[rustic pier]

I dont think the blueprint machine would cover what i want to make?

like full factory floor overview. plan out before construct

[shy fog]

there are people who do that

[rustic pier]

like a blueprint in realworld kinda deal 😄

Otherwise i can just use snagit and make something

[shy fog]

scim actually allows you to print a full game factory

[spark oracle]

so much work for only 66.67 encased beams a minute 🙁

[rustic pier]

i feel that

[spark oracle]

i have created my first "permanent" factory thank god

[shy fog]

like this psychotic little megaprint

[spark oracle]

i only need to change my belts and overclock some stuff when I unlock mk3 miners

[shy fog]

https://satisfactory-calculator.com/en/megaprints/index/details/id/1597/name/ALL+Phases+Project+Assembly+Parts+V2.0+Part+1

[dense violet]

Man, I'm so glad I 'played' this game by pasting someone elses file. cleaning hands motions , good job everyone

[shy fog]

has a screenshot and everything

personally don't like megaprints

but I'm also a benchpresser

[rustic pier]

take that union break. you deserve it

[shy fog]

I'm currently working phase 4 elevator parts 😛

[spark oracle]

i JUST finished phase 3 after 120 hrs and now i can start to rebuild every factory ive ever made in more convenient locations and set up trains

i cant wait 😄

[shy fog]

still, look at the megaprint stack if you want to visualize a factory, but personally say DO NOT USE IT

[spark oracle]

my main "factory" is just a spaghettified mess rn

[wicked nacelle]

just build new factories and use existing ones for the parts to do it

[spark oracle]

tis the plan

[shy fog]

my "factory" consists of maybe 20 buildings total

[weak mica]

Hey, so we just made a server, we rent one. We just build the hub there, but there is a discoball, baloons and a loud birthday music playing in the hub. where is the setting to disable that music? Its not the normal "music" setting. we have that off 😄 already tried "boombox" on0 and also not the right one. also the "mute music" did not work.

[shy fog]

and yes I am in phase 4

[dense violet]

probably event bug

[weak mica]

is there any solution for that? 😄

[wicked nacelle]

oh, it's 1.0 1.0 years old?

[dense violet]

turn back the clock maybe?

[wicked nacelle]

put the hub somewhere else?

You don't even have to leave the hub up - you can just put it down to unlock something and tear it back down

[spark oracle]

i now get to watch a shit ton of videos about trains 😄

[weak mica]

oh that is good to know, tyy

i thought i have to leave it there

[wicked nacelle]

focus on the two-track systems. That's the one that will scale out to the whole island

[wicked nacelle]

same with MAM, you can just put one down whenever you want it, do your business, then tear it down

[shy fog]

build a box, toss the 10 iron ore into it when not in use

[wicked nacelle]

if someone dies with the hub not built then they may not respawn where you'd like them to....

[rigid glen]

You respawn in your chosen starter biome

[weak mica]

I see, ty. imma do that 😄

[shy fog]

another good option is... just have a hypertube at the exit to get away from it as fast as possible?

[rugged ore]

has anyone else been crashing a lot more since the update

[mortal ginkgo]

I actually have better performance

though I didnt start to use blueprints alot yet

[fresh copper]

i havent played this game in 15 days :( maybe i can play tonight (im out from smth like 6:30-6 every weekday) (high school is crazy)

last time i didnt play for three weeks... i started a new save (tho that was for burnout-from-the-game reasons)

[rigid glen]

I'm a chronic restarter, you're not alone 🙂

[final lotus]

If im not really satisfied with my progress 70 hours in, should I restart or tear everything down?

[rigid glen]

Just move, no need to tear down

[pallid tide]

Any suggestions for improving this design so that the generator at the end doesn't run out of fuel? All gens triple overclocked. #screenshots message

[final lotus]

I suppose there is moving

[mortal ginkgo]

resources are infinite, you hardly need to restart, just yolo somewhere else and build better

while your "meh" setup still makes stuff for you behind

[final lotus]

alrighty, thanks for the input

[limpid cairn]

keep going, youll never be satisfied in this game

[stark summit]

badum-tss

[wicked nacelle]

the stuff you don't like is still making the same stuff it was when you made it. go build more somewhere else and use what you're making now to do it

worst case just make smart plates with it-- you'll need them

[rigid glen]

so each generator uses 50 fuel per cycle?

that's only 6 gens on mk2 pipe, can a manifold that long ever work?

[limpid cairn]

what fuel are you using?

[wicked nacelle]

sounds like fuel fuel

[limpid cairn]

true

if you can upgrade to turbo fuel

[rigid glen]

points to the question above about generartors

it's not my question

[limpid cairn]

ah

i didnt saw the message my bad, its not on my screen anymore xD

[rigid glen]

but the screenshot shows MANY MANY gensd on one long manifold, all OC'd

not sure a single or even double mk2 pipe can fill that many gens

[pallid tide]

Correct. 12 gens eating 50 each is exactly 600, but I'm wondering if having the entry pipe at one end is what's causing the gen at the far end to shut off periodically

[fresh copper]

I had a similar experience like 30-40 hours in, I moved but then I started only playing to get stuff up and running. It sucked the fun out of it for me, so while yeah move, don’t forget to keep doing what’s actually fun cuz it tainted that file for me that I didn’t actually enjoy a lot of Phase 3

Basically, move, I only restarted because I felt my file had lost its soul

[rigid glen]

That's definitely the reason. You can either move the source pipe to the physical middle of the manifold, or maybe just add a pump or two first to test?

[final lotus]

good to know, thank you

[pallid tide]

I'll try try this, thank you!

[rigid glen]

Dimensional storage also changes your op[tions. Have your first base making basic parts into your storage and you can then test moving anywhere on the map

[rigid glen]

Just to be clear, pumps shouldn't help this, but I know sometimes it does 🙂 it's worth a shot anyway

[final lotus]

I have it but it doesnt store much. I should still be fine right?

[rigid glen]

Just to start yes, and in my mind it stops your old base from being a 'waste of time'

[pallid tide]

Ok you think moving source pipe is more reliable then?

[rigid glen]

It's still useful

[dense violet]

it can help you solidify your building and logistics skills - but it's not for everyone

some people would get burned out by it.
it helped me though. I restarted at tiers 3 5 and 7

[rigid glen]

It's the first thing I'd try, if it doesn't work, then you need to rebuild for mutiple source pipes to smaller nodes of gens

Good Luck

[final lotus]

You restarted as in a new world or just moved/rebuilt your old base?

[dense violet]

fresh world
every time got faster and faster building things in neater and tidier ways

[final lotus]

I may try another world, and if restarting sucks I can just come back to my old one.

[dense violet]

true 🙂

[dense violet]

personally I would treat the tiers and milestones as a long tutorial that gets you prepped to build in a sandbox like mode after you've unlocked everything

at least if the plan isn't just stopping and 'winning' after you're done with that

[final lotus]

thats a good way to see it

if your mind is too focused on progression you're just going to get bored once you complete the last phase.

[dense violet]

focus on learning the basics. And then develop how you like to plan things out. I know my tactics changed fully like ... twice while going over the tiers a few times. Got a solid way of how I like to do things now 🙂

[dense violet]

also, probably the best planner available. Great UI and utility. Takes a bit of practice but well worth it https://www.satisfactorytools.com/1.0/production

[rigid glen]

Aftere never really progressing far into phase 4 and restarting a lot of the years, I finally did a full playthough including everything but nuclear and ficsonium. I think I can only now say that I could do a new, final type save and feel ok about the scope of what that means

[rare rivet]

is there some vanilla way to make the hoverpack disable flight via double tapping space instead of c?

[final lotus]

I never thought I would say this, but theres something satisfying about figuring out the math myself. Perhaps ill use it when things get too complex though.

[rigid glen]

One of the big streamers, maybe more, just uses excel, so you're in good company

[fresh copper]

yeah was about to say, it's somehow felt like cheating (myself) to use satisfactory calculator? once i get deep in phases 3 and 4 tho... ig i'll see

it is really satisfactory to do all the calculations pen and paper

and like, "hi im the satisfactory guy with my clipboard out drawing up a new future for humanity"

[rigid glen]

I couldn't have built my Heavy Modular Frame factory without a builder tool or very intense notes

[final lotus]

My first 10 hours I didn't really even do math. I just "this looks like it will be enough"ed it.

[fresh copper]

yeah ive seen a lot of phase 4 screenshots... i dunno if pen and paper are gonna hold up

[rigid glen]

I actually almost quit when I realized it's just a math game with a FP camera

[upper gale]

I don't think so. But that was why I switched my C keybind to Left Ctrl long ago. It's easier for me to press to slide jump or anything else that uses C

[rigid glen]

The really good builders blow my mind, including how organize they have to be 🙂

[dense violet]

so sure , like what you like, but one of the best things about this game is that there's no single optimal path to any specific goal in this game

that's mainly due to alt recipes. Planners like I linked can help you swap recipes in and out, that will completely change the numbers up and down the line, w/o doing a TON of grade school maths

[plain gate]

it's basically impossible to do anything efficiently in this game without either excel or a game calucaltor

[dense violet]

you can go 'hey, this recipe for "ITEM" seems a bit more crystal efficient, I wonder what this would look like'

[upper gale]

Nahh

You can it just takes a lot longer

[fresh copper]

Oh riight, I have like two alt recipes rn lol, so there’s always been an optimal method

Gotta go on a hard drive hunt

[dense violet]

and if you're only looking at like 2 or 3 steps it's not hard.

but it gets VERY involved

like you could cut steel entirely from your world production line if you like with the right recipes

Or use like every drop of crystal on the map

or barely any

[upper gale]

Also it feels really good when you use your own numbers because they're "nice numbers" and then it ends up working out

[plain gate]

#screenshots message tell me with a straight face you can do this on paper

[fresh copper]

Yk my like lifetime goal with this game is to have a save that utilizes every single resource at its max extraction rate. Didn’t even realize it would be part of the challenge to make it optimal in the first place lol (I need more hard drives)

[upper gale]

Idk about rocket fuel though... 4.1667 is no good

[dense violet]

I don't want to burst your bubble but that's extremely unlikely

forget the amoutn of time it would actually take, your computer would catch on fire first.

[fresh copper]

Okay yeah it felt like cheating when I was in phase one and trying to figure out what I needed to make like, reinforced plates lmao

[hard ivy]

This has inputs, too. This is not the entire production line lol

[fresh copper]

Oh right
“You’ll run out of frames before you run out of space” lmao

[upper gale]

With anything just gotta break it down into smaller steps

[plain gate]

yeah, calculator doesn't function without explicitly stating uranium waste

[dense violet]

even before they added TONS of resources in 1.0, people's computers wouldn't handle it. And there's at least like 30% more resources pm on the map

[strange vigil]

Yo, I have 10x refinaries making fuel, which is 40 each which makes 400 fuel. Does this mean 1x t2 pipe works fine with this?

[hard ivy]

I was talking about the plastic, rubber and aluminium ingots. I know the waste input is necessary

[fresh copper]

Yeah well good to know then that I most likely will never run out of resources to do things with

[dense violet]

400 < 600 , confirmed

[plain gate]

oh yeah but oil and aluminum aren't really complex production chains tbh

[dense violet]

the worst that will happen is that you could pick certain resource heavy alt recipes and suck up THAT resource. But that's always entirely avoidable

[strange vigil]

perfect thanks mate

[dense violet]

like if you pick all the sulfur recipes to use on everything? you'll run out of it very very fast

[hard ivy]

Good news. It's not actually 4.1667 exactly. It's something that's a little more convenient than that

[plain gate]

exception is iron, treat as if it is infinite lmao

[dense violet]

basically 🙂

[upper gale]

Repeating decimal isn't it

[dense violet]

although you use it for so much the Iron Alloy recipe is still very nice in spots

[hard ivy]

Yep. 4.1(6)

[upper gale]

dies inside

It's fine I'll just have one fuel gen that doesn't get enough every once in a blue moon

[stark summit]

i don't know if it makes a difference, but you can do fractions (kinda) in overclocks

[dense violet]

it still rounds up

[hard ivy]

Or just build a number of gens that consume a convenient amount of RF

So basically a multiple of 3, if not 6

[stark summit]

maybe it considers more decimal places than it shows? /shrug

[dense violet]

afaik, according to tech geeks, to the 4th

[fresh copper]

There’s a page on the wiki going into detail (don’t remember the link)

[stark summit]

ah, then underclock it a tiny bit and call it a day. you'll forget after an hour anyways

[fresh copper]

Also it’s been asked a thousand times but, can you unlock all recipes and upgrades if you get every hard drive?

[rustic hare]

yeah I just have my 600m³/min of rocket fuel power 143.5 instead of 144 gens because of the rounding

[rustic hare]

more than enough to play with

[dense violet]

well depending on what you're doing you generally want to round up the 4th decimal

[hard ivy]

??? 600/min powers 144 gens exactly

[dense violet]

but it doesn't really matter unless you're doing fancy things

[pallid tide]

@rigid glen Thanks for the pipe help, gens have been running a bit with the source pipe adjustment and it's either taking longer to fluctuate or is totally stable now. Thanks a bunch!

[rustic hare]

maybe because of sloshing, idk, but it's unstable with 144, and stable with 143.5

already got looped manifolds

[dense violet]

youv'e also got buffers and a TON of extra connections on the stuff

[shrewd palm]

if you're using a program for that number it might just be rounding

[dense violet]

that's really gonna bounce your fluids around

[rustic hare]

no buffers, and nothing else but the blenders and gens

[dense violet]

not this? https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/553550313533997057/1415153919494979625/image.png?ex=68c22c4a&is=68c0daca&hm=efd837af01ea1166381796a213d7f7525154aee89747f3d448d01da247d1bd44&=&format=webp&quality=lossless&width=1128&height=634

[rustic hare]

it's from underclocking my plants and watching it for 4hrs period

[shrewd palm]

ahh

[rustic hare]

nope, just blenders, gens, and a looped manifold

[dense violet]

oh that's seems to be what you had shared

[rustic hare]

so in my 12x12 gen grid there's just that one that is underclocked to 50% lol, but 125MW isn't worth the unstable looking grid

[rustic hare]

not even mine 🤣

[dense violet]

oh I replied the the wrong person sorry, your pics are very similar at that size

[rustic hare]

I'll run to my plant later when I got the time, currently working on the iron plant

[dense violet]

avoid buffers and having tons of connections in your manifolds - this is a recipe for bad flow #screenshots message

[rustic hare]

also reworking rail indexing and station design today :P hard work, but should quadruple the train throughput

can't future proof anything in this game lol

[cunning siren]

SCIM can correct the inventory upgrade bug I experinced! Noice!

[upper gale]

I love how every player, ever, has used pumps incorrectly first before learning how it's supposed to be used

[plush dawn]

no

[cunning siren]

There isn't a in game tutorial for such stuff so....

[plush dawn]

(maybe)

[cunning siren]

I'm not sure why they would

[rustic hare]

can you demo the wrong uses for a pump that's usually seen?

[upper gale]

I used them incorrectly for a while too

[plush dawn]

i wonder what poor souls tried to pump nitrogen

[plain gate]

not necessarily incorrect, just useless use of pump lmao

[rustic hare]

and rocket fuel, not knowing it's a gas 😂

[dense violet]

have they?

[fresh copper]

i know they apply head lift, do they also restrict direction of flow tho?

[plain gate]

ya

[upper gale]

A long horizontal pipe with a pump on it is one. If it's fully horizontal it doesn't need headlift

[dense violet]

kinda. AT that point only

[rustic hare]

oh then I haven't ever used it that way, because I read the in-game tooltips 😂

[plush dawn]

i wonder at what point it is more power efficent to package fluids, belt them upwards, then unpackage them

[dense violet]

the point where people decide to play a 2d game and make sky factories I guess

[upper gale]

I guess it can be used that way too yeah

[plush dawn]

well headlift is funny so if you make a water tower way above any of the rest of your base, then that basically negates the need for pumps anywhere inside your base after the tower

even if you go up or down or pipe spaghetti or weave or lasagna or ravioli or rotini or any other factory pasta

[rustic hare]

man I'm so lazy to build today for some reason

[plush dawn]

me every day:

[rustic hare]

building another 10k iron factory

If you skip Tier 0 (Onboarding) do you not get the +9 ineventory slots?

[fresh copper]

okay im finally playing satisfactory its been two weeks

[limpid cairn]

I meant a compact one

I have to place like 20 of them down

[dense violet]

that's about as compact as you can make it w/o tons of clipping

[shrewd palm]

relapsing

[dense violet]

have multiple floors?

[limpid cairn]

It’s already multifloored I just want to make it look better

[rustic hare]

wait, how are the second, third, and fourth splitter fed?

[dense violet]

smart splitters with a sushi belt

[fresh copper]

my save is called Crack Cocaine

[rustic hare]

ew...

[dense violet]

well yo usaid compact. This is basically the least amoutn of belt and splitters you can do per manufacturer

[upper gale]

You can probably compact it further using clipped conveyor lifts

[dense violet]

compact and clean 🙂

[dense violet]

sushi at the bottom, making 10.6 frames per min in this group.

think ill use SCIM more from now on #screenshots message

[shrewd palm]

just a heads up the calculator on scim isnt very good

[dense violet]

it doesn't do any of hte loops very well, so careful with that

[shrewd palm]

better off with something like tools

[fresh copper]

k

(somehow i had half of a floor of constructors overclocked and half underclocked... both producing the same thing)

It's a lot better than what it used to be at least

[silk ocean]

There's probably tons of players that are getting misinformation

[silk ocean]

Not Fandom xD

[shrewd palm]

fandom is funny sometimes ngl

[limpid cairn]

iirc fandom is the biggest wiki site for mostly everything no?

not talking about satisfactory only

[upper gale]

For gaming, probably

Wiki.gg is getting more popular in general nowadays though

[shrewd palm]

with fandom i think anyone can edit it, although dont quote me on that

in my experience there is a ton of trolling/misinformation in fandom

[upbeat jacinth]

I was made aware of the fact that the birthday event didn't come with an entire MAM tree

Imagine instead of gifts there are pinata enemies that drop baking ingredients

[pulsar bobcat]

Guys i had a thought

Does the amount of energy the hub use appear on the graph

[cursive crane]

Not coffee stain making unhinged bundles on steam
#screenshots message

[cursive crane]

Hub doesn't use energy

[pulsar bobcat]

It should tho right

Would be a cool detail

[cursive crane]

If the generators are connected to the same grid, and you have something connected to them, then sure, but thats not the hub itself using power

[abstract heron]

Its a special day

[restive knot]

My birthday is on the 9th

[abstract heron]

its 1 year since 1.0

[restive knot]

ah so its the games day

[abstract heron]

1 year ago Tuesday September 10th 2024 1.0 was realsed

i still remember that coal bug when u always had to reload or BP bug

[restive knot]

If I had to remmeber every release day of every game I played from the top of my head thered be at least 1 a day lol

[abstract heron]

What Will they do for 1.0 1 year giveaways or if anything

[sick dragon]

The foundry is complete. It is now time to head to the swamp to take all the bauxite there and make it into aluminum

But first... bedtime

[abstract heron]

AFTER checking out the hub

[sick dragon]

Its still the 9th for me

I dont think it'll have a party yet lol

[abstract heron]

u got to wait 3hr or 2hr or 1hr

[sick dragon]

Sir it's 11 in the evening and I have work at 0600

[abstract heron]

gn then 🙂

[restive knot]

Just quit

[sick dragon]

Ill sneak a look when I power up my work machine lol

Perks of wfh

[limpid cairn]

great you have 4 more hours you can play before you need to sleep

[sick dragon]

I was gonna add the 4 nodes outside the swamp but because the oil nodes there is fully impure I'd have to import oil from elsewhere lol

[sick dragon]

Oh right what am I thinking drinks 5 hour energy

[cunning siren]

+6 Inventory slots or Steel Screws... OOoof hard choice

[rustic hare]

wdym you don't play until you have to go to work?

[smoky nimbus]

Inventory slots and completely eliminate screws with other alternates

[limpid cairn]

i usually have the game open while im sleeping to maximise efficiency

[sick dragon]

But what if I like getting screwed

I'll see myself out now

[rustic hare]

no just play the game until you have to go to work then sleep at the workplace

[limpid cairn]

I did that once and passed out in the middle of a somewhat important conference 🥴

[rustic hare]

how can any conference be as important as consuming crack overnight

[sick dragon]

You do have to fund the addiction

[limpid cairn]

Robbing the crack seller is an option tho

Like what is he gonna do? Call the cops?

[sick dragon]

Im not sure how im gonna rob the power company though tbh

[limpid cairn]

secretly tax power from you’re neighbours

[cunning siren]

Is Cast Screws better than default then? 🤔 Steel Screws + Sloopage + OC = Booooosh! 😆

[sick dragon]

Y u slooping screws

[cunning siren]

It's an option

Outside of the HUB party decor, is there any other b-day adddons?

[blissful nest]

Do you avoid using buffers altogether?

And what connections are there beyond whatever is needed to distribute the fluid?

[dense violet]

in general? buffers not handled properly will cause flow issues.
if handled properly? won't give any real benefit. So good to avoid them

and they've got connections between each pair of junctions between the manifold

oh, no I was wrong about the connections between junctions. Just very close

still not what I'd call a reliable set up

Guys I’m screwed

[wispy echo]

So I've been playing 1.1 for the first time in awhile, and as far as I can tell, there's no way to skip the seizure warnings and other startup screens? It's kind of annoying, having to sit here for what seems to be a hardcoded 20-30 seconds just waiting for the main menu to load

[dense violet]

... isn't it just there while the game loads itself?

mine loads much faster than that so I don't see the msg that long (at least I don't remember it being nearly that long)

[wispy echo]

idk, I just started playing 1.1 recently, last I tried it was in July

Maybe I just have too many mods lmao

[dense violet]

I'd guess that has something to do with extra load times xD

[limpid cairn]

If you don’t want that screen you can delete / replace the cutscene with a video from your choice

[dense violet]

I know it impacts my stellaris load times a lot

[wispy echo]

Yuuuup, but I can't play without my long Stellaris modlist, so I have to endure it

[dense violet]

just gigas does it relaly

[wispy echo]

That's one of like 80+ lol

[dense violet]

I have to make sure no vids are going on in the background otherwise my computer has a stroke loading stellaris >.>

[stray herald]

Why

[stray herald]

Have you figured it out yet? You should only need 3 as others said

[limpid cairn]

I Have to use screws

That’s why I’m screwed

[cunning siren]

The "Hold to Zipline" config option seems to not work?

[peak vine]

I’m so tired of making heavy module frames :

[cunning glade]

For trains do I need too worry about them going up for too long? Or just too steep?

[rustic hare]

molded beam + steel screws my beloved

[dense violet]

if youre tired of making HMFs, youre tired of life

[rustic hare]

only steepness matter for power consumption + speed from my experience

[cunning siren]

Those frames to heavy? 😆

[limpid cairn]

im considering using this instead of the cast screw recipe

[peak vine]

Best recipes alternate screws. Worst recipe water equals water.

[cunning glade]

I see cuz I have a train going up for a long time wanna make sure it's not an issue

[limpid cairn]

i want to use my excess iron for steel either way

[ashen belfry]

I really want to see your setup

[rustic hare]

just 3 constructors fill one whole mk5 belt lol, it's really good esp if you already got steel factory set up somewhere

[peak vine]

Yes and ADA keeps on roasting me because I kept on killing beans because they’re in my way

[limpid seal]

almost there

[peak vine]

Water doesn’t always need to be full. It needs to have at least significant enough to work.

[limpid seal]

new pipework almost done

i needed to put my ggens in standby so water could fill up

i need to blow up rocks

[cunning glade]

Is there no way too rotate things diagonally?

[sullen gull]

Place a foundation diagonally, or use a beam

Like so: #screenshots message

[crude cave]

Am I crazy, or does the explosive rebar not deal damage?

[cunning glade]

I think I figured it out cuz not quite what I meant but maybe I explained in correctly

[rigid glen]

What are you hitting?

[crude cave]

I was shooting one of those hatcher things. Turn out, it does do damage, but it's super weak and takes 3 shots

[rigid glen]

If you switch to regular rebar and crouch, you can two shot them with no defense

or crouch and just use the zapper, either one

[sullen gull]

Hard shell. Fyi, you can also approach them while crouched (on the ground or in the air) and they won't open.

[rigid glen]

Using the regular rebar is nice if you can see a bunch on tghe distance, just pew pew pew and they explode easy peasy

The big ones take 4 shots

[cunning glade]

There any way too nudge in smaller ways

[dense violet]

hold ctrl

[rigid glen]

ctrl+nudge, but some smaller items can't do those

[crude cave]

You can lock the hologram and then use arrow keys

[cunning glade]

That's what I'm doing ugh frick this seems annoying

[sullen gull]

You could get smaller nudge increments with Infinite Nudge Mod if you wanted.

[cunning glade]

I might need

[sullen gull]

Otherwise, "small nudge" is .5m

[limpid cairn]

youre using wet concrete right ?

[dense violet]

you can often use beams or pipes to slide items along them. or place them in awkward spots

[sullen gull]

What I just said a few lines back ... smh

[rustic hare]

yep

[cunning glade]

I'm trying too place pillars along the side of a ramp going up and some more close by

[rustic hare]

I basically have coastline factories producing pure/wet recipes lol

[dense violet]

nah, my coastlines are all sloppy/wet recipes

[cunning glade]

#screenshots i put a photo if anyone has suggestions

cuz nudging is not my strong spot ig

maybe i just need more control over it

[dense violet]

because their diamond shape you can't.

geometry forbids you

[rustic hare]

agree

[vague dune]

Uhm

Why is my hub a dance room?

[dense violet]

Party time

[rustic hare]

birthday!

[vague dune]

Hell yeah

[feral geyser]

i made a pipe loop that will have every single one of you hiring a hitman to deal with me

[sullen gull]

1.0 b-day today

[dense violet]

if you want seemless pillar corners you need to have the flat ends be turning

[cunning glade]

but like im so close too getting it too work

[dense violet]

you'll always have cornery bits sticking out clipping

[cunning siren]

Shatter rebar seems SUS AF

[stray herald]

About to unlock Ficsonium so IC an finally build a nuclear power plant

[feral geyser]

so many junctions and cross flows and valves

[lapis knot]

Happy Birthday 1.0 Satisfactory

[limpid seal]

im done now

[stray herald]

Because my perfectionism does't allow me to store waste 💔

[cunning glade]

discord is breaking cuz of gpu hardware acceleration love this

[rustic hare]

I wish there are logic controllers that you can wire to belt monitors/machines to send alerts whenever an event like too low of an efficiency or item throughput, serves as an early warning to partial failures

[cunning glade]

Need like a second GPU just for discord

[stray herald]

I wish we would just have 'lanes' we can add to roads so that trucks are actually usable like trains

[rustic hare]

just sink the plutonium rods

[stray herald]

What.

[cunning glade]

Fucking hate 4k sometimes

[stray herald]

You could dothat??????????????????????????????

[stray herald]

Sometimes my Discord goes all grey and stops rendering on my 2nd monitor because of the load LMAO

[cunning glade]

Love how pretty it is but like it uses 99% of my GPU so it breaks chrome and discord with GPU acceleration on

[sullen gull]

Or use them for drone fuel 😏

[rustic hare]

well you can build those with foundation, but what we need would be a signaling option

[dense violet]

...... you actually didn't know or are you trolling ?

[stray herald]

What again

I didn't know

[cunning glade]

Gonna use my 6900xt just for discord

[stray herald]

Is this true too?

[sullen gull]

yep

[stray herald]

No way

I actually can't believe it

[feral geyser]

nuclear drones flying around delivering death

[dense violet]

so there used to be only uranium rods and made permanent waste, but a lot of people didn't want to deal with permanent waste

so they specifically introduced plu rods to give you the option of sinking it

[stray herald]

My mind is blowing rn

[rustic hare]

I'm gonna be a menace and use uranium rods for drone fuel cause rocket fuel is already producing more than what I use

[stray herald]

I can have radioactive drones shipping animal meat to my protein factory?

[dense violet]

plu rods are also tied for fastest drone fuel

[stray herald]

Fastest as in best? What's the other, batteries?

[dense violet]

iodized fuel

[stray herald]

How did I not know that 💔

[cunning glade]

Okay setting up trains atleast tracks doesn't feel as bad as I thought it would with blueprints

[dense violet]

well the drones fly the fastest. So if that's 'best' then it's best

[feral geyser]

It's on the wiki

You just gotta go read it lol

[cunning glade]

Which means plastic time I think

[stray herald]

I think I looked at the plutonium waste and saw it was not sinkable, so I assumed the same for rods

[rustic hare]

dude unlocked ficsonium just so he could use nuclear power

[dense violet]

making 1 plu rod is about as much drone fuel as 250 batteries pm.

[stray herald]

I literally just spent tickets to buy the trigons

[feral geyser]

Well, the rods are an actual product, not a byproduct

[cunning glade]

So chat I have a question about how too know if my train will supply the factory enough

[rustic hare]

dude what's so hard about trigons that you have to buy them

[cunning glade]

My only worry

[stray herald]

I JUST unlocked them 10 minutes ago

To get to Ficsonium

[cunning glade]

Cuz ik I can have 21 refineries making plastic from just the bi product but will train travel time fuck that up

[stray herald]

So I can recycle plutonium

Because I didn't know about any of what y'all said in the past 5 minutes 😭

I have been torturing myself LMAO

[dense violet]

just do plu rods then 🙂 you'll save yourself a nightmare

[stray herald]

If you want you can turn the heavy oil residue into fuel and make electricity with it

[rustic hare]

theoretically it's max belt speed (2 belts) with a lil inefficiency during unloading, so about 1.5 belt per freight platform, assuming enough trains

[stray herald]

Chat am I cooked

[dense violet]

there's no numbers in your example, but a train system designed for it can move any number of items pm you like

[rustic hare]

just put more trains, or more freights if you need higher throughput

[cunning glade]

I have a plant making power producing the poly resin I think as a biproduct I'm gonna train that too a plastic factory too make just plastic

[dense violet]

why not make the plastic on location?

ship the plastic

[cunning glade]

Rather have the plastic in one location and train it around from there

Plus I prefer it too just be a power plant🤷

[dense violet]

but you could have the plastic in one location

shipped from the resin

[feral geyser]

It's more storage efficient on the trains to ship plastic vs resins

[cunning glade]

Yeah but that's another 21 refineries taking up space I don't really want it too

[dense violet]

mechanically it means you're shipping fewer parts per min

okie dokie

[crude cave]

I got crushed between the top of the world and the milestone rocket thing. Are my items gone forever?

[cunning glade]

Ik but this train is just for this bi product

[dense violet]

reload save, or use save editor

[cunning glade]

Idk man just how I planned too do it

[feral geyser]

No, but you have to play Only Up to get them, and you will need inhalers near the top.

[rustic hare]

if you want, you can convert resin to coal on site, craft filters with coal you likely already have going in from your fuel production to make masks, depot it and sink the excess

[feral geyser]

Resins to fabric, he means

[cunning glade]

I just wanna keep it simple with plastic in one place 💔

But I will do a small thing like that at some point

I think I'm missing something for it I don't remember

[crude cave]

I'll take that as a yes

[cunning glade]

Cuz I have a rubber plant and then plastic plant which will ship too computer plant and maybe hmf if it's need there which will train too main base for space ele stuff is my plan

[feral geyser]

Did you not see my response?

You can get them

[dense violet]

unless you do those 2 things

you could try to build a ladder to the stars?

[rustic hare]

currently I'm producing masks at my rocket fuel plant using the byproduct resins, and a dedicated plastic/rubber plant somewhere else, that's cleaner than trying to process the resin into plastic or rubber

[crude cave]

You said you would need inhalers, which means I will have to quickly grab the items. I'm really bad at that sort of thing

[dense violet]

I think world height is 2.7km

[cunning glade]

Is there a bi product with the resin into plastic?

[dense violet]

!wikisearch plastic

[fossil ice]

https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/index.php?search=plastic

[feral geyser]

I mean.... get better?

[cunning glade]

No it just needs water which is fine cuz the plastic plant is over top of water

[feral geyser]

I made a factory that makes all ammo types, all rebar types, all nobelisk types, both types of filters, and now, with mods, inhalers too.

[rustic hare]

nice, I only needed explosive rebar and cluster nobs

[feral geyser]

Turbo ammo?

Homing ammo?

[rustic hare]

nope, no rifle usage, I hate em

[feral geyser]

Wooooooww

Obviously not American

(teasing)

I always carry 2 rifle, never rebar

[rustic hare]

I know 🤣 ex.rebar is just way more fun to use

also useful during construction to boom boom terrain without having to pull out the nobs

[cunning glade]

Yk for trains being a long distance option u sure can't place tracks very far

[feral geyser]

But laying out a full stack of nobs and watching the whole det sequence is sooo satisfying

[feral geyser]

Farther than belts

[cunning glade]

Railroad track is too long like what💔

[rustic hare]

but max railroad track length is perfect for block signal spacing

[cunning glade]

Well rn my track is just going up in a long line so

[karmic flint]

Best way to use the bombs in the game, is to get rid of the stinky flowers and pillars and some radioactive animals.

[cunning glade]

I do want too turn it from a 1l into a 2lane at some point

[rustic hare]

wdym you aren't building a 2 lane railroad

[feral geyser]

Pulse nobelisk are very underwhelming, I'll agree with that

I feel like they should be stronger, kinda like Shockwaves in FN.

[crisp barn]

is it anniversary of the game?

[cunning glade]

This one just goes from my power plant too my plastic plant I do wanna split it into a 2l but so far I'm just getting it up and out of blue crater

[feral geyser]

Blue Crater oil is crazy, i have 2700/min each of plastic and rubber, plus a s#!+load of rocket fuel and others coming out of there

[cunning glade]

Very happy with the power plant I have 4 MK2 pipes I've maxed at 600 flow

I'm gonna pretend I'm doing that good

[feral geyser]

HOR + Diluted fuel + Recycled Plubber really does go hard

[peak wasp]

can I ask you guys a question

am I doing this coal generation right?

[stray herald]

Looks good!:D

[dense violet]

seems ok?

[stray herald]

Plastic and RUbber

[karmic flint]

Those pulse nobelisk are not good, though I'd maybe could try to use them to scare the animals away. Normal nobelisk's are better and gluster nobelisk's are good when you need to make away trough rock's (walls or those round rocks, witch may contains energy slugs or mercer's). 🙂

[dense violet]

it's often more covenient to make them in groups of 8 though

@dense violet How do I talk circles to you

also....ummm this is how I get water for my generators

[dense violet]

well you could just start about your appreciattion of them

or if you're wanting to designed curved factories I'm fairly knowledgable 🙂

[peak wasp]

is this fine to transfer water?

[stray herald]

Yes

[stray herald]

I like circles
I was solving a proof about circles the other day for a math course

In-game though? Absolute nightmare

Show us some of your work

[peak wasp]

and here is how I get my coal

its absolutely a stupid method but yeah

#screenshots message

meet....the highway

[stray herald]

Why not build immediately next to the coial nodes?

[feral geyser]

Yeah, it's fine as long as it's level and doesnt rise any more than 8 or 10 m.

[peak wasp]

because its on the small island

[feral geyser]

In general, it's better to build near the water so you don't have to pipe as far.

[peak wasp]

the pure node on the small island in the plains section

[karmic flint]

Uuh... Math... I hate it. But again I have learning disability that explains it a bit. But I'm willing to learn to play this game. Other parts too than exploring the environment and try to find recourses.

[feral geyser]

Most of the math in this game is proportions.
3/2 = 45/x
type of stuff

[stray herald]

@dense violet Is that the SAM ore i n the lake?

[feral geyser]

If you can do that, you're 75% of the way there

[dense violet]

Don't believe so?

[stray herald]

It looks insane

[dense violet]

go NW , find some coal next to water. you'll ahve a better time

[stray herald]

Let me show you my builds

[dense violet]

thanks!

The type of math I truly hate and are so bad at. Luckily I have a husband who is better at math than me. And he likes math. Me in the other hand, are more of visual and creative person. 😄

[feral geyser]

Then there is all sorts of building stuff to do as well, plus alien hunting and exploring, which is a nice challenge and helpful for advancement.

mk6 let's goo

[stray herald]

I need 20 calculators I can't keep up otherwise 😭

[peak wasp]

well most things in game its just / * + or -, no real logic behind that, only problem would be if you want to get into % and what-not, but its rare to do so especially if you don't build monster designs, for a "basic" gameplay you just need to do / or * alone

[stray herald]

It was for the ficsonium 💔

[rustic hare]

just need a shit load of coal and iron + sam to make mk6 belt, it's really easy

[karmic flint]

I know and I'm the one that does the exploring if and when me an my husband are going to play together. And I'm learning the building too. I just wanted to learn that. It's not that much different from Sims games, just bit more difficult and needs more thinking and patience that I try to learn too, even though it's bit hard because of adhd. 😄

[stray herald]

I am still gonna use it because I wasted all the potential time and effort to get it might as well use it

[dense violet]

you could try to do the architecture? there's a lot of neat ways to build cool buildings. Work together wit hthe math planning side of it

[rustic hare]

reworking my train system to employ a tiered distribution system, with more failsafes, higher throughput of items via more stations and slower belt speed...
the world will have 4 distribution hubs, one in the rocky deserts, one in the dunes, one in the plains and the last one near the swamp

[peak wasp]

depends on the type of adhd, i have it too but with satis it calms me down and makes me focus so hard on the factories lmao
i am glad i found out about this game back in 2020

[dense violet]

yeah my adhd focuses i non that

[stray herald]

Meanwhile I can't even properly manage 5 trains

[peak wasp]

plus if you ever need help with math you can ask in #math-and-meta and people will help in case your husband is busy or what-not

[peak wasp]

real

[rustic hare]

finding out trains and belt balancers have been my fun ever since

[feral geyser]

I like math

[lean flax]

I feel as though something special is going to happen today.

[rustic hare]

math is life

[karmic flint]

I'm not sure what type of adhd I have but I can super focus some stuff and get easily bored others. 😄 And it was my husband that make me interested on Satisfactory. 😄 And as said we usually do in satisfactory that I do the exploring and he does the building. But it was me who want to start to try to learn that too and I mean do the lines and stuff to get more resources. And now that I have played alone (if I'm not asking my husband to help) I have try to find as much landing pots as I can because that is free resources and some new items sometimes too. 🙂

[feral geyser]

My favorite fun math fact to share with my students is the mnemonic for π:
"May I have a large container of coffee, cream, and sugar?"

3.1415926535... and so on (count the letters)

[rustic hare]

without basic math I wouldn't have been able to figure out 4800m^3/min of rocket fuel can power a rectangular box of 12x12x8 fuel gens

[rugged ore]

erm basic math says thats not a cube

[feral geyser]

Listen, I'll allow it

It's a cube in the same way 57 is prime.

[rustic hare]

haha you are right, mb

[stray herald]

You can run up to 30 nuclear power plants with 600 uranium, and that needs 60 water extractors, How do you even begin to organize 60 pipes

[feral geyser]

In batches

[stray herald]

And that's before any reprocessing to run more nuclear plants for plutonium

[feral geyser]

Yeah, nuclear scares me.

Are there nuclear power planners out there?

[feral geyser]

Anyone of the various calculator people have linked here

[rustic hare]

10 wide, 6 tall

[feral geyser]

Or 4 groups of 3×5

[rustic hare]

am I a masochist for liking to watch manifolds fill up

[feral geyser]

Watching balancers is even better

[rustic hare]

yeah I love seeing the belt balancer under my stations work

[stray herald]

I usually use Satisfactory Calculator but it doesn't have much depth in its power planner compared to the production planner

I'll do things manually I guess

I get it though, there are many steps that can be omitted if one was to sink stuff or use it

I wish we could send GIFs in here

[leaden turret]

they've tried in the past but it's been demonstrably untrustworth to give the community that ability

[cunning glade]

Chat question I may have found a megaprint for a global train network and I low-key wanna use it cuz I don't really wanna build the tracks also I like how nice it looks good or bad idea

[stray herald]

I agree, Sadness

[stray herald]

You can do that! I personally built mine myself with some help from the Discord, I used blueprints, one for the tracks, one for support pillars

IDK how it'd work with your savefile though

[limpid cairn]

Let me guess, a shit ton of gore / nsfw gifs appeared in the chat?

[cunning glade]

Well I've loaded it onto my save file and pretty well tbh a couple of spots are a little wonky but I can adapt and I think edit it too fit my needs

[leaden turret]

plus generally people posting reaction gifs distrrupting the flow of conversation instead of using reaction emotes like a normal person

[cunning glade]

See this is what I was doing and I also kinda like but I feel like would consume alot of time I don't wanna spend building tracks ig

[rustic hare]

once a server gets big enough it's easy to see why it'd have gifs disabled and no voice channel

[cunning glade]

Major L I can't use emojis from other servers in here idk if cuz of perms or what

Or reactions

I'll go too react too something and can't cuz it's from another discord 💔

[leaden turret]

see also issue with nsfw emojis

[cunning glade]

I mean u could just ban the people that use those or only give access too them after being here for so long or typing enough

[stray herald]

ADA says only official, FICSIT approved emojis are allowed to be used by pioneers

[cunning glade]

I've never even heard of NSFW emojis so or thought of it

https://tenor.com/view/mapache-pedro-gif-7206648027763736533

I can't even do Pedro what

I hate everything now

I'm doing a dab cuz of that

[rustic hare]

well, that's when the size of the server comes in, with too many people and channels, it becomes really difficult to moderate like that

[cunning glade]

Well I'm in other big discords and it's not an issue so idk man💔

[rustic hare]

virtually any sizable discords I visited are like that

[stray herald]

I am in so many servers but I never really cared about it, mostly because I just join and forget the server exists

This is the only server I have ever been active on

And it's so fun

[cunning glade]

See I can't even this tbh on that

[stray herald]

Everyone is friendly, everyone helps each other

[leaden turret]

I almost find it hard to believe there's GIF spammers here xD

[cunning glade]

All the discords I'm in around this size aren't like this

[cunning glade]

Like that even tho u can't see it unless u click the link

Although I think I'm gonna keep the megaprint

[feral geyser]

Uh

[cunning glade]

Cuz I work in 4 hours and I wanna make more progress than just laying tracks

[stray herald]

Hear me out

Playthrough idea, tame all the doggos, finiish the game with only doggo items

[cunning glade]

I've thought about that

[feral geyser]

Possible???

Crash site items allowed too?

I do also use a tv as a monitor so maybe I can see more discord than other people

[fluid sapphire]

meanwhile im out here using OC alt, im planning to make 30 computers that i wont even be using for much of anything (yet)

[reef basin]

apparently you weren't here when it was enabled

[cunning glade]

21th may 2024

[stray herald]

I used Super-State

had to do it

[stray herald]

IDK, OC Supercomputer never spoke to me

[reef basin]

it would be weird if it did speak

[cunning glade]

I got this game March 5th 2022 I prolly joined within a month or 2 after that since this is my second account cuz my first one got hacked if mods can search for the original goodquestion that would be me but my account is numbers now last I checked

[fluid sapphire]

i like the simplicity of it, i can jam all of these into one spot and its enough to get me started, i can always make more later

is this connected?

[rustic hare]

infinite dismantle?

[rustic hare]

fr, when I started the game it felt like pain to make one modular frame, now I casually spam 32 of those machines

[limpid cairn]

Can you place a belt?

if no, it is connected

[orchid forge]

yea but its red

[rustic hare]

"this 8 smelters setup is gonna last me for a while"

mid game: proceed to make a 6k iron ingot plant

[cursive crane]

Put something through a storage on the other end for the recipe its running and see if the machine takes it

[limpid cairn]

then it’s not connected

[orchid forge]

alr let me see real quick

wait i might need power right

[cunning glade]

So let's say I did a megaprint for a world train network and now it takes a sec too load in what would cause that like CPU or SSD

[cursive crane]

Has to be powered on yes

[orchid forge]

wait im pretty far ill need to get biofeul

[cursive crane]

Should be ez to get. Otherwise just change the recipe and put something much simplier in

[spice patio]

Only the finest Finnish memetic warfare!

[fluid sapphire]

my friend who introduced me to the game, guiding me with coal power: so, how many coal generators do you think you should make?

me: idk, i was thinking like 3?

him: make 8

me: 8??? thats a lot

[rustic hare]

1 day later: places 16

[fluid sapphire]

literally though, i made it to coal power with 3 biomass burners

[rustic hare]

ayee same

[fluid sapphire]

coal power was really when the game sunk its hooks into me

[spice patio]

The perfect reaction image to any situation.

[rustic hare]

ikr, the first coal plant looks so good, and big compared to what you placed before

[orchid forge]

yea its not going through, not connected

[fluid sapphire]

it really does, it was my first screenshot xd, i will never forget, i was like wow that looks so fucking cool

[orchid forge]

this versatile framework factory is frying me

[lofty juniper]

do you guys know how i could make a sphere

[fluid sapphire]

it was only a year ago, its weirdly nostalgic

[lofty juniper]

its gotta be the size of a quarter of the map

[true mulch]

that'll explode your computer

[rustic hare]

prob inf nudge mod to allow rotation upwards and you just do every rotation starting from a set center

[solemn crystal]

Guys I accidentally put uranium into my conveyor belts and I forgot a hazmat suit
I can’t go near my factory anymore

[rich parrot]

For about two years...

[stray herald]

What tier are you?

You can either try to dismantle it from a far, or buy filtersfrom the shop

[rustic hare]

lmao, anyways, delete the belt and discard of the uranium ore that's in your inventory

[rich parrot]

You could try sinking all your belts that have uranium on them.

That way you won't have to delete anything.

[solemn crystal]

I accidentally put all of my uranium through 7 splitters while trying to take out my coal from the trail

Train

And then my filters evaporated

[steady hemlock]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY 🎂

[rich parrot]

Oh wow. Is it like spread all across your base, or just along the coal belts?

[solemn crystal]

Basically everywhere that’s coal(half my factory, alt recipes go brr)

[steady hemlock]

P.s we hate Ada xD

[rich parrot]

Just reload an autosave.

[solemn crystal]

Would be good if I didn’t disable them..

I have idea

[rich parrot]

Why on Earth did you disable them 😄

[solemn crystal]

I build new factory from scratch in the desert

[solemn crystal]

Lagspike when it happen

Aight I gotta head out now

I’ll solve this later

[rich parrot]

The tiniest of inconveniences. It saves you when an issue like this arises.

[fluid sapphire]

i should really change mine from 5 minutes to 10 minutes

every time auto save happens it sneaks up on me, game freezes and im like, damn didnt we do this like 2 minutes ago

[solemn crystal]

Exactly

Especially with big factory

At least I didn’t run it though the conveyor belt tornado

Imma actually go now call

[hasty lion]

Happy birthday to you, Happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Satisfactory, happy birthday to youuu

[stray herald]

You need 100 uranium waste to make 30 plutonium pellets, whick makes you 15 encased cells,, which gives 0.5 plutonium fuel rods per minute.. Wait I think I got it mid-typing

[cunning glade]

Trains speed scales with power yes?

Or like power consumption

[stray herald]

Power consumption scales with acceleration in my experience

[true mulch]

they take a lot of power when accelerating or going uphill

maintaining top speed on a level track doesn't cost much power over their base draw

[limpid cairn]

I wonder if the freight matters in the max speed range

[spice patio]

https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/Electric_Locomotive#Weights_and_forces

[cunning glade]

Chat am confused

[limpid cairn]

With freight I meant if it’s loaded or not and how much material is in the train is

[cunning glade]

I found a node of crude oil it looks like the Rocks are breakable but they no blow up

[spice patio]

It's all in that section.

[cunning glade]

It looks like alot of oil too so I'm confused

[limpid cairn]

does it say crude oil impure/normal/pure when you look at it?

[spice patio]

But in short, fill percentage in stacks of the freight car does affect force needed, and that affects acceleration etc.

[cunning glade]

Along those lines yeah

[limpid cairn]

Well, all I can say is git gud.
mind sending a screen into#screenshots ?

[cunning glade]

Sent

[peak wasp]

you need a pump for that

[lethal prawn]

need a resource well pressurizer for that one
oil extractor wont go on it

[cunning glade]

I see

Is there something I should use all this oil for

Or is oil just for plastic and rubber and fuel and power

Cuz that's quite a bit of oil idk if turning it all into plastic is a waste or not

[rustic hare]

diamonds

[lethal prawn]

idk what tier you're on now but you do use quite a considerable amount of oil later on,
plus you don't have the well pressurizer till later on in the tiers so idk if you could extract it yet or not

[cunning glade]

On phase 3 rn

Got it in that case I'll use the smaller node I think

That's what I was wondering I think turbofuel is one endgame thing idk yet tho

[lethal prawn]

ah, yeah its a bit later on then in the tiers

[cunning glade]

I have a smaller spot which has plenty of oil for plastic and I'll save this for later

[rustic hare]

rocket/ionized is the endgame, not turbo

[cunning glade]

I see but shhhh i try too keep myself from knowing as much endgame stuff as I can I wanna discover it for myself

[lethal prawn]

turbofuel is decent, there is a better alternative like rocketfuel which is heaps better
turbofuel can get you quite far tho
im using 600oil per minute to make 28000MW currently
(very small)

[cunning glade]

Hence why I had this game but never went very far till 1.0

[cunning glade]

I see neat

[lofty juniper]

how many uranium nodes are in the game?

[smoky forge]

3 impure 2 normal

[lofty juniper]

ty

[smoky forge]

2100

[cunning glade]

Chat coated cables or fuzed quartz crystal neither seem good

[vale grotto]

Leave the drive in the MAM until you want either one, you won't be able to roll those 2 for the next drive you scan, making it more likely you'll get one you want

But also depends on the tier

Coated cable for before tier 7, crystal for after

[half pasture]

anyone know how to get rid of the birthday music in the hub? it was cool at first, but after about 6 straight hours, now its just plain annoying!

Why is there a camera watching me?

[rustic hare]

[limpid cairn]

I don’t wanna use plastic or rubber in any of my recipes

😔

[rustic hare]

yes 🤣

[stray herald]

I try to minimize aluminum usage

[rustic hare]

why

[stray herald]

There seems to be some way to make tons of plastic and rubber by using the recycling recipes but I haven't gotten to it yet

[stray herald]

😭 It's beautiful

[rustic hare]

ikr

[limpid cairn]

Because i can’t use the oil for fuel then

[rustic hare]

but there's quite a damn lot of oil on this map

[limpid cairn]

Yeah and all of that oil needs to be turned into fuel

[rustic hare]

just how much power are you needing

[stray herald]

IDK if I've told you this or it was someone else, I recycle the heavy residue into fuel

It covers the plastic/ rubber costs while adding some additional power

Yup @rustic hare, that loop

Recursion in Satisfactory

[limpid cairn]

I turn that fuel into more plastic and rubber

[stray herald]

Go nuclear

[lethal prawn]

diluted fuel alternate
50 heavy oil residue/m + 100 water/m = 100 fuel/m
it is nice

[limpid cairn]

but, I don’t wanna deal with the waste

[stray herald]

✋ 🤚

[limpid cairn]

also I wanna use nuclear for my next play through

[rustic hare]

just 1200m^3/min of crude oil can gain you 288GW of power, isn't that enough? the map has 12600m^3/min of crude oil

[stray herald]

I just did some math, I can run 28 reactors. 18 with 600 uranium and 10 with the plutonium. Plutonium waste is at 25 per minute from these 10, and a stack is 500. So one industrial storage (48 stacts IIRC), can store the output for 16 in-game hours

[lethal prawn]

is that with rocketfuel?

[rustic hare]

yes

[lethal prawn]

because that sounds... very nice right now

[limpid cairn]

2280gw power sound better

it’s nice until you have to place down 5000 fuel gens

Rocket Fuel gives the same amount of energy like normal fuel

It just burns longer

😔

[dull flare]

what’s the best jett pack fuel

[stray herald]

prolly ionized

[limpid cairn]

Ionized fuel or liquid biofuel

[dull flare]

liquid biofuel?

[limpid cairn]

Lbf is good until you get ionized fuel

[dull flare]

better than turbo fuel?

[stray herald]

Biofuel is very good on the jetpack

[rustic hare]

a lil more thrust than normal fuel but lasts alot longer, imo rocket fuel is better than liquid biofuel, but it's subjective depending on your playstyle

[lethal prawn]

turbo fuel gives a lot of upwards momentum but doesnt last long

[limpid cairn]

It’s equal to turbo if not even better

[dull flare]

ah ok

there’s no way to automate lbf tho right?

[limpid cairn]

You reach the same height with lbf

[rustic hare]

rocket fuel is a shit ton of thrust with decent flight time, just tap the spacebar to control it

[dull flare]

also is fuel or turbo fuel better in fuel generators? and is turbo fuel even worth the effort?

[lethal prawn]

turbo

in gens is better

[limpid cairn]

Turbo is way better

[lethal prawn]

turbo fuel took me like half a day to setup a 30GW plant with enough to package on the side for personal use

[silk ocean]

Turbo but not so much Rocket xD

[limpid cairn]

How

[rustic hare]

I skipped turbo, went from normal fuel right to rocket fuel was worth the effort

[silk ocean]

Lots of Fuel Generators xD

My latest plant is 120GW xD

[stray herald]

Can I make it so one drone carries fuel to multiple drone ports?

[limpid cairn]

My plant is supposed to make 300gw but, I don’t have power shards😔

[silk ocean]

Alt recipe - make them xD

[lethal prawn]

turbo fuel is so easy
i used the blender alternate recipe which turns 50HOR+100Water into 100 Reg Fuel/M
place a few of those down and some compact coal and its all sweet

[limpid cairn]

I don’t have converters yet

I’m stuck with automating nuclear pasta

[silk ocean]

Time to go out into the world and get hard drives xD

[limpid cairn]

I don’t have converters ??

Hard drives don’t work

[silk ocean]

Converters?

[limpid cairn]

yes

You make power shards with them

Also I don’t have the quantum encoder

[feral geyser]

Not quite

[feral geyser]

Needed for time crystals for shards

[silk ocean]

Yes I have made a lot xD

Thousands

[stray herald]

Dude I just learned this and if my math is correct, you basically get the same amount of fuel from the alt as if you directly made fuel from the oil instead of the residue, just by adding some water? That's insane

[limpid cairn]

you can directly make fuel from oil?

[stray herald]

Yes

[lethal prawn]

yessir

[limpid cairn]

oh

[stray herald]

It's what I've been doing

[limpid cairn]

i always made the heavy oil residue recipe and crafted that into fuel

[stray herald]

But with this information, I can turn my fuel plant into a plastic factory because I get the same fuel ratio, so literally a free Power plant

Beautiful alt recipe @lethal prawn thank you

[limpid cairn]

small fun fact

[stray herald]

I do that for my plastic and rubber factories

[limpid cairn]

theres the exact alt recipe with just packaged water instead of normal water

[lethal prawn]

[stray herald]

LOL really

[limpid cairn]

diluted packaged fuel

you can unlock it earlier too

[silk ocean]

Not packaging again xD

[coral glacier]

I love drinking Heavy Oil Residue in the morning.

[limpid cairn]

packaging is good

[limpid cairn]

sounds like an average day in freedom

[coral glacier]

That's just what i drink in satisfactory

closest thing to coffee :)

[limpid cairn]

isnt there literally a coffee cup with unlimited coffee in the game?

[coral glacier]

It's not real coffee

[brittle hatch]

Its not coffee its cocoa

We need cola

[stray herald]

If only I put the same effort I put on Satisfactory in my lectures, I'd have graduated my entire degree in two semesters

[limpid cairn]

oil is close enough to cola

same colour, somewhat same consistency

[coral glacier]

I need a fusion reactor >:(

[limpid cairn]

taste is probably similar

[brittle hatch]

Probably

[coral glacier]

3x3 foundation occupance

[dull flare]

that’s not even real

[limpid cairn]

we all need something dont worry

[coral glacier]

It is real, it just can't be sustained just yet.

[dull flare]

u got fission reactors already

[dull flare]

and has a negative power output

[coral glacier]

Those produce gummy bears that make me sick.

[solemn crystal]

Guys I accidentally deleted my whole factory save

[coral glacier]

Again, they're still working on it.

[coral glacier]

Nooo

I save every 5 milliseconds

[limpid cairn]

didnt they found a way to make it work with using nuclear waste?

[solemn crystal]

I tried moving all my satisfactory files to my NAS but mid transfer power cut and now I just have corrupted 0s and 1s

[limpid cairn]

iirc if you shoot particles at nuclear waste you get trigunum or waht ever its name is and you can use that for fusion reactors

[solemn crystal]

[coral glacier]

I saw a yt short about it, sounds interesting. And if proved viable it would be great since they'd be able to use long-since stored waste.

[stray herald]

Steam cloud saves? Try them!

[solemn crystal]

I was direct connection to the nas while moving- oh yea that’s a good idea since it technically saved..

[limpid cairn]

its good yeah, just unlucky that my country (germany) decided its a good idea to dip out of the nuclear industry for shitty renewable energy(we are important a shit ton of energy from france btw)

[solemn crystal]

Well I always wanted to make a new factory because mine is only slightly laggy.. it was 10 FPS all the time while I look at my factory ;-;

Why do I hear paragraph

[coral glacier]

While that may be true, there is a possibility the waste can be transferred and handled by an oversite committee to a different country for re-processing ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[solemn crystal]

Wait how does this relate to satisfactory

[coral glacier]

But then again maybe not, just depends on who wants what done, and when

[coral glacier]

Nuclear power

[tame marlin]

when do we unlock the blender

[solemn crystal]

Ain’t it supposed to be in off topic

[dull flare]

tier 8 iirc

7/8

[solemn crystal]

7 when you get baxuite

[coral glacier]

That hurts, i need it now.

[solemn crystal]

I thonk

[silk ocean]

Anyone want to try my server xD

I was thinking about trying 31 players

[coral glacier]

I would play but spaghetti would rein supreme with an iron fist.

[silk ocean]

See if this poop can handle it

[coral glacier]

poop?

[solemn crystal]

What reigon

[silk ocean]

12600K with 24G xD

if youre looking for a group you can count me in 👀

[limpid cairn]

that only fixes the issue temporarily
