Easier to plan things out if you split them into adequate chunks
It's also fun how the different production lines match up together as you change numbers ^^

[dim cradle]

I wouldn't really say the numbers match up well here, I'm kind of forcing them to

[craggy vector]

Found my first alpha stinger

[ornate saffron]

To the PAIN!

[low tartan]

how many MW output do you make your coal power plants, out of curiosity.

[pine patrol]

are the alpha stingers the ones that are bigger than the player?

[craggy vector]

Yeah

[craggy vector]

Didn’t even try to fight it I JUST unlocked basic steel
Production

[pine patrol]

scary

[hard ivy]

whatever 32 gens make

[low tartan]

oh, 2400 MW

[ornate saffron]

i have zero coal gens... I didnt make any this save

[dim cradle]

I didn't really need nearly that many, but I also used a different coal generator setup from most people

[sharp basin]

@reef basin @ornate saffron Made PROGRESS tonight: spent 2 hours making an AI Limiter factory leading to a Sink. It’s a REAL spaghetti shit, I just wanted to understand the basics, you know, paper and pen. So with 1 MK2 Miner slightly overclocked mining caterium and coveying it through MK3 conveyors (because I understand NOW you should choose your conveyors DEPENDING on the machine and how fast its producing), 2 fully overclocked Smelters sending their caterium ingots to 3 constructors fully overclocked too and sending their Quickwires through MK3 conveyors, ANYWAY, stop about details, I’m figuring how the game works by MYSELF and I produce 25 AI Limiters/min that go DIRECTLY to the Sink. Overclocked machines do their work, zero waiting, chain’s working, work DONE. But SPAGHETTI done.

[low tartan]

i am not delighted with the layout of my coal plant

[dim cradle]

I guess most folks are using that 3/8 setup in the wiki, I use 2/6 with one of the extractors overclocked to 150

[low tartan]

the pipework is clipping the belts at the back

need to figure out how to avoid that

[dim cradle]

lol someone worried about clipping stares at my factory

[low tartan]

i try to avoid it 😄

but i just wanted the coal plant running

im also running the water intake things at 75%, so i am pretty sure my layout isnt optimal anyway

[ornate saffron]

sometimes you just need function over form

[low tartan]

yea, well it worked! I had to build it miles away from my factory and I was running out of iron plates so had to dismantle some foundations, so i have a few generators just floating on the water 😄

[wicked nacelle]

wouldn't the new spline thingy actually hurt cpu performance by having to recreate hit boxes when you enter new areas? I never had a ram issue but I do have a CPU issue

[craggy vector]

It doesn’t matter if it clips it just matters if you’re able to place it

[low tartan]

yea but im just odd about the clipping. I am pretty sure I can avoid clipping by either raising the belts or sticking in a pump in the pipework

actualy not sure about raising the belts cause not sure i can raise the splitter

[ornate saffron]

you can put a splitter ontop of a conveyor elevator

[wicked nacelle]

maybe it's too close to an input to get a belt down to it?

[steel kelp]

im about to build a world train network. Is there a way I can just make like a tower esque blueprint w rails on them that auto connect, and i can just freehand the curves and slopes w the auto connect

[mystic oriole]

don't fall for ADA's deception about complaining about screws being weaksauce, just do what you can and if you can build without them do so.

[median geyser]

On a semi-related note, is the dev still actively adding content and/or QoL? Even if its in the form of future DLC?

[hard ivy]

1.2 is planned for next year

[median geyser]

Amazing

[white dawn]

Yeah, v1.2 will be coming out probably in the first half of next year

And they apparently have a gameplan for what they're doing after that, though no information is yet public about that

(And information about v1.2 is quite scant as well)

[median geyser]

All good, Im happy to wait, just excited to know theres more to come

[mystic oriole]

What? A gameplan? Sounds like a road to Satisfactory 2.0

[white dawn]

there are 4 types of nucelar reactors that use water as a collant, those are RBMK,PWR,BWR, and SMR

[ornate saffron]

not here #off-topic-tech

[mystic oriole]

don't you worry, I don't mind reminders, because sometimes I truly forget, I did have a massive concussion like 6 years ago, lost a 1/3 of my memory and couldn't tell who was my wife or mom was standing there. Lost my trade.

[craggy vector]

Well, can’t build much without them, gotta make rotors for absolutely everything now

[mystic oriole]

when you get an alternate recipe to not use screws, jump on it.

Have you put down pipeline pumps

[autumn ravine]

A lot 😭

[mystic oriole]

I'm still at work.
but the problem could be that you need to redo the pipes between connectors.

[autumn ravine]

Ok

[mystic oriole]

pipline pumps are a must of course.

[mystic oriole]

that glitch can happen

[drowsy meteor]

it happen with my fuel gens😭

[mystic oriole]

can happen with any fluid

[mystic oriole]

I had one the other day. That replaces the geothermal with something more advanced.

[clear aspen]

my idea is adding fusion power

[craggy vector]

How about after uranium we used like a better approach at end game where we kinda like crush up leaves and wood and stuff and we burn them and it converts to energy

[clear aspen]

specifficly a tokamak fusion reactor

[mystic oriole]

Right, if we had a power plant that was on a geothermal spot, that required all advanced fuel types to run but gave massive gains it would be epic

[native tapir]

I just want windmills

I quit the game around phase 4 I think, and I want to try again and start over to get farther, any tips?

[median geyser]

Why'd you quit?

[robust brook]

Too hard

Got bored

[sterile blade]

Meanwhile, masochists long time pioneers: "what's the most complicated way I can do this...? "

[median geyser]

What got hard? When did it stop being fun and start being tedious

I don't ask to be a pest, but without knowing where you actually draw the line between the two, you'll just walk right over it again following the same progression

[lime steeple]

Try starting in an area with tons and tons of resources. Maybe go easier on yourself with a bit of spaghetti.

Dune desert is fantastic, expanding into the west beach for oil

[robust brook]

Yeah it started being tedious when I needed to things that took like 6 thousand recourses a min to make

Also I hate exploring cuz those goddamn spiders

[sullen gull]

Just because the space elevator says it needs a 1000 parts, doesn't mean that's how many you need to make per minute 😛

[robust brook]

I am terrified of them even in arachnophobia mode

[median geyser]

Arachnophobia mode 🙏

Oh lol

[sullen gull]

Yeah, unfortunately to can only completely disable via Advanced Game Settings.

[robust brook]

Ik but I want to be making enough that I don’t need to afk in the game for 3 hours to move on

[sullen gull]

🤷‍♂️ Use that time to decorate, clean up some things that had been on your mind while building the last thing...

[sterile blade]

Trying to make a factory to fill the space elevator in minutes within the factory booting up... is a good way to make "huge" factories (ie: burnout material :P)

[robust brook]

I usually make the building before the machines

[robust brook]

Not minutes but I want to be able to have it fill up in around an hour

[white dawn]

I've often wanted to graph out my own personal factory-build speed rate (which presumably is not linear with factory size) versus Elevator delivery goals

I tend to target 2-hour Elevator completions, but I often wonder where the actual "break-even" point is

[sterile blade]

If you plan a ~3 hour exploration trip after completing the factory for one space elevator, you'll probably strike a decent balance between factory size, time spent exploring and how many hard drives and other useful items you might have aviable for your next phase when you come back ^^

[wicked nacelle]

Like where you actually spend more time building than how long it would have just taken to finish without building more?

[white dawn]

Like the build-time difference between a 2-hour-delivery SE factory and a 4-hour-delivery SE factory for me is probably well over two hours (though that presumably depends on the parts in question, too)

[white dawn]

Yeah, exactly

[sterile blade]

So... six tens of minutes... very short :P
I mean, really, finishing space elevator deliveries within 1 hour is already challenge territory for most elevator phases

[sullen gull]

Oh, I am severely guilty of that 😛

[wicked nacelle]

I find just looking at the cool stuff in the mam is inventive enough to go explore.

[white dawn]

Too many factors to ever arrive at a "realistic" graph, of course, but it's something I often think about when building/planning SE factories, anyway. :P

[wicked nacelle]

Though the hoverpack is a good reason to just rush space elevator stuff. So… shrug

[robust brook]

One reason I quit was also making fuel power plants was such a hastle, I didn’t have much fun with it cuz it was very unreliable even when i overproduced oil for them

[north summit]

Mmmmmm col powr

Polut = fun

[robust brook]

I had to manually fill them up before I could run them or they would just never fully work

[wicked nacelle]

I eventually went packaged fuel and it is trivial to get 600/m flow rates with packagers/unpackagers. But then it killed my game until
Today when I turned down the belt draw distance stuff

[robust brook]

I was using packaged fuel

[wicked nacelle]

Also it’s super easy to do oil overflow if you package the oil and use a smart splitter. “Make as much rubber and plastic as I eat then burn the rest”

[robust brook]

Never unlocked those in the mam

[sullen gull]

I have found that it takes me two days to get a full RF factory going from a single Pure node.

[wicked nacelle]

With 250% unpackagers on a mk2 pipeline? I get perfect 600 flow down a bog standard manifold to fuel generators.

I never did get smooth flow hooking up blenders straight to the pipe that feeds the burners

[robust brook]

No I used 1 packager per refinery since they had the same rate

[wicked nacelle]

Yeah I guess that works too 🙂

[ionic gate]

how to get the output from a coal generator?

[sullen gull]

Connect it to a power pole

and that pole you your grid

[robust brook]

Yep

[dusty harbor]

i just realized i got online at 3:30... its now 7.

yo this game kidnaps you i swear

[ionic gate]

but now the coal generator is being charged

[robust brook]

What

[sullen gull]

Uhhh, by feeding it water and coal?

[robust brook]

How do you charge a coal generator

[ionic gate]

or it doesn't need electricity and the thing is opposite

[sullen gull]

!wikisearch cg

[raven axle]

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

[sullen gull]

The coal "Generator" creates electricity..

[ionic gate]

so it doesn't need electricity to work right?

[robust brook]

It does

To power the water pumps and miners

For the coal and water

[sullen gull]

Yes, to ... yeah. that

[ionic gate]

i made a bimass burner and connected it into coal generator

[robust brook]

I love batteries

Although I made like 100 and whenever I looked at it even from across the map it lagged my game so much

[eternal arrow]

Im new to the game, biomass burner does 30mw, if i have 3 miners, 2 smelters, and 1 constructor, it should be 27, why is my power grid shutting down?

[robust brook]

Power it with move fuel

Need fuel

Also all of that might be more than 27 mw

[eternal arrow]

Its filled with biomass

[robust brook]

I think that’s more than 27 mw

[eternal arrow]

Wait holy im dumb

☠️ I added a second constructor and forgot about it

[robust brook]

Oh

[median geyser]

So Im making modular blueprints for a conveyor bus. Supports of various sizes, stackable belt supports to fit those sizes, belts on stackable supports, etc.

When I built a bunch of belts and supports, I used a ton of RIP to make Mk2 belts. When I saved that BP and then loaded a different one to make a "right turn", it removed the belts I had built previously, but I wasnt refunded the materials?

Do I need to disassemble manually if I want to preserve parts between BPs?

[robust brook]

What’s rip

[sullen gull]

The materials should be in the box next to the computer

[median geyser]

Reinforced Iron Plates

[robust brook]

Oh

[median geyser]

oooooooh

I thought the bench was a single interactable unit

didnt realize there was a storage crate. tyvm

[sullen gull]

Nope, two things there 🙂

Also, if using the DD, be sure to check the box in your TAB menu that say "Take from Inventory Before Depot"

[ionic gate]

great, what if i have few coal generators, how can i connect them all in a single power line and it power my entire factory, or do i need to manage each coal generator output into few things?

[sullen gull]

Best to connect them all to a single grid

[ionic gate]

how to do so

[median geyser]

yeah I ticked that as soon as I unlocked it. DD is great, but inventory would clutter so fast if you were constantly disassebling and not pulling from invent 😟

[lime steeple]

I always have a separate grid running the coal miners and water pumps. If you lose power to pumps and miners you may have a hard time "kick starting" it again.

[ionic gate]

how to even connect all coal generator into same grid

[median geyser]

You run 1 wire off the back of the generators to a single post. Then you connect all those posts together

[lime steeple]

Very long wires and power poles

[ionic gate]

each coal generator gives 70mw, i want to connect them together so a single power line provide the combined coal generator mw

[median geyser]

#screenshots message This is an example, from my old biofuel at my starter base

[lime steeple]

You can connect your generator to a power pole and connect those power poles to each other. As long as you can follow the wires from one machine to another, they're on the same grid.

[ionic gate]

thx

[dim cradle]

#screenshots message I guess I'm either going to come back from the grocery store to find that I made a perfect loop of nuclear power with no waste or radiation, or it's going to be a radioactive wasteland with my power grid shut down because I miscalculated a water ratio somewhere.

Is there a way to build disassemble a bp Ive placed, but to filter ONLY for that bp, so I dont destroy a bunch of stuff around it with mass disassebly?

[hard ivy]

Dismantle mode to BP, dismantle filter on that BP

[wicked nacelle]

If you make screws on demand by the machines that use them they’re quite manageable

[dusty harbor]

It unlocks more unlocks. So eventually you run out of other stuff to do

[median geyser]

I dont see an option to change dismantle modes, is that a later unlock?

[hard ivy]

Though now that I wrote that, I'm not sure what will get filtered when you aim at a BP - the BP or the component of it you're looking at

[dusty harbor]

oh relax

[wicked nacelle]

If it’s an unlock it unlocks with BPs

[hard ivy]

or maybe don't write stuff completely unrelated to satisfactory in #satisfactory

[reef basin]

what's funny about it? 🤔

[dusty harbor]

i asked if i should play another game or play satisfactory. lowk dunno why i would call something "peak" in a games discord server if i wasnt already referring to it. yall acting like if i talk off topic the world ends.

[fervent sand]

isn't there another game called peak?

[median geyser]

There is definitely a game called Peak

[fervent sand]

yep there is

[median geyser]

Bro got so caught up in slang that he forgot some of the words he says are used by real people too 😂

[mystic oriole]

It's funny because I hate screws.

[sullen gull]

Why?

[hard ivy]

Because a game called Peak not only exists but is new and very popular

[hard ivy]

I hate them because the only good reason to use them is copper rotor 🤮

[sullen gull]

Nahh, sorry, I'll take 15/min RIP any day 😛

[hard ivy]

And waste both space, resources and power for no benefit? You do you ig

[dusty harbor]

definitely not "very popular". and again, why on earth would i bring up 2 insanely unrelated games in satisfactory's discord server, in the satisfactory channel. the term peak being used to describe something great or awesome is VERY common, however the game peak, peaked (no pun intended) months ago and is not at all particularly popular now.

[fervent sand]

fun fact, 1.7k sing cells /min requires bolted iron plates

[median geyser]

lmfao bro is still going on 🤡

[hard ivy]

Pretty sure I didn't optimize it for anything other than max sing cells so I wouldn't be so sure about calling it "required". Maybe it is, or maybe SF Optimizer just chose it because all 4 recipes gave the same sing cell output and the RIP recipe choice is irrelevant

[median geyser]

Your idea of what is common is heavily based on who you center yourself around. I almost never hear anyone use the term peak to descripe something's success outside of a handful of public discords I'm in, and even then, it's fairly rare. You are probably the most recent case since maybe a week or two.

[hard ivy]

Because people literally do exactly that every now and then?

[median geyser]

🍿

[fervent sand]

I agree with you on this, mostly. However, peak, describing something as very awesome, is an adjective. You used it as a noun, so I immediately thought of the game peak (never played it, only heard about it).

[sullen gull]

Exactly what resources am I wasting with Bolted Iron plate? As for space, so it's an extra couple either making iron rods, ingot, or beams ... And, it's always said "there is enough 'space'" in the game, soooo, how is it wasting space?

[dusty harbor]

I don't want to sound particularly corny here, but I spend a concerning amount of time on things like TikTok or Instagram, and the usage of the word "peak" to refer to something as good is insanely common. And I'm not really talking about niche subcultures using it but rather comment sections with tens of thousands of people commenting. it has an all time peak of 160k players active @ once which is relatively low for a game as popular as you and @hard ivy mentioned.

[sullen gull]

If anything, any other RIP requires 2x the amount of assemblers....

[wicked nacelle]

i use bolted plates because it's quicker per plate per constructor. I don't care if I'm wasting 5% more iron on it

[reef basin]

stitched plate needs less assemblers

[fervent sand]

and where I watch videos, with some getting millions of views, I rarely see it used

[wicked nacelle]

it's super convenient to use in a blueprint that just takes iron in and puts reinforced plates out

[median geyser]

"I spend a lot of time on TikTok or Instagram"

#satisfactory message Please see and actually process my previous message before further attempting to engage me in conversation. I am always open to a good debate, but I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.

[wicked nacelle]

among the ignorant, nuanced words often just become synonyms for "really" or "really good"

people hear them used in context and don't understand the context and think they're copying what they heard when they're not

when in truth the last thing english needs is more "really" and "good" synonyms

[sullen gull]

Umm, and how is that again? Bolted is 15/min, stitched is is only 5.625 /min... So, right off the bat, you need more than two to match one doing bolted...

[reef basin]

vs base RIP

[dusty harbor]

If that's your feed then that's fair, I'm just going off of what I see online. But I know there are many different things and communities with many different things going on in them online, so it makes sense for many people to not immediately understand my use of the word. So fair point.

[sullen gull]

Wasn't talking about base. Initially the convo began about the use of screws

[median geyser]

"Im assuming all of reality bends to the bubble I live within on Instagram" has got to be the best reason Ive seen yet to open a bottle of rum at 11am

[clear aspen]

hows everyones day?

[wicked nacelle]

yeah so bolted is 50 vs 36 screws per 3. but if you're making screws as you use them that's meaningless. The convenience of getting more per assembler is well worth it to me -- at the cost of iron ingot

[hard ivy]

It's more resources

[wicked nacelle]

yep, but that resource is iron ingot so IDGAF

[dusty harbor]

What? You said it's based on the people I center myself around. I'm using these comment sections with many people in them and acting as if they are the "people" I center myself around.

[wicked nacelle]

at that point there are many things I'll prioritize before I'm worrying about a small % of iron

[median geyser]

How much further can a power tower stretch cables, and is it worth using if Im going to be building conveyor lines to the same place?

[sullen gull]

Idk, with 10 constructors, two using alu beam, and the other 8 making steel screws, easy 4800\min screws 😛

[wicked nacelle]

I have blueprints that just use iron. Coal and aluminum become rare late game.

I just tile this blueprint until I have the number of RP I want

[hard ivy]

If you're making screws out of iron you aren't even saving space by using bolted. It only does that with steel screws

[lime steeple]

Man, that's amazing. I've never seen someone turn a small communication error into an argument in such short time.

[sullen gull]

I always just pull all the bauxite to one spot any more. 12,000 ingots ready and useable for whatever. The other 300 go towards trigons.

[sullen gull]

Welcome to the Internet? 😛

[hard ivy]

300 or 400 m? It's on the wiki

vs I think 100 of a regular pole

[wicked nacelle]

doesn't one cast screw constructor line up perfectly with a bolted plate assembler? I think it worked out pretty nice when I made the blueprint. I honestly don't remember now but the numbers at a galnce look like they work

[dusty harbor]

your argument is so bad it pains me. not once did i say that everything i see or do is the same thing everyone else sees and does. i literally just went over this here: #satisfactory message

maybe backread next time 💔

[hard ivy]

No lol. You need 5

[sullen gull]

🤷‍♂️ I never pay attention to it that way.

[median geyser]

And if you think for a second, you'll find you're in a situation where that assumption you are using is being met with opposition. Normally, this would lead one to question, or even realize, that there is a broader reality outside that limited assumption, and to reconsider events. Maybe even leading to a major development where they see how their choice of phrasing miscommunicated and was met with said resistance.

Or blandly defend themselves using their social media feeds as justification for poor communication abilities 🤷

[wicked nacelle]

yeah never mind.

[median geyser]

Either way, Im spending more time explaining personal developement to you than building these blueprints, so Im outtie ☮️ I hope you find fun in whatever you decide to do

[lime steeple]

@median geyser @dusty harbor Is this how y'all wanna spend your time? Arguing over a small communication error caused by a difference in social circles? Just correct the error and move on. Don't compound the error by also bickering over something so inconsequential.

[wicked nacelle]

yeah you're right -- I just remember it lined up nicely. 5 screw 5 plate 1 bolted plate https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/553550313533997057/1438693511993102437/image.png?ex=6917cf3e&is=69167dbe&hm=5e1b4098b8570cf4c53c5591a7ec2a31a3fe67d087dcb7efc298f5a2bab4d45a&

[dusty harbor]

You’re reading way too much into this. All I said was that I see the slang used a lot on TikTok/Instagram, that’s not me using my feeds as some grand justification, it’s just the context for why I used the word.
You jumped straight to condescension and acting like this is some deep philosophical debate when it really isn’t. If you actually want a conversation, cool. But talking like you’re delivering a lecture doesn’t make your point stronger, it just makes it harder to take you seriously. As I said earlier, I understand clearly that the world does not revolve around me and what I know, but you seemed to ignore that message so that your argument got across. Also it's funny how you chose to leave before actually settling an argument.

[dusty harbor]

hey man they bickered at me first. if someone wants to disagree with me and not expect an argument back then they shouldn't have disagreed.

[wicked nacelle]

probably one of you just let it go please

can we just talk about rampart?

[dusty harbor]

ah he ran away from the conversation anyway

[wicked nacelle]

good, he was the better man then

[median geyser]

rampart?

[wicked nacelle]

https://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/p9a1v/im_woody_harrelson_ama/ -- infamous AMA where he wouldn't answer questions about anything other than his movie... Rampart. Which to this day still no one has heard of a decade later

[sullen gull]

Oh, well, full circle, still best for #off-topic-general 😏

[median geyser]

😂

[dusty harbor]

ghosting the argument or just ignoring me would make him the better man. i argue that he just left because he didn't want to reply to someone who had a decent point 😭 but ill pull a frego and say im heading out too.

[wicked nacelle]

👻

[sullen gull]

Mentos, seriously man, no one cares. Move on. Play satisfactory, or whatever the other game was, or go watch some more ~~ brainrot~~ tiktok, or whatever else sparks your fancy.

[median geyser]

What are the pros/cons of moving oil 2km+ vs moving the plastic and fuel back 2km+ after processing?

[wicked nacelle]

plastic and rubber are great to set up train infrastructure for -- you're going to need them LOTS of places. That and aluminum make a TON of sense to ship refined products vs "ore" -- and then you don't have to deal with shipping liquids either

[reef basin]

why move it at all? process at location, put into depots

[median geyser]

Need a lot more mercer spheres for depots

[wicked nacelle]

once you start establishing a proper 2-rail highway system sharing resources becomes essentially trivial as you build new factories -- you just build a small extension and you ahve access to everything else on your rail system

[median geyser]

Only have 5 atm, and no upload upgrades

[wicked nacelle]

the reason is that you need it to BUILD stuff so you're going to have to move something somewhere. depots don't unload stuff

[median geyser]

Sorry 4 😂

Can I get trains before plastic? I assumed since trains were T6 that I would need materials from T5?

[fervent sand]

they do require plastic iirc

[wicked nacelle]

yeah and you'll need computers to make them useful, too

[median geyser]

ah, shit 😂 This is my first time touching it at all

[fervent sand]

oh it's computers

[median geyser]

Right, we process on location

[wicked nacelle]

I wish you could mark certain things as requiring some additional level of confirmation to destroy. just killed a drone port instead of a belt. That's a reload -- I have no clue what the drone port did or where it was tied to

[median geyser]

Now that Ive made BPs, how do I make sure they line up? Do you guys just start at your current base/destination and start slamming out foundations?

[wicked nacelle]

if you're tiling them then use blueprint autoconnect mode

and hold control I think?

they will snap to each other

[sharp basin]

My buildings are 20x6 foundations, like five stairs, and double that number since that’s 2 buildings face to face: is that too big for a first real factory well designed?

[wicked nacelle]

or just blueprint mode -- you don't need the autoconnect part

[sullen gull]

Lol, I have a bad habit of "catching things in the background" 😛

[wicked nacelle]

there's really no wrong way to do it so just see what you like and next time change what you don't 🙂

[sharp basin]

Fear of emptiness in these buildings

Or may be….

MORE MACHINES

[fervent sand]

no

[sharp basin]

I just need to unlock silica, can’t design a fucking thing without windows 🪟

[fervent sand]

if anything it might be a bit small

[sharp basin]

20x6, five stairs, and double that number?!

[fervent sand]

only 6 tiles is going to be a bit cramped

[sharp basin]

Couldn’t do more because of the special spot I chose

I’ll have to deal with it

[wicked nacelle]

@sharp basin if you want to get through this game at any pace at all, don't try to pretty up your early factories

[fervent sand]

fair terrain is a pain

[sharp basin]

I have 60 hours of factories like spaghettis man, I need some STRUCTURE in my alien life

[wicked nacelle]

@sharp basin here is one of my medium size factories: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/553550313533997057/1438700574311972884/image.png?ex=6917d5d2&is=69168452&hm=4876e858d2928a255317d6c6addeaa457d5c6c9fa65cbcc7f5f86b6340ac0899&

[weary stream]

whats a decent ammount of modular frames per second that would be able to see me through the rest of my playthrough?

i want my frame factory to look nice so i dont want to rebuild it

[wicked nacelle]

you just want to beat the story?

[sharp basin]

Yeah. That’s big. That’s your MEGA BASE?

[weary stream]

as of now yeah

[wicked nacelle]

you're not making enough

[wicked nacelle]

no that's 1 medium size factory

[wicked nacelle]

100? I dunno. I'd say that's a good number.

maybe get by with half that?

[weary stream]

100% not making enough right now but im saying i want to make a factory that looks like all of the frame types stacked on top of eachother
so i was wondering how many of each type of frame i should be making so that i know how big each floor needs to be

[wicked nacelle]

make a blueprint that you can just tile that just takes iron ingots in and spits out frames. Then just tile that blueprint down until it makes the right number.

[sharp basin]

Man, the factory I’m talking about is just for tier 4 - phase 2 products. That’s why I say I got plenty of room.

[median geyser]

#screenshots message uuuuuuuuuuh... i dont even have coal power yet... is that actually a fucking nuclear bomb? 😂

welp, forget oil power, im going far from home to see wtf this thing can do

[wicked nacelle]

play how you'd like but you'll be able to get MUCH more ore out of whatever you're using now so if you want to expand later you may be sad if you put a ton of time into it now. but do whatever is fun 🙂

[weary stream]

alr
should i half it with each additional frame recipie or is that unrealistic since ik the later ones get complex
like 100 modular
50 heavy
25 fused

10 pressure cubes

[wicked nacelle]

don't be too close but it's great for making friends if you're playing multiplayer 🙂 Play catch with the other dude

[wicked nacelle]

that was sort of my math for saying 100/m.

[sullen gull]

Here is one only doing Quickwire 😏 #screenshots message

[weary stream]

oh alr sweet thanks

[sharp basin]

I think I like the idea of having MULTIPLE factories. Not very, very big ones. I’m thinking trains will be happy about that.

[wicked nacelle]

I don't ever ship anything that builds out of iron/copper/coal/limestone -- I just build it on site because you can get that stuff anywhere. That's not entirely true I do ship some steel stuff sometimes, but generally that's my rule

[sharp basin]

That’s fucking cool man, I should try making round stuff

[fervent sand]

yea but what xaxxon showed would genuinely be connected to a rail network as a sub factory. I'd say it's on the larger end

[fervent sand]

don't until you have trains

[wicked nacelle]

There are both mods for building round stuff and also you can do it in SCIM

[median geyser]

How far back do I need to be, and will this leave lasting damage to an area, making it unviable for gathering from nearby nodes?

[wicked nacelle]

just medium distance. And yes. but it's not massive. it's big but... like it's just maybe half your screen if you're a normal distance away 🙂

[fervent sand]

Or: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLwyyYpe0c4

[wicked nacelle]

just save and then shoot it 🙂 and if yo'ure not happy with the resuilts then reload

[sharp basin]

PS5 player

[wicked nacelle]

STBY - for making round stuff at least 🙂

[dim cradle]

Just shoot it and then save

[wicked nacelle]

while it's in midair 🙂

[median geyser]

You can manually save?

[wicked nacelle]

and delete all your other saves

[dim cradle]

And there's a spider jumping at you

[fervent sand]

...yes?

[wicked nacelle]

that's what the "save game" option does?

question mark

[fervent sand]

and whilst in the swamp

[median geyser]

ngl... i have completely blinded those top 3 big options as header text and never processed them before. Just paused and unpaused hitting escape 😂

I was looking in manage session and server manager like "This guy said save... where the fuck did he... oh..."

[sharp basin]

I’m still trying to DEFINE what’s this first base is about. Finish up phase 2? Of course? Piling up tier 1-4 stuff? Yeah. Can it be more than that? (location is the stone arch in Grassy Fields)
I need different points of vue!

[dim cradle]

Sigh I knew this stupid blender would back up on water...

Oh well time to reload that save right before I connected the power to the first uranium fuel rod factory

[fervent sand]

connect it to a buffer and not worry about it

[dim cradle]

Oh I know what it was, I forgot I wasn't using all of the acid

so it wasn't going to use all of the return water

derp

[fervent sand]

can you send a screenshot of what it currently looks like?

[median geyser]

How do I change the type of explosive my detonator is "checking" for?

[fervent sand]

it'll trigger all

[sharp basin]

Doesn’t look like anything, just the starts of the foundations and structure (6x20, five stairs, double that number with the opposite building)

[median geyser]

Sure, but its currently telling me I have 0 base nobelisks and not letting me load the nuke to deploy it?

[wicked nacelle]

again, do what makes you happy, but let me tell you the game intentionally breaks everything you do early -- with complexity and scale.

[median geyser]

oh putting it in invent and re-quipping fixed

[fervent sand]

yea and I'm curious to see where you've placed them

[fathom void]

how do I connect my bio burner to my smelter?

[wicked nacelle]

the game intentionally says all that shit you did earlier? Yeah, it doesn't matter

[fervent sand]

power lines

[wicked nacelle]

power poles and power wire

[fathom void]

i use that but the wire is red

says no empty power line

[fervent sand]

what does it say?

[wicked nacelle]

power poles have a limited number of connections based on their mk-tier.

[hard ivy]

Holding R changes ammo (not just in nobelisks)

[wicked nacelle]

so you have to make another power pole and connect it to the power pole you have -- you'll have to remove a connection first

[sullen gull]

And machines can only have ONE connection

[fervent sand]

machines can only connect one line, you have to use power poles

[fathom void]

i have biomass burner to power pole to smelter

but can't connect to smelter\

[wicked nacelle]

so you'll go bioburner to a power pole -- from there to 2 constructors and another power pole -- from there 2 more constructors and another power pole

[wicked nacelle]

it's connected to something else -- delete that power wire

[fathom void]

ah oik

i had it connected to another smelter

[fervent sand]

that'd do it

[fathom void]

smelter - smelter

[sharp basin]

Project is: Grass Fields stone arch in the middle, two buildings facing each other with the stone arch between them. Bridges and corridors connecting the 2 buildings going though the stone arch. That’s the plan. Now I gotta build it, and understand what to do with it.

[wicked nacelle]

yes, for some dumb reason the game doesn't understand that you shouldn't be able to connect two input power terminals

you can also connect two bioburners together directly -- which also is nonsense

[fervent sand]

ye but I don't understand why they can only be 6 tiles wide

[sharp basin]

Because of the terrain around the arch, believe me

One of the 2 buildings has to be

So the 2nd too

But man, 20 foundations long is big right, it’ll make up for it

[dim cradle]

I think this game has successfully made me hate water

[wicked nacelle]

eventually you unlock tier2 power pole which is a HUGE upgrade -- instead of 2 useful connections you get 5 -- so over double

[median geyser]

#screenshots message Would this quantify as medium distance? Its on that rock ledge at the bottom of the map 😂 Ive learned that my sense of scale pales in comparison to you more advanced players

[wicked nacelle]

no no you want to see it go boom - don't throw it over the edge. just toss it off a medium cliff or something. --- not even that high

[median geyser]

sooo... top of waterfall?

[wicked nacelle]

it's NOT that big of a boom

and just save before you throw it 🙂 it's cool

[median geyser]

idk man i read nuke and think of a city 😂

[fervent sand]

it's not that big

[wicked nacelle]

it's not. Like.. it's the size of those big dinosaur things

the flea tick ant giraffe things. maybe two

[fervent sand]

it's two

[sharp basin]

And it WILL be a little bigger: stairs on each side, pillars around the buildings, stuff like that

[sullen gull]

Nuke?: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/553550313533997057/1415478888565440634/Screenshot_20250910-192722.png?ex=6917baf1&is=69166971&hm=a7737060b2ed95d494d091fa516b233bb9da12259f69a3769b5d61cdcef0e73e

[pine patrol]

#screenshots message good luck

[median geyser]

uuhhhhh right clicking isnt setting off the bomb

[wicked nacelle]

you have to be standing on top of it for it to work I think

[sharp basin]

I’ll show you more when I’ve started. I need more coupons. Can’t design a anything without options in mind.

[median geyser]

i moved onto the ledge in the screeshot, im just way at the back of it near the waterfall... can I shoot it to remote detonate?

[dim cradle]

xaxxon really wants to get someone killed

[sharp basin]

My Sink factory is going well but not as optimized as I thought it was. Miscalculations.

[sullen gull]

You can hold your click to throw it

[median geyser]

i am like tops 20m away from this thing and it wont explode

[median geyser]

its on ground, detonator no boom

[wicked nacelle]

did you save? reload and try again?

[sullen gull]

Do they have to be unlocked to splode?

[dim cradle]

... I think if you reload it'll just blow up btw

[wicked nacelle]

I've never heard that.. but I've never tried

[dim cradle]

at least my nobelisks do lol

[sullen gull]

Same.

[median geyser]

:sadge:

[sullen gull]

Was just wondering

[wicked nacelle]

nah you can have multiple nobelisk types out at once

[median geyser]

Man some day

[dim cradle]

lol this percentage it calculated, 224.9917%

[median geyser]

im gonna unlock nukes

[wicked nacelle]

I suggest reloding before it chagnes its mind while you're standing on it

[median geyser]

and part of my map is just gonna start glowing 😂

[sharp basin]

Not producing enough copper sheets.

I was good with quickwire though.

[median geyser]

Fixed it 💥

That was... much better than you said. You bastard 😂

[dim cradle]

Does one detonator work for all nobelisks btw

[median geyser]

Seems so, i went from starter nob to nuke on the base deto

The problem was that I died after placing it, and when I respawned, the detonator had "re-attuned" to the base nob. Since I only have 1 nuke, I couldnt swap it back to check for nukes, and it wouldnt detonate

[dim cradle]

I've only ever used the starter nobs in this game

[tribal hearth]

the factory must grow

[dim cradle]

Made one factory at the beginning of the game and it's been supplying all my murder ever since

[median geyser]

Reloading put the nuke back in invent, so I attuned it again, and just tossed it into a void and hit kaboom

[wicked nacelle]

They're really the best. They do what you need them to do and no more. I actually wish there was a "micro nobe" that only affected what it was attached to

[median geyser]

Is there a way to reduce the fog when you get into low areas?

[dim cradle]

I've also made no other weapons in general lol

just using starter nobs for everything

[sullen gull]

You hit ~ and type r.fog 0

[dim cradle]

everything died a slow and excruciating death

[median geyser]

oh my god the game just got so much prettier. tyvm

[fathom void]

how to go to config?

[sullen gull]

Which config?

[fathom void]

to do this

[pine patrol]

Can someone explain train signals i have seen multiple videos and it doesnt make sense 😔

[fathom void]

oh nvm i see it

[sullen gull]

Not sure if on console, but on PC you hit the ~ key

[median geyser]

how far down into the fog is the killbox?

[sullen gull]

Sounds like some ladder time 😛

[fathom void]

any other cool configs i could do?

that fog setting was reallyt nice

[sullen gull]

Oh, and if you havn't make a ladder to the death box in the sky 😏

[sullen gull]

There are some that one can do for better 'lumen', at the expense of performance of course.

[sharp basin]

@wicked nacelle I’m still gonna try that model in my buildings, you know, chain more and more complex the more you go upstairs, with everything going up, and final products at fifth stair. That way I can add as many smelters/constructors/assemblers as I need to, even in a 20x6 space. Like smelters base level, constructors 1st and 2nd level, assemblers/foundries above. Using conveyor lifts, everything goes up, and it’s quite simplified. Right?

[median geyser]

What would this be? Im currently running on near-max i think, so im curious as to what else I can tweak.

Also, is there anything for level of detail?

[wicked nacelle]

yeah sort of, except smelters kinda get replaced with MUCH MUCH bigger buildings if you want to maximize ore efficiency... so go do your thing but just don't cry later 🙂

[sullen gull]

This is what I am currently using:

r.AOGlobalDistanceField.MinMeshSDFRadius=1
r.AOGlobalDistanceField.MinMeshSDFRadiusInVoxels=0.3
r.TemporalAACurrentFrameWeight=0
r.TemporalAASamples=32
r.PostProcessAAQuality=5
r.ToneMapper.Sharpen=1
r.ViewDistanceScale=5
r.Shadow.MinResolution=256
foliage.LODDistanceScale=2
foliage.DitheredLOD=5
r.MaxAnisotropy=16

Placed in the Engine.ini

[median geyser]

Will any of those affect water? I see foliage LOD

[sullen gull]

There may be some, but I am not sure of them. I believe the Wiki has a list

!wikisearch console+commands

[raven axle]

https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/index.php?search=console+commands

[sharp basin]

More efficient smelters later?

[dim cradle]

Hmm they're kind of underselling how radioactive ficsonium power cells are...

[sullen gull]

How far are you?

[sharp basin]

Tier 4

[dim cradle]

Basically you can use an alt recipe called "Pure <Insert Ingot here>" later

you make it in refineries with water and the ore

At the expensive, you know, refineries.

Also some other recipes that mix ore types

[sullen gull]

Ahh, you'll get the building they are referring too in T5

[dim cradle]

Well there you go, I did it, I built a full nuclear loop without a hazmat suit

[sharp basin]

Question: 1 node is enough for any products? I mean, if I need like 1 copper node and 1 caterium node, I can still go mass produce everything I need necessiting only iron and copper?

[median geyser]

Do these exceed the in-game sliders?

[dim cradle]

Now you can crown me

[sullen gull]

Yes

The first two are special commands outside of the normal options

[dim cradle]

Holy heck though, those ficsonium fuel rods are radioactive as heck.

Dang thing's inside the nuclear burner and still hurts anywhere close to the building...

[steel kelp]

Why can i only connect my train track blueprints such a short distance?

[sharp basin]

@sullen gull because I feel 1 pure node can feed a LONG and COMPLEX chain on its own, you know what I mean?

[dim cradle]

I'd say no, not when you get into late game

[sullen gull]

It very well can. Depending on the numbers you are trying to achieve of course.

[sharp basin]

Speaking tier 4 of course

[dim cradle]

Oh right now? Yeah if you overclock the heck out of it and squeeze every drop out of it, maybe

[sharp basin]

I mean, sustainable numbers

[north summit]

Gem or Coal chat

[dim cradle]

But if you're going to go for a low node challenge you want to use pure recipes

[sullen gull]

What contsatutes as "sustainable" to you? 😏

@sharp basin

[sharp basin]

Yeah I already overclock my impure nodes, but I only have MK3 conveyors so….

[sharp basin]

Enough

[dim cradle]

like enough for what...

[sharp basin]

Enough for advancing through phases first

[dim cradle]

Technically you can complete all of the phases in the game just by putting one one dinky underfed factory and leaving it on all night

So almost anything is technically enough

[wild kindle]

does anyone know any future roadmaps like if theres ever gonna be a tier 10?

[dim cradle]

Unfortunately the answer as to whether one node of each type is enough for you depends on how you build

But... hmm... Honestly yeah I think you could get through most phases just with 1 pure node if you tried hard enough.

[sharp basin]

You know what? I need to try stuff. i’ll try that « everything goes up floor » method and see. If it’s not the best, next factory will be BETTER.

[dim cradle]

You'd have to set up crap tons of refineries though to use the pure ingot recipes I think

The pure ingot recipes take up a lot of space but they're insanely efficient on the ore

[sullen gull]

Technically, for iron ingots, leeched is the "highest return" at the expense of sulfur, but MUCH less water. 2400 from leeched, 228.57 with Pure alt

From one pure node that is

[dim cradle]

Sulfur feels kind of rare to me, never messed with those recipes

[sharp basin]

It will be more than that. Around 2/3 nodes per ore for my 1st factory.

[dim cradle]

Well multiple pure nodes then sure, especially if you bothered upgrading the belt and miner every time

[median geyser]

#screenshots message Thoughts on this location for my first "real" factory, with busses and proper assembly lines and floors and decor

[sharp basin]

I use different belts depending on the products/min, on each machine, each stage of the chain. I go with the flow. I decided to play without calculators.

[median geyser]

why bring your own calculator? Press N any time and throw a simple equation into the search bar, like 270/15, and itll spit back what you need to know

[sullen gull]

Honestly, best bet is to work on going through the first save but making one machines worth of end items, so that you can learn the production chains. Because, chances are. you'll learn something along the way you wish you knew earlier when making large builds

[dim cradle]

That's fine, you could technically get by for mk1 belts for a lot of things since they're so low yield

I usually just start using whichever belt material I'm mass producing.

[sharp basin]

Exactly, like for smelters

[dim cradle]

Which is all of them...

[dim cradle]

Smelters is a weird example, if you have a smelter line they should be making a heck of a lot

[sullen gull]

I don't like the in game calc for most things as it doesn't have a "history". Or an ability to "hit enter and progress from the answer" type of thing.

[sharp basin]

I don’t have the numbers right now, but caterium was SLOW.

[sullen gull]

for quick single op math, it's great

[dim cradle]

Yes Caterium is low yield

I do most of it either in my head or I alt tab and do it in the search engine lmao

It's sitting there bringing up random crap related to the numbers

[sharp basin]

I used MK2 belts, could have used MK1

[median geyser]

I do still have my starter base, solid biofuel power plant (its offgrid and just a relic now, but its there and functional), my coal generators, etc. Do you suggest I just keep going with that, or did you think this was where I was going to put my starter base 😂

[dim cradle]

Caterium is one that I bothered to make a pure refinery line for

You'll be using a lot of quickwire later

[sharp basin]

I did it, but spaghetti style, planning to redo the same system in my 1st building.

[sullen gull]

Hard for me to answer that one since I don't follow the mentality of a "starter base" and adding on to it. Once I progress, I will build multiple different factories across the map. Many times, just remaking "base" items on site.

[dim cradle]

Hmm... well unfortunately despite me perfectly tuning the waste disposal and uranium/plutonium/ficsonium fuel rod usage, this isn't quite perfect, there's a bit of radioactivity near the buildings and a little off-cycle because of the low yield of the products...

Oh well

[sharp basin]

And for now quickwire is only to make IA stuff that goes to the sink directly.

[clear aspen]

chat bna is so peak

[dim cradle]

I wouldn't bother redoing anything, just leave it and build on top

[sharp basin]

You can’t imagine the spaghetti level man

Everything that’s ugly is gonna GO, that’s it

[median geyser]

Ah. That is the stage Im currently at. Im moving into steel and oil and trains and the like, so Im planning to "remake" my iron/copper/other basic material lines in a cleaner fashion, all in a large factory, and that will also give me a place to expand on later

[sharp basin]

I’ll replace EVERYTHING

[dim cradle]

Nah man I embraced my spaghetti #screenshots message

And it's even more spaghetti after I set this up this nuclear end to end factory #screenshots message

I wrangled my noodles

Maybe just me tho I don't really get why some people say to spread out, I guess it's a personal thing. I found it much easier to just have everything in one spot and bring it there

[sullen gull]

In that regard, I am a huge fan of the "logistics floor" 😏 Kinda like this: #screenshots message

[sharp basin]

Yeah you seem like a spaghetti man

[dim cradle]

But my lines always made more than I needed for whatever I was using them for, so it lets me send resources to other lines

like I'm using my encased beam thing from like... phase whatever.. after phase 5 lol

[median geyser]

#screenshots message See I feel like my first base is a spaghetti mess 😂

[shy mulch]

You can see most of your logistics floor in one go, I can't say that about mine 😛

[dim cradle]

It's more like you can see the entire logistics floor

except the stuff I put in the desert

[sullen gull]

I can't lie, it wasn't always that way lol.

[dim cradle]

Oh you were talking about someone else's

[sullen gull]

That's the logistics floor of total baux factory 😛

[sharp basin]

My 1st base is MUCH WORSE

That’s why I’m telling you: REDO EVERYTHING

[dim cradle]

My first (and only) base is probably worse

[median geyser]

To be fair, I followed a few basic guides on youtube to set up better condensed assembly lines. Once I figured out and understood the progression of making a given material, I skipped the 10h of trying to flatpack it down into the smallest space possible, and hit the 6y old youtube guides

[sharp basin]

Gotta go to sleep, this game + discord is eating up my WHOLE LIFE, spaghettis everywhere

[sharp basin]

Send me some good ones bro

[dim cradle]

This is odd though, between those two water pumps and the blender that's turning the uranium waste into non fissile uranium, this should be providing exactly 450 for this power plant

but it's only at 96%....

Oh well, maybe it just takes a long time to stabilize a nuclear cycle

[median geyser]

uh, theres this british game, infinite something, Ive been following a lot. Next time I look one up, ill DM you the link

[potent ether]

Guys. Can I get a quick check for me so I can do some maths??

[dim cradle]

Oh, I knew something was off here, I was producing 2.5 plutonium waste per nuclear plant, not 5

Where the heck did I get 5 each from

welp tear down one ficsonium nuclear plant lol

[potent ether]

What is the amount of packaged water used in a fully overclocked refinery in dilueted packaged fuel alt?

As trying to work out how much packaged water per minute I need to make

[shrewd palm]

you can just check how much you need in the machine

[potent ether]

I'm not at my pc rn. What's why I'm asking here ahaha

[shrewd palm]

ahh

[potent ether]

Yeah

[shrewd palm]

might be able to find something on the wiki, i dont know off the top of my head

[dim cradle]

I did it though.

Clearly better than the average ape

This is the first time my production has been higher than my consumption in such a long time 😭

doing nothing but geo and sloop is like living life on the edge

[steel kelp]

Building a railway around the map is actually so easy wtf

[shy mulch]

Depends how you do it, if you make it fairly simple and use a lot of blueprints then yes

[kindred hinge]

My friend is about to start crying because of the amount of math he had to do to optimize a factory 😊

[shrewd palm]

first time?

[dim cradle]

You mean like... addition, subtraction and division

[shrewd palm]

you could probably find a use for calculus if you tried hard enough

[dim cradle]

but not multiplication

I'm sure you can do DiffEq if you wanted to model the population of the wild animals in the area

[shrewd palm]

maybe

when i was first learning calculus my mind was blown

like why did they save this until grade 12

[dim cradle]

Shrug the rules of it are simple for the most part, then they start getting into laplace transforms for difficult integrals and then they add in multi dimension integrals so you can do stuff like amperian loops and gaussian surfaces

Then you start learning about transcendental equations and runge kutta because you're too tehe bonk to do them

[shrewd palm]

i wanted to do integrals but i think they took that out

so in highschool its basically just derivitives + applications where i am

later stuff is either self taught or in uni/college

[dim cradle]

I took AP calc at my high school but that was a very long time ago. I remember not studying for the AP test for it and still making a 5 somehow even though I couldn't solve one of the last problems or two in time

Teacher also didn't teach us integration by parts which I needed when I started at calc 2 in college...

but not hard to pick up anyway...

so you got no college prep courses?

Or are you saying they teach calculus for grade 12 without any ap courses...

I guess every generation is getting smarter then, except the one that's using AI to solve all the problems anyway

Soon you'll have to start telling everyone to take off their glasses for inspection before a test lol

[shrewd palm]

im in canada so its a little different than the US

[dim cradle]

I met some IB people at GAtech, they were hella smart all of em

[shrewd palm]

we have locally developed (for those that are developmentaly challenged), applied (college/workforce level) and then academic (university prep pretty much)

i was taking academic the whole way through and was struggling for grade 11/12 but locked in on the exams for grade 12 and things worked out

on the calc exam we all had to make questions for it and my friend made one about me having a receding hairline that got put on so theres that 💀

im going into aviation so im not sure how much of this im going to need beyond some fairly basic trig and maybe calculus

[dim cradle]

We played Mario Kart on the projector in class while studying for the AP test

[shrewd palm]

lmao

[median geyser]

Is it worth going down the turbofuel MAM unlocks? Or should I spend the hard drives on alt recipes?

[feral geyser]

Lmk if you want math tutoring

[feral geyser]

There's enough for all of it

[shrewd palm]

one of the teachers i had for a few classes didnt do exams so he let some people bring in a switch or something and we got the whole class on smash and mario kart

[feral geyser]

The sulfur chain only needs 2

[shrewd palm]

i am DONE with math for now that was rough

[median geyser]

Is it worth prioritizing over early alt recipes tho?

[feral geyser]

I mean, sure, yeah

[dim cradle]

I feel like we're about to get bonked for going way off topic soon though

[feral geyser]

Rocket fuel is nice

[kindred hinge]

I’m in AP precalc now and it’s relatively easy. Except for slant asymptotes….

[median geyser]

oh is that whats after turbo?

[feral geyser]

Yes

[shrewd palm]

ionized

[feral geyser]

After rocket

[shrewd palm]

wait i cant read

you can see why i struggled now

[feral geyser]

Just do division, the asymptote is the quotient part.

[shrewd palm]

would they teach that in precalc?

[feral geyser]

Yes

[shrewd palm]

i dont think long division to find asymptotes and stuff was taught to me until 12th grade math

well i guess thats what pre calc would be

[feral geyser]

Some people take precalc in 12th, others in 11th or 10th

Depends on your program

[shrewd palm]

where i am the earliest you can take a course like that is 11th i thin

[feral geyser]

I took it in 11th and didn't take math senior year

[shrewd palm]

and thats if you were locked in on math for the previous years

[feral geyser]

I actually failed calc the first time I took it in college

Then I had it again, and that professor had a focus in algebraic geometry, so it made so much more sense

[shrewd palm]

you might be able to take it in 10th if you were really smart but the electives arent very flexible during 10th grade

[feral geyser]

Mind you, I took 5 years to go to college after HS

[shrewd palm]

iirc you only get 2

[feral geyser]

So was out of practice

[shrewd palm]

fair enough

[feral geyser]

But now, math is life

[steel kelp]

Ive done half the map in 30 minutes

Im just out of steel beams

[shrewd palm]

ive been out of school for like 5 months now and it feels like ive forgotten most of the stuff i did

[feral geyser]

My student tonight was learning polynomial division and synthetic division, so I got to show her the remainder theorem.

[shrewd palm]

even my writing has gone back from passable to kindergarten levels

[feral geyser]

Also the IVT

[shrewd palm]

oddly enough i dont think synthetic division is in the curriculum as a thing that has to be taught for me

like if you learn from online or a tutor or something the teachers wont dock marks but its not something they have to teach

[wicked nacelle]

It’s only useful as a guess and check factoring method

[feral geyser]

It's basically just a shortcut method of doing division by linear factors

[feral geyser]

Not exactly

But kinda

[shrewd palm]

at the very least its a hell of a lot faster than long division

[wicked nacelle]

Or if you’re given a root. Which is just so contrived

[feral geyser]

I mean, RRT is a thing too

And you can use IVT while doing synthetic division to help narrow down the search space

One of my other students is doing a lesson called Linear Programming. Which is basically solving linear inequalities with constraints and optimization, and I got to translate a Satisfactory problem into their language 😭

[shrewd palm]

you should tell them to go play satisfactory as homework or something

[feral geyser]

FOR REAL

[dim cradle]

Never actually heard of synthetic divison

Don't remember being taught that lol

Guess engineering school didn't think much of it or I just forgot it.

[feral geyser]

It's usually an "extra" that they'll teach if they have time

[shrewd palm]

its just faster long division

[dim cradle]

Welp all 4 of these nuclear plants are at 100% efficiency I guess that's fully done.

[feral geyser]

Nice 🫡

[dim cradle]

stupid water issue early on, grr water

[feral geyser]

I'd react, but you blocked me 😒

[dim cradle]

RN it's basically 1 187.5% uranium plant, 2x 250% plutonium, and 1x 250% ficsonium

Seems to be the good ratio

pain to set up but no waste and made quite a bit of power

[feral geyser]

Hell yeah, no waste is the way to go

I haven't even bothered with nuclear, cuz nitro rocket fuel is quite lucrative.

I can build gens 3 at a time with pipes and cables, so it's not a slog.

[dim cradle]

Oh I forgot I did do that because I made a ublock filter to hide any of those notifications.

Well that was a while ago so I'll let it go.

[feral geyser]

Now I just have to convince Cobalt to unblock me 🙏

Lmao

Fat chance with that one though.

[fervent garden]

The fuck you do

[odd remnant]

Does anyone know how to break the rock that is on crude oil? What explosion should I used, I can't place a refinery

[harsh crystal]

just bought satisfactory what should i know as a beginner?

[feral geyser]

nobelisk

[feral geyser]

ignore any and all advice except this

[odd remnant]

I tried to and it's not breakingg

[feral geyser]

explore and learn on your own, until you can't

[fervent garden]

Welcome to your worst nightmare and your latest addiction for the next 20 years

[odd remnant]

I'm going to tag you in it @feral geyser

[feral geyser]

that doesn't jive

[odd remnant]

What?

[fervent garden]

Does the large rock have cracks all over it

[odd remnant]

yes

[feral geyser]

then it should blow with a single regular nobelisk

[harsh crystal]

thank you

[harsh crystal]

oh golly

[fervent garden]

Many obelisks. Blow that fucker straight to the space dock

[odd remnant]

I tried that, let me tag you in it #screenshots

[feral geyser]

unless you are talking about the pressurizable fracking node

[white dawn]

Sometimes the cracked rocks have some particular spots which need to be hit with the explosive

[feral geyser]

as long as it is stuck to it, it shouldn't matter where

[white dawn]

Kind of annoying but you end up developing a bit of intuition about where to apply the booms

[fervent garden]

Guys when I use my water extractor, if I put all the water to the same pipe would it still power many coal gens?

[odd remnant]

I tagged you in it @feral geyser

[feral geyser]

yeah, that's a fracking node

[white dawn]

I've encountered plenty as recently as 1.0 which seemed to require some pretty specific targeting

[feral geyser]

you can't put regular extractors on that

you need the Resource Well Pressurizer (unlocked after aluminum)

[twin bay]

Is crossplay on console working now?

[white dawn]

I don't think it's an intentional thing, but I've definitely had recalcitrant boulders. :)

[odd remnant]

Damn I do not have that unlocked, I have never heard of that

[feral geyser]

tier 8

you'll get there eventually

[odd remnant]

Oof I'm not even there yet lol

[feral geyser]

you will also find nitrogen or water nodes like that, need it for those too

[odd remnant]

Thanks for the tip, I need to focus on my main task cause I'm trying to build a massive oil refinery

[feral geyser]

yeah, you can still do it with the regular nodes, then save the fracking ones for later infrastructure

[odd remnant]

Ohh okay cool did not know that

[wicked nacelle]

Make sure you have the four key alts before you put too much time in. Otherwise you’ll put a ton of time for very little results

Before then just make a little easy one that you don’t mind tearing down

[feral geyser]

bro, i cannot 😑 my game keeps duping object scanners

[wicked nacelle]

Well you can make lots of…. What builds out of those?

[feral geyser]

nobelisk detonators

[wicked nacelle]

Okay great. You can hand them out at ficsoween

To all the little kiddies

[odd remnant]

Key alts?

[wicked nacelle]

heavy oil residue (the alt), diluted (packaged) fuel, recycled plastic, recycled rubber

those recipes DRASTICALLY increase the amount of power/plastic/rubber you produce from oil

[feral geyser]

plubber recycling is a lucrative business

[odd remnant]

Oh damn I think I messed up on that but I will be on the look out for more broken ship and research

[feral geyser]

a single 600 vein can net you 900/min of each

[wicked nacelle]

it's good to set up some plastic/rubber production without them... just don't go and rig up an entire large area of oil using the base recipes -- this is basically the only spot where it's crazy to use vanilla recipes. everything else... pros/cons -- this is just pros

[odd remnant]

Yeah it's dreadful to deal with having to go back and fourth to my main base and stuff to get every thing I need

Thanks for the tip bro

[feral geyser]

gotta do the Dimensional Depot research

[odd remnant]

I did but I'm still trying to unlock the upgrades

[wicked nacelle]

for plastic/rubber (and later aluminum) it's 100% worth getting over the learning curve on how to set up a 2-rail highway train system. it's AMAZING once you understand it

[feral geyser]

i kinda wanna delete everything on my main save and start from scratch

[wicked nacelle]

until you get trains (and signals), then plastic/rubber is just a bit of a pain

[feral geyser]

but i don't know if i should

[odd remnant]

I'm doing that right now, trying to set up a two-way train system

[shy mulch]

alternative to consider - create a fresh save, load it into SCIM and unlock all tiers and alts and mam research

[wicked nacelle]

good for you!! the two-rail system (where each rail is one way) like a highway is the way to go

[feral geyser]

couldn't i just load this save into SCIM and delete everything?

[odd remnant]

Damn right!!!

[shy mulch]

that's also an option, whatever works for you

both ways are probably equal effort

[scenic pasture]

i have a friend that cracked satisfactory and he says its up to date and he has the multiplayer stuff but i still cant join him

ive bought the game pre 1.0 so im legit but idk how to join him

[odd remnant]

Cracked??

[shy mulch]

what exactly do you mean by cracked?

[feral geyser]

tell him not to do that

[scenic pasture]

pirated

head out of the gutters guys head out of the gutters

[shy mulch]

that is very strongly discouraged here, nobody will give advice regarding it

[odd remnant]

Now why would go on here and say that, the devs deserve the money for everything they do.

Shame on you

[scenic pasture]

thats what i said

but he went erm its moral because theyre owned by private equity and they dont deserve money

[odd remnant]

I won't engage but hey you do you

[scenic pasture]

theyre an independent studio bro he needa shut up 😭

any idea how to join him tho

[shy mulch]

not interested in whatever his reasons/excuses are, nobody is going to help

[feral geyser]

tell him to buy it

[odd remnant]

Ask him to buy the game

[shy mulch]

the way to join him is to get him to buy it, then we can help

[feral geyser]

and quit being a little bitch

[scenic pasture]

that wont work

[shy mulch]

then you can't join him

[feral geyser]

then neither will joining him

[scenic pasture]

as in you wont help me or it just wont work

[shy mulch]

both probably

[feral geyser]

both

[odd remnant]

No why should anyone help you it's obvious what needs to be done lol

[scenic pasture]

thats not a reason, im law abiding and i payed for my copy. i just want to play with my friend

[odd remnant]

Then offer to buy it for him if you can lol

[shy mulch]

nobody here wants your friend to be able to play

if he buys it then you can play with him

[scenic pasture]

hes the only other person who im friends with who plays satisfactory and i dont deserve to be punished for it 😭

[wicked nacelle]

I don't agree with wasist often.. but yeah

[feral geyser]

you're not being punished

[scenic pasture]

its 60 bucks mate

[shy mulch]

he's the one punishing you for it, tell him that

[odd remnant]

Where?

[scenic pasture]

australia

forget it yall dont care it doesnt matter

[odd remnant]

yeah little bro you though you would get help lol

[wicked nacelle]

don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out

[scenic pasture]

im glad whoever said its 40 deleted that message

[shy mulch]

we do care, a lot, about people paying for it

[scenic pasture]

lil bro is CRAZY

[feral geyser]

i didn't realize Australia was so hard up

[shy mulch]

when he pays for it, if it still doesn't work, then we will help you as much as we possibly can, until then you're talking to a brick wall

[scenic pasture]

yeah theres a thing called currency bro 😭

[feral geyser]

is there a way i can get SCIM to delete everything except sloops and spheres? cuz i don't wanna have to go collecting them out of machines

[scenic pasture]

ever heard of how countrys have different inflation rates and their pay inflates with it?

sure the cost of living here is horrific

but it scales soooooo

[shy mulch]

just delete absolutely everything then place a stack of each in your inventory

[feral geyser]

ugh, i guesssss

[scenic pasture]

and not everyone can shell out 60 bucks. i js wanted to play with my friend but clearly yall have a questionable view point

[shy mulch]

it's absolutely not questionable, your friend is the one who's preventing you from playing with him

[scenic pasture]

i agree he shouldnt have cracked it but it doesnt mean hes a bad guy hes just broke

[feral geyser]

you ain't gonna find support for piracy on the official game discord

[odd remnant]

Little bro if you know how pirate works you know online aspects of any game is often disabled due to you not buying the game lol

[feral geyser]

that's not even a questionable or controversial viewpoint

[scenic pasture]

i know its not but it was worth a try 💔

[feral geyser]

<@&387163995947270144> ban this guy

[scenic pasture]

stupid question but like jeez

[wicked nacelle]

just ignore no need to ban anyone

[odd remnant]

Tell him to cut some grass for a week or work the paper route for 2 weeks to get the money

[shy mulch]

it was not "worth a try" at all, it's immoral

[scenic pasture]

emotional maturity of a toddler, cry abt it bro

[feral geyser]

at least warn him

[scenic pasture]

i know it is but lets not forget I OWN THE GAME

I PAYED MY 60 DOLLARS

[shy mulch]

nothing is stopping you from playing the game

[odd remnant]

Then be a friend and buy him the game when you get paid and pay all your bills if you have enough

[grizzled orchid]

It's against the server rules to discuss piracy, so ptobably best to just move on to a new topic

[scenic pasture]

im not rich aswell dude i cant afford it. im not a piggy bank i can give him 5 dollars but i cant spare more

[odd remnant]

Now I'm going to disengaged from the conversation good luck to you

[split trench]

https://tenor.com/view/michael-jackson-comendo-picoca-gif-9669437860846841235

[scenic pasture]

i agree, lets move on

[wicked nacelle]

don't do that please

[kind jewel]

Does anyone know how to use train signals?

[wicked nacelle]

what's up?

[shy mulch]

Nope, nobody knows how they work, it's a dark art engaged only by the highest of wizards who live in a spider cave behind a strange little rock that glows with a slight green tint in the morning

[scenic pasture]

so hows everyones day goin

[kind jewel]

I have a "T" intersection or maybe considered a "Y" intersection, that I can't get the signals to work. The keep saying loop into themselves.

[feral geyser]

was going fine until some fool asked about getting past anti-piracy measures

[wicked nacelle]

probably take a break and let everyone forget about you for a while

[kind jewel]

I have a 2 track main line, with a 2 track "spur" that only goes one way on the tracks but I can't get these signals to work

[wicked nacelle]

that's a bug -- if you put a signal right on the split of the tracks, it will do that. Delete those and move them back a smudge

[scenic pasture]

yh fair enough

[wicked nacelle]

@kind jewel it's a crappy bug cuz that's where you want them to go... you can also try rebuilding the track over and over til it works but... ???

[split trench]

Came here to give this another bump. It would help us a lot to know if you guys are still crashing on UObject during gameplay after the recent patch.

[wicked nacelle]

you can tell the bug because if you're holding a signal in your build gun it shows the track colors -- if the track is the same color on each side of the signal -- taht's the bug

[scenic pasture]

all i wanted to do was play with a friend tho, sure hes stupid for pirating and i hate that he did it but like all i wanted was to play with a friend

[wicked nacelle]

I have the engine.ini change in because I was crashing -- should I take it out?

[wicked nacelle]

drop it please

[scenic pasture]

mb mb im just salty

[wicked nacelle]

or did the patch remove it? I guess I didn't check to see it was still there

[split trench]

If your save file is not large enough then yes. And if you crash during regular gameplay please share the logfile

[wicked nacelle]

it's this right?
[/Script/Engine.GarbageCollectionSettings]
gc.MaxObjectsInEditor=100000000
gc.MaxObjectsInGame=100000000

and I'd still see the same "uobject exceeded" or whatever in the top of the crash window if I'm getting it still?

[split trench]

yep

[wicked nacelle]

can you comment out lines in an ini file? ; ?? -- vscode thinks so

[split trench]

I think so , it should be using ' ; '

[shy mulch]

So what should the limit be now?

[wicked nacelle]

did you guys up the default or get rid of the crazy "it goes up 10k when you press e on a building" ? or boht

it was crazy watching it with the uobject counting mod when you spam e on a building... up up up and away!!!!!

[split trench]

No we did not change the default limit, we fixed a bug where the Uobjects being created from the Arrow indicator hologram (input/output on belts/pipes/ factory building) were not being removed. AKA - Blueprint auto connect causing Uobject crash.

[wicked nacelle]

it would eventually settle back down... if you didn't crash

[abstract heron]

Hey Guru i have the uobject crash from the other day i think when i got it

[split trench]

Problem is not with the rise of Uobjects, that is okay. It is bad if it does not clear up within like 10-15 seconds and continues to stack.

[kind jewel]

can you check #screenshots and see what you can see? There are no signals becuase i just removed them.

[wicked nacelle]

yeah that's fine. Now when you put the signals back down don't put them at the snap point where the rail merges/splits. Put it a little past where it goes to just one

@split trench can you talk at all if the "signal on track split" bug is on your radar? it's a HUGE pain point for supporting players

and people don't understand that they DO understand trains when they see that and it's just a bug and so they get SUPER frustrated -- and the 1.0 tutorials were done before the bug

[shy mulch]

all my signals are on track splits, how come it works for me but somehow doesn't seem to work for so many people?

[split trench]

Hmm unfortunately I am not aware of this issue, do you have Q&A site link for this issue so I can better understand ?

[clear aspen]

Hello chat

[wicked nacelle]

You put a signal on a track split and it says "signal loops on itself" and the track "color" is straight through the signal

[clear aspen]

How’s yalls day?

[wicked nacelle]

\I'll look but it's probably the #1 most having to support bug in the game that's not like.. console specific or something

[abstract heron]

guru is a cool person

[split trench]

I am gonna send that to uzu

[abstract heron]

fyi guru

the uobject crashing wass BEFORE u peeps made the changes on splines

i added it in #satisfactory-experimental

[abstract heron]

the 2 videos i showed and the mention of the train station hologram was meant to show that they go up and up on just having holograms like that

[split trench]

at least a screenshot would really really help me understand what the issue is.

[abstract heron]

ya atm guru if u having a train station in game the uobject limlt goes high and higher

like hologram about to place it

[split trench]

so y'all use the Uobject Counter mod ?

[abstract heron]

Yes

i do use it

[wicked nacelle]

we have to -- to know if we're going to crash

@split trench have you not seen this bug? #screenshots message That's crazy

it's constantly biting people

[abstract heron]

its having a angry day on u

[lucid pagoda]

yall i am terrified, all my math says im makin 48 uranium rods per min but my throughput monitor says 96 HOW, DID I MATERIALIZE MORE URANIUM

[haughty torrent]

From what I hear of this game, we should have the option to have enclosed conveyor belts or some sort of cover/shroud over the belts. That way the game doesn't need to render the items completely, just maybe like a light or texture element alongside the side that represents it. I could be sort of dumb and this is just a horrible idea that wouldn't even work, but if it could work like the way I'm thinking then wouldn't it be good?

[abstract heron]

And if i ik i am going to crash or it turns into a other colour as it goes on the mod i reload mysave

of the uobject mod

[wicked nacelle]

You can turn down the draw distance -- and it's NOT included in the general high/medium/low settings. I just got a TON of performance by turning down the belt distance and update freq

even though I have everything else at ultra.

[abstract heron]

i only run the game on ulltra if i need heat i run it on medium

[split trench]

Sadly no, this is the first time I am reading about it. Interesting that placing a signal further ahead makes it work, but doesn't if its on a split.

[wicked nacelle]

#screenshots message -- yeah I made it happen intentionally but the game LOADS and uobject counter mod says I'm in the red. I spam e for 15 seconds and I crash

[wicked nacelle]

it's very much exactly this. And if you rebuild the rail enough times eventually you can get it to sit on the split -- it's almost like it's some sort of floating point comparison issue. but moving the signal to the unsplit side ALWAYS works immediately. Also, you know about the "mouse wheel often doesn't switch the signal side" bug?

[abstract heron]

he might ask for logs and such

[late dune]

Where to report bugs?

[abstract heron]

in QA or on here

or in QA help area

[split trench]

Q&A Site preferebly

[wicked nacelle]

it's nothign magic. my game loads at like 80% the limit and each time you press e it goes up a TON for a little while. the qa site is the official site, we're just all piling on guru because he's here

[abstract heron]

What where u doing

to make uobject go that high

[split trench]

The screenshot is super helpful and I will try to repro the issue on my end. But yeah no promise as to if and when this will be addressed.

[abstract heron]

Wait its like 5aam for u peeps in sweeden guru

[wicked nacelle]

my game loads at 1.7M ubobject and each time you press E on a building it spikes up 70k more.

[abstract heron]

Why are u up?

[wicked nacelle]

so it's trivial to get it up to 2.8M or whatever the default limit is

pressing e 15 times or whatever

[sullen gull]

Dedication! 😏

I remember when i was doing my iron refineryys or copper refs for something i remember that i had to constantly save and reload which i hated it

[wicked nacelle]

dunno if you were asking for me -- I already had the engine.ini upgraded limit in place -- I just took it out cuz guru asked for it. Now I put it back in and I'm gucci

[abstract heron]

he is the guy if i remembe last year that did so many ficmas gift trees in his world

[abstract heron]

are the train tracks still coming for uobject stuff?

or splines

[leaden matrix]

Pssst guys, I just got to oil fuel at 31 hours, am I on a normal pace? 0_0

[wicked nacelle]

sure -- prefectly normal for you playing the game 🙂

[shy mulch]

No such thing as "normal pace". Some people will have completed the whole game by 31 hours, some people won't have got that far after 500 hours

[wicked nacelle]

enjoy oil fuel -- it's immensely powerful. don't forget to look in the sulfur tree in the MAM for new fuel types that make your fuel able to generate WAY more power

[shy mulch]

As long as you're enjoying yourself, then you're all good

[leaden matrix]

Ooooooo, how much does it generate compared to coal? Cause I was lowkey getting fed up with having to expand my coal generators every like 1-3 hours or so

[leaden matrix]

Thats very comforting :>

[teal crater]

Is molded steel pipe or solid steel ingot better?

Or should I just rescan

[shy mulch]

Do either of them benefit you? If one does, then take it, if neither does, leave it until you need something

[feral geyser]

They do different things, so no clear answer. Both are excellent alts

[charred sandal]

I read somewhere that you can only have 3 dismantle crates on the map at a time. Anyone know if this is true ?

[feral geyser]

No

They do merge if you have that setting set though.

[charred sandal]

What setting?

Was hoping to make it easier to dismantle my factory

[feral geyser]

It's in gameplay, I forget exactly what it's called

You'll find it

[charred sandal]

Okay. Do you know if it works for multiple people? Lol

[fervent garden]

If I were to connect 5 water extractors to one pipe would it still be able to power 5 coal gens?

[feral geyser]

I believe so. It searches for an existing crate within 150m and merges them.

[feral geyser]

Mk 2 pipe?

[fervent garden]

Mk1

[feral geyser]

No, they can only carry 300.
