I have a lot of time
Are they more focused on faster long distance transport than high storage?
If so, I can make that work, I suppose
Made me grin, that's awesome lmao
more point to point transfers
the more trains stop at a station the less throughput that station can manage.
and each train can often only move about 1 belt per car , sometimes less
Not mine.
they also don't have dynamic pathing, so no train stackers, not that you want train stackers in this game
From a post I found on reddit. Though it was awesome and they shared the save
Seems like I just need... many trains
There was a jumping spider I died
if you want. The stations are huge though, takes up so much space
What are some common reasons why I'm not getting any flow through my pipeline pump?
what signal should i put at a point where two tracks meet but they are going from 2 into 1
block on both sides
just post some overhead images of your systesm in #math-and-meta
what about at the point where they merge
Thank you, I was wondering why I couldn't post here
youvew put pipes on an incline
Is it only me who suffered with getting a billion screws early game?
nothing
ok
hard drives
altrernate screw recipes
thanks, i will have more questions about signals
Is there a way to know where to hunt MAM creatures I need
if anything alternate rotor aswell
spiders are in caves, the rest are everywhere
there all around the map
K
Ima unlock enhanced security
To get good self defense and hunt the creatures down
this sounds wierd as balls but is there a set of impure nodes that are far out of the way than one might assume
I need limestone Iron and copper
For testing purposes
where abouts?
anywhere that feels like you wouldnt be able to really build anything
it doesn't sound bonkers btw, i outsource a lot of basic build mats to impure nodes
all over? but you don't need impure for that. There's more nodes on the map than you can realistically ever use
Top of grass fields
Or bottom of grass fiels has a mix of impure iron + copper nodes, depends where you have build already
I just need a drone to carry about 300 i/s of copper iron and limestone for a thing im trying to do
There is this big creature that keeps running how do I kill it
shoot it or blow it up
No gun yet
xeno zpper
choose peace and go automate stuff, there's no loot
they dont give you anything if you kill them

I killed it and it gave nothing
the big grey duded only give you something if you bounce on them and its an achievement
and now that you killed it you'll never be able to get the achievement 🙁
truly a life lesson
I see another one
no matter what i do with the signals it seems that i always have conflicting entry signals
what does that actually mean?
try looking at a guide
i have but they generally just say path signals at junction entrance and block at exits
make a post in #1038092680493801533 with overhead images while holding a signal to show the blocks
ok
I just spent an hour trying to figure out how to delete blueprints from my library and finally just logged on to my server and deleted them manually. Please tell me that there is an actual way to delete blueprints, the UI is incredibly frustrating
What is inhaler for
health
Do spiders respawn at the same cave
Man...
3 in game days
Ohh
I've got an iron refinery setup producing 890/m, because my current conveyors fill 16 refineries too slowly
So it's down to 14
ive had things respawn immediately when i loaded a different save
Crystal oscillator is good?
I mean how do I get it
wiki knows that stuff better than me
Cuz I need it for animal research and it’s locked in codex
you trying to run before you can walk?
What does the 1 bar on xeno basher mean
It shows 2 more empty bars in bottom left
those show how many hand slots you have
Oh thx
Yes you can delete blueprints normally through the ui
I'm slightly disappointed that I can't produce exactly 960 per min iron with my current belt tier
Just use 2 belts
That's not how it works 
Yeah it is 😉
So you say, but how?
A single 480 resource is going into 14 refineries
I'll open my game one sec
Ok? So get a 2nd source?
You done an overhead feed before?
I could
is this about running a second belt above the first?
yeah
why not 2 belts side by side with a manifold on either side?
either way works
those enhanced splitters are game changers lmao
What machine turns biomass into biofuel
over the top tend to use same space and easier to remove later
Constructor?
constructer
Thx
Press O -> Type biofuel
what do you need the biofuel to fuel though?
OH THXX
I use biofuel for everything
I didn’t do coal yet
chainsaw?
i use coal for tractors
Even at a single belt the math is annoying
i cant wait for the train though lol
Is there like a faster way to place platform, like make a big flat area
what you doing pure iron?
Pure iron 200% at 480/m going to 14 refineries
I did the math right, it just turned out to be less because of the odd number input
Okay so when you're at the blueprint tab, at the bottom it says Edit (has a gear icon) click that and then hover over the blueprint you want to delete. Then press the gear icon that appears on that blueprint. Then press 'remove blueprint' at the bottom
35/m per refinery
Yeah.. example of muti feed 😛 #screenshots message
Should I rush phase 2 for space elevator
I'll do that later when I have better belts
I can bring a normal iron node over here i guess
I don't see any 'edit' or gear icon
Pure iron is good, but i find its not worth it long term, i would not do it again unless "stuck" its too expensive for what it gets you being that its the more common resource in the world
eg your better putting hte effort into pure caterium rather than pure iron
Sent pic in screenshots
WHAAAT WHY DID NO ONE TOLD ME THERES A ZOOP MODE THINGY😭
I'm making everything pure because funny number go up
So many hours wasted 💔
At the bottom it says: Select, Add to To-Do List, Bind to Hotbar, Cycle Hotbar, Search, Close. No edit, no gear icon
You meant he text at the bottom which say "PRess R to change build mode?"
Until I have sulfuric acid*
Ahh ok 🙂
Yes, you can built like 10x platforms at once
Whole time I was placing one by one
What we really need a blueprint zoop 😛
Real
It's very easy to just take nodes close to water and do it like that 
Is there a way to make mobs respawn instantly
how do you create a server?
U pay me 1 million dollars
I want to transport everything i make by train to a central hub
There's a pure oil node at the center of the map
okie dokie
Yeah I see the pic you sent. That's kinda weird your game isnt showing the edit button
ui scale?
This is incredibly frustrating to me
What’s frustrating for me is that no iron deposit is near coal
Guessing you've tried restarting your game already?
I have been trying to figure this out since yesterday, so yes.
Hm yeah I'm not sure
It's a shame since I like the game but this issue makes me want to pack it up
There's probably a folder where the blueprints are saved
If you want to delete them that way, not sure if that would be a good idea but yeah
Like on your pc
There is, north of rocky desserts
Like I said, I already went into my server's file system to delete them manually. Sucks because I rented a server for 6 months and now I regret it
Oh it's in a dedicated server?
yes
I've had bp issues in dedicated servers,
Mostly that they go back to undefined category,
Possibly one time the edit button was gone for me too
It certainly feels half-baked
What I'd do is save the blueprints you'll use with a different colored background
And just ignore the others
Since you have no way to delete blueprints
Or something in its name you can use to distinguish
That's quite a kludgey hack tbh 😆
Yes lol
is there a way to adjust maximum distance to hologram for placement?
can i ask a question here about angled pillars
@wispy osprey I can see from your screenshot why you don't want to come from over the top with the belt
how do you apply a colour scheme to all buildings?
If all of the buildings are using a common color swatch, edit that swatch to the colors you want
when should i start to worry about power, at the moment i almost copleted phase 4 i have about 10k MW
wharts your oil setup like
wait no youve not even got oil mb
until you get oil pretty much
you must be taking things slow.. so phase 5 should ask like 25 GW for you 😛
phase 5 is where you get fuel I think
The context of the conversation was OP asking "how much does a gen consume", so I'm talking about those types of questions
And for "how much do you usually need", the answer is "depends, just build small amount and expand later if needed" anyway 😉
phases are elevator stuff no?
people always confuse tier and phases, and I get confused a lot!
god its been so long and im no where near my hub lmao i cant relly check
no iron near me either
Not sure what you are trying to check. But can you use the wiki?
What coordinates
How do u do that
How do deposits appear on map
Satisfactory Calculator Interactive Map
Huh how to access it
There is radar towers (cant remember the actual name ) that can reveal them in game too
internet
so how many refinerys can support a fuel gen
Uh the picture shows iron deposit are really far from coal tho
That's zoomed in, they are around the corner
Check the pins in #mathfor some really useful links
one fuel generator burns 12 m3/min, so divide the total fuel you're making by that
Where I can’t find it
make sure to enable all nodes, only pure nodes are visible by default
Wdym I don’t understand
the map only shows nodes with pure purity when you first open it

WAIT A SECOND
IF I CHOSE ROCKY DESERT IT ISN’T ALL DESERT?
CUZ THAT IS WHAT I SEE ON MAP
Here's the crazy thing
I'm making a second floor for steel because of 4 normal coal nodes nearby
its a "rocky" desert not a desert desert
you choose a starting location on the same map
No I mean will I find greenland dms I show u what I mean
OH SO WE ALL HAVE THE SAME MAP?
just post in #screenshots
I posted it so wait rocky desert is only top left??
yes
Yes its one big map with 4 different start locations. Eventually you will be forced to use other areas
YAYY
when do i unlock mk3 drills?
also what are the harddrives for
I saw it somewhere
Pretty late
Maybe in MAM
aw
@eager harbor just activate the button spawn locations below the map selection
You use them in the MAM to unlock alternate recipes.
Such as making screws from iron ingots. Allowing you to skip making iron rods first
On the game map?
Oh noice
on the interactive map, yes
Do we get enough harddrives tho cuz I only see few on the map
There are more hard drives than alternate recipes
The mam doesnt use power so you can place it where you wish put the hard-drive into the mam then dis assemble the mam as it scans the harddrive
if you somehow need more you can buy them with tickets in the fcsit shop
I cant find it
There is more harddrives in the game then recipies
Wait so this way 1 harddrive for infinite recipes
no
you get to choose between 2 things after its researched or re roll 1 time
Huh what do u mean disassemble then

Its A BASIC MECHANIC
So u mean in the website not ingame
YOU LEARN IT AT THE START OF THE GAME 😭 😭
As i said INTERACTIVE map means the website
So u mean I destroy the MAM
YES
just play it a bit
Head lift from a pump will carry on through a pipe junction right? I noticed that when placing a pump, the visual blue ring will stop at a junction even if the head lift should carry it much further than that, so visually it's implying that the head lift would stop there but that's just incorrect right?
does anyone else have a problem with trying to switch the direction of a rail risgnal
i scroll but nothing happens
The blue rings should move beyond the junction IIRC
just move your body around i think its just a bug
yeah that sometimes works but if its a bug then whatever
But why destroy it while it is scanning the harddrive?

I can just keep the MAM there
I got a problem I'm making fuel to make power and by doing so I'm make polymer resin so I also make rubber and plastic but my 2 container for rubber and plastic are full so the fuel power shut down what could I do with rubber and plastic
The MAM is a global item, when it's gone it's still scanning the hard drive, and it carries across all MAMs placed in the world
Ohh kkk
you get all the resources you used to make it back so you can just place it down later again for convienience
Kk
can i somehow lift my build up on the blueprint maker?
But I have a base I don’t just go around with it
aha you're right the pipe was perfectly lined up but it wasn't connected. Wouldn't have noticed that unless I had checked haha
CPP?
internet
the I N T E R N E T
Shift and tab than click the internet browser icon
Hai
cant 10 refinerys run 5 fuel gens?
@golden nexus u can auto power cores???
yes
@ember moon I just unlocked coal which recipe should I use I sent in screenshots
Shouldn’t u hunt the power slugs
just use normal coal for now
@clear tartan Easy way to find out yourself is to build a fuel gen (if you don't have one near by) and then at the cogwheel icon at the fuel indicator, you can see how much is required of the different types of fuel.
no it is destroyed in the research process. there is 100 + drivesa on the map
can u stack miners on top of each other prehaps using foundations?
cant 10 refinerys power 5 fuel gens?
no
Phase 1 has 4 tiers? And phase 2 unlocks train?
Phase 1 is tiers 1+2, Phase 2 is tiers 3+4, etc.
Trains are in Phase 3 (tiers 5+6)
no train is at tier 6
Uh I see 4 tiers here and I only launched space elevator once
it depends how you do it
Correct -- Phase 1 (tiers 1+2) is prior to sending any Space Elevator parts up.
@clear tartan fuel gets used at 15/min in a gen
But I have 4 tiers here
as in the recipe or?
Right, and prior to launching the first Elevator delivery (when you were still in Phase 1 / tiers 1+2), there were only two available
the gen consumtion rate varies per type, but fuel is 15/min
depends on recipes and fuel
So when I launch second time I get train?
Cuz I see tier 5 and 6 locked behind phase 2
Once you launch your second elevator delivery, and enter phase 3, you'll have access to the milestone unlock for trains, yes
Though you'll have to work through an extra milestone or three before actually unlocking them.
Oh
Wait can u check screenshots and tell me which recipe I can use for CPP right now I just unlocked coal
is there a version of street light with 2 same sides?
just use coal
Nothing else?
Go with regular coal + water
Also what are hypertubes
It's used to transport you
So my power shard automation only uses 6GW
What about tractor
Yep
!wikisearch cg
The Coal-Powered Generator is a power generator building that generates power by burning Coal, Compacted Coal or Petroleum Coke and Water. It is the first fully automated power source the pioneer has access to and also the first power source to use a mined resource.
One Coal-Powered Generator produces...
What is cg
You can try those above.
But if you want something really simple you could do 1 water extractor connected to 2 coal generators
cg = coal generator
Oh
coal generator . I thought that is what you were inquiring about
Yesyes
I thought it was coal power plant
when do you get bp mk2
Me?
hey guys ive got a question
When you finish Phase 2.
tier 6 nvm
how the hell do i use a chainsaw
biofuel
check the wiki. We love helping ppl here but a certian level of self research is appreciated ^_^
It requires fuel in your inventory.
unlock it first in hub, then make it with screws
how do i put biofuel into it
Is there a steel setup?
I accidentally typed what I was thinking mb lol
Yo guys, my savegame is crashing the game. 305hours of play, even the auto saves are crashing, any ideas? i dont have any mods!
just have it in your inventory
crafting bench or make the solid biofuel in constructor
I feel like jump pads are useless
huh?
i have biofuel
they have uses
i cant break a tree
Note the Chainsaw uses hard biofuel
Someone needs to find out the minimum amount of any buildings to beat Satisfactory
I want steel setup
Have you got solid Biofuel
do i need solid biefuel or
Pretty much
I must be close, I did it with 6 😛
yes
i can make some
Yes. The one that looks like fire logs.
ah alright
hmm does not sound bad
its subtle detail, biomass != solid biofuel != liquid biofuel
It's basically just 1 if you hand feed
Well maybe a few for refinery
No bother 🙂
Chainsaw is cool
Just wish it could run on rocket fuel 🙁
would be sick XD
omg
it gives so much materials
i was collecting leaves this entire time
chainsaw is great in general but AMAZING when you are on biofuel still
Yeah.
If you want to be a surgeon with it, you can switch to single mode (R). Then you only cut the thing that is highlighted.
also whats the difference between area mode and single mode
I think the radius should increas massivly with fuel types later espeically with rocket / ionized
see your above comment
chainsaw takes all in a circle around you, single mode takes only the thing you aimed for
oh lol
or weaponize it....
Go full army of darkness.
My rocket-fueled massive AOE chainsaw
I finished tier 0 tier 1 tier 2 tier 3 now tier 4 is kinda difficult cuz I don’t have a steel setup in mind anyone has steel setup
does it use less fuel in that case?
no
oh thats nice
im trying to lok for where I get mark 2 poles
fuel btw is not a problem to make once you have a chain saw, just automated the production of leave -> biomass -> solid biofuel and wood -> biomass -> solid bio fuel....
Even on the wiki its confusing
that would be nefty. But im happy the way it is. you dont need the resources from it by the time you are at rocket fuel.
"
to clear brush the tech tree goes
Hands
chainsaw
clusterNob
Nuke
Yeah, thats the point... you just want to be able to clear land with it
you liearn them in the Mam i thinks
Yeah once I get nobelisks that's just my primary way of clearing things in the way. Chainsaw I only use if I need biofuel
Its like the nukes should remove vegatation in 20x20 foundation radius or something
Guys MK2 drill for pure iron how much smelters
MK2 you unlock with cupons in the Awesome shop.
how do you automate it
Guys MK2 drill for pure iron how much smelters
oh yeah in caterium
this is like early game power supply with solid biofuel #screenshots message
I think 8
do some math. Reasources it pulls from the ground divided by 30
your base is so organized
looks really nice
lets math it out Ore from miners can be x
how muich the smelter uses is y
x/y=
lmao
ok.... #screenshots message
Instructions unclear I have uranium in my smelters now
what am i even looking at atp 😭
thats actually what early game looks like for me
So iron, copper, concrete and basic space elevators parts
ic
Bio burners nice-to-know
Since we have a lot of newcomers here, I just want to throw this one out there.
For early game power, build a ton of bio burner and get them filled up.
Unlike Coal and what comes after, bioburners only burn fuel as needed. So a if you are using 20MW, 10 burners filled will provide the same power as a single burner that is maxed out but for 10 times the duration.
Just need to learn to automate them like this #screenshots message
The early game bioburners are tied to your production rates, it teacher you from the get go to be efficent and about "max capacity" in power systems both short and long term
I even added a third box for mycelium because my area had so much of it
Even better. Then you just drop whatever you picked up in a container.
Most the time organization is the result of planning in my point of view. I plan out my factory and its purpose before i build. this allows me to space out what i needc
Kinda. It also about knocking down problems and meeting requirements to remove blocks which are in the way
thats the impure iron node?
Rush to coal like the black gold it is.
whats impure
press N -> enter calculation
node come in impure, normal, pure which on a mk1 miner are 30/60/120 speeds
I cant find it
All you need to do is start building on foundations
mine is 60
Yeah thats fine 🙂
Not working can u send ss
new players are in for a bad time if they split an impure node to 2 smelters which want 30 each
yeah but then you underclock them both to 50% and come out ahead on power use!
The ingame calculator is not working for you?
True
is it worth overclocking fuel gens if i dont have enough space?
I pressed N
@eager harbor Do you get a search box when you press "N" ?
That's the calculator
In that. Type 2+2
there no downside to overclocking power gens besides the shards being used
i think that playing the game for the 2nd time is more fun than for the first time no?
It's multifunctional
Umm, its comex. You get like "I would do it all differently" multiple times
because then you can build a nice base instead of having random stuff everywhere
N is quick search and basic calculator.
wyeah, hahahhahahahhahahahahaha "I am going to make it nice and proper this time around"
I overclock those all the time because of how much space they take up
yeah something like that lol
For some it keeps getting better. 2nd, 3rd, 4th. For others, they don't want to go through the early-game hassle again.
How does the calculator work
Fair enough I am thinking of doing that as I barely use them anyway
literally just enter equations like "5+7" or "120 / 5 * 16"
ehh I'm not sure - they did a great job with the map and I had a lot of fun exploring it first run
Remember to sloop your slugs
6 coal gens is still a good amount right
Bro 
You literally just type in the math 5x25/3
Type in the equation like 2÷1
It will spit out the answer
Oh kk
I suggest getting a constructor because to make a lot of it it’s quite time consuming
If you're just getting started with power, it's a start. You'll want a lot more later.
is the map really big
Yup, Even hand loading it is faster
You'll be glad you're not walking everywhere, it's big
for a game like this at least - maybe not on an MMO scale or something like that
yes
i see
Oh I do I have 300 not including those in use
Just discovered arachnophobia mode, pfttt
Satisfactory, Northrend edition
is there different materials in different biomes or no
Ah you're good then 😅
The game has amazing options and customization
#screenshots message its just that im creating blueprints using up to tier 2 stuff rn and this was the idewa I had
Kinda... See screenshot o tagged you in
Yo can u dm me a bit
Materials and biomes are not exactly mapped to one another, but there's different materials in different areas sure.
Yeah, you'll discover uranium, bauxite, quartz etc etc as yo uadventure later into the game. It's not particularly biome, but more so distance from starting regions
thats the desert "planet" tho right?
all the resources are available in multiple biomes but maybe not every biome
There's only 1 map.
Different qualities. For example the grass fields has a lot of.... grass. While the northern forest has lots of wood.
The blue customer has lots of silica and mycilia.
4 players on the same server is not MMO for sure. But consider it.
Tons of players. (Satis)Factions fighting to complete project assembly.
There only is 1 map. Its got 4 starting locations
huh
Can u explain something to me in dms
yeah I was speaking more to map size than player counter
but i saw an option to pick between 3 different things at the start
no put it in #1038092680493801533
I loveee looting crashed ficsit crafts. I'm still waiting on my Versatile frameworks to be finished, but I've got 50 heavy mod frames lol
You can walk from one starting point to the other.
use calculator or modeler to anser that yourself
The game would need to be a lot grindier I think lol
I know 🙂
Thought-train just went choo choo.
ohhhh
Pls dm
thats why theres a map online of every resource
Capture the flag Space elevator
NO
oh
idk im new to the game i started yesterday
But capture the lizzard doggo instead.
here you can see the other areas in the distance #screenshots message
dont lkook at any guides till your actually stuck
Smelters make 30 ore->30 bars...
Mk2 drill on a normal vein makes 120 ore...
120/30, cmon now...
just enjoy the game for now until you need it
should i set an auto crafting thingy for some things i cant be bothered to craft myself?
like biofuel?
use automation rather than craft bench
Eh, the wiki can be helpful.
Highly recommendable.
whats that
Tis an automation game, automate everything ya can ((Besides like, one off tools))
well yeah
Even putting a machine down and hand loading a stack of items across 4-6 machines is faster than the craft bench. But you should come up with 100% automated solutions
Constructors, assemblers, smelters. Stuff like that
Those buildings need power though, get a chainsaw.
how would i get fuel 100% automated if i have to harvest trees and stuffs
Isn’t the game made around everything being used for something, and like no waste
Other power sources
Store the fuel in a storage container, feed it to the bio burners.
it comes later as coal generators, oil(5+ types), nuclear
But coal and up are completely automatable.
ooh
That power can be Semi automated, atleast... Wood->Biomass->Solid biomass-> burners
!wikisearch chainsaw
Bio can be automated at least everything from two containers, one for wood, one for leaves
The power yield tends to increase with the type as well.
Could u pls dm
So while you cannot automate collection of wood/leaves. You can automate the production fro wood + leaves
Can u dm I wanna show u smth pls
You still need to pick stuff up yourself. You cannot "mine" those materials. But you can automate the conversion from leaves and tree to biomass to solid biofuel to feeding it to the biomass burner.
No, why dms? Put it in here or #1038092680493801533
618/1000... Another hour to go...
no, put it in public chats
@vapid venture I suggest going for coal almost immediately after unlocking the tiers to do so, then automate everything else
that's more than enough time to do the best thing you can do in Satis and build a factory cart skate park then record a bunch of routes of you doing tricks and leave the carts automated on those routes
and then i can auto put the coal in the biomass burners, correct?
The trick with power its biofuel introduces you to automation. Then coal introduces you to fluids + pipes
no you get different gen
oh alright
I'm very, very much in favour of getting the first two coal generators down as soon as possible. That should power enough to get the next generators and your entire iron automated.
No, the coal has its own generator but yes, coal is fully automatable
THAT SHOULD POWER ENOUGH TO GET THE NEXT GENERATORS
Tbh just try and get to coal gens and build that. I don't hang around using burners for too long, it's not worth
I know
Lol
okay
Way ahead of ya :) My cart is constantly doing donuts outside the space elevator, it's glorious
example of a small/medium coal gen setup #screenshots message
Whilst I'm waiting on my stuff to craft ,I've just been flinging myself across the map and praying I land safely ((80% success rate so far))
!wikisearch cg
The Coal-Powered Generator is a power generator building that generates power by burning Coal, Compacted Coal or Petroleum Coke and Water. It is the first fully automated power source the pioneer has access to and also the first power source to use a mined resource.
One Coal-Powered Generator produces...
Obligatory pipeline manual reference link https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/File:Pipeline_Manual.pdf
wtfuh
Of ccourse you want to make coal gens, you ned a lot of renforced plate and rotors.....
ill work on that when i unlock coal
for now ill enjoy not having to worry about that
you also need a lot of that to unlock coal lol
tldr, coal gens eat 15 coal each, and like, 45m^3 of water, or whatever it is... This build just matches whatever it wants t oeat
dude what language are you speaking right now
i dont understand
Start small 🙂
Everything will come eventually. Figure out the basics. Follow what ADA suggests and you'll have coal in no time.
And rotors won't be the first thing you have automated. Plenty of people leave that till after their first coal generators. But once you've put the miners and smelters down and got everything up to rods automated, getting the rest done isn't such a hassle anymore.
coal generators consume 15/min coal each as well as 45/min water each
my Biofuel setup is so compact lel
So if you plan for 8 and have to handcraft some of the parts for the first 2, you can do less and less handcrafting for the remainder and all of a sudden you'll be fully automating your iron.
my late game one is massive lmao
Thats at least earlygame good to go tillcoal
look at thew one I posted in #screenshots
@limpid iron I saw your 164 fuel gen in #screenshots where did you get the fuel and what do you do with byproduct?
@vapid venture build the gens next to a large water pool so you only have to route power to your production
!wikisearch power tower
My late game one can be slooped, but it converts everything that can be converted to jetpack fuel
So the containers accepts leave, wood, any dead animals parts, biomass, solid biofuel, protien etc...
Since I'm still waiting... slug coaster
Yooooo
Go get all the colors!!!!!!
U prob already have them
so what youre saying is that i have to move everything i have near water?
Only the generators
your not near water, thats considered a "puddle"
depends if you want to move water near them or not 🙂
I kinda just enabled flying in the one im currently doing just for the sake of convinience
You all discussing coal, and I'm happy with my 7.8GW bio setup 😄

You can just run the power to ur factory
building close to your watersource is often the easiest solution as fluiods can be a pain to move
Only what goes into the generators. Run power from the generators to the rest of your factories.
thats like 100 gens not even that for 30GW
oh 7.8
wrong selection in modeler summary. Corrected it.
Belting items is easy. Moving fluids is not exactly complicated either, but trips up just about all the new users and better avoided for long bits if you're just starting out.
you should never be using super long lines of conveyors for builds
keep it short and suimple
Nothing more simple than a belt
I could never get trains to work for me
They just wouldn’t pick up the cargo off of it even tho it was in the station
I can get trains to work but dang the station is so massive and the rail can't turn sharply and it's a pain to make the rails look good
they are easy, you just set station to load / unload and set the timetable
Best part of this game is that ther is many solutions to the problems presented.
Foundation
min radius turn is 3 foundations to keep it sensible
How about going up and down
there are SOME cases where long lines of belts are needed but not ALL the time
2M ramp by default
Yes this is the way
But that takes up a ton of space and time
Not really if u use the zoop building mode for the foundations
Its a large initial investment, but you are also building a go anywhere machines and bring anything to anywhere machine... as for up/down.... #1452376735759732766 message
Yeah no thanks I've built spirals before it is not fun
Just build a large staircase
how much upm /min can be moved with a train?
how long is the train?
idk. I don't know much about trains yet 😢
do you guys think they will add crossplay in the future
Just saturate the line with cars 😛
Probably
You just can't go wrong with belts they are simplicity at its finest, best way to transport resources
Oh btw how do I do that reference thing
I'm considering getting it on ps5. but I don't know if it's worth it without crossplay
If you have a fast enough one
seems like the only energy needed is for the parts to build it once
Hold on i take that back, drones are better lol
trains solo cuz they way cooler
how do I remove the blueprint I created from the Undefined category
I would play satisfactory more but on my PC it runs at a solid half fps
ue5 games my beloved
On the lowest settings too
me too twin
Its not a simple as tht basically. If you have a train which has 4 cargo wagons on it. Each wagon can take 32 stacks. So if its moving concrete its moving 16,000 concrete per wagon. The limits are per wagon of course which is just under 2x belts speed (you get 2 belts). But the rail its self if you have for example a train 4 long (128 stacks) and a train going past every 30 seconds. Its moving 128,000/min ?
The only reason i'm getting it on ps5 is bc my computer doesn't run it very well
@fluid crow So track track on longer trains like 8 long every 30 seconds is moving 256,000/min....
Satisfactory is one of the best optimized games ive ever played. It runs great om my laptop.
@golden nexus how do I do the reference to a different stream thing you did
copy link + paste it
wow cool, thanks for the info!
on busy track you can get a train though every 10 seconds 😉
It's impressive for everything that's being displayed and at that fidelity
ue5 game and optimized in the same sentence ❤️🩹
*optimized
im serious, Path of exile 2 runs like poop so does many games but no issues with satisfactory. i run it medium high settings
it does seem like it runs pretty good for the amount of things going on tbh
games optimization is at a all time low
Is there a way to make mobs respawn instantly
no
Not really
chainsaw if you got it
Go for coal
there's usually a better way to do stuff than manual labour
get past biomass generaters as soon as you can that shit sucks 🙏
Exactly
You can pick up the leftovers. Go to a different biome. Then come back. They sometimes respawn once the game reloads that area of the map.
Sometimes.
pick up leaves, chainsaw trees. mobs are not a good biomass source
@golden elbow
one of the best is kill 2-4 animals and they convert to biomass quite well
Btw turn it into biofuel if you aren't doing that already
I spend all my animal parts on those tickets, I'm addicted 😭
?
Since biofuel production is often a temporary thing until you have coal, it can help to pick up a few somersloops and double the output from the different steps of converting raw materials to solid biofuel.
(once that option is researched)
solid biofuel 🤑
Carpet bomb random mobs while ur waiting
Just researching it now, actually. Like, In the next minute, Ill be doing so
Yay
766/1000 ((jeez))
What r u waiting for anyway
(((All, and I mean ALL my infastructure is being teared down pretty much immediately into phase 3))
rocket fuel da best power source cuz nuclear is annoying 💯
Uh, the strange truss like thing Project Assembly needs, Versatile framework
I've only got 10 a minute powering through-
rocket fuel is insignificant in compare to nuclear
i got a 300k grid with just rocket fuel ✌️
hard dis agree. BUT i thihnk it s a choice
But nuclear
you gotta do nuclear at least once
yea i did it once and wanted to kms
you really dont. its a choice lol
How about this, build new, and then after it's complete tear down the old if you want
just a small one
shit took like 50 hours for 8 plants
But nuclear is funny
granted they were overclocked fully
people bite off more than they can do with it, very easy to do with nuclear
Deforestation seems the best option for bio mass lol
annoying the nukes are funny tho
how many refinerys can i run on polymer resin if i make 180 a min
which resin?
https://satisfactory-calculator.com lowk just use this
I like attaching nuke nobelisks to the bouncy giraffes back then hitting it and when it runs away explode it
polymer
i do but sometimes its ehh
There multiple ways to get it.... but the crude -> polymer. You open the refinery you see it uses "60 crude oil per minute" and then you press N and if you have a normal node you type 300/60 and if you have a pure node you type 600/60
Should I destroy my old modular frame factory?
Deforestation just made me 3000 solid biofuel
It is an old one, if I destroyed it I could improve it by a LOT
ok
Isn't like ionic fuel like pretty or something or whatever it's called
what do i do after the number i get
its just white
Hello hello
Make it bigger then make it into heavy modular frames or destroy it
thats the answerto your question
Thats what I plan on doing
Actually just destroy it then rebuild it better and more optimized
is there an easy way to mass delete?
i want to split polymer resin between plastic and rubber production though
Ctrl when deleting I think
I know, but how can I make it easier?
you cant
So which polymer are you talking baout cause theres 2-3 ways to get it. You mean produce it from crude oil, or consume the output of the byproduct from HOR?
Oh good you're still here
One sec
the one where you put oil in
and you get fuel out
@clear tartan this is why you need to figure it out on your own at this point. Cause you can do
Crude -> Plastic -> HOR -> Polymer
Crude -> Rubber -> HOR -> Polymer
Crude -> Polymer
Crude -> HOR -> Polymer
etc.. etc....
do you have some server up?
i think i can atleast get 4 refinerys split on making plastic/rubber
How is everyone here doing
on crude to polymer
Look at the recipes yourself if you cant do the math yourself your never gonna be abkle to do your maths gcse
this is litterally basic maths
Pretty good hbu
Issue with oil is it becomes massively complex depends on what specific things your doing with it, this means questions like "how many ref's can i do with X" no longer can be answered accurately
Sure it is but no need to point that out rember
Good ty
ah
Solid biofuel takes 10 years to craft lol
GET COAL DAMNIT
Nah
Not until I get mk2
U cooked
automate it
I got 3000 solid buefuel already
I just place a refinery down and select what I want it to make. Look at how much it needs. Go from there
Same
I don’t wanna rebuild it I will just make it efficient from the start and I wont build it before getting electric infrastructure like battery and poles
Am almost there anyways just need 2000 screws more
Build it somewhere where there is a lot of space I only have like 24 gen
Ye on the beach
And now I'm a fuel gen and I'm ok
How much coal/minute does mk2 drill do on normal coal deposit
i still haven't place my train, can someone tell me if i can travel with the train?
I built it over the void next to a waterfall
Won't last long if you have a decent size factory plus you will be overclocking all ur biofual gens and that makes it so that when you explore instead of your factory running it is off making it quite inefficient
the same as any other ore
Nah I don’t have a lot of factories am gonna build it after I get mk2 and infrastructure then I will make it efficient
just place it and look into the miner
I don’t have mk2 yet am asking cuz I will add the miner at the end
@golden nexus was that a uranium enricher aswell in the last screenshot?
I am preparing it
No, Its blender
what does that do
for your own mind sakes, just look at a wiki, or place the miner, open it, see the numbers, dismantle it
Yeah like there's no real need to pre plan a ton, building it in-game helps you figure out the numbers and layout
blend things but what
recipes
many things oil (and nuclear) related. Its basically a giant fluid mixer
ooo
cart is still better than mk7 conveyors
Why start later. The sooner you start the better you get. Pushing it off is just delaying your progress although I recommend you go at your own pace I still recommend switching to coal
Guys I hit the doggo 20 times I thought he was a mob how do i tame him back
🔥
Guys I hit the doggo 20 times I thought he was a mob how do i tame him back
is he dead on the floor
I hit u 20 times
Please dont spam
Yes
dude you cant bring back a dead thing
Guys he hit the doggo 20 times he thought he was a mob how does he tame him back

Yes help
Ts gonna be a copy pasta
Can I find another doggo or am done for
You can find more yeah
you can find more
just play a bit, instead of asking thousands things
It'll respawn Guys he hit the doggo 20 times he thought he was a mob how does he tame him back
So one example you can see in the oil is you can turn Crude -> HOR -> Diluted Fuel -> Turbo Fuel (the big stack of red ref's). This is done on a 300/min node which makes enough turbo fuel to run the 20 fuel gens (which are all at 200%) as well as provide drone fuel
Digs up stuff and acts cute
Lol
:3
If he doesn’t dig diamonds I don’t need him
I heard there was some lizard doggos looking for their mother ☠️
Oh no
@clear tartan It does like 300/min crude -> 400/min HOR -> 800/min fuel -> turbo fuel
You’ll have to find another one because you hit it 20 times you thought it was a mob and you need to know how to tame it back
sir, your dna is backwards.
interesting
HOR my beloved
its how you get a lot of power
Does the coal generators make everything automatic when it comes to fuel if you add wires to it?
yes
Ok thanks
do you do nuclear?
i have done
ooo
more or less yes
Wat
if you have stable inputs then yeah
but do you pefer fuel gens?
Why do most people go for 300m³ on crude? Is there anything wrong with 600m³?
Better not to say it out loud
Ok
btw.. the other pwer gen you see with the stacks of fuel gen.. thats only half done 🙂 and all the gens are at 250% i had to stop to automate power shards
nope, I prefere nuclear actually, but you need enough power to get nuclear to run
No what’s HOR
Heavy Oil Residue
Ah
You also need enough effective infrastrucutre to make uclear run
do you know how much power you need it to run?
I see it as turning oil into more oil
nuclear is so much better than coal, ionized fuel is mid
Somthing you dont call a woman
Anyone have an answer to my crude oil question?
Ohhhhhh yes right
No
nope, no idea. But if you do big nuclear per generator you get 7,500 when they run at 250%. A very basic 300/min uranium node can make you 10 generators easy with sloops.... with the default recipies
Do you have a gen on the highest mountain
interesting to know
If you use all 2,100 uranium you get a lot more 🙂
There really isn't a lot of Uranium on the map
You also get a lot more problems..... like nuclear waste reprocessing becomes a problem
That's why overclocking is very recommend
pro tip : you can underclock to match the resource consumption to the input you get
Satisfactory But Every Resource Is Unstable
When you start to have large scale nuclear, you start to need to have multiple waste reprocessing sites
even just 1 reprocessing place can cut down quite a bit of nuclear waste
I found a lot while exploring it hurts
you need alot of reprocessors though
What about the final upgrade rod doesn't that do good or is it like the final fual upgrade where the cons outway the pros
im like 90% sure ||ficsonium|| is completely perfect for power
no waste
Especially in swamp and Especially Especially in south side swamp
dont know, have not done the ficsonium
Yeah but it lasts one minute so its iffy
I think
1 minute and no waste is still awesome for power though
no waste to treat after that
yeah, they generate no waste
@golden nexus do you have a gen on top of the highest mountain on the map
The abyss hungers for random shit that u don’t want
nope
putting batteries over a hole in the map would be a good idea wouldnt it
What if you put them on the jet pack and then they melt from the heat
Am literally doing 90% of the things manually
heavily unlikely for a jetpack to melt rocket fuel canisters that fast
Don’t
Nuclear waste reprocessing becomes a nightmare cause you often need more than one site and you start having to rail waste across the map
if you are crafting, stop
What if it just uses the plastics as fuel
automate EVERYTHING
Exactly, that’s the entire point of the game
than automate that stuff
why is my biofuel burning so slow
I think the max theory for game is 75TW of power
I will after I finish tier 4
No do it now
biofuel gens don't run on full blast. if your consumption is below your capacity they consume slower
No
NO; NOW!
Biomass burner only burn as necessary. So if you are only using 15MW out of the 30, it will burn at half speed.
putting batteries over a hole in the map would be a good idea wouldnt it?
I am fully convinced @eager harbor is just ragebaiting
There is actually a molten lizard dogo that's always attached to you it just turns invisible when it gets looked at cuz its shy it shares the containers with the other lizard dogos so that's why they dig up plastic and they feed the rocket fual containers that's why they dig up metal products they give them to the master crafter lizard doggo to make them
As long as you don't drop them 😉
(But really. You can build anything in a hole).
My lizard doggo escaped my drap idk how
You couldn't know cuz it gets shy when you look at it @split pewter
is there a reason why my trains sometimes just dont wanna dock with my stations? been tryna set up this train line and the trains js dont wanna dock for some reason
then how do YOU know
But how do YOU know
just realized u cant just endlessly connect manifolds how much u want because u would run into the issue of belt throttling lol is there an easy fix for this?
Wall has to be 2m high around it and there can't be things inside that it could stand on
does line end just at the end of the station?
idk maybe just dont use manifolds...
More belts
Basically if you get let's game it out into the game he brakes the game so much that the doggo becomes amazed so it shows itself
No
there is "approaches" to it
needs more details
nah i connected it up to my main train line
I swear am waiting to finish t4
than you've doomed yourself. gtfo
There was a little hole but I don't think he could've fit I lost him like 4 days after getting it
"oh yeah heres my friend josh"
Hey there it’s Josh welcome to Let’s Game it Out
i basically built a iron smelter manifold that supposedly produces 1350 ingots. The manifolds have 2 output lines that are running on only mk.4 belts, thus, throttling
More belts
bring him bacK!!!!!
And also if the dogos dont get rid of it then @eager harbor steals it and bangs it on their head that's why they dont automate things
what recipie?
iron alloy
If you really want you can see tamed lizard doggo locations on scim if you load your save there. Other than that yeah oof sorry
to hell with load balancers
Manifold on top
Lol I am waiting to get expanded power infrastructure to make coal generators then make auto steel farm

A second line of manifolds
divide your machines together ingot groups which your belts can support
Am almost there just need 4000 more screws
Vertical manifolds
just automate everything from the start. this is an automation game

why didnt i think of that looool
I will after power infrastructure
no, now
You set up rows of vertical manifolds
Make the coal gens then get EPI
So you probably want outputs of 450/min. You should have a multiple of that eg 450x3 = 1350.
Gaming with doc my beloved
with my coal gewns now actually workin I am Producing 600 MW of power as I targetted the MW at 100 for 6 gens
What is epi
Expanded Power Infrastructure
Oh I am almost there am manually crafting stuff so I can’t leave it and do CG
@hollow sluice How things get organized downstream also matters.... like what does downstream expect in ingots. Cause an approach is to make things take 450? Or 375/min per "cluster"
We shouldn't feed the troll

Brother🥀🥀🥀
I mean he doesn't seem like he's suffering so it's fine
Dont feed the troll
Eh true
#Dontfeedthetroll
i figured i could use a couple more belts downstream, and just use belt compressors when necessary. Since I did hook up the smelter directly to a line of pipe and rod manifolds
#Dontfeedthetroll is real
MORE
BELTS
450 is a way nicer number than 375 which is the next step down. Since 450 is a multiple of 30. Most iron things like "30" eg plates = 15 construcotrs. But how you build floors/bank of machines also has to be design to be aware of this
Manual is kinda op
#Dontfeedthetroll

#Dontfeedthetroll
I’ve already crafted 15000 screws
Then go manually revive yourself #Dontfeedthetroll
💀
Your feeding the troll 😉
Bro is kinda correct lol but for some things yeah
so basically, 3 mk. 4 belts – one per manifold layer? (if i actually do just stack them on top of each other)
Mb #Dontfeedthetroll
I hand craft the 100 oscilators for the mam
I am crafting the modular things
But they take 16 hits bruh
Yeah for some things that you just need a bit of hand crafting is nice
