satisfactory

[karmic veldt]

Use the blueprint mk1

[latent prawn]

all of mine are direct belted into rotors, so meh, doesn't count

[normal trench]

i will, its just a lot of screws, im going to have to set up multiple lines to fuel rotor production

[karmic veldt]

You will thanks me later, but each time you make a factory, use the mk1 blueprint modeler

[normal trench]

i already do

[karmic veldt]

I failed to do this for 3 phase and i'm doing it on phase 4

[normal trench]

but i only have mk 3 belts

ahg

[unkempt blade]

Yeah you only get to play the game for the first time once. Trying to get too sweaty with perfect recipes messes up that experience imo

[karmic veldt]

Lol, I still use these

[normal trench]

3 lines full of screws

[white dawn]

The best way to deal with screws (IMO) is: when a machine needs screws, make exactly that amount of screws right in front of the machine which needs it

Don't try to "centralize" screw production and route them around your factory

That's one of the main reasons why people end up hating screws, 'cause doing that with such a high-volume item when you have slower belts is, of course, a recipe for pain.

[normal trench]

yeah the issue is im trying to balanceee perfectly

[karmic veldt]

I did that at the beginning, it's a mess

[white dawn]

But that's just the game saying "Don't Do That, Then."

[latent prawn]

same advice applies to quickwire & wire

[white dawn]

Like literally: a machine needs 50/min screws? Make 50/min screws right in front of that machine.

[karmic veldt]

I don't even recognize my first factory. It's like I never had that son.

[white dawn]

If you've got a line of those, then yeah, blueprints can definitely help plonk that down pretty quickly, etc.

[normal trench]

i cant

cause if i do that my lines become unbalanced

[latent prawn]

wait, isn't that the same amount that the cast screw recipe makes?

[white dawn]

Oh I definitely did too. :D

[normal trench]

wait, i can just extend the manifold

[karmic veldt]

Wanna see the beast ? It's still running

[normal trench]

i can make one half of the manifold go downstairs. and the other moves upstairs

[unkempt blade]

obligatory "cast screws is the best recipe in the game"

[white dawn]

Heh, sure, though I have no doubt it'll look essentially familiar. :D

[white dawn]

You can still "balance perfectly" while building something right in front of the next machine. :)

[latent prawn]

where does that leave iron alloy so that you double your screws?

[white dawn]

You're just balancing Ingots/Rods/SteelBeams instead of Screws, and you'll have a much easier time doing it that way. :)

[normal trench]

hard to explain, issue with my factories set up

[unkempt blade]

when you need to double your screws you switch from cast to aluminum beams + steel screws

[normal trench]

i got it at least

[latent prawn]

meh, aluminum has better uses

[white dawn]

If you haven't finished this production line, then the factory's not fully "set up" yet. There's still time! 🥳

[kindred pumice]

Hi, do we have an idea about when 1.2 gonna be ready ?

[latent prawn]

soon™

[kindred pumice]

Like do the previous versions have been launch the same time

[white dawn]

Not really, though definitely not for a few weeks at least. Outside estimate could be months still. :)

[normal trench]

i know, its hard to explain

i figured it out though

[kindred pumice]

End of Mai or june

[white dawn]

It's varied. Mostly it's been something like 1-4 months after the initial Experimental launch, though some updates have taken longer (lookin' at you, Update 8!)

[latent prawn]

by soon i mean not yet

[kindred pumice]

i know, soon can be 1 months or 3

[unkempt blade]

than screws? I find that hard to believe!

[white dawn]

I do think that CSS is hoping that this week's Exp patch will be the last one before public v1.2. But we'll see, and that doesn't necessarily mean that v1.2 launch will be quick

[karmic veldt]

Here what it looks like, it's born like this it was not an accident :
#screenshots message

[unkempt blade]

Just remember, 1.2 is always going to release tomorrow. You just have to believe hard enough

[white dawn]

Heh, yep, feels like first-playthrough Home. :D

[toxic lichen]

why me water not watering ;-;

got 2 pipes feeding 8 coal gens (180/min to 180/min x2)

got pumps for the headlift
but the water flowing into 1 of the sets of 4 is just
not keeping up with the gens usage

is there some magical priority thing with the T-junction pipe connectors?

[white dawn]

For pipe problems, you nearly always need screenshots -- start a thread in #1038092680493801533 and post there

Remember you can detach the camera in photo mode to get some nice overhead views of the pipes

[unkempt blade]

1. it's glorious
2. it's giving funhouse because of the ramps and angles 😆

[karmic veldt]

I, nevertheless, am admirative of the splitter manifold I did on the miner side: ore goes to one splitter, then two, then 6...

It could have been 18, then 54...

[karmic veldt]

That's how I rolled back in the time

[white dawn]

(I hope you didn't take "first-playthrough" to be a dig or anything. :D)

[karmic veldt]

A dig ?

[white dawn]

A criticism, etc. :)

[toxic lichen]

apparently?

the pipe floor hole things can fuck with flow rate?

[karmic veldt]

Oh absolutely not, the truth tend to not bother me

[white dawn]

Shouldn't do; that was an old bug which was fixed up 'round v1.0

[karmic veldt]

I still consider this as my main hub

[white dawn]

(actually took a few patches after v1.0, I think, to get fully stomped out, but they should be fine now)

[toxic lichen]

i did make a post in questions and stuff

[karmic veldt]

I do a lot of pièce I need for building

[ornate saffron]

the only time ive had issues with floor holes is when a pump was to close

[toxic lichen]

pumps are def not close

[karmic veldt]

And going from/to my grass field hub, to pétrole hub, Electronic hub or aluminium hub etc is less than 23 seconds of hypertube

ah the link worked

[mighty zephyr]

@white dawn bunny hop is peak

i just learned that shi. insane speeds

[white dawn]

People do seem to like that, yeah

I'm actually not super fond of "breaking" the game like that, so I don't do it myself. :)

It's not an FPS; I can take a little longer to enjoy the scenery

[mighty zephyr]

bush collection 🙏

[unkempt blade]

I get it, I only use regular fuel in my jetpack because it makes the parkour more fun 😆

[mighty zephyr]

am.i ever really going to need iron ingots other than for the rods? cus i might just automate it so it makes iron plates instead..

[rough crest]

you will need iron ingots for a lot of recipes

[earnest condor]

Define "the vast majority of all things"?

[ornate saffron]

Iron is the mopst common ore as it is the backbone of the game

[mighty zephyr]

havent needed the ingots for anything but the rods so far

[karmic veldt]

@toxic lichen 20 minutes later he will shoot portals and talk to glados

[toxic lichen]

did i miss a chapter

[earnest condor]

This game has chapters? 👀

[paper folio]

hello

[stone python]

hello

[ornate saffron]

just build to need atm worry about the future later ^_^

[mint cradle]

restarting in the desert is fun so far

[mighty zephyr]

i have so nany iron ingots so i needa craft those mfs out 😭

2304 of the ingots 😒

[wise forge]

let them go, you can get more

[mighty zephyr]

nah im mass producing them into plates now 😝

[karmic veldt]

We also follow a lot the story of ore and metals usage in history of mankind, after stone age. At first we discovered bronze which is mostly mixes of copper with softer metals and it's commonly said to be the origin but we think we discovered bronze, coper, tin etc because they have low température of fusion, so it's probable that After discovering fire, humans observerd that rocks "bleeded". And we were curious.

After we have iron age, but as the température of fusion is really really high, we needed to use soufflet, a tool made with animals dead remains (stomac etc) to get flammes to higher températures.

After that follow a long période of upgrading our tools and knowledge, about mixing ores, creating and forging...

Coal has been used for a long moment in history, it's industrialisation is récent but it's usage is very old.

After that, we continued acquiring knowledge, experimenting etc until two major discovery: électricity, and gas/oil, around the xvii (Alessandro volta is considered as the precursor, around 1600, then it gave a lot of space for a lot of ingenious people to expériment and discover new things). Until Edison, the discovery of ac current, public lighting that changed the society forever...

For oil it's a bit random, we discovered it could burn because eventualy, some oil réserves may burn on it's own because of the accumulation of gaz, that is a lot more inflammable than oil itself. But when we discovered that oily black burning substance, our instinct was obviously to extract it, imagine: no more wood to cut, we juste have to make a liquid burn. That's why a lot of people studied the oil subject, and discovered polymères, that completely changed our world, octane that completely changed the way we travel, and gaz, that changed the way we produce and stock energy.

[reef basin]

Don't make stuff you don't need

[karmic veldt]

About this if you Ask me, I would say that fuel and gas isnt the main game changer of humanity: it is plastic and polymers.

Plastics and polymers are the fundamentals of our actual modern society

Without it, public health and doctors would make a 100 years leap back in time. Without plastic and polymères we are mostly fucked.

I think all of that is beautiful.

[ornate saffron]

I think this is a topic for #off-topic-general

[karmic veldt]

That's all what history of mankind inspire you ?

[trim perch]

Without plastics we wouldn't have a garbage patch the size of France in the middle of the Pacific and microplastics in the high Alps.

[mortal ginkgo]

Do you know what is actually beautiful though?

You. ❤️

[karmic veldt]

Nah. You clearly don't know what you're talking about

[mortal ginkgo]

Considering there is only one of you and always will be one of you, this very fact makes you actually more precious than the universe itself. Not the mention of your arrival which is one in millions of chance where a race is actually won.

While you can't be valuable as much as an impure limestone node, you should not sell yourself short.

[rich harbor]

Ey can someone help out first time doing trains but the unloading freight station is literally just not working idk what to do like driving works fine it just doesnt unload😭

[neat anvil]

You need to set the station to load/unload

Depending on what you need

[rich harbor]

Ik it is on unload tho

[low ingot]

the same station the cart you want to unload has to be in the same spot as the next station you want it unloaded at if that makes sense

so you have 3 carts, 1st one loads at 1st station, goes to unload station.. to unload the 1st cart, the 3 station has to be set to unload

[rich harbor]

Its just 1 Track

[neat anvil]

Also a train can’t dock into a station if is facing the front side

[low ingot]

i need someone certified in MS paint to respond 🙁

[neat anvil]

Make sure the train is going into the correct side

[earnest condor]

Picture of drop off station? (in #screenshots )

[worn oar]

First check the orientation of the station. Flat side in, round side out

[low ingot]

one station has 3 freight cars. you load the farthest one to the left only. you go to the 2nd train station... it has 3 stations as well... but the farthest right is not where the cart will have to unload.... you have to set the farthest left station on the 2nd station to unload in order for it to get that one cart unloaded....

[rich harbor]

I sent it

The other stations work fine so i prob did that on that station

[earnest condor]

So you want the middle car to unload into a platform that is not aligned with the middle car?

[rich harbor]

I think

[earnest condor]

Put the freight platform where the freight car stops and as long as it is set to Unload you should be good.

Right now when the train stops the freight car is on the empty platform.

[rich harbor]

Lemme try that thx btw

[earnest condor]

👍

[rich harbor]

OMG TY i get it now i didnt see that empty platform 😭

[earnest condor]

I have yet to meet a Train puzzle I cannot solve 😄

[plucky bone]

Is there an altimeter in the game?

[earnest condor]

Forgive my ignorance, but what is an altimeter?

[plucky bone]

Measures altitude

[earnest condor]

Ah, not anywhere on your UI unless you enable the debug stuff.

The game does know how high you are, it just doesn't believe you need to know.

[plucky bone]

Ah. Well it should. Would be nice to match up heights for say a conveyor tray, pipes etc.

[earnest condor]

Match up how? Locally you can just use 4m Foundation heights to measure things and build at exact heights, no?

[plucky bone]

Like using a million zoops halfway across the map to set a building height.

Like a tray from factory to factory thing at a consistent height.

[earnest condor]

Genuine: Why does something halfway across the map care about the height of other things on the map?

[earnest condor]

If connecting via tray, are you not already zooping a million zoops anyway?

Is this some World Grid shit?

[plucky bone]

True I guess.

I do use world grid yes but that has nothing to do with it. It would be for say I go to factory X and see the height then go to factory Y and see if it matches before wasting a ton of time zooping.

[karmic veldt]

We should have the possiblility to have the blueprint grid handy

[earnest condor]

You're building cross-map belts I take it?

[plucky bone]

Height knowledge would be nice.

Not cross map but some are far yes.

[earnest condor]

I am not at all disagreeing with this, just to clarify.

[placid stirrup]

SCIM makes this a trivial task

[earnest condor]

But... Truck. Train. Drone... 😭

[plucky bone]

Been there done that.

[placid stirrup]

Agreed that the goal seems a bit silly, but who am I to judge

[plucky bone]

I'm making an unusual factory.

[hard wolf]

normal = boring

[earnest condor]

If they add it, would be nice.
Unfortunately I don't see them putting it on the priority list.

[placid stirrup]

No need to explain yourself, I'm currently stealing building the moon

[karmic veldt]

Guys, don't fight, you are both wrong

[earnest condor]

Who is fighting?

I fully support what he wants.

[karmic veldt]

Oh ok nvm, then fight !!!

[hard wolf]

this might be a good time to consider infinite zoop

[plucky bone]

Not in 1.2

[hard wolf]

😩

[karmic veldt]

Cpu be like: 😰

[earnest condor]

Don't give in to the will of the council.
See through the mods of the Jedi.

[plucky bone]

Yup. It already is a turbofan.

Heavy on the GPU for sure.

[hard wolf]

I jokingly asked my partner if I should save up for a threadripper just to get Modeler to calculate faster

[mint cradle]

96 cores

[karmic veldt]

We should add a pvm mode with waves of monster and unlimited Guns

[earnest condor]

Threadripper? Those are the things that help clean out sewing machines when they jam, right? 😏

[mint cradle]

that wouldnt be satisfactory atp

[karmic veldt]

And, she wants to get to the bank Monday ?

[karmic veldt]

Not on satisfactory, on discord 🫣

[rapid briar]

is it possible on pc to share a world so that the other can start without the other need to be online

[karmic veldt]

I swear I hate those cats from the bottom of my balls

[hard wolf]

no, but it might be more cost effective to get a used Epyc CPU and code my own version specifically around multi threading xwx

[lapis knot]

iirc dedicated servers are a thing

[earnest condor]

Depends, do you want it back so you can play on it more?

[elfin smelt]

I mean using the internet nowdays is a constant battle of people vs machine (bots)

[earnest condor]

Or do you just want to give someone a world that has a headstart?

[karmic veldt]

You can send your save

[plucky bone]

The green ones are just nasty.

[rapid briar]

no like a shared world so one can play without the other to be online

[earnest condor]

is worse than

[mint cradle]

alrighty solid biofuel time

[hard wolf]

it's like, the AMD CPU between desktop grade and server grade

[karmic veldt]

Use swiss transfer it's an internet website to send heavy files

[lapis knot]

What cats

[earnest condor]

That's dedicated server.

[karmic veldt]

Well

I'm harvesting EME

[earnest condor]

I was making a joke given the original meaning of "thread" 😭

[plucky bone]

Use arachnaphobia mode.

[karmic veldt]

Is that a threat ?

[lapis knot]

Oooh hoho, you mean the spiders

🕷️

[plucky bone]

Bingo

[rapid briar]

is paid right? is there a way to just host the world on the hosts pc?

[earnest condor]

How in the fuck is a language pun a threat???

[karmic veldt]

I don't have arachnophobia

At least in vidéo game. But...

[lapis knot]

I've gotten so used to seeing them jumpscare me that I'm now immune to it

[plucky bone]

Me neither but it does make them way easier to see.

[lapis knot]

I love their design though

[karmic veldt]

It was so fucking funny to see those méga big cat head

[earnest condor]

Is paid or you need a 3rd pc to host at all times.
If want to "host on hosts PC" -- that person has to always be on for either player to play.

[plucky bone]

Yep. And when you stick a nobelisk to em they complain. Lol

[karmic veldt]

Let's use Hamachi like before

[mint cradle]

yo why the hell do the trees in the dune desert give 200 wood for each of them

[lapis knot]

I still remember when they added spiders jumping into the game and it genuinly scared me the first time they jumped at me xD

[rapid briar]

but is there a way for example have a world where two people are on it and everyone can start the server and the first person to join hosts it on thier pc

[earnest condor]

No.

Not without a LOT of emailing.

[rapid briar]

ok

[karmic veldt]

Maybe cause you have less coal so the game give you opportunity to get a lot of fuel ?

[rapid briar]

to what

[karmic veldt]

That's called a LAN

(yes I was born in 90)

[earnest condor]

Person A starts file.
Person B joins.

When Person A leaves, the session ends. If B wants to keep playing, A needs to email them the world files so they can continue.

If B hosts next, fine.
If A wants to host again, B has to email back the new worldfile they continued before A boots it up.
And so on, and so forth.

[rich harbor]

Ty works perfectly also should i be scared for phase 4 doing the adaptive control units rn

[earnest condor]

So you can either always track who played last and make sure you email the most updated world file every time.
Or just dedicated.

[worn oar]

Phase 4 is the longest

[earnest condor]

Shouldn't be scared of anything 🤷‍♂️ The game is just basic arithmetic. It never even gets to algebra.

[hard wolf]

or convince everyone to use syncthing

[mint cradle]

its gonna take me a while to get back near the end of phase 3 lol

[karmic veldt]

It's not this big of a deal. I have to make some for phase 4 and I know I already have 3 container full of them. And you know what ? I will make a brande new factory for that

Pleasure of building > pleasure of accomplishing the tasks

[mint cradle]

also its a game everything should be fun

you just get to play the game longer

[rich harbor]

I hate how i cant reuse any of my old builds yk

[mint cradle]

= more fun

[rough crest]

if you dont wantt to pay for dedicated servers and your pc or your friends can handle it you could try to use tunneling services

[karmic veldt]

I have a train. I could send all my units by train

I dont. Too easy

[rough crest]

i havent tried it in satisfactory as we are only playing in lan but i was hosting for friends modded minecraft and it worked like a charm

[karmic veldt]

Hamachi ? 🥰

[rough crest]

note that i am using 2 different machines tho 1 play on 1 hosts the game servers of any games i like

[lapis knot]

I dare one of the arachnophobia users to turn it off

[rough crest]

cause what was always so annoying to setup was stuff like portforwarding and letting people connect directly to you but you take that away with tunneling

[karmic veldt]

Pardon our ignorance mr richy rich

[mint cradle]

lol

[karmic veldt]

(i'm joking)

[mint cradle]

imma try and get back to the point as was at in like 40 hours

[lapis knot]

Goodluck!

[mint cradle]

i was only at the 75 percent point of phase 3

[rough crest]

just speedrun the game in a giga factory and once you're done and unlocked everything start building cool stuff

that's what i am doing

[mint cradle]

how do you even do that lol

[karmic veldt]

Wait. @rough crest . Are you....

Are you the Bay Harbor Butcher ???!

[rough crest]

avoid wasting time with everything that is not essential and bring every new resource you unlock every time in the base

[mint cradle]

i was lowk planning on building modular factories

and making a train line to a central storage area

[rough crest]

its cool but it takes a lot of time cause you dont have access to later technologies

[mint cradle]

so you speed run the tiers then start doing stuff

[rough crest]

im transitioning to modular factories now that i have my main base that produces stuff

[mint cradle]

got it

[rough crest]

i think its way better in any game to try to push progression before starting to think big

cause you have better tools but thats just how i see it you can definitely succeed by building modular factories and spread out from the start

[mint cradle]

i mean i have a main save thats near the end of phase 3 but i just dont like playing on it anymore

[rough crest]

its kind of like you start building castles houses and stuff in minecraft without having diamond tools and elytra which techinically is the end of the game but it makes playing after so much easier

[mint cradle]

thats why i restarted in the dune desert

[karmic veldt]

I know it's harder with ennemies ?

They are more violent

[mint cradle]

the humble passive mode

[karmic veldt]

I swear I want to put this mode. But I want the exploration part to be at least dangerous

[rough crest]

its always better to fix stuff you already have than start from the ground up

[mint cradle]

i just dont like that save anymore

i dont have fun on it anymore

[rough crest]

if you do that too many times because you think you can do better the previous step you will get burnt out and stop playing cause you dont see progression

my main base is looking like shi right now i tried decorating but its just spaghetti

[mint cradle]

this is my first time doing it

[rough crest]

but it has served its purpose

[karmic veldt]

It's incredible how much purple powerslugs there is in the swamps

[stiff fable]

How do I enter content for the community showcase on live streams?

[whole ermine]

Would it be more convient for me later on to do two pipelines likke this or one big pipeline? for context im taking water from the waterfalls around the west of the dune desert

[vague osprey]

is there still no benefit to using trucks instead of trains in 1.2

[rough crest]

guys im almost done covering the map with my transit tube network a couple more lines and it should be good coverage :DDD

ive been doing this all day and had to take a break and build a fuel power plant cause otherwise id have become a robot

[whole ermine]

fluid trucks hold mmore than fluid cars

[rough crest]

but this takes a looooot of time

[mint cradle]

ok now that i got foundations imma build vertically

[karmic veldt]

"a couple more lines and it should be good coverage"

🧐🤔

[rough crest]

ill send screenshot

[karmic veldt]

Nah I was just telling myself that sounds Sketchy, like drug usage

[rough crest]

like im thinking finishing that horizontal line up to the right and another one vertically that cuts where the nuclear power plant is and basically i covered the map in these boxes

my idea is that you can get of the tube at any intersection

and go where you please kind of fast

once i produce singularities reliably the most important pois will be connected by portals as well but this is good to build new stuff fast as well

also i sent another screenshot of a close up of the main base that produces every item in the game thats what i meant by like speedrunning the game to unlock everything

[hard wolf]

they're really good and you unlock them earlier. even tractors. I currently have one tractor bringing in all 2x normal & 2x impure coal nodes worth of mk2 miners from the northern area in the rocky desert and it's really nice :3

it's also a lot less infrastructure to set up than trains

[rough crest]

hate me but ive always just built conveyors even over longer distances

[karmic veldt]

Wow

Nice grid

[rough crest]

i have 75km of belts in my save

[karmic veldt]

I have 2 main hypertube grid, with 21 seconds and 14 seconds of travel time

[rough crest]

id say reroll

[karmic veldt]

And I tought it was a pain in the ass already

[karmic veldt]

Nah, turbo fuel is pretty interesting

[rough crest]

what you are looking for imo is good fuel recipes (unfortunately not that one) like diluted fuel, nitro rocket fuel, heavy oil residue

it is interesting but rocket is way better

for 1 extra step

[karmic veldt]

I already have diluted fuel and hor

[rough crest]

actually with nitro rocket fuel recipe its same amount of steps if you can find it

[karmic veldt]

I have a fuel generator plant, 80 generator... Only one pure node

[rough crest]

i have 288 generator for a NORMAL node

[karmic veldt]

Turbofuel may be interesting also to make fuel for the jetpack

[hard wolf]

there's no wrong way to play this game :P I haven't set up proper highways yet, so atm I have icky floating roads and tight turns. I like preserving the environment, so it's either highways and nova curves or just vehicle pathways on dirt (but I prefer highways bc terrain and it's also an opportunity to make something nice x3)

[karmic veldt]

What is the process ?

[rough crest]

hor -> diluted fuel -> nitro rocket fuel are the recipes

sent a screenshot as well i really recommend

super simple to set up as well

imo its the absolute best way to generate power

[karmic veldt]

Mine is oil to HOR, 3 oil for 4 hor
Then mixer with diluted fuel, downgraded to 80% to get 80 water, 4 hor, egal 80 m3 fuel

[plucky bone]

O boy. I bet youd be cringe at my power setups. Lol use the most inefficient recipes RN for some reason. Waiting to build a big plant. Or nuclear. Dunno yet.

[rough crest]

this one needs 10 refineries and 16 blenders for processing. thats it

[karmic veldt]

If you struggle to manage a simple plant, nuclear is pretty hard to manage...

[rough crest]

its all alt recipes tho and it takes a while to find them im at like 70 hard drives scanned

but you might be luckier

[karmic veldt]

I dont go full atomic because of this

It's pretty difficult to set up

[rough crest]

and hard part 288 generators ofc

[plucky bone]

No struggles. Just why make a big fuel plant to just upgrade it later or make another. Need a few factories then building a big turbo plant I think.

[karmic veldt]

You can check the HDD numbers only on the save editor ?

Or there is a stat in game ?

[rough crest]

i splitted like this 4 blenders feed 1 floor of 144 generators which are disposed as a rectangle of 18x8

and it looks kind of clean

[hard wolf]

overclocking helps a lot with that, if you're not already

[rough crest]

https://satisfactory-calculator.com/en/interactive-map#5.5;-68934;267510|gameLayer| upload your save here and it tells you everything thats how i made those screenshots

every power slug mercer sphere or hdd collected every structure every player everything

it might spoil the game for you tho cause it tells you where stuff is if you look too closely and once you know it

[karmic veldt]

Yeah I know I'm just a wanker that doesn't want to get out of the game to check

[rough crest]

you know it cause the game map is always the same

[karmic veldt]

Ok I saw the recipe I have 2/3 of it lol

[lapis knot]

High speed connectors

[rough crest]

so i just look at it for the grid and disabled all the other details like where resources are (im covering the entire map in radar towers anyways lol so i dont have to scan ever again) or interesting stuff

my friend found 155 mercer spheres in total and told me he had a lof of fun exploring

while i just go from the sky with my tubes and when i see something i need i just make stairs down get it and leave with my tubes to be the most efficient lol

[karmic veldt]

Lol at the beginning I tought it was a générative process, when I learned the map was handcrafted at first I was disappointed, but then I embraced the fact that it was done by people who tought of everything

[rough crest]

but he carried cause dimensional storage is game changer

[karmic veldt]

I'm collecting EME to unlock dimensionnal depot

[rough crest]

cause i put a dimensional uploader at every step in my giga starter base and boom now i have every item in the game being uploaded to my inventory automatically

[karmic veldt]

Don't tell @earnest condor he will accuse me of cheating

[restive umbra]

I have 10 concrete uploaders and it does me pretty well

[earnest condor]

What the fuck?

[rough crest]

so if you upload from different uploaders it stacks the upload speed?

[restive umbra]

yeah it uploads faster

[karmic veldt]

Does it work when cloudflare is down ?

[rough crest]

cause i have 1 uploader for every resource literally but i have max upgrades on upload speed

[earnest condor]

Dimensional Depot is not cheating.
Lying about my opinion on things is just... shit behaviour.
Directly tagging me as you lie about me is just... wrong.
So... why?

[rough crest]

but i wonder was it better to invest those mercer sphere on more uploaders instead of the upgrade then lol

[restive umbra]

max upload speed can be limiting if you're trying to build quick

[karmic veldt]

Dude that was a joke

[rough crest]

my concrete is faster than i can build

maybe im slow

[earnest condor]

Lying about me is not a joke and will never be taken as such.
Please keep that in mind for the future.

[zinc solar]

is it more efficient to add power shards to biomass burners or to build more?

[karmic veldt]

Like, I accuse myself of cheating if you remember the day correctly and our discussion this afternoon

[lapis knot]

Just means you have a gigachad concrete factory

[restive umbra]

I do like my wet concrete refinery spam

[earnest condor]

Yes. Which is why saying it was my opinion and not your own is false.

[karmic veldt]

It's obvious that i'm not seriouslu saying you will accuse me of cheating, but wathever

[lapis knot]

Wet concrete my beloved

[restive umbra]

🤤

[rough crest]

i love wet recipes

[earnest condor]

Rubber Concrete my beloved.

[rough crest]

you just multiply stuff with water

and water is so free

[karmic veldt]

I tought it would annoy you a bit but like, it was plain kidding. Anyway sorry if that bothered you to this point.

[rough crest]

thats good info tho cause i could use faster upload speed on motors for example

putting down those 288 generators today took me 5 different sessions

[restive umbra]

it's great

[earnest condor]

It did. But we are good so long as the boundary is respected moving forwards.

[rough crest]

cause i was waiting for motors lol

[restive umbra]

love generator spam

[hard wolf]

imo upgrades offer more value early on, but both is probably good. concrete feeding into 4 base depots is still painfully slow, but having more storage space and doing other stuff like exploring/planning while it fills kind of mitigates that

[restive umbra]

I'll definitely be boosting motor upload when I get there on this playthrough

[rough crest]

it needs to get bigger but look its a great start

[restive umbra]

288 can carry you to the end of the game

[rough crest]

in screenshots scroll a bit up

im already in the endgame

[earnest condor]

Why 288 when you can 288 @ 2.5 😉

[rough crest]

i never understood why people needed so much power i finished with 40GW

[karmic veldt]

I don't know what would be the pleasure for me to accuse someone of something on a text tchat where everything Can be checked and why I would talk badly of someone while @ him 😄

[rough crest]

im against overclocking

ill just place another 288

[earnest condor]

Because...?

[restive umbra]

because bigger number make me smile 🙂

[rough crest]

it will look way better

the factory must grow

[restive umbra]

mine looks similar to that but all my refineries/blenders are vertically stacked so the products all fall down

[earnest condor]

Meet enough people and you'll find the ones who live for doing that 🤷‍♂️

[karmic veldt]

I'm getting tired I tought you were talking about pc

[rough crest]

what do you want to know

i know a lot of about computers from hardware to software

[restive umbra]

can it play crysis

[karmic veldt]

I'm 29 years old thank you for the advice but I think i'm good, no need to be mean.

[earnest condor]

Because sometimes I build outposts that consume 30 GW by itself not considering the rest of my outposts 😁

[rough crest]

i want more outposts

[karmic veldt]

Oh nothing I just read you and realised after 5-6 seconds that you were talking of in game overclocking

[rough crest]

i have a oil area main base area and an unfinished nuclear area

[earnest condor]

Not being mean. You said you didn't know. I explained. No emotion was involved.

[rough crest]

give me some ideas for more pois

[restive umbra]

also I'm truckmaxxing this playthrough

[karmic veldt]

I have a bit of knowledge too about pc

[earnest condor]

Trucks are great.

[restive umbra]

I love that you can build paths that all connect instead of driving the stupid route anfdsgase

[earnest condor]

I enjoy both systems.

[rough crest]

i definitely want a singularities factory as a main project

[restive umbra]

yeah being able to record a route had its moments

like for longer stretches it would be nice

[earnest condor]

I mean in both cases you have to walk and the path anyway.

[rough crest]

but since singularities are basically the second most complex item or something it might be better to make some factories of other components firsts

what do people build usually if not rushing in a single big base

[restive umbra]

I need to make a bunch of crystal oscillators so I can use billboards

[earnest condor]

Now if Tractors had a "clearance mode" where they just consumed all rocks and trees in their path while recording... 🤤

[rough crest]

should i just replay the game on a way larger scale with alt recipes as well?

[restive umbra]

the factory must grow

[earnest condor]

Are you on 1.2?

[rough crest]

and then my singularities factory is the end result?

[hard wolf]

portal hub

[west ingot]

I just put together my first motor factory!

[rough crest]

cause like in factorio youd just make more SPM

what do i make here

[rough crest]

no

[rough crest]

what is a good amount to aim for like end game

[karmic veldt]

When you say "meet enough people and you'll find the ones who live for doing that" I don't know if my interprétation is wrong but I take it as "I am sarcasticly telling you that your lack of social life may impact your empathy", and I take it a bit as "f off and find some friends who will appreciate your humorX

[earnest condor]

When it drops or if you want to switch, enable 100x on Space Elevator. You will automatically build grander stuff to try and make it "faster" 😁

[karmic veldt]

I didn't know that

[rough crest]

ohhhh i like it

difficulty options but i want to polish my first save as well so i need a plan

[hard wolf]

make a main portal for each factory/building that takes a while to get to, and multiply that by 2

[rough crest]

elevator is already done here not like you can revert it or something

[rough crest]

the problem is i have 2 factories in total

[earnest condor]

It is "I am not assuming the life you led. I am not assuming who you have and have not met. If you have met evil people, you either did not recall they do it just to do it, or you didn't meet enough that you have that readily on file. Hence the not knowing why people would be evil for the sake of it."

[rough crest]

lol

oil outpost and main base

i think i already produce enough singularities for that single link

[hard wolf]

what about train/truck stations?

[earnest condor]

Plans have to start with end goals and solved backwards from there.

[rough crest]

0 of both

100% belts

but i already had this idea to build a train network for the new factories i wanted to build

[restive umbra]

sinking as many points as possible may be an analog to making SPM

[rough crest]

i like it

i need the statues your right thats what i have to do

[earnest condor]

Sink Points is the direct comparison to Science Points, yes.

If you're maxing that you're looking at Ballistic Warp Drives.

[rough crest]

genius i could make the most complex and rewarding item and just sink it

[hard wolf]

you could also set up a network of portal outposts (just small buildings) across the map, like 2 to 3 depending on biome size, to get around a lot faster

[earnest condor]

Portals? You mean worse Hypercannons? 😏

[rough crest]

i could make a thermal propulsion rocket factory for it just to sink

[earnest condor]

BWD is more.

[rough crest]

whats bwd

[earnest condor]

☝️

[karmic veldt]

Considering my joke was mean is a bit exagerated to me, I didn't know I was about to joke someone who has your jugemental and that your were not ready to handle text, I tought you could understand. And if not, at least not being this hurt by such little thing.

I would give you the same advice you gave me, I think you didnt meet enough people to think this is mean.

[rough crest]

oh wait the real last component

[hard wolf]

I like them more at this point. no nonsense. no having to worry about forgetting to switch back to the jetpack from the hoverpack. just in, wait a few seconds, and out

[rough crest]

what are we looking at for like 1 per second

[mint cradle]

filling a manifold at mk1 is actual torture

[rough crest]

big big scale?

decide a number and go backwards up to the raw resources yes

[mint cradle]

also thanks to sevrhan with the amazing tip of cast screws automatically being the first recipe

im making thousands already

[hard wolf]

https://www.satisfactorytools.com/1.0/production?share=5OyNWdjN9O9mwRgVt2JY

[earnest condor]

I have very few hard boundaries when interacting with people.
Lying about me or my character is one of them.

I know you were joking now, but it's just not something I am ever going to be ok with. I am sorry if this very specific thing shapes your view of all the rest of who I am, but it is what it is at this point 🤷‍♂️

[rough crest]

i was trying to calculate with 60/min but it doesnt let me

[earnest condor]

Oh I think the maximum limit is less than that, but you could always plug it into Tools.

[rough crest]

with that exact site

[rough crest]

meaning there is not enough resources on the map?

[hard wolf]

there might not be enough available resources

[earnest condor]

Correct.
Even less so if you consider what it takes to power such a setup is taking resources away from that final number.

[rough crest]

i think the max excluding power is 73/min

[karmic veldt]

I mean it's discord, it's internet, it's the kind of place where you have to leave your ego a bit. Some parts of internet are very very violent and having used internet for more than 15 years now yeah i'm surprised.

[rough crest]

cause i plugged in the website all alt recipes and maximize option

[karmic veldt]

But anyway I won't bother you again if That's so

[rough crest]

i assume the values for input resources are already set to max by default (e.g. there is 12300 bauxite in the entire world)

does that sound correct

or 92100 iron

[hard wolf]

yes

iirc there's 10200 SAM

[rough crest]

but as sevrahn pointed out we need to use something for power as well

[earnest condor]

RF using both Nitro and Base combo is the cheapest large-scale power.

[hard wolf]

don't forget sloops. at this point you might wanna use Modeler and let Tools help guide your decisions

[mint cradle]

may i ask what youre trying to make dexter

[karmic veldt]

I tried using the tool to layer the factory and being helped, but I can't, I have the impression it have a contrary effect on me: I pay less attention to the game and more on the website

[rough crest]

its interesting cause the graph is converting the only 200 reanimated sam to bauxite as well

[earnest condor]

Tools >

[rough crest]

then 1600 goes to dark matter and 750 goes to ficsite

[karmic veldt]

I'm a old dinausore I use some paper and a pen, or m'y phone notes

[rough crest]

so yeah it looks like sam is the real limiting factor in this game together with bauxite

[quick hound]

M’y lady

[karmic veldt]

I manualy search the process from the finished product to the early product, jotte down everything, and do the maths mentaly while Building

[hard wolf]

graph paper + mechanical pencil 🥴

[earnest condor]

Use SAM to make more bauxite 😉

[mint cradle]

rotring 600

[rough crest]

but its like so little just 3 mk6 conveyors

iron is a whopping 92k

i can just learn from this graph about the entire game if the website calculated correctly

it should have just selected the best of the best

all alt recipes toggled and producing the final item with maximize option with every resource in the game as input

[hard wolf]

nice. kuru toga roulette here x3

[mint cradle]

rotring so expensive only downside

but imma buy a whole bunch for college

[karmic veldt]

Hey mistress

Nice seing you back

[rough crest]

i could build that i just need a couple more recipes lol

prob would take me 1 month irl tho

[karmic veldt]

But yeah this is the kind of junk you can fin after a day of satisfactory on my desk or on my phone lol:
#screenshots message

[rough crest]

but it would be 100% exploitation of the map id be the best pioneer

[mint cradle]

are you trying to use every resource node...

[rough crest]

i mean i have the graph right here

its basically the game being solved

the numbers are not impossible honestly

hard but not impossible

like its probably under 5k machines

i thought max scale was impossible to reach but underestimated that we are not in a procedurally generated world

[mint cradle]

im liking the dune desert so far

[rough crest]

so basically ill just decide a number of bwd to build from 1 to 73. get the graph and split it into smaller graphs to build more factories and not just a giga insane mess, connec them with tubes trains portal everything and in the end sink the bwd

[mint cradle]

currently just automating the basics on a floating platform with logistics on the bottom

[outer scarab]

there is this guy that discord keeps wanting me to invite as if he is a friend. I have blocked him and it keeps showing up wtf?

[rough crest]

no mistake it cant be up to 73 cause we need power

[earnest condor]

Report to mods. 🤷‍♂️

[rough crest]

interestingly we need 1.06 TW to make 73 BWP

[karmic veldt]

Accept him as a friend, then be the weirdest person possible

[rough crest]

so we need to find the new max of bwp considering power

[outer scarab]

he isnt requesting to be a friend either

[karmic veldt]

He will leave by his own

[outer scarab]

I talked to him he doesnt know why its showing up either

[karmic veldt]

I didn't understand

[rough crest]

if i was making 15 BWD id already have enough power and thats 1 every 4 seconds not bad

for example

which is 723k points per second or 43 million points per minute

[latent prawn]

late game also gets really tight on quartz and coal. diamonds/time crystal are meatballs

time crystal ends up being needed to make dm crystal out of the residue your other processes kick off and it all kind of conspires to make you start converting ores with sam

[rough crest]

bro i need to integrate to find out how much coupons i need to get 1k for the statue lol

i didnt know these increased in cost as you print more guess thats why i dont have a lot anymore lol

[mint cradle]

Restarting isn’t even that bad ngl

[rough crest]

nah i need the statue 100% tho

thats an actual item to collect and put like the main portal hub or something

[latent prawn]

well, i mean, i'm in phase 3 and just kicking smart plate/autowire/versframes into the sink (along with everything else) has earned me ~600 tickets. just start building stuff

[rough crest]

wait its that easy?

[weary gate]

I like how packaging crude turns them into barrels and not plastic containers

[latent prawn]

by the time you start on warp drives, you'll have several golden nuts

[mint cradle]

Yeah at my peak in my last save I was generating 1.4 million points per min

[hard wolf]

iirc I was able to minimize resource needs in Modeler with turbo diamonds, but that was for 2100 uranium ore to ficsonium

[earnest condor]

Running Trucks on Packaged Crude is fun.

[rough crest]

elevator launched

[weary gate]

Guess they didn’t want barrels as a recipe

[latent prawn]

ya, there's a lot of tricks to squeezing everything in, but everything gets very tight

[rough crest]

i mean if i can just afk some plates and sink them and get the statue ill take it

[earnest condor]

Have to remember most of the Packaged models were made before pipes existed.

That's why fuel, oil, and water all look so distinct.
There was no such thing as "making containers to package" because only belts existed.

[rough crest]

whoopsie my server just crashed

[latent prawn]

probably more than that

[rough crest]

i mean my server has been up 517 hours for this very first save of satisfactory

yeah i was thinking of sinking ballistic drives lol

[latent prawn]

slooping protein into dna capsules gives you the most tickets for the effort

[rough crest]

do you know what is the sweep spot to sink? like is the most complex item in the game really the most beneficial?

[latent prawn]

there is none

the tickets just keep getting more expensive

[rough crest]

well there has to be mathematically

[earnest condor]

BWD is the best item purely for points.

Including all the crap it takes to make it. It is still the best thing to sink if points are the goal.

[latent prawn]

the mathematical answer is that eventually ticket cost tends to infinity and all things just become noise

[rough crest]

then its 100% going to be a bwd factory

[rough crest]

thats wrong cause after 3k points printed the cost is the same

i just looked at the wiki

the max is 249,501,250 points per ticket

https://satisfactory.wiki.gg/wiki/AWESOME_Sink

[latent prawn]

anyway, make a lot of stuff and sink it. i'm already averaging about 750k points/min

[rough crest]

so you can assume that after you get to that cost your tickets/min are constant as well

im looking for alt recipes to make one

[quick hound]

Hey… hey dude, guess what..

[latent prawn]

earlier in the game, items like AI limiters give a lot of points for small factory

[earnest condor]

🤔

[quick hound]

I snorted 800 bags of copper powder

[latent prawn]

plut rods are really nice for points

[rough crest]

thats a convenient idea

[earnest condor]

Proud of you.

[rough crest]

making points and power at the same time

[quick hound]

You want some?

[rough crest]

and dealing with waste

[earnest condor]

I'm fine. But thanks.

[quick hound]

The third one

[latent prawn]

copper poisoning

[rough crest]

i layed down all the machines for 600 uranium/min -> 6 uranium rods all with base recipes but its kind of bad honestly i want to make it with alt recipes and maybe use more than 600 uranium/min as well

[quick hound]

You want some nuclear spaghetti I made? Is yum

[earnest condor]

I had dino nuggies.

Because I'm an adult and I can eat what I want.

GOD BLESS AMERICA! WHAT THE F*CK IS A KILOMETER?

[rough crest]

Idk man it doesn’t let me send links

[karmic veldt]

Fun fact in France we produce around 450Twh of power each year. One of the most powerfull nuclear réactor is 900mw.

[rough crest]

But I don’t think so tbf

[karmic veldt]

900mw is the power of my coal central...

[quick hound]

You can’t spell uranium without saying yum!

[plucky bone]

.62 miles

[rough crest]

But that’s TWh and the h is hours

[quick hound]

Can you measure that in bald eagles?

[karmic veldt]

"Can I do the math using hamburger cheese per fifth amendment square inch ?"

[plucky bone]

Nope

Maybe beavers eh.

[rough crest]

So you have to multiply that by 3600 to compare with satisfactory

[karmic veldt]

Yes because it's an amount of energy in tile

[rough crest]

And honestly should be comparing in joules to make it clear

[karmic veldt]

Nah.

[quick hound]

Jewels are expensive. Don’t eat them.

[karmic veldt]

It's not something you have to multiply by 3600, in fact it's an amount of energy.

[quick hound]

shoveling nuclear waste into my mouth by hands huh? Wasn’t listening. This goop taste good!

[karmic veldt]

@rough crest look if you are not convinced, this is my electricity bill for tuesday.
#off-topic-media message

The amount consummed is 13kwh for the whole day

[zinc solar]

why is there a massive stone above an ore spot that disables me from placing a miner there?

and how do I remove it?

[rough crest]

Watts is joules/sec and wattshour if you multiply that by 3600 seconds in 1 hour you get just watts again assuming everything is constant and you don’t have to integrate

[earnest condor]

Did you just drop into the game?

[zinc solar]

well yeah kinda

[rough crest]

Anyways these units are just bullshi use the international metric system

[karmic veldt]

3600 joules = 1 watt.

[earnest condor]

Yeah, you mine the rock by hand. There is a deposit on top of most basic nodes you come across.

[karmic veldt]

That's the corrélation.

[rough crest]

Y ik that’s the idea but like

[zinc solar]

no i mean like a massive unminable stone

[rough crest]

Why can’t you get your bill in joules lol

Why do Americans measure stuff in feet and inches when you have meters lol

[karmic veldt]

But who counts in joules xD

[earnest condor]

Is it grey and cracked?

[karmic veldt]

Joule is for small amount of power dude

[rough crest]

Anyone who knows physics

[zinc solar]

yes

[earnest condor]

Caterium Node?

[zinc solar]

yup

[earnest condor]

[rough crest]

Or math just use the international system always

[zinc solar]

what does this mean?

[quick hound]

OM nom nom nom thanks for the snack

[earnest condor]

There are multiple such nodes that are gated behind you unlocking the Nobelisk.

[rough crest]

It means boom

[karmic veldt]

Yeah but in the entire world anyone who pay for electricity pays for kWh consummed in the month.

Just imagine

[quick hound]

Just eat Taco Bell and it’ll go boom 😂

[karmic veldt]

The number it would be

[rough crest]

I am personally against that if it were for me the bills would be in joules lol

[zinc solar]

is the nobelisk unlocked soon after getting the space elevator?

[karmic veldt]

I wouldnt have enough space on my screen to get my consomption in joule ?

[earnest condor]

MAM -> Sulfur -> Going to need Steel Pipes.

[rough crest]

Cause what does it even mean kWh where h is hour I underline but measured for that month???

[zinc solar]

ah dang

alright thx

[quick hound]

AAAAAAAAH! FRENCH! KILL IT!

[earnest condor]

Can still slap like 15 portable miners on it and just go back every so often.

-# Just make sure it is a multiple of 3.

[rough crest]

It’s better to say you consumed x joules that month and you pay y per joules so it’s just a basic multiplication with no random time units

[karmic veldt]

A watt is a unit of power. Ok ?

[zinc solar]

why?

[dusk pasture]

does anyone know how to fix my rifle? i cant load homing ammo into it only normal ammo

[karmic veldt]

A watt hour is a unit of power relative to the time

[rough crest]

It’s not A unit of power it’s THE unit of power

[earnest condor]

Because Caterium Ore -> Ingot is 3:1 at your stage.

[karmic veldt]

.... A watt is around 730 horse power

[zinc solar]

ahh okay

[rough crest]

Where power is the variation of energy (of any kind electrical, thermal, nuclear whatever) is measured over time ie the derivative

[rough crest]

Ahahahah you’re saying it to troll me

Now using horses to measure power alr

XD

[karmic veldt]

Totaly ^^ Dépend on the système. We have SI

Impérial system.

[rough crest]

What have we got more gallons for liters

[dusk pasture]

does anyone know how to fix my rifle? i cant load homing ammo into it only normal ammo

[karmic veldt]

Impérial system is indeed:

[karmic veldt]

But seriously i would Ask you to look your pc, you have a power unit

It's an antec ? An corsair ?

[rough crest]

That is international and of course imperial has no units for those quantities

They measure distance area and volume at max in that system

[karmic veldt]

International* yeah .

Anyway can you answer m'y question ?

What is the brand of you PSU ?

[rough crest]

Evga

[mint cradle]

what should i produce first the smart plating or the rip

[karmic veldt]

Ok, so what is the power rating ?

I have like 3 from them and they all work well

I think 8 6 and 3 years old or something

[rough crest]

Everything is gold rated

[karmic veldt]

Yeah I know the 80+ norm etc

But I ask you what is the power

[rough crest]

850W my main pc 650W server and the other is like 650W I don’t have it plugged rn

[mint cradle]

at this point should i automate smart plating or wait till phase 2

and just hand feed the assembler

[rough crest]

I wanted to buy a new gpu if prices weren’t insane

[karmic veldt]

Ok, so it means that it consume 850w.

So in 10hr, it will have consummed 8500Wh.

[rough crest]

No shot

AHAHHAHAHAH

That’s literally in the name

Of the unit

And also it’s like half than that cause you don’t use the entire 850W

You use half cause it’s more efficient if you look at the curve of psus

[karmic veldt]

Ur playing on words, I try to explain you the différence between Watts and Watt-hour

[rough crest]

Yeah I know I was adding on that

[karmic veldt]

When we talk about a nuclear reactor

We say that it delivers 900mw.

Not 900mw-h

[rough crest]

I have 2 degrees btw

You can assume I’m not retarded

In engineering

[distant zinc]

@tough rune for your HMF factory id recommend putting a layer of normal grid platforms, so you can actually build properly

unless you’re already gonna do that

[karmic veldt]

I mean I cannot distinct sarcasm, and when you told me you want your bill in joules in tought you were serious.

[tough rune]

yeah i was already going to do something like that, but thank you for the advice

[karmic veldt]

My bill of last mont is 360Kwh, that would be 1 296 000 000 joules lol

[rough crest]

XD

[karmic veldt]

Well congrats u trolled me like a prince

[rough crest]

Could have be TJ

So you just say 1.296TJ

Doesn’t sound that bad come on

Or better

[karmic veldt]

I had this arguments watt/watt hour in three differents school while studying...

I studyed electricity...

[rough crest]

1,296 MJ

Wait that sounds so clean man

[rough crest]

We have always used international system at school

[karmic veldt]

You know what

[rough crest]

The most I’ve seen of the imperial system is ordering pint at the bar

Lol

[karmic veldt]

I will ask électricité de France to have my electrical bill in Calories

[rough crest]

Cause you can’t say give me 0.56 liters of beer or whatever it is

Cause the whole bar will laugh at you

[karmic veldt]

You say a pint.

[rough crest]

And you will end up with no girl

[karmic veldt]

And depending on the country it's 25 or 50cl.

Last time I asked for 0,05 decaliters of beer

[rough crest]

Give 30 ml of whiskey pls

I need it for this conversation

[karmic veldt]

They called Alcoholic Anonymous

[rough crest]

I would have called the police

[karmic veldt]

Imagine if they come

How much megaparsec it is for nothing

You pay for the calories burned in the motor to set up the imperfect Carnot cycle

Dude was so lame he théorized a perfect motor without knowing how to make one

[mint cradle]

ok screws, rods, plates, rips, cable, wire being produced

[karmic veldt]

Rips ?

You're making coffins ?

[wild mural]

is there a way to make sure drones dont fly through walls other than just putting the drone port higher than any walls?

[earnest condor]

Nope.

They sort of have building avoidance but it gets ignored if it craps their pathing too much.

[wild mural]

unfortunate. personally, would you rather have a drone port in a place where there is no drone clipping or a place where it looks awesome

[earnest condor]

Yeah but what do you do when I build a drone port in a cave?

Just say "f you player, drone no work"?

Could make the pathing system 100x more complicated and lag your machine by automatically scanning the cave and splining a way out.

Or could do the happy medium where they ignore everything on the way up, and try to avoid stuff on the way over.

Which is what they tried to do.

Not perfect. But they did try.

[distant zinc]

chat would you rather build a decorated exterior and build a factory inside it, or build a factory then cover it with a decorated exterior

[wild mural]

factory first no exterior

[earnest condor]

Factory first.

[mint cradle]

lowk gonna go back to my old save restarting slow asl

[distant zinc]

see, the exterior hides all the disgusting acts of hell i do when i build a factory

[mint cradle]

im just gonna move to another area or smth

[wild mural]

but just build a nice factory and then no exterior is necessary

[distant zinc]

nice factory? do i look ORGANISED?

i’m an italian

[hard wolf]

build a huge building that's bigger than you need and find creative ways to use all of the space

[distant zinc]

truth nuke

[mint cradle]

ok so im not restarting im just gonna build in another area and when im able to produce everything again ill tear the old thing down

[karmic veldt]

Would you rather have a wall penetrating drone, or random crashes without saves haha

[wild mural]

i cannot argue with that statement

[distant zinc]

my old save was so unbelievably screwed that it was just easier to start from scratch.

[wild mural]

how does being italian constitute for not being able to organize

[distant zinc]

i make spaghetti

[wild mural]

oh yeah

thats on me

[rough crest]

Spaghetti al pomodoro il mio piatto preferito

R u really Italian?

[wild mural]

what kind of conveyor spaghetti do you make

[rough crest]

Cause I am

[distant zinc]

ehh like 50%

[rough crest]

I’m 100%

[wild mural]

italian mogging

[rough crest]

Of course man

[distant zinc]

well my family is mostly from venice actually

[rough crest]

I have mafia pizza pasta and Mario

Ferrari Lamborghini

[rough crest]

Nice I love Venice

I’m from Sicily but live now in the north

[distant zinc]

#screenshots message

[rough crest]

Honestly I just want to move to Switzerland tho much of a nation

Bro that is nothing

[wild mural]

thats actually tragic

[rough crest]

That is so organized my spaghetti are 20x worse

[wild mural]

i will rebuild factories to avoid a single conveyor belt clipping

[distant zinc]

once i automate every crafting item i’ll make a giant storage base with a MASSIVE train station underneath.

that place will be organised

[wild mural]

yo is malenia in the chat

[iron musk]

please do not make it wide as much as you can

[wild mural]

have you never known defeat

[iron musk]

not until today

[wild mural]

who beat you

[iron musk]

spagetti

[distant zinc]

#screenshots message

trains 🤤

[normal trench]

Is it okay to be racist torwards spitters

They uh kinda pmo

[wild mural]

ive never gotten to use trains because i dont like how the power consumption isnt consistent

[distant zinc]

no way is that the real blade of miquella??

[wild mural]

do you just not use them??

[normal trench]

Spitters

[wild mural]

oh

[distant zinc]

gulp

[simple pebble]

Secondary power circuit, my friend

[distant zinc]

yeah i HATE splitters

[wild mural]

i hate the spiders

[iron musk]

we dont like splitters here swallow gang

[wild mural]

like a singular power grid for trains?

[normal trench]

Hey, do batteries work for individual small grids

[simple pebble]

Yeah

[normal trench]

Oh

Fun

[simple pebble]

Possibly expand it for phase 5 buildings too

[distant zinc]

is your power consumption a straight line??

[normal trench]

Like grids separated by power circuit

[wild mural]

thats what i go for yeah

[normal trench]

I mean I try to

[wild mural]

its not perfect yet though so i regularly check for everything

[iron musk]

#screenshots

[normal trench]

Sinks help

[normal trench]

No I do not

[distant zinc]

#screenshots message

[wild mural]

thats not very straight

[simple pebble]

When consumption is straight you can feel pride

[distant zinc]

i already feel pride

pride in the saiyan i am

[iron musk]

@distant zinc should i skip rocket fuel straight to nuclear power

[distant zinc]

rocket fuel is love

it’s so easy to scale

[iron musk]

oh no i dont scale

i wait until im able to use everything at full

[distant zinc]

#screenshots message

this trivialises rocket fuel plants

cuts out nitric acid and turbofuel

[iron musk]

i havent found the alt recipe yet

[distant zinc]

<@&387163995947270144> #screenshots

[iron musk]

also do you get the alt recipes from the rescanned hard drives

[distant zinc]

kick this inefficient ghoul out of here

[distant zinc]

yeah

if you have rocket fuel unlocked in the MAM

[iron musk]

nope

[distant zinc]

it’s a great investment

[iron musk]

my fuel plant i built in stage 3 still going strong

[distant zinc]

especially for jetpacks too

[iron musk]

yeah i think i will make some for drones and jetpack

[distant zinc]

i usually skim past coal best i can
i hate coal

[iron musk]

im on my first playthrough in will definiletly do in my 2nd

[distant zinc]

if you want the best value out of an oil deposit, go for nitro rocket fuel

[dense violet]

best value from an oil deposit is nuclear power.
takes almost no oil

[distant zinc]

SCREW NUCLEAR
I WANT POLLUTION

MAY CHAOS TAKE THE WORLD!

[earnest condor]

Ionized Fuel my beloved.

[distant zinc]

i’m terrified to reach tier 9

[earnest condor]

It's honeslty... meh.

Unless you're someone who automates Project Parts the only thing you really "get" out of Phase 5 is the mk6 belt.

[distant zinc]

i’ve never automated project parts

i just build a temporary factory, throw in the stuff needed

[earnest condor]

I am in 1.2 for the first time ever in 8 years because I put the Elevator on 100x cost 😁

[distant zinc]

and funnel it into the space elevator

[distant zinc]

do you also sleep on a bed of nails?

[iron musk]

sounds familiar

[dense violet]

beds of nails spreads your weight out over all the points so it's not actually doing much to you. The more nails the comfier it is

[mint cradle]

now back in my og save and in dune desert after moving now wondering how im gonna layout this factory

[distant zinc]

i’ve killed you more times than i can count

and i can’t count past 10

[earnest condor]

No. It just changes the approach to the game because you cannot speedrun it.
Racing to Phase 5 isn't an option, so I am enjoying it because I'm building things and at a scale in Phase 2 that I have never done before.

[iron musk]

i still remember my first time defeating her

i held my breath in the entire 2nd phase almost choked myself lol

made me even fall harder for the game and her never felt like that before

[distant zinc]

compared to other bosses, malenia isn’t that aggressive

she just farms aura and walks at you a lot

[iron musk]

i fully agree

[distant zinc]

but she hits HARD

[mint cradle]

literally only difficult cause of waterfowl learn how to dodge that and its easy

[distant zinc]

i had more trouble with messmer

messmer took me 143 attempts

[mint cradle]

consort rahdan killed me inside

[distant zinc]

i’m yet to fight him out of fear

[iron musk]

i died to rellana like 200 times and couldnt beat her

[distant zinc]

i probably got lucky on my 40th try

[iron musk]

fuck it we downloading elden ring for a second playthrough

[mint cradle]

how would yall go about building a base in dune desert

im tired of my old builds near the end of phase 3 and im moving

[iron musk]

i was so scared of him i just ignored

[distant zinc]

i have 453 hours in elden ring and i’ve played through it 3 times now

[dense violet]

decide on your end product
plan exact location and recipes with https://www.satisfactorytools.com/1.0/production
do basic layout how the sections interact and play with foundations

[iron musk]

or even better use satisfactory modeler on steam

[mint cradle]

tools is lowk goated

[twin parcel]

Yea phase 5 sucks , I don't even know if 10 uranium rod /min is enough.

[mint cradle]

i want to make all the basics here then ship them out to other areas, iron plates, reinforced plates, rods, screws, copper sheets, basically all the basic items and some space elevator parts

but thing is idk how much i should be producing

also wanna make some mid tier parts like rotors, motors, hmf

[twin parcel]

Use phase 5 elevator parts as reference .

[mint cradle]

might do a floor per part but idk yet

[mint cradle]

even while at phase 3

[twin parcel]

Yes cuz u use phase 3 space parts to make phase 4 parts , and use phase 4 parts for phase 5 parts .

[mint cradle]

what are the phase 4 parts

[twin parcel]

Nuclear pasta , thermal propulsion rocket

[mint cradle]

gulp

[distant zinc]

i’m lowkey a sissy, i set my space elevator parts to .25

[twin parcel]

And also magnetic field generator and assembly director system .

[mint cradle]

wow uhm

[twin parcel]

Well I use cubes as example,

1 nuclear pasta > 1 pressure cube > 1 fused modular frame > 1 hmf

[mint cradle]

its gonna take a while before i fully finish phase 3 since im rebuilding almost all my infastructure

still need the 500 modular engines

[dense violet]

and have to remake the whole plan every time you want to see how a different recipe changes the chain? great idea

[distant zinc]

i produce as much as i can squeeze out of my extractors in a given area

[dense violet]

make hte plan's end point be space parts then and decide on how much pm you want

[distant zinc]

like my HMF factory produces 20/min cause the iron extraction around it gets 3000 iron/min

[iron musk]

can we stop larping already

[dense violet]

3000? that's way too much iron

[distant zinc]

THATS HOW MUCH IT USES

[dense violet]

https://www.satisfactorytools.com/1.0/production?share=QttEmnzBef03V2YLwYdH
Less than half

[distant zinc]

i used mostly iron to substitute other materials i didn’t wanna travel for

like iron pipe alt recipe and iron wire

aswell as not using screws

[dense violet]

shrug
iron and coal are the 2 most common combos you have on the map. You have to actively avoid them

[twin parcel]

Just have personal preference, more different nodes to be involved or less ? Do u hate this one node/item and u wanna avoid all cost?

[distant zinc]

i HATE coal!!!!

[twin parcel]

I love using iron pipes on dune dessert.

[distant zinc]

coal is my number one opp

[mint cradle]

but i dont want it to end at space elevator parts

i just want them to be there as well

[twin parcel]

Diamonds laughing in a corner (phase 5)

[dense violet]

Sure, but once your storage of space parts fill, the 'end poin'ts become the basic parts overflowing

[mint cradle]

oh i see what you mean

since all the space parts are gonna overflow eventually i can just split off the basic parts into trains

[dense violet]

since you have a hard time deciding on final numbers, this might help avoid that barrier

[twin parcel]

Use satisfactory modeler and choose 1 item / min for phase 5 space parts, from there u know how much stuff u need for phase 3 space parts and create a factory to automate them .

[dense violet]

you can do that on probably every planner. That's not a mystical benifit of modeler

plus yo uget the added benifit, again, of being able to modify the entire chain with 2 clicks if you swap out recipes using tools

what youre describing is just the most basic function of a planning tool to make it a planning tool

[limpid grotto]

<@&387163995947270144> some1 posted hentai in screenshots get that mf out

anyone use the interactive map?

[iron musk]

who doesnt

[sacred wraith]

i might be lowk stupid but the cordinates dont add up

wait no i am

[dense violet]

what do you need exactly?

[dense violet]

this is just an example for smart plates and versatile framework I just made https://www.satisfactorytools.com/1.0/production?share=lp40gYF3o16S72s3vqpb

do the parts per min of hte basic items seem reasonable to you?

[unique folio]

Is there any hope for satisfactory native on arm? I know this is a non thing rn I'm just wondering

[wild mural]

arm chair

[ornate saffron]

Well.... there is windows versions that run on arm based tablets. So in theory...

[unique folio]

Is that on the website?

[ornate saffron]

No, I have owned a tablet that runs windows 11 that is arm based thats all

[unique folio]

Oh windows versions I see I thought you meant a game version that worked for it

[normal trench]

What is arm again? I’ve heard that related to computers, is it bios related?

[worn oar]

It's a CPU architecture

[normal trench]

Ahh ok

[worn oar]

ARM typically powers specialized devices such as raspberry pi, some phones, and also Apple computers

[normal trench]

Mm, thanks!

Yeah, Ive legit only taken one high school class going over computer stuff, not even done with it lol
