satisfactory

[daring reef]

only uses 450 oil

[hard ivy]

I haven't used either alloy in literal years
I find them useless

[placid stirrup]

I'm a fan of them in the dune desert

[daring reef]

Pure recipes are really good if u have water and an ore nearby

u just use water and u get extra ore

[white dawn]

Yeah, alloys are pretty great if you don't happen to be near water

Especially for factories which need both copper+iron products

[placid stirrup]

dune desert
Yep

[hard ivy]

If a factory location is not near water, it's not a good location 🤷‍♂️

[white dawn]

(I mean, I :heart: me some Pure recipes too, but I use 'em both situationally)

[placid stirrup]

Bad take imo

[daring reef]

35 ore per minute to 65 ore per minute for just 20 water per minute

[daring reef]

i mean the game is made to make mini factories everywhere imo

i dont really have a central factory

[placid stirrup]

Is that for copper? Others have different ratios

[white dawn]

I've found I'm rarely in a situation where I need Pure recipes to make what I need

[daring reef]

thats iron

[white dawn]

And this way I get to integrate factories into interesting geography. :)

[daring reef]

i love how we forget what the name of the game means

[hard ivy]

And every single one of my factories past tier 5 is near water

[daring reef]

satisfactory means its not the best not the most efficient but it is acceptable

[white dawn]

Heh, I wouldn't like feeling like I must build near water

Though resource wells give you some more options, of course

[daring reef]

u dont have to u just like to

[white dawn]

I admit I certainly have some factories which I specifically want near water, just to take advantage of Pures or the like. But definitely not a requirement for me, at any stage of the game

[wicked nacelle]

Nowhere in the game is that far from deep water. Especially with auto connect blueprints.

[white dawn]

(This is, of course, made easier by generally doing the Independancy thing, and also enjoying doing "sub-factories" for various components. My individual factory sizes can be pretty modest)

[topaz shale]

Without any alts, should I just try to b-line to turbo fuel the moment I can actually make it, for power? I know there is a slightly better recipe for it.

[daring reef]

i hate liquids in this game

[placid stirrup]

I'd b-line if I said rushing to turbo is a bad idea

[wicked nacelle]

Packaging makes them much easier to deal with Flow rates out of unpackagers seem to be rock solid for me. Sort of like out of water extractors

Even just to move them around in a location lets you use things like smart splitters

[daring reef]

water extractors sometimes work flawlessly then sometimes they fucking such

also i dont wanna packege and unpackage that seems even more like hell on earth

[wicked nacelle]

At least it’s easily predictable. But I guess there’s no perfect answer

[hard ivy]

turbofuel without alts is nearly 2x worse than fuel with alts. and that's just oil. fuel with alts uses only water on top of oil, turbo uses coal and sulfur

[daring reef]

i think i have a better idea

ill just destroy all power poles

then rebuild when it fills fully

[hard ivy]

or just wait? it'll fill by itself eventually

[wicked nacelle]

you want the machines to fill too. They don’t fill when unpowered. Just slow a few way down

[hard ivy]

fuel gens fill when disconnected iirc, but also... why?

[wicked nacelle]

Solids don’t for sure. I didn’t think liquids did either

[hard ivy]

production machines don't fill when unpowered, fluid or liquid

but I'm not sure if that applies to gens

[topaz shale]

I think my first turbo fuel plant used coal and sulfur and can attest, it sucked.

I'll start planning the alts I'll need tonight and try to get to jetpacks asap and start exploring those alts.

[daring reef]

i cannot emphasize enough how much prefilling helps in power and liquids

[hard ivy]

I never do it and i never have issues

prefilling is a hoax

[daring reef]

lucky

if i dont do it everything just breaks

[wicked nacelle]

Systems that require prefilling are annoying because if production is interrupted you have to do it again.

And you have to remember where

[stray loom]

I do prefilled modular blueprints for the recycled rubber/plastic loop but that's only so I don't have to bring in the seed material to get it running

[wicked nacelle]

My rocket fuel lines used to be super finicky until I started packaging it and u packaging it right before the manifold of burners. Now it’s completely reliable

[wicked nacelle]

The seed material is the waste resin

You turn that into rubber and feed it to the plastic

[daring reef]

#screenshots message
TIME TO CONNECT

[hard ivy]

ah, yes, the good ol' "did you try turning it off and on again?" but it's "did you try to package and unpackage it?"

[wicked nacelle]

Well I ship it around packaged too which is much easier to manage than pipes.

Two belts vs four pipes

[stray loom]

Sure but I'm talking 6 extra rubber or plastic per print, not a stack. Just enough to run a single recipe once fuel comes in and then it will run forever. Also makes it dead simple since I can do whatever I want with the resin byproduct and not have to feel it into the same factory line

[daring reef]

why the fuck is 500 of my MW gone

1 machine was not taking in fuel

[wicked nacelle]

But you’re going to be making rubber and plastic. Just siphon it and you get whatever number you want not just the waste resin number

[daring reef]

i tried to fix it now 2 wont take in fuel

[topaz shale]

How do you even prefill in order to blueprint it like that? Just using the unpackager and have it filled that way?

[daring reef]

omg the missing 500 MW is like an itch in my brain that i cant scratch

ITS NOW A MISSING GW

what the fuck man

[placid stirrup]

I ate it

[topaz shale]

I would love a mod that can overlay the fill of a pipe over it as a toggle

[daring reef]

stop eating my power pls

[stray loom]

There is no packager involved, just 3 refineries. 2 set to the desired output and one set to the opposite that feeds the primary with the required material. Fuel gets piped in from nearby. You can place the items in the machine in the blueprint designer and it will save them

[daring reef]

can u guys stop eating my power 1 by 1 machines are going offline

my oil refining has a sea of yellow lights

alright its fixing itself nice

[topaz shale]

@daring reef that literally sounded like a nightmare situation.

[daring reef]

it is going to fix itself im sure

[topaz shale]

Just one machine after the other turning off one by one

[daring reef]

nope more machines are turning off

1 by 1 my entire work just

poof

[hard ivy]

give it time to settle

if it fixes itself, good

but you can't troubleshoot while it's unstable

[topaz shale]

Fluids in this game give me nightmares. I might just opt to only have machines hooked up to the pipes that are using 100% of the fluid. Will build extra buildings if I have to.

[daring reef]

yeah only prob is when u have a sea of yellow lights in fluid production for no reason

i double checked the ratios it should be fine

ok the yellow lights in fluid production are fine

now the fuel should just fix itself

[unkempt blade]

I do a lot of MP so I like to have a pretty large amount of power storage for situations like these

would rather overbuild power storage than have to debug power after it crashes

[placid stirrup]

Sorry, needed dessert

[unkempt blade]

an hour~ of buffer gives me enough time to either figure it out or load a previous save if I'm feeling lazy 😆

[daring reef]

yesterday was national lazy day not today srry

[topaz shale]

Factorio is easier to deal with fluids but things can get complicated there.

[placid stirrup]

I procrastinated that yesterday so it's today for me

[unkempt blade]

yeah but I was too busy playing video games instead of celebrating like I was supposed to so it rolled over

[daring reef]

best joke ive ever heard in my life

just why am i doing this

like i could leave this be

[placid stirrup]

Nutt

[daring reef]

i dont need 15 GW

ok i hope it just fixes it self

ill check in an hour

[lyric vortex]

when do you unlock hard drive in the awesome shop

[hard ivy]

tier 8 - particle enrichment

[lyric vortex]

thanks man

[hard ivy]

or just collect them, there's more than enough

they cost 100 coupons to buy

[lyric vortex]

ik me and my friend were talking about them and wondering about them.

thanks

[ashen trail]

are there floor outlets like the wall outlets?

[wicked nacelle]

unfortunately no BUT you can make them by putting down a horizontal beam, putting it on that, then deleting the beam and replacing it with a foundation

you can make a blueprint of this, but it won't be flat with other foundations -- but you can use vertical nudge on the BP

[placid stirrup]

I'd actually never thought to do that, what an awesome idea

[wicked nacelle]

also it might clip a little bit but it still looks normal from a distance

[daring reef]

can i ride the drone

[wicked nacelle]

the bottom of a through-wall power connector clips https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/553550313533997057/1404571162817728623/image.png?ex=689bac54&is=689a5ad4&hm=a0e0d02589dfecfceb73762958acc03b870852aefcef650baab637e7fd494cea&

[wicked nacelle]

if you're good enough to

[daring reef]

it just clipped under the port then dissapeared into the horizon

I CAN RACE IT

[wicked nacelle]

If you dont' want it to clip you can 'waste" a connection and put two not-through-wall wall power connectors and just connect them by hand

[daring reef]

oh it was way faster

[wicked nacelle]

no clipping https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/553550313533997057/1404571587818160229/image.png?ex=689bacba&is=689a5b3a&hm=57dc4f96dac46b406199ca5d4aa397477df5688e4b0877ac5772e48a4ab9fa6c&

[hard ivy]

drones fly at 30-45 m/s iirc

[wicked nacelle]

!wikisearch drone

[daring reef]

yeah it was wayyy faster than me

[wicked nacelle]

25-45

[viscid bobcat]

someone help, the conveyor belt wont clip to the conveyor lift

i tried so many times

i cant post images here

[stray loom]

Draw a beam on the floor and stick a wall outlet on top of the beam. For bonus points put the outlet on the end of the beam and put a beam connector in the same spot then delete the beam and it will look like the beam connector is supporting the outlet

[viscid bobcat]

it never clips to the bottom, it always snaps to the top of the lift

[daring reef]

do i have to supply fuel to both ports

[hard ivy]

one end is enough, unless you're going really far and use a shit fuel

[stray loom]

As long as it can make a round trip only one is enough

[daring reef]

im using packed fuel and it is really far

halfway across the map

[hard ivy]

I would suggest packaged rocket, packaged ionized or plutonium rods

because packaged fuel is probably the only one that can't go across the map with only one refuel

RF lasts nearly 10x longer

[daring reef]

i dont have any of those

[hard ivy]

test it. maybe it'll be enough

[daring reef]

how do i make rocket fuel lol

[hard ivy]

mam sulfur tree

then fuel or turbofuel, nitrogen and some other stuff

[azure linden]

@hard ivy 3 hours in, it's still not done : ( but i only have the beam assemblers and manufacturers left

my brain hurts tbh

[daring reef]

can i just unlock it from the hub

[azure linden]

no, it's in the MAM

[hard ivy]

it's a mam unlock???

[urban ember]

i have decided to throw my friend a challenge

[daring reef]

that sucks

[azure linden]

???

[hard ivy]

why would you be able to unlock something from the MAM in the HUB

[daring reef]

i dont have sulfur

[azure linden]

then go gather some

lmao

[daring reef]

why would i ever have the raw recource

[urban ember]

making me a self-sufficient factory that will make me 30 alien matrixes per minute

[hard ivy]

I built 25. wasn't that bad

[urban ember]

oh dayum

[azure linden]

(almost) every first scan in the MAM starts with raw resource

[urban ember]

the thing is, the save i want him to build in is a logistical dumpster fire

the results will be interesting

[daring reef]

its fine i got some

now it wants me to get coal

why would i have coal

ok now i need SULFUR AND COAL

this game is getting annoying

actually my drones are working fine

idk why im doing this

[hard ivy]

it's always worth it to unlock all MAM nodes you can

being in T7 without touching the sulfur tree at all is wild

do you even have blade runners?

[daring reef]

yeah

blade runners are life changing

i also have zipline

[barren lily]

I DID IT I F######G DID IT FINALY FIXED MY RAFINERY

[daring reef]

and kabooms

only weapon ill ever need

[restive summit]

how do i tame a lizzard doggo with paleberries

[barren lily]

Take your blade runners off and drop barries on ground

He will just come to you and eat berries

[daring reef]

why cant drones use power like trains

why do they have to use fuel

[wicked nacelle]

There's no unlimited length wireless power in any other part of the game

[hard ivy]

I wish batteries were rechargeable

and usable in the hoverpack

[wicked nacelle]

though how they can use either combustion fuel or batteries is weird

[slender quest]

Multi-fuel engines, probably, with electric motor for double.

[wicked nacelle]

well, graphically it's dumb, too

[daring reef]

i just love how a single cable can handle 23 GW

[wicked nacelle]

when they were battery-only they still had jet engines that had afterburners

[wicked nacelle]

13TW

and at voltages that are usable by normal equipment

[hard ivy]

it can handle way more than that

[daring reef]

im almost halfway to my entire countries power production

thats fun isnt it

[wicked nacelle]

I mean techncially it's nearly infinite power -- basically only limited by the number of buildings you can make

[daring reef]

wdym

power is limited no

[wicked nacelle]

not instantantaneous power, no

[hard ivy]

not momentary power

[daring reef]

oh u mean batteries

[wicked nacelle]

one power storage machine can power every single machine you can build... for a moment

[pulsar violet]

The big bean creature thingy is supposed to move when i hit it, right?
Because its currently stuck in a lake that I want to cover with foundations, but it wont move...

[wicked nacelle]

but no you can generate any amount of power you want for a period of time

[hard ivy]

prefill 1000s of nuke plants and just supply them with water at the same time

[wicked nacelle]

or just connect one power line

which I guess would also do that...

[hard ivy]

I guess you'd have to consume the power too to actually transfer it through a cable

thankfully packager loops are not limited by the world's resource limits lmao

[wicked nacelle]

nor are power storages

and you could always just store raw materials like you store power production stuff

but the highest instantaneous power would be one power storage and the whole rest of the world filled with whatever the most volume-dense power consumption stuff is

SWIM get on that 🙂

[hard ivy]

funnily enough, those might be hypertube entrances. 10 MW and 2x1x2 m according to the wiki

[wicked nacelle]

do you know the height of the world above ground on average? 48 sq km but how high is it?

I can go find out ... semi quick

[hard ivy]

~2200m iirc

border to border

[daring reef]

ok sulfur is 600m away from my coal

that isnt too bad

[wicked nacelle]

so that's 96,000,000,000 cubic meters -- 24 billion hypertube entrances so 240 billion MW. is a lot

too bad you can't overclock them

240,000 TW

through a tier 1 power pole connection

[hard ivy]

I got 264 PW, actually

[prime jasper]

How does the rescan work with the hard disk scanner?

Is it one rescan per disk?

[wicked nacelle]

I'm happy with my rough estimate, but I'm sure yours is more accuate

[hard ivy]

turns out, the wiki has a theoretical build volume

[daring reef]

yk i heard once that satisfactory devs removed things from manual crafting to make u automate them

[hard ivy]

I'm assuming it's correct

[wicked nacelle]

you're guaranteed to get different ones than you had and different than any other recipes sitting on other scanned hard drives in your library. Generally best to just let the hard drive sit if it doesn't have recipes you want so it blocks them for future scans

[daring reef]

and it just worked i automated compact coal cause i was lazy to just craft

[unkempt blade]

my map has like almost a thousand hypertube entrances at this point I think

[wicked nacelle]

elevator parts

[daring reef]

yeah hell nah im not automating them ever

[hard ivy]

Ironically, I make them as manually as possible

and I don't use the crafting bench at all past tier 2

though if I could handcraft project parts, I still wouldn't

handfeeding machines takes way less time than the crafting itself

[daring reef]

yeah ikr

i just go to machines handcraft everything

but i dont go to the next tier unless everything i can automate except elevator parts is automated

[wicked nacelle]

I don't either but I will hand craft stuff to do an unlock -- even later into the game

[hard ivy]

nah, I handfeed machines for that too

[wicked nacelle]

elevator parts are for sloops 🙂

[topaz shale]

This is the way.

[wicked nacelle]

hand crafting vs machine times vary drastically -- sometimes hand crafting is insanely slow, sometimes much faster

[daring reef]

i just unlocked turbo fuel

[hard ivy]

there's literally a handcrafting multiplier for each recipe lol

[wicked nacelle]

great for jetpack climb rate and burning

[daring reef]

i dont wanna place down another 60 fuel burners

[unkempt blade]

I automate everything then I go build some gratuitous trains or skyroads or whatever fun project is up next

[daring reef]

pls no

[topaz shale]

I swear it feels slow sometimes lol

[daring reef]

also do i use drones to transfer fuel

so i use fuel on drones so they trasnfer fuel

i love when things make no sense like that

[wicked nacelle]

absolutely. If you have a large drone fleet somewhere you have one drone that just fuels the other drones (rocket fuel FTW)

Takes power to make power

[daring reef]

i will how to automate some rocket fuel

i dont think i need alot

[wicked nacelle]

drones don't fly unless they are empty so they mostly don't burn fuel (but it still takes 100MW (ammortized) to power the port)

[wraith finch]

I just finished a fast reinforced plate factory, generally how much per minute will I need late game

[wicked nacelle]

You also need it to make ionized fuel so it's completely worth automating

[wicked nacelle]

all of them. Make a modular blueprint that takes in iron ingots and outputs reinforced plate so you can just put down as many as you want

[unkempt blade]

Usually I have one fuel supplier drone port with many fuel consumer ports getting stuff from it. Then I have 1:1 routes for actual non-fuel stuff with one of those ports being paired with a fuel consumer port

[hard ivy]

depends for what? in general or for building?

[wicked nacelle]

also make a blueprint that takes in iron ingots and outputs frames

[wraith finch]

To get me to finish the space elevator. I’m at tier 4 right now

[daring reef]

understanding 0

[daring reef]

alot

[topaz shale]

I think I'll be using drones first before trains. Just easier to set up even though lower throughput.

[wicked nacelle]

This is the way, for sure

[daring reef]

but dont worry abt it just make enough to supply ur inventory needs

[topaz shale]

Drones are in phase 3, right?

[daring reef]

and anything else will be automated as u need it

[hard ivy]

I used 12000 total for building

fewer than I expected tbh

[wicked nacelle]

You have a drone port with no drone that just gets filled up with packaged rocket fuel. Then at each place where you have drones, you make one drone whose only job is to go to that supply drone port and fill up with rocket fuel and bring it back. Then that fuels both itself and the other drones where it is

[wraith finch]

I spent a LONG time making a 60/min factory for them, will this be good enough

[wicked nacelle]

depends how far you want to go into the game. You can beat it with 1/hr. but I probably make 1000/m

[daring reef]

its more than enough lmao

[slow kindle]

I have no point to use a minermk3 250% with mk5 belts right?

[hard ivy]

depends on node purity

[wicked nacelle]

depends on the quality of the node.

[slow kindle]

pure

[daring reef]

look dont overwhelm him now

[wraith finch]

Perfect, I don’t have enough power for more lol

[hard ivy]

mk5 can only pull out 780, so yeah, no reason to OC to 1200

[daring reef]

his 60/m is way more than enough for now

[wicked nacelle]

reinforced plate and frames are AMAZING for blueprints

[slow kindle]

👍 ty

[wicked nacelle]

and another blueprint for refineries for pure iron ingots

60 hours in feeling strong

phase 4 is super annoying but its fine im taking my sweet time

Fun story of the day... My friend is working on revemping the steel factory while I work on the copper factory . At one point I am one power shard short so I ask my friend to give me one extra with this line
Me: "Hey I need on Power shard, just put it in me storage"
Friend: "Alright"
Friend put it in the personal storage at the HUB
Me: Is it in the me storage?
Friend: Yea
Me: I couldn't find it
Friend: Yea I put it in the chest
Me: Chest, what chest? you just dump it from the inventory
Firend: Well yea I put if from my inventory , to the chest !
Me: wait what chest
Friend: Do you mean the ** dimensional storage
Me: Yea...

Is copper powder ever useful outisde of nuclear pasta or did I just make a 130/m copper powder farm

Yes it does but the pipes are emplty even before they reach upwards pump. I created a thread as advised, with video attached if you're interested

[ionic forge]

is hydro power a thing

or is it just biomass -> coal -> nuclear

[magic current]

is there any easy way to get my stuff out of the pit in the first map, or atleast kill the stupid spider

would send a ss but cant

[hard ivy]

There's also fuel in the middle. And geothermal. But no hydro per se

[fast roost]

why cant i see my blueprints tab

shits just not here

[fast roost]

fuel power

with gasoline

[hard ivy]

This game has a tutorial

Onboarding

Did you select the box to skip it?

[fast roost]

its the skip onboarding you probably clicked

place the pole with 1 and connect it with 2

[hard ivy]

With a powerline

[fast roost]

hit Q to open the building tab > power subtab > power line buildable

[red sun]

we all start somewhere

[bronze pawn]

I came to understanding that nuclear is overrated. 1 NPP gives 750MJ, and an overclocked fuel generator gives 625MJ. A bit less, but you don't have to deal with radiation and waste management.

[fast roost]

most people take nuclear as a challenge that they want to complete

and its also by far the hardest challenge in this game

[bronze pawn]

Maybe, it is very challenging, but the reward feels too small.

[hard ivy]

Have you been doing meth instead of math?

[fast roost]

i mean if you make 50.2 uranium rods/min then you basically have infinite power

wait what nuclear doesnt make 750 MJ lol

[bronze pawn]

It doesn't? Wait let me check

[fast roost]

isnt it mw

its 750,000 MJ lol

[hard ivy]

It's neither 750, nor is it MJ.
It's 2500 MW. At least at 100% speed

[fast roost]

bruh you cant embed

[placid stirrup]

2500MJ/s

[placid stirrup]

Prevents media spam, you can share media in other channels

[fast roost]

go to #screenshots

[bronze pawn]

Oh, I was looking at the uranium rod instead of NPP my bad

[fast roost]

oh thats not what that channel is for

[hard ivy]

That's still not 750 MJ

It's 1000 times more

[bronze pawn]

Then it should be 750 GJ.

Ok, 2.5GWt is a substantial upgrade from 625MWt, maybe nuclear is not so overrated after all

[lofty hazel]

why i can't post at anywhere

even with tags

[placid stirrup]

W == J/s, folks

[quiet gust]

is GJ a thing

[quiet gust]

whats the t for

[hard ivy]

I mean if you're overclocking one, why not the other? A NPP at 250% is 6.25 GW

[placid stirrup]

Bad convention

[quiet gust]

i figure but whats it SUPPOSED to be

[hard ivy]

The G is just a multiplier. You can put it in front of any unit

[placid stirrup]

I assume they just mean "watt" but added an unnecessary t

[quiet gust]

so GigAMinutes 🙃

[hard ivy]

That'd be Gmin, but yes

If you wanted to specifically say 10¹² min

[bronze pawn]

In my language we write Watt as Вт to avoid confusion with Volt as B. I didn't know the proper convention in English, so I just transliterated Вт to Wt

[quiet gust]

so then why is GB a 1024 multiplier ( I Know why in coding terms)

[quiet gust]

reasonable

[quiet gust]

but yeah in english its just W

[placid stirrup]

Yeah, no need for more than one letter in pretty much all cases
k, M, G, T are the usual denominations you'll mostly need

[hard ivy]

It's not, actually. 1 GB = 1000 MB. But 1 GiB = 1024 MiB

[quiet gust]

tf is the i

[hard ivy]

Anyone who uses 1 GB to mean 1024 MB is technically incorrect

[quiet gust]

the worst kind of incorrect

[hard ivy]

Gibibytes and mibibytes 🙃
(And kibibytes and tibibytes and so on (pibibytes? Not actually sure about that one lol))

[quiet gust]

(futuramma reference)

[quiet gust]

so do unpload speed on computers say GB and use GiB

[quiet gust]

pibibibibibibibibbibibibytes

[placid stirrup]

Don't get Kyo started on nibbles

[hard ivy]

Depends whether they use binary or decimal multipliers. The base unit is a byte, the rest are multiples of it

[bleak hound]

I do wish there was another fluid tank, like the small tank but with the footprint of the large one

[bronze pawn]

This is a conspiracy by storage manufacturers. At some point they redefined Kilobyte to mean "1000 bytes", and renamed the commonly known 1024 bytes to Kibibyte. So they can sell 1 TB drives that only have 0.9 TB. And if anyone complaints, they just go "Oh, you're confusing mega with mebi, you silly customer".

[quiet gust]

sounds about right

[hard ivy]

Storage companies use one standard, windows uses the other, but neither uses the i. One of them is wrong, but I don't remember who

[bronze pawn]

Windows, Linux, I assume Macos too, never used it.

[bleak hound]

Is it always Aurora in the sky now? Or is there still the pretty stars?

[dense turtle]

dayum how many stuff for phase 3 yall were producing? i just checked math and to make 3 modular engines and adaptive control units id need 1200 iron 600 copper and 500 oil

i guess i could do just 1 adaptive per minute since i only need a 100

[azure linden]

Polish ||ja wszystko jebnalem na jednym producencie na pelnym OC i sloopie xDD zrobiło może w 90min||

[quiet gust]

windows uses GiB but says it uses GB

[placid stirrup]

Kuuuuuuuuuuuur-

[azure linden]

btw #screenshots message it's done.

[bleak hound]

Where are the pretty stars?

[torn furnace]

the 0.9 TB is because your storage have fonction on it that uses some of that space.

manufacturer will use the incorext 10^x increment because of that used space.

windows display real total space (so 2^x) (or at least it use to)

a disk or ssd is never fully empty / erased.

[hard ivy]

Can confirm that's how I do all of my elevator completions
But unfortunately I also have to say #rules

[dense turtle]

but even if i sloop and oc i still have to make a factory for it dont i

so lets say if i sloop the manufacturer i could use half the resources?

[hard ivy]

Nope. Feed it the needed items from containers

You should have those automated anyway, because they're building ingredients

Make just enough to complete the phase and you can tear it all down

[dense turtle]

just say what troubles you

[bronze pawn]

where fun in that

[dense turtle]

we wont just tell u do that and do that

[bronze pawn]

I mean its fun to learn the game and find your way to play, its not fun when people tell you how to play

with what

[placid stirrup]

You've already been told at least once the correct channel for that. It also doesn't seem like you're interested in finding the tools to create self sufficiency for yourself.

[dense turtle]

im guessing u just started just build a couple bio gens and feed them manually for now

[bronze pawn]

power good, no power bad, hope this helps

[placid stirrup]

If you had asked for some resources, guides, anything that would help yourself, you might have figured it out by now

[bronze pawn]

Throw some leaves into the back of the base (it has two generators). Connect wires from the generators to whatever sails your boat

Thats' the spirit

Press Q

[dense turtle]

u have power in ur base

there are 2 generators

[placid stirrup]

Watch a YouTube vid

[bronze pawn]

Play single player, learn basics.

[dense turtle]

so u mean ur playing multiplayer on creative mode?

[bronze pawn]

I don't know what is your problem, sorry

[dense turtle]

huh

imo satisfactory sucks on multiplayer

especially if ur playing on sum creative mode lmao but u do u

we can all recommend playing single player with no cheats on

[placid stirrup]

If you join with randoms, yes

[dense turtle]

thats what we are telling u 😭

jarvis is this ragebait (insert gif)

wdym u wanna sue the biomass gen 😭

[azure linden]

considering the roblox tag, i have some doubts lmao

[dense turtle]

so u barerly know what biomass gen is and u have half inventory of coal

[bronze pawn]

Gather leaves, drop them in, seriously, how do you function in life

[dense turtle]

jarvis, now insert the patrick meme

yes the one where bubble gets out of his mouth

did u just join a random

then that makes no sense

multiplayer is fine if yall start at the same time and yall are friends

now ur confused and hes probably mid game

[azure linden]

@velvet tartan first of all, start a completely new solo save, dont skip Phase 0, learn the game as you go

Phase 3? 💀 💀

thats mid game

[dense turtle]

phase 3 is closer to end game than to fuel biomass gens

[hard ivy]

Time-wise, not really

[bronze pawn]

reminds me of some youtube skit, about a guy who loads a save file from a game he hasn't touched in years, and he has no idea how anything works, despite he built it all himself. Or like watching a code you wrote last week

[dense turtle]

so rn im at 90 hours and im about to complete phase 3 ur saying im closer to collecting leaves than ending phase 4?

[bronze pawn]

except our little friends didn't even bulid anything, he just got another man's save file

[azure linden]

yes but you also need to pump water to it

[hard ivy]

Phase 5 is the end

[dense turtle]

bro just go on single 😭

[dense turtle]

mb phase 5

what ur doing makes no sense thats like watching a movie from the middle skipping the first half

[sterile blade]

This, and many more info you'll need throughout the game are explained in the tutorial. Please don't skip it just to ask others to tell you what the tutorial would have ^^

[jaunty jewel]

no

[dense turtle]

okay nah

i dont believe hes serious, if he is i feel sorry for him

[azure linden]

I'm at 85h and i completed P3 today lol

[jaunty jewel]

ehhh

[azure linden]

the roblox tag might suggest something lmao

[quiet gust]

omg clippy

[dense turtle]

@velvet tartan are u a lil dude perhaps, like 12?

[jaunty jewel]

with the prep i did for phase 4 in phase 3 it took me very little time to "complete" phase 4

[sterile blade]

Did your mind have a sudden journey through time?

[hard ivy]

I guess it depends how much you rush. If you want to automate everything, properly, then yeah, that's at least how much it'll take I think.
You can rush through the last phase or even the latter half of P4, then it'll be faster. But idk if I'd recommend it

[jaunty jewel]

all i needed to do was make some aluminium, and move some aluminium around

[quiet gust]

n i just got riminded off that guy i got in my yt feed that said to change ur pfp to clippy

[dense turtle]

well rn i spend like 20 hours learning trains and building the main storage

[hard ivy]

Do you not have depots? Main storage is so pre-1.0

[sterile blade]

The farther you go, the slower you progress ^^

[quiet gust]

maybe dont say that here...

[sterile blade]

Welp, reminder to watch that video! :P

[jaunty jewel]

if you dont go to overproduce phase 5 is really short

i will stick by what ive said before in that phase 5 is underwhelmingly easy/short

[hard ivy]

Unless you decide to do Ficsonium 🙃
Then that's +100h

[dense turtle]

im an old head and i just wanted to have it and i also learned trains too

[jaunty jewel]

yeah ficsonium is extremely long in comparison to everything else in the game honestly

[dense turtle]

so ficsonium is some crazy stuff? i guess if i were to do that id start a new save with everything i learned on this one

[hard ivy]

Nuclear in general. My U6 save was 150h P4 completion 300h max nuke plant 💀

[dense turtle]

because im my biggest hater and i dont like most of the stuff i make

[jaunty jewel]

its all stuff you learn anyway

yes, it does say that both in the gui and im sure it says it somewhere in unlocking it

[azure linden]

[dense turtle]

if u dont listen u wont get help

[main topaz]

Try and run it without it.

[topaz shale]

This looks tough to watch, ngl

[dense turtle]

ong

[jaunty jewel]

there was a guy a while ago that just complained about the game being buggy and bad when he set up trains and it didnt work (he did it wrong ofc)

[azure linden]

true true

nope, that's it

[main topaz]

Its on by default.

[jaunty jewel]

how do you turn a biomass burner on?

[dense turtle]

yes trains so shit it (the station is the wrong way)

[azure linden]

i'm out, gtg wash myself lol

gn everyone

[jaunty jewel]

how do you turn a constructor on? or an assembler?

[dense turtle]

nah this GOT TO be ragebait

and it works

im done im leaving goodnight

[jaunty jewel]

probably, im gonna see how it goes

[topaz shale]

The game literally explains all you need to know

[main topaz]

Have you tried adding water? Plants need water to grow.

[jaunty jewel]

then maybe, play the tutorial

[dense turtle]

im gonna scream and shout and let it all out

[hard ivy]

Bro joined a multiplayer world in phase 3 and refuses to go to singleplayer to learn

[sterile blade]

Train signals do be quite buggy atm though...

[jaunty jewel]

you need a water jug, crafted with plastic, fill it up and pour it in the machine

[hard ivy]

Throwback to that one guy who put pumps on every single inch of a pipe

The game has a TUTORIAL

[jaunty jewel]

maybe, play the tutorial (2)

[main topaz]

You can't. You gotta get a machine to do it for you.

[topaz shale]

Which is why I'm just not gonna interact. If they refuse to do the tutorial part of the game and then gets upset that the game isn't doing what it is supposed to do, then that is on them.

[dense turtle]

yeah using the bp really helped

[sterile blade]

Did someone mention the game has a tutorial yet? Anyone...?

[jaunty jewel]

it was before 1.1

[jaunty jewel]

nah it doesnt wdym

[dense turtle]

nah its still there

[hard ivy]

I think they meant the guy complaining about trains being buggy was before 1.1
And they weren't really buggy then

[dense turtle]

nah theres no tutorial u start at phase 3 and power biomass gen with coal generator without water

[sterile blade]

No, I'm referring to the bugs introduced in 1.1 😅 (signals not working, needing to rebuild rails)

[dense turtle]

oh aigfht

start a new goddamn save

[jaunty jewel]

i cant tell if your beyond help or ragebaiting im ngl

[dense turtle]

its over for bro

[hard ivy]

Well, there was one signal bug that was about as confusing as the current bug, but it was rare. Like one Reddit post every month

[quiet gust]

wtf happened is this the lil dude bro or smth

[dense turtle]

how did u even turn the pc on or sit at ur chair?

[quiet gust]

have you ever played the game and seen the new save button

[jaunty jewel]

3x + 5 = 11 find the value of x

[quiet gust]

he never turned it off

[jaunty jewel]

aight its ragebait gg

[dense turtle]

close

[sterile blade]

Let's take a deep breath and turn down the trolling a little bit, yeah?
Don't get baited ^^

[jaunty jewel]

33+77=?

[quiet gust]

typical roblox player

[hard ivy]

Yeah, but at least this one is funny

[quiet gust]

you have a calculator

[sterile blade]

Debatable...

[dense turtle]

is this ur first game ever

[hard ivy]

I'm having a great time
I should go take a shower tho

[ionic forge]

Cast screws over 6 inventory slots

Maybe I did make a mistake

[jaunty jewel]

idk man you seem younger than discord tos

[quiet gust]

ehhh

[dense turtle]

oops

[hard ivy]

I'll always take inventory over anything related to screws

[jaunty jewel]

no, they lowered it to 10+ actually

[true mulch]

The age limit depends on the country

[quiet gust]

you have to see the new save button to be able to join a game

[true mulch]

Despite it being the same platform

[dense turtle]

in poland its 13

[ionic forge]

Make the age limit 16+ and leave it at that

[quiet gust]

so are you under 17

[jaunty jewel]

if thats the case you are definitely underage 💀

[quiet gust]

so what your saying via deflection is you are

[ionic forge]

Over half of discord needs to be exterminated then

[dense turtle]

so u confirm ur underage

[hard ivy]

As if that wasn't obvious before

[quiet gust]

well yes but he has to say it

[sterile blade]

Antinatalism, is that you??

[ionic forge]

Mods enclosed this individual in a prison of his own mind

[ionic forge]

Erase the concept of countries so we can live united as a single empire, super earth

[jaunty jewel]

wait until you find out that every machine in this game uses power

[ionic forge]

Thus is the circle of life

[jaunty jewel]

i cant power machines without power ???? unpossible

[dense turtle]

@velvet tartan read this carefully - start a new save

[ionic forge]

You need energy to cook food that gives you energy, whats there to understand?

[quiet gust]

piower gens dont need power

[split pewter]

basically nuclear power

[fast roost]

wait am i tripping? normal fuel generator says it needs 20m cubed but when i triple slug it still needs 20m cubed is it consuming 20m or 50m?

[dense turtle]

biomass is a generator

[jaunty jewel]

let me make it a bit better for you

[quiet gust]

too complex try simplifying

[jaunty jewel]

nevermind i cant do that

[split pewter]

when it burns fuel it'll turn into 50m3, weird bug

[ionic forge]

Once again, the factorio offshore pump is the pinnacle of efficiency

[fast roost]

oh i see

[quiet gust]

its 50 but it doesnt update immediately

[jaunty jewel]

sir is your generator connected to a power line

[dense turtle]

sir is u in kindergarten

[split pewter]

yeah, happens to refinery too (only for liquids iirc)

[fast roost]

nah i was looking at the drop down menu rather than the 50m cubed below it

[ionic forge]

Uses no power, works in super heated and below zero conditions, the factorio offshore pump is at the top of the pyramid when it comes to automation games machines

[jaunty jewel]

maybe next year 🙏

[split pewter]

water in your inventory..

[quiet gust]

yeah that never updates

[fast roost]

doesnt it freeze on aquillo

[split pewter]

cup your hands and pray for the best??

[sterile blade]

No, it's an abomination

[dense turtle]

i wouldnt have this problems if yall gave me this game for the first time while im wasted

[ionic forge]

yes no

[split pewter]

how do i get a fuel generator to burn at precisely 43.3334/m

are you putting the coal in manually..?

[jaunty jewel]

43.3333/20

[dense turtle]

fafo with overclocking or calculate

[ionic forge]

Just make a loop bruh

[split pewter]

its a game about automation

and factory building

[ionic forge]

Hand feeding? In MY automation game??

[topaz shale]

You placed down a belt before?

[jaunty jewel]

no let me hand craft ballistic warp drive

[split pewter]

cant even craft heat sinks, broken game

[dense turtle]

prob gonna be around 205% or sum

[split pewter]

lets see

41

[dense turtle]

im bad with math btw

[balmy locust]

There is a mod that lets you change what a machine is making at a distance with a remote, does anyone remember what it is called? I can't find it...

[jaunty jewel]

@split pewter

[split pewter]

how do i input that?

[dense turtle]

oh so thats the math

[split pewter]

oh wait

[dense turtle]

lmao

[jaunty jewel]

press n to enter codex/calculator

[split pewter]

i just realized nvm

[jaunty jewel]

do calculation and enter the result

is it even n i havent played in like 20 years

[dense turtle]

so tis 216.6665%

[split pewter]

2.16667

[jaunty jewel]

blow it up

[fast roost]

blow it up

[jaunty jewel]

or go to a different node

[fast roost]

yeah if you dont have bombs go to a different node

find some sulphur

[split pewter]

research the sulfur tree

in the mam

[dense turtle]

thats not how u talk to thisman

[split pewter]

ok

[jaunty jewel]

dont bother with that rn your not developed enough to understand what a sulfur is

[split pewter]

no

[dense turtle]

wrong

better luck next time

i wanted to go sleep but this is just too entertaining

[split pewter]

its a mix of sulphide-sulphate mineral mixtures

bro

[dense turtle]

an animal

[split pewter]

a building.

[dense turtle]

an alien matter of fact

[split pewter]

an alien building

a walking alien building

[dense turtle]

woah

[split pewter]

dude

[dense turtle]

pause

[split pewter]

you cant say that here man

[jaunty jewel]

the closest alien to any species we have on earth actually, it very closely resembles a giraffe

[topaz shale]

Uh oh

[fast roost]

guys is this kid 13+

[quiet gust]

you age in reverse everytime you speak

[dense turtle]

13-

[quiet gust]

not at this rate

[topaz shale]

< 13

[dense turtle]

this might be the most little cute dumb guy i ever met or the longest lasting ragebait ever

[jaunty jewel]

we already told you that , just go find another node

[fast roost]

research the sulphur tree in the mam

[sterile blade]

I built this (#screenshots message) while wasted
||Totally not just taking the chance to share a nice screenshot||

[jaunty jewel]

now now guys dont use slurs !

[split pewter]

those Space Giraffe-Tick-Penguin-Whale Things?

[topaz shale]

This reads like someone who is around 8 years old or so.

[dense turtle]

he said hes retarded himself comeon

[split pewter]

btw gltich your name is spelt wrong

[fast roost]

nah no 8 year old is making it to phase 2

[jaunty jewel]

no its not

[sterile blade]

Oh, ok, then it's fine

[split pewter]

"gltich"

[jaunty jewel]

thats not incorrect

[split pewter]

yes, use biomass burners as a kick start

[split pewter]

??

what

[jaunty jewel]

guys my friend murdered someone so i murdered him but since he did it its ok

[dense turtle]

we absolutely do not

[jaunty jewel]

my name is not spelled incorrectly

[split pewter]

dm bait

[split pewter]

🙏

[jaunty jewel]

the word glitch is spelled incorrectly sure but thats not my name

[split pewter]

name as in discord name

[quiet gust]

just play dude it becomes obvious

[split pewter]

not actual name

[jaunty jewel]

we have looped back to
Play the tutorial

[sterile blade]

Not without the tutorial...
And we circle back again...

[jaunty jewel]

my name is gltich not glitch

[topaz shale]

There are some crazy 8 year olds. He did say he was starting at phase 2. Who knows who took him to phase 2 prior.

[jaunty jewel]

i dont want to be put on a list thank you

[split pewter]

yeah, i didnt even know what the game was until i deforested, slid to a new biome (for 3 days straight) and harmed harmless wildlife

[quiet gust]

then make a world with phase 0 on is what i mean

[jaunty jewel]

whats a satisfactory?

[dense turtle]

did u join him to ragebaiting?

[fast roost]

take a hint he doesnt want to vc

[split pewter]

BAD PUN, LIFETIME BAN.

[jaunty jewel]

no, my name is literally gltich, not glitch

[fast roost]

hell no

[topaz shale]

A feeling you get when you exploit the resources and please ADA

[jaunty jewel]

if i wanted to be named glitch i wouldve named myself glitch

[hollow turret]

there is a vc?

[split pewter]

no

[jaunty jewel]

he wants to dm vc

[split pewter]

nobody is gonna vc

[dense turtle]

yeah i guess u spelled the word glitch wrong but ur name isnt spelled wrong

[jaunty jewel]

this is beyond low tier ragebait

[fast roost]

mods ban this guy for being underaged'

[quiet gust]

no one wants to vc kid, deal wit it

[jaunty jewel]

thats what im saying, my name isnt glitch its gltich

[dense turtle]

yeah thats cool what u did ngl

[split pewter]

and that is an excellent argument but it is spelt wrong (on purpose)

[fast roost]

@simple nymph

[dense turtle]

wrap it up buddy

[quiet gust]

are you fucking 10 bro

[dense turtle]

wrap it up buddy

[jaunty jewel]

ehhhhhh

[jaunty jewel]

thats very generous

[split pewter]

watermelon react this man

[hollow turret]

so a call then?

????

[dense turtle]

nah he lit created an account to ragebait but now he sold by repeating then you vc 4+ times

5+

[split pewter]

5 times to be precise

[quiet gust]

holdup that response was fire, absolutely roasted

[jaunty jewel]

not gonna if this guy is <10 then i can picture him like crying and getting mad at the screen

[topaz shale]

This is absolutely bonkers that he is still trying to get someone to VC only to talk in a crappy mic COD style.

[fast roost]

oh yeah

[jaunty jewel]

typical kid babyrage lmao

[fast roost]

wheres the mods lol

[split pewter]

sleeping like good mods do

[split pewter]

3 mods online

[jaunty jewel]

hey man, you failed to ragebait this server, go try another one

[dense turtle]

I said 4+ cuz i didn't bother counting what this dumba- did i hear mods.. cute little dumbo is saying

[jaunty jewel]

"then you vc"

[split pewter]

how old are you, discord lowered their age limit to 10+ so im just making sure

[topaz shale]

I don't know. Dude might legit be a young kid.

[quiet gust]

as r/bonehurtingjuice would say

absolutely not go fuck yourself

[jaunty jewel]

????

[topaz shale]

Uhhhhhhhhhh

[dense turtle]

Aight bro

[quiet gust]

embed fail bozo

[jaunty jewel]

yeah hes 12 max

[fast roost]

do blueprints connect from splitter to splitter

[split pewter]

@velvet tartan

[fast roost]

because mine is refusing to

[dense turtle]

https://tenor.com/view/jarvis-ragebait-rage-bait-jarvis-clip-that-jarvis-meme-gif-11046632004782930587

[split pewter]

not sure, but i think they can connect conveyor-wise

[hollow turret]

bonk

[dense turtle]

Well gifs aint allowed ofc its gonna fail

[split pewter]

hm

[jaunty jewel]

i dont think so? havent really played around with them tbh

[split pewter]

https://tenor.com/view/epic-embed-fail-ryan-gosling-cereal-embed-failure-laugh-at-this-user-gif-20627924

[topaz shale]

Shit. Got bonked

[split pewter]

well then

[fast roost]

wait is it 17+ then

[hollow turret]

its 13+

[fast roost]

i dont even remember it being 17+

[quiet gust]

if you do bp autoconnect and put a small belt after the splitter to let it know that it should connect there

[jaunty jewel]

its not, its 10+

[fast roost]

yeah i was abouta say

[fast roost]

ah alr

[topaz shale]

I need to remember that this exists. So damn useful.

[quiet gust]

build your damn factories around it

[split pewter]

yeah, added in 1.1 so not alot of people know about it

[split pewter]

wrong

[dense turtle]

The autoconnecting feature?

[split pewter]

yes

iirc

[hollow turret]

look in #off-topic-media

[topaz shale]

I'm going to have to set up a blueprint system that makes the logistics floor building easier. Especially if I can just place the blueprint and nothing else.

[split pewter]

there goes our chance to get him to admit to it..

[jaunty jewel]

so is youtube, your point?

[dense turtle]

Discord tos and ios store rating is not the same

[hollow turret]

^

[dense turtle]

It aint GLTich

😞

[topaz shale]

Thank god

[dense turtle]

Ngl my google says discord is 13+ not 10

[split pewter]

https://tenor.com/view/epic-embed-fail-ryan-gosling-cereal-embed-failure-laugh-at-this-user-gif-20627924

[split pewter]

yeah, thats cuz it was bait

to get him to say hes >13

[dense turtle]

Oh i might be retarded too after all

[split pewter]

maybe

[hollow turret]

bro

[dense turtle]

Ngl this might be enough to ban

[split pewter]

prob

[dense turtle]

Ignoring the 9/11 stuff he said

[split pewter]

yeah, even when you ignore it

[topaz shale]

I don't wanna click it. What is it?

[dense turtle]

might be disturbing || Some cow balls hanged around a childs neck with the cow hanging in the back ||

[split pewter]

hell no

[topaz shale]

Oh that's actually really bad

[split pewter]

please delete your message or add spoilers

[topaz shale]

Like really really bad

[split pewter]

not even, i'd need to turn the message into a document just to say how bad

[split pewter]

thank you so much

[topaz shale]

And even then, might not be enough to fully have it come across how bad it is.

[split pewter]

yeah..

ok you didnt need to go into detail

😭

[dense turtle]

And he said the walking alien building is like 9/11

[split pewter]

yes

oh moderators!

[topaz shale]

Oh god it is even worse...

[split pewter]

mainly why im not clicking on that thing

[hollow turret]

should i @ mods

[split pewter]

100%

[fast roost]

i did and they didnt respond

[dense turtle]

I mean the cow is like in the butchers idk how u call it, skinned?

[split pewter]

wait your tag has titanfall 2

[fast roost]

when i pinged kino

[split pewter]

SOMEBODY ELSE PLAYS TITANFALL 2 AND ITS NOT JUST ME!!!

[dense turtle]

The story is really good the multiplayer is kinda meh

[lime ermine]

I have Titanfall but no time to play it :(

[split pewter]

multiplayer is debatable, story is a work of art

[lime ermine]

Looks really fun but I keep forgetting it exists

[split pewter]

needs a sequel, not a cash grab.

[hollow turret]

<@&387163995947270144> this gif is pretty bad+ he is making 9/11 joke and is a troll smite this kid

[topaz shale]

Yeah really glad I didn't. Was close to, though.

[fast roost]

ima be real if im making 9 extra iron ingots is it worth to spend a whole machine on it or just leave it for belt simplicity

[hollow turret]

u able to play on the tf1 servers

[split pewter]

yeah, its getting left behind in the dust while other cash grab games are being led to victory by ea games and stuff

[pearl ocean]

Does anyone know how to play satisfactory plus?

[split pewter]

me? no, others? probably

[fast roost]

because im using pure iron ingots and they perfectly fill 780 belts

[split pewter]

??

[split pewter]

honestly, leave them if its not being recycled

[dense turtle]

A mod i think?

[pearl ocean]

Got it

[split pewter]

prob

[fast roost]

gosh this planning for the future stuff is really weird

im building all of this and it isnt gonna work when i turn it on

[hollow turret]

u guys do that in your game i plan for one phase at a time
^doing this for my first run through my others will have the planning

[fast roost]

yeah i used to do it that way

[split pewter]

honestly

i get everything hooked up to a connection and only plug it in when ready, is that normal?

[fast roost]

but i just paved a biome and i dont wanna redo it

[fast roost]

if youre using manifolds you shouldnt do that

[split pewter]

not

[fast roost]

you wanna preload everything unless it takes forever

[split pewter]

its a giant line

[fast roost]

look up manifold

[split pewter]

ik what manifolds are

[fast roost]

ok idk what giant line means then lol

[split pewter]

a giant line as in a giant line of buildings

[jaunty jewel]

can you show me im curious

[split pewter]

just one long production strip

[fast roost]

if you load balanced everything then go ahead and turn it on

[split pewter]

not quite, its just buildings in a line to make one thing

[jaunty jewel]

what do you mean not quite

[split pewter]

im on the other side of the map

[jaunty jewel]

ah

[dense turtle]

Im lowk sad that guy gone away it was entertaining but his ragebait was getting me tho

[split pewter]

i do have trains but i dont wanna go out of the way to do that

[fast roost]

holy shit building with the jetpack is gonna make me burst a vessel

[split pewter]

true

[fast roost]

make hoverpack tier1

[split pewter]

wait till you see hoverpack

[fast roost]

dw ive beaten the game

[split pewter]

ah nvm

[topaz shale]

At the rate he was going, wouldn't be surprised if he started trying to post more NSFW stuff.

[fast roost]

hoverpack my beloved

[split pewter]

hoverpack is good for transport too, its a better jetpack imo

[dense turtle]

I feel like if i need to get stuff from other side of the map its better to just belt it cuz the train might take a bit long

[split pewter]

while debatable it is good

[fast roost]

yeah if you wanna spacewalk everywhere

[split pewter]

debatable

but yeah

also are you using biofuel with your jetpack?

[fast roost]

nah gas

[split pewter]

ahh

biofuel is slow burning but also slow

[fast roost]

its a biproduct of my early plastic/rubber so might aswell package it

[split pewter]

like 9/10 seconds(?) of time just going straight up, lasts longer with tapping (up to 1 minute i think)

[split pewter]

yeah

also do you mean fuel?

[fast roost]

yeah

shits gas is it not

[split pewter]

thought so, theres already gases in the game

[split pewter]

fuel and gas, idk

game calls it fuel so i do too

[hollow turret]

a server i am staff we trolled this (kid)ragebaiter that was underage ( i believe he said he was 9 💀 so bad we got his mom in the call with :|

[fast roost]

thats vile

[split pewter]

thats just

[fast roost]

absolutely foul

[split pewter]

honestly hilarious

[hollow turret]

we were doing it the same way yall were doing it in a way

[split pewter]

yeah

[fast roost]

keep inventory + hypertube cannon my beloved

[hollow turret]

u can get keep inventory option :0

[rigid glen]

Keep All is bae

[fast roost]

yeah options > gameplay and its at the top

[dense turtle]

Isnt there smth like u can use discrod below 13 if u get parents consent?

[dense turtle]

Im abusing the respawn button ong

[split pewter]

IDK

[fast roost]

i learned about it from the satisfactory short of the pioneer jumping off the uranium mountain lol

[split pewter]

i did that (and didnt die)

[fast roost]

why would i travel back when i can just esc r enter

[split pewter]

esc + click more like

esc r enter doesnt work here

[fast roost]

its a roblox joke

[split pewter]

ik

btw when you sort inventory the game just removes and gives back all the items, it doesnt sort anything

[fast roost]

wtf

i did not need this divine knowledge dropped on me

[split pewter]

source of information : clicking sort and tab on the same frame

[fast roost]

holy shit 3600 iron i gotta process into ingots

is coal used for literally anything else besides turbofuel and steel

i wanna turn it all into steel

[split pewter]

coal power i guess

[fast roost]

yeah besides that

[split pewter]

but nobody likes that when your past low tiers

[pearl ocean]

diamonds

[split pewter]

honestly i think rocket fuel might need it

[fast roost]

fuck

i forgot about diamonds

[split pewter]

GL

[fast roost]

whatever thats future me's problem

[split pewter]

-literally me anytime i make a decision that ruins my factory

[hollow turret]

nope

[split pewter]

it might be if your under 17 you need consent idk

[hollow turret]

there are restrictions put on games so that if your acount age is under the age limit for the game then your acount can not play that game

[split pewter]

ah

[dense turtle]

I mean yeah in us u need id to buy 18+ games but thats not the case in europe (all of it i think?)

[fast roost]

not yet lol

steam does NOT have my id yet

[dense turtle]

Oh i mean irl lol

[fast roost]

oh who buys physical copies anymore

[dense turtle]

Like dont yall need to get your parent to buy gta 5

[fast roost]

i dont even have a cd reader for my pc

[dense turtle]

Same

[fast roost]

no

[split pewter]

those people who remember when doom wasnt released

[split pewter]

if your underaged for it yes

why is there a monkey on a cliff

[fast roost]

fuck i forgot the devs went quirky with pure copper ingots

why is it different compared to iron 😭

[sterile blade]

I find Pure copper's numbers nicer than pure iron's xD

[fast roost]

i mean its exactly 2.5x ore per ingot

but it doesnt fit exactly onto a 780 like iron

[split pewter]

where do you respawn if the pod is dismantled and theres no hub

[steady glade]

try it

[split pewter]

bet

[fast roost]

prob somewhere in your starting biome

[split pewter]

i wonder if theres just a new pod

what biome

[topaz shale]

I'm not sure how much plastic and rubber I'll end up needing so I'm just going to use the closest pure oil node, that is in the blue crater, and turn that into 120 of each plastic and rubber a minute. Though I could also try to just make fuel and turn the byproducts into the plastic and rubber that I'll be needing. Not sure which way to really go, tbh.

[split pewter]

solution : make as much plastic as possible

[steady glade]

wait a bit, go explore some more

take your object scanner with you

[split pewter]

what biome

[steady glade]

the one you selected at the start

[topaz shale]

But what if power?

I already got through this part of the game already but I got burnt out just in the middle of phase 3

[fast roost]

sounds like grassy planes

[split pewter]

no what biome do i choose

[fast roost]

because he chose blue crate lake for oil

[topaz shale]

Yeah I started at grassy planes.

[steady glade]

dunes

[fast roost]

fuck dunes

northern forest my beloved

[split pewter]

are you sure

[steady glade]

you can make a lot more than 120 out of a pure noed

[topaz shale]

I could technically go to the oil area up to the north west but since I'm needing to go to the blue crater for major power anyways, might as well get my plastic and rubber there.

[steady glade]

yeah lmao

[split pewter]

i can barely make 45 plastic per minute with 2 pure nodes

[topaz shale]

Oh for sure. Was just needing starting numbers to start from.

[steady glade]

you need more hard drives

[topaz shale]

I'm planning on going exploring heavily once I get the jetpack and some basic oil processing going for the fuel. Might just use a small normal oil node just to get through and then I'll start exploring.

[steady glade]

yeah thats a good plan

[split pewter]

remember : construct, automate, explore & exploit.

[topaz shale]

And then, once I get the amazing recipe for turbofuel, I'll start work on the massive power area.

[split pewter]

i feel like ficsit values money more than you

[steady glade]

its complex for no good reason, youll be fine with 1 pure node for fuel

until you're not and by then you'll have rocket fuel and nuclear

[topaz shale]

Isn't turbofuel really good for power production? I could just get by with regular fuel for power but that turbofuel...

[steady glade]

the logistics involved for turbofuel compared to how long its relevant for makes it pretty easy to skip

[topaz shale]

I do remember taking ages to have it set up the last time I tried it.

[steady glade]

a pure node cqan get you 20GW, unless you overproduce everything, that'll last you through phase 3

[split pewter]

just tested : having no spawn and dying just respawns you at a random spot in that biome

or starting biome

for science!

[viscid bobcat]

do coal power plants require power to run?

allmy plants are slowly shutting down and the reason is no power

it says

[sterile blade]

Any building making power doesn't need power.
But they might not work if at least not connected to a powerline

[sterile blade]

If a powerplant says "no power", then it is also lacking some input and there should be a message about that too

[viscid bobcat]

i need pumps

[topaz shale]

God does that kind of power need any kind of alts?

[steady glade]

oh yeah 2 of them

[viscid bobcat]

my power plants are 12 meters above ground

🤦‍♂️

can you place pumps anywhere on a pipe and itll produce headlift for every part of the pipeline?

or do you need to put the pump right where it is raised

[steady glade]

itll produce headlift for the part past the pump

[viscid bobcat]

ok ok

so i can put it like right where the extracters are and its good

[steady glade]

for extractors the 10m mark is slightly below the power connection point
