrete??

[rich ivy]

yes

screws are the root of all evil

[sturdy mural]

also .8 more speed

[sturdy mural]

why? 😭

[rich ivy]

because they are

[true mulch]

Less of everything, no screws but lots of concrete

[wispy fox]

Is it normal to name your satisfactory games zamn zaniel ur rur ur rur ur ur

[sturdy mural]

my save is UNsatisfactory

[rich ivy]

my current save has been "1.0 yaaaaaaay" for the longest time

[wispy fox]

Do thou want to play together

[sturdy mural]

ask my internet

[leaden ether]

For basic parts, the screws and heavy modular frames are the worst. Screws because of mass quantities of course but anyone else feel that HMF are a bit difficult for the level they are? Not sure a full manufacturer should be required for something that mid of an item.

[brazen hinge]

Mine is “ohdear made me play this game” reference to a head mod in a discord server

[rich ivy]

i hope my mods get 1.1 ports cause i had an idea of like

a "world tour" video using the new photo mode

[marble fractal]

Is there YouTubers I can watch that will help teach me things

[rich ivy]

bitz is good but be warned hes pro-ai (i think)

[sturdy mural]

pro-ai?

[marble fractal]

What does that mean

[rich ivy]

he has an ai generated thumbnail for his discord because he couldnt be arsed to hire a real artist

[wispy fox]

Can you ask it for me?

[brazen hinge]

I just made my first HMF factory and it makes 6 per minute without screws and without sloops

[sturdy mural]

ew

[rich ivy]

yeah thats why i have a combined time of 2 minutes in that server

[brazen hinge]

But it takes a lot of materials

[rich ivy]

i joined and immediately regretted it

imkibitz is pretty okay as well if you can tolerate painfully unfunny and annoying voices

[sturdy mural]

uhh
are the # big texts blocked

[sturdy mural]

i like kib ngl

[brazen hinge]

I looked in the rules and saw nothing about it

[sturdy mural]

i did not just consider trashing 2 hard drives for an inv slot

[rich ivy]

he makes good videos

hes just one of those youtubers that you wished would shut the fuck up for once

[sturdy mural]

i saw 2 nuclear powerplant vids
1 abt collecting slugs first, then the efficient blueprint for manus

[spark ruin]

some great cofee ngl

[rich ivy]

hhhh

[sturdy mural]

make sure that it doesn't stain

[charred sentinel]

The thing that bugs me about youtubers is they seem to stretch everything to about double the length needed. It's like they get paid by the second.

Now, a question - I have a memory of someone saying that the Pipeline Floor Holes are buggy in 1.0. Are there issue with them, that y'all know of?

[rich ivy]

i still cant decide if i wanna redeem my coupons now

or wait

[sturdy mural]

you can redeem them and if you decide to redeem it back, just redeem at least one and put the redeemed ones into the slot

[sturdy mural]

iirc you need to hit at least 20m for some pay milestone

i feel smart i used 2 mk2s to filter a splitter into 360 and 240

[brazen hinge]

They do

[brazen hinge]

Don’t redeem sir

Do not redeem

[static gull]

https://tenor.com/view/maxwell-the-cat-gif-62830199161662213

hehe

[marble fractal]

This game is giving me a headache

[elder apex]

become caffeine free and you'll have less headaches

[left marlin]

I felt the same with my last build.. took a break because of the headache I was getting from the pipes not working correctly lmao]

[mortal ginkgo]

this games fluid system is just.. a pure treasure

its just unique

[static gull]

damn its hard to wait for someone to join

as i've made a group

[peak wasp]

Curve conveyors are the best thing ive ever seen ever

Same with being able to place conveyor holes anywhere

Now my belts wont look so horrid at weird angles bc of where my input belt is thats going to the conveyor hole

[sturdy mural]

i automated nobelisks and pulse nobs while at it

:D

[cyan garnet]

counterpoint: more coffee

[cyan garnet]

curved build mode is fantastic for going across landscape

[elder apex]

he/she is a can of pepsi, does coffee and pepsi go well together?

[peak wasp]

Hell yeah

[cyan garnet]

anyone remind me where the entrance to this cavern is to get at this sloop north of the desert canyon? I know I found it successfully in my first playthrough at least #screenshots message

edit: found it, ||hiding behind one of the waterfalls on the SW edge of that large plateau, enter from the canyon side||

[peak wasp]

Plus when using curved building the conveyors dont look it has weird bumps in it

[young crest]

Just unlocked trains lets go

[cyan garnet]

choo choo m*********er

[young crest]

I built a really high plattform for my train station so i dont have to deal with terrain

[elder apex]

crap, i was just typing in a response

i had to go refresh my memory of which one in particular that was, been a long time since I had to do any artifact hunting.

[cyan garnet]

the chamber with the somersloop has an indiana jones raiders of the lost ark beam of sunlight that streams in from above, it's rad. wonderful world design

[marble fractal]

Lmao I just got the math done, I haven’t even started with pipes. I’m trying to make a turbo fuel power grid

How many giga watts is 500 turbo fuel?

[true mulch]

500 m3
7.5 m3/min per generator
250 MW per generator
(500/7.5)*250 MW

[marble fractal]

16 gigs watts

[leaden ether]

If you have the recipies, turn the turbo fuel into rocket fuel and nearly double your output. only 4.17/min per generator.

Especially if you plan on going vertical as rocket fuel is a gas and does not need pumps to send it up 10 stories of generators

[latent prawn]

yeah, that's a phase 4 unlock

[leaden ether]

Eeep. I guess I was still on regular ol oil/fuel at that point 🙂

[true mulch]

turbofuel kinda sucks, you're usually better off just building more diluted fuel

there is 1 place on the map where it makes sense to make turbofuel and it's the lake forest, as all the resources for it are there

you have to import them everywhere else

[static gull]

I wish someone would join into my world for hellp

I do have a group but

[dense violet]

#1201555265942724758

[static gull]

No one has joined yet

which I made it last night

[sturdy mural]

guys anyone knows why does satisfactory use like 2% of my GPU (100% at lag spikes) but like 90% of my CPU's GPU

is windows once again guilty

[leaden ether]

It doesn;t use a lot of CPU at the best of times but maybe you have your graphics settings a little high and thats slowing you down.

[sturdy mural]

they're the lowest they can be

except for draw distance i think which is on medium

[forest bridge]

So I unlocked a resource pressurizer, not sure what it does tho

What's a resource well and how is that different from a node

[cyan garnet]

Wells can only be extracted with a pressurizer

Nitrogen can only be gotten from wells

There’s also oil and water wells but you can get those resources other ways obvs

[forest bridge]

Oh is it like those dark gray cracks in the ground

I found a water one but no Nitrogen or Oil 😔

[naive pendant]

Designed as a lategame way to unlock extra resources. They're pretty cool.

[rich ivy]

i love working on my phase 5 factory

because every now and then i can just hear a quantum encoder's arms arguing in the distance

lmao

[leaden ether]

So far I just ha a set of four mini factories in a group for phase 5 as I have not figured out yet how to combine everything into one complex.

[shrewd palm]

train everything over

[leaden ether]

But yeah the machinery is pretty wild 😄

[shrewd palm]

and the you have a belt/pipe nightmare

[timid rune]

finally fixed the HMF factory being under 100%

[forest bridge]

So one of my trains keeps saying "station unreachable" after docking and I'm not sure why

When I get into the train and just make it dock again, it fixes the issue and it goes right on its way

Having to manually fix it every time is getting annoying

the block signal in front of it is green so I'm not sure why it won't just go after offloading its stuff

[leaden turret]

known causes:

• train station wrong way around for autopilot
• track needs disconnecting and reconnecting for reasons

[forest bridge]

"for reasons" lol

probably that, I'll just unplug it and plug it back in

[dusky relic]

ADA and the alien guy are in love

and you cant convince me otherwise

[young crest]

Does anyone else build trains really high up in the sky? Just seems so much more practical

[mortal ginkgo]

Sure why not.

[leaden ether]

Yeah... I do like riding the trains on the ground and seeing the scenery go by but, building everything up high has major advantages.

[young crest]

I built them high but not that high so they still look okay

They almost get over the jungle pillars

[leaden ether]

My rocket fuel power plant has decided to behave it seems like. After fleshing out a complete redo of the rocket fuel creation part of it due to my initial attempt being a bit of a piping disaster... It knows.

[dusky relic]

I like to try to preserve nature, so I keep the trains going through the natural roads to make a nice aesthetic

[leaden ether]

"Repairs needed: BLack Powder" Uh huh... Looks like I'm blowing the hatch off of this one!

[marsh heath]

somehow even after having 3 100% satisfactory worlds i never realized that nuclear waste was an actual problem irl

[rich ivy]

the final space elevator parts have been automated

637 hours

i have beaten this game

[dusky relic]

Does the floor is lava achievement count ladders as floor?

[sullen gull]

🤷‍♂️ Never tried. I just assumed I got it from never leaving the hover 😏

[leaden ether]

Yeah once you have the hover pack and are working on a large installation it just happens automatically 😄 COurse hovering while you go get lunch works too

[hollow vector]

litterally average discord moderator when it comes to their chair

[nocturne crypt]

@reef cobalt sup man

[sullen gull]

If only there was a way to clock actually hours above ground? Or is there since they already know when you hit 30 😏

[sullen gull]

Not even sure what that means 🤷‍♂️

Oh, hovering over the ban? lol

[hollow vector]

no

[sullen gull]

<idiot here btw.

[hollow vector]

as in never leaves their chair

[sullen gull]

Ah .

Do you not like discord moderators?

[hollow vector]

most yes

[sullen gull]

I agree, there can be some who get a bit too over zealous.

What're you working on tonight @hollow vector ?

[hollow vector]

nothing satisfactory

but ubuntu vm

[sullen gull]

boo OohhHHhh

Ohh

[hollow vector]

i already slave enough pioneers making me

[sullen gull]

Wait ...

OK, fixed.

[honest flume]

you guys play in expiremental or stable

[brazen hinge]

I play 1.0

[leaden ether]

Stable till I at least finish the main story

[honest flume]

is it gonna be a smooth transition to 1.1 with our saves or is it gonna fuck it up?

[brazen hinge]

Idk but I do know that if you do upgrade your save make sure you make back ups

From what I’ve seen tho is that most people upgrade without any issues

[honest flume]

I'm feeling so indecisive to start a new game in 1.1 exp or 1.0

[frozen cloud]

playing without priority mergers and auto connect must feel like living in the stone age

[sullen gull]

Programmables though? 🤔 😏

[cyan garnet]

Experimental is pretty stable in my experience, but that’s single player. People on multiplayer and dedicated servers are not having as good of an experience right now

But yes the 1.1 QOL stuff is incredibly good

[boreal musk]

auto connect, straight pipe, and curved belt

those 3 are really good

[sullen gull]

Heh, I have been super reluctant to upgrade mine lol. Though, I only just now thought of spinning another VM to run the 1.1 ....... 🤦‍♂️

[sullen gull]

I have been loving curved anything, and the nudge changes. Almost like a whole new game ... without mods 😏

[cyan garnet]

Yep, all of this plus everything related to rail construction, native vertical nudge

[rich ivy]

i am far from done though

i still have to do ficsonium, and then finish all my builds asthetically

after that, im DONE

[cyan garnet]

Time for a 100 HMF/min factory?

[rich ivy]

i am NEVER playing this fucking game again until that DLC comes out

this game is more of a commitment than a marriage

after this im going to VERY happily enjoy my doom dark ages and switch 2 knowing that i dont have to grind this game anymore

[cyan garnet]

I finished clearing the map of the remaining drives and sloops today and now I’m considering setting up one or two APAs and feeding them with APMs as that’s one item in the game I’ve never automated

Not that I need the power, I have like 150 GW of headroom or something

[rich ivy]

i already made one fully powered augmenter

thats enough for me

honestly my two (soon to be 3) nuclear plants were my favorite builds ive made, i think i have a new favorite now though

im SO proud of this red forest megafactory i made

i somehow did all the phase 5 stuff while keeping most of the forest's natural paths in place so you can actually navigate

[cyan garnet]

Red forest is so pretty

[rich ivy]

it is

too bad its so dangerous

[cyan garnet]

Lot of great biomes on the map

[rich ivy]

i also tried to keep as many trees and bamboo shoots up as i could

i got a mod that lets me place them back down as buildings so once im done with all the building asthetics ima go back in and dot in some trees where theres a lot of empty space

[cyan garnet]

I love the aesthetics of building around nature or including trees and rivers inside buildings. Kudos to the folks who have the vision and skill to execute on builds like that

[boreal musk]

time to build one in titan forest

[elfin berry]

What are the locations for the three hardest to get blue, yellow and purple slugs?

[sullen gull]

They're all over. Go exploring 🙂

[rich ivy]

theyre everywhere but a rule of thumb is that the yellow and purple ones are generally in more precarious locations

on cliffs or near alpha creatures and whatnot

[sullen gull]

And a bit of PSA: Holding C while approaching the Hatchers will keep em closed 🙂

[olive condor]

Good morning Pioneers. 👋

[elfin berry]

I'm trying to do a playthrough without collecting slugs. I've completed Tier 9 and am working on Phase 5. I'd like to open the slug research tree. I'd like to get the least number of slugs, but I want them to be the hardest ones to get.

[leaden ether]

-.- Just found a sloop hiding in the middle of a uranium node.

[lament carbon]

I do the exact opposite i just want parking (dont know if parking exist in english

[cyan garnet]

Parking lot. Cement as far as the eye can see

[quick sky]

Holy moly the red jungle gives a crap ton of biomass

I'm gonna deforest the whole thing and turn it into mtn dew

[boreal musk]

have you ever heard of

northern forest

this place gives ton shit of biomass enough to fuel your 7th generation

[rough crypt]

Odd request but can someone reply to me? Trying to test sonething

[rich ivy]

so now that i have automated the final space elevator parts

should i redeem my coupons now
i got 1644 saved up in the sink

i have redeemed them

it lowkey kinda hurt to do

[olive condor]

Geez, I am dumb. I wonder why I have not enough sulfuric acid in my blenders despite the refineries producing enough, 8 of them 100 m³ each. 🤦

I need a bigger pipeline. 😦

[rich ivy]

project assembly is done

i am free

[olive condor]

Congratulations. 🎉

[hollow hollow]

150 hr gamer, havent playerd in some time but tryna get back into it. game keeps crashing off load, already validated files, any idea??

[old yarrow]

gang i need some help

my smartass decided to fill machines from the bottom

[honest flume]

drivers?

[old yarrow]

now my pipes arent flowing

[olive condor]

@old yarrow Pumps are working?

[old yarrow]

i made a water tower so it should work, ill try pumps rn

nvm they worked thx

[olive condor]

@old yarrow You have to at least pump the water up into the tower, it doesn't go there by itself. 😄

Has anyone of ever tried to build a nuclear power plant which uses all uranium on the map?

If my calculations are correct, then one need 8750 sulfuric acid to process the given 2100 uranium. I'm not sure if there is enough sulfur on the map for this. So I think for such a project the alternate recipe Infused Uranium Cell is only feasable.

[reef basin]

Water towers are meh

[junior crescent]

pretty sure kibitz did but it aint complete

[reef basin]

Tons of people did

[junior crescent]

like its all the way till fisconium

hes just on the pressure conversion cubes part for plutonium

[elder apex]

screw nuclear power, I built a plant that uses all the uranium for nuclear nobelisks. Bring on the invaders!

[toxic plank]

damn how we supposed to just chill in a group and talk to each other with no vc 😦

[olive condor]

vc?

[green fiber]

You make a private vc with your friends instead

Public VCs on here probably will not ever be a thing again

[olive condor]

Sorry, what does VC stand for?

[junior crescent]

voice chat

[crystal lodge]

Gooood morning!

[old yarrow]

yea i did, I took the wrong pipe turns out, so i was getting 300/min instead of 600

[olive condor]

Good morning.

[olive condor]

Happens to the best of us. 😄

[dusky relic]

How do you guys deal with 1 meter gaps and stairs

[stiff ivy]

omg this game is taking forever for me, my patience is running out, i may have to spoil it in youtube

or maybe i just make copy and paste box factories repetatively

[dusky relic]

What tier are you>

[green fiber]

This game is not good for impatient people lol

[stiff ivy]

Only up to fuel power 😂

[stiff ivy]

Haha yeah, my patience depends on what it is 😂

[prisma thicket]

You also don't have to enclose your factories or do any decoration, or you can do that while you're waiting for items to produce.

[green fiber]

If you are expecting the game to get easier or give you super powerful tools later on; don't get your hopes up

[stiff ivy]

Yeah i think that’s what burnt me out. Trying to make it look too good

[prisma thicket]

All my factories are just a bunch of machines on a concrete slab lol

[stiff ivy]

Yeah I think ill just do that next time 😂 I love making the factories with amazing architecture up until a point haha

[prisma thicket]

If I have a belt of an item I can't easily divide up that needs to go to 2 separate stages of production, is it better to use a smart manifold on the earlier stage and then just overflow the rest to the later stage of production? Or should I try to divide it up somehow?

[green fiber]

Normal / smart splitters can make work of it. normal splitter overflow too when one side has too much material

[viral olive]

do you guys overclock all your miners

[green fiber]

Depends

if i need the material and am too lazy to find a new node

[prisma thicket]

I set minder clock speeds based on what I need for a given project.

[olive condor]

Sounds like an incident happened. What was the issue?

[green fiber]

I do not know

All i know is that one reason is that they cant be moderated easily

[prisma thicket]

People will ruin anything given the chance and the wrong mind state.

[timid rune]

I basically overclock most if not all miners

power is basically free late game

[quick sky]

I like to put the tall lights all over my base to make it look like a prison. Just brings out a brutalist industrial feel. Like in the engineers' path of Frostpunk's Last Autumn DLC if you've seen it

[olive condor]

Same here. Because Ficsit does not waste. 😁

[timid rune]

and I definitely overclocked the heck of all my miners for a 67.5/min HMF factory

[old yarrow]

anyone got like a design for water extractor row things, whenver i do it it ends up being spaghetti mess

[quick sky]

Even with a huge amount of converters, particle accels, and encoders?

[quick sky]

I focus on just getting the pipes as straight as possible and then put the extractors wherever it seems the water makes room for them

[reef basin]

VCs are impossible to moderate without 24/7 recording which obviously is a very bad idea

[timid rune]

that being said, I did started modding after beating phase 5

[old yarrow]

aight thanks

[timid rune]

because I like my load balancers

[quick sky]

Also if you have only a few pipes through a mostly uninhabited terrain it looks pretty ok

[timid rune]

and small train stations

[quick sky]

You can also make use of packagers with a little plastic to replace pipes with conveyors if you want

I hear that's also a way to boost things like fuel income with alt recipes

[timid rune]

yeah diluted fuel is the way to go

[dusky relic]

How do you guys deal with 1 meter gaps with stairs

[dense violet]

can always clip it

[worn garden]

anyone wanna see how ass my builds are?

[paper condor]

wieso geht das spiel nicht auf Deutsch?

[rich ivy]

man

now that ive beaten this game

it feels weird

cant wait for the inevitable dlc, praying its story focused and expands on the aliens a bit more (im coping so hard)

[reef basin]

#rules english only server

[hollow pelican]

love the fact that every time i close the game it crashes
i mean it works but why

[worn garden]

Guess who decided to finally explore the map guys.... it's me

Guess who shat their pants guys.... that's right... it's me again

I thought the spiders were fast and scary

Guess who found adult version of those fuckers

Straight up heart attack material

That thing chased me down for like solid 5 mins

it was FAST.

i had a electic saber with me and fought back after realising it ain't leaving me alone and it almost killed me like 5 times but i killed it finally

And then i wen't to the crash sight it was guarding only to find out there were 2 more of those thangs

LIKE BRO wtf are they even guarding in the crash site????

3 GIANT SPIDERS ???? it better be a really good recipe.... something like Iron Ore to some end game material or something

and i also found other crazy creatures... like radiation rhinos, bigger flower blossom, etc..

this game has soo much more than i initially thought 😭

[grizzled lotus]

How do I add notes to the side without adding buildings to the to-do list?

[storm epoch]

Is it OK to have a lot of conveyor spaghetti in my first world, I started it a while ago and took a big break but I made a few mistakes so now I have a lot of spaghetti wire. Should I just keep going and try avoid my mistakes when I start a new playthrough??

[boreal musk]

just hover your mouse to right, when the side is darker you can click it

[worn garden]

NO!!! how dare you to make mistakes and be INEFFICIENT and IMPERFECT you are a waste of FICSIT property

[storm epoch]

Oh :(

[worn garden]

like bro, just play the game as you like, if you don't like spaggeti, change it, if its working and getting the job done.. then keep it as it is lol

[storm epoch]

Okie :)

[worn garden]

:3

[worn garden]

also be careful while exploring the map 😭 don't ask me how i know

[real wolf]

i have started a forever world which means i have to play on it forever and i cant make a new world until this world cant be loaded anymore

[storm epoch]

For the sake of everyone's sanity I will try to not create automated nightmares of conveyors

[sturdy mural]

guys any tip for rails?

is there like a quick guide on what curves are the best, and stuff

[boreal musk]

just search in youtube about quick train guides

[sturdy mural]

fair, thanks

[grizzled lotus]

thank you

[covert talon]

how do you guys go forth to make conveyors from miners to the factory look good?

[sturdy mural]

thats freaking mean

[grizzled lotus]

what's the difference between two default constructors and one constructor with 2 power shards?

[worn garden]

i mean...

[boreal musk]

buildings with power shard use 33% more power

[torn forge]

Anyone wanna help me fix my power in the evening?

Or help.

[real wolf]

i think i saw somewhere to use painted beams and then place the tracks on them for good results

i have been playing minecraft for 2 weeks so im so used to minecraft controls

@potent berry are you making a plane?

[potent berry]

Yea, it is crazy, everything is about to take off

[quick sky]

Automating rifle ammo and nobelisks is such a huge hassle without drones. I'll just hand craft em whenever I need

[real wolf]

ada is making you make a plane so you can fly to space ig

[potent berry]

or... She wants me to make the Trains faster

[rugged abyss]

can a ladder go through a conveyer lift floor hole?

[chrome cloud]

i feel like i made a mistake turning off monster aggro

the description of the setting said they will defend if attacked but they absolutely do not

[chrome cloud]

you won't be able to climb through it

[coarse geode]

what alternatives are there to trains?

[flat orchid]

is there a way to delete a train that got into deep water by accident?

[boreal musk]

is it derailed? then just hover to the rail to fix it

[boreal musk]

drones, trucks and belts/pipe highway if you wish

[potent berry]

There are also your legs

[boreal musk]

might as well use other pioneers as labor

[coarse geode]

are drones good?

[fresh wharf]

Hey, when I scan quartz and go to where it indicates, it's always underground but I can't find a cave entrance? Is this normal?

[boreal musk]

some cave entrance are usually far from node locations

[fresh wharf]

Ah alright

[boreal musk]

go to creative world and test drones, see if it fits your taste or not

[fresh wharf]

I found some geysers too, are they useful for tier 5&6?

[sturdy mural]

what the hell

do alpha creatures respawn after 20 seconds of being killed for you guys too??

[fresh wharf]

Thats what the big dudes are?
Nah they stay dead forever for me

[dense violet]

Learning trains instead of claiming they are bugged

[sturdy mural]

YEAH NO

[fresh wharf]

Walking

[sturdy mural]

I JUST TURNED AROUND FOR HALF A SECOND

and an alpha spitter just respawned

[fresh wharf]

Just kill it it's free protein so free inhalers

[sturdy mural]

I CANNOT

[upbeat jacinth]

The month where all games have mob spawning issues

[fresh wharf]

Noob

[sturdy mural]

fuck off

i have to fight pretty much 4 alpha throwing hogs and 2 spitters
on 3 bars of hp

[fresh wharf]

It's okay just dodge

[sturdy mural]

okay no you're just ragebaiting

[worn garden]

guys

i died for the first time in game

[sturdy mural]

(also hello Mr Tunnel Rat)

[zenith pecan]

You can also use foundations to fight with or a blueprint combat shed like shown here #satisfactory-experimental message , though the conveyor holes got borked in 1.1,

'morning!

[sturdy mural]

i just made a wall out of the equipment workshop

THE SPITTER RESPAWNED AGAIN

[zenith pecan]

I do need a better design if the 1.1 changes stick alas, those holes suddenly became solid 🤦‍♂️ #satisfactory-experimental message

[sturdy mural]

thats it i'm speedrunning into nuclear so i get nukes

[upbeat jacinth]

A glass in front of equipment workshop and use the backdoor as hit window

[dense violet]

Have a little fort you can Insta build in the wild to fight from

[zenith pecan]

My combat shed blueprint 😛 , though I could do with reimagining it due to 1.1 changes making conveyor holes solid instead of being holes.

[fresh wharf]

Maybe

Have you made rebar guns yet?

[dense violet]

Could just have a 1m wall gap horizontal you shoot from all around

[zenith pecan]

I have to mess with it, I tried something like that and stingers jumped inside, so it's going to be a nudgefest until I perfect it.

[fresh wharf]

Just make it elevated or something

[sturdy mural]

is 10 nukes on a alpha spitter enough

[fresh wharf]

I don't know just use a rebar gun it takes like 6 shots and dies

[zenith pecan]

That could work, provided I build something decent to allow me to shoot downward, it is something I have considered with ladder access,

[cyan garnet]

Drones are good
Trains are good
Trucks are good
They fill different logistics niches

[zenith pecan]

Why stop at ten #screenshots message

[fresh wharf]

Isn't there a donut type platform with a hole in the middle?

[real wolf]

waiting 20 minutes to get to 1.1 just to remove a crashsite

[jaunty jewel]

rifle with basic ammo is very effective on spitters but especially hatchers, (explosive) rebar seems to be better for stingers and nobelisks for hogs

from my experience*
although nuke nobelisks kinda just win anyways

[sturdy mural]

teach me your ways
how do you build like that

[zenith pecan]

You referring to the power station in the background or how I put stuff under the map?

[sturdy mural]

power station i guess, the big cool buildings

[real wolf]

i cut onions and i just put my finger in my eye, IM SUFFERING

[sturdy mural]

why are you cutting onions

[fresh wharf]

Hey, does sulfur have a use other than explosives? This decides whether or not I make a 2K meters long conveyor belt

[sturdy mural]

do it

[real wolf]

my family is making lasagne

[fresh wharf]

Why

[jaunty jewel]

nuclear power, rocket fuel turbofiel

[fresh wharf]

Another day another spaghetti

[zenith pecan]

Not quickly essentially, the power station is a pretty conventional thing, generators on sixteen floors, with glass walls, since its rocket fuel, the pipes don't need pimps on them because gasses don't care about head lift, which simplified it.

[sturdy mural]

#screenshots message i need help ong

[real wolf]

what can you put on your head?
