satisfactory

[dense violet]

yup! basically no steps to it.
Each fuel gen makes more but has a number of steps

so really up to you.

Typically I'll make a diluted fuel system that makes about 30gw at tier 7 then push to nuclear. It's easier
but it's totally doable to build a bit more coal and do it

[mystic sonnet]

Yeah I am trying to open rocket fuel rn very excited

[dense violet]

ehhh... rf is boring and ... repetitive

you need 1000 generators for decent power

[fluid sapphire]

which you can build in a couple of hours with good prep

[mystic sonnet]

1000 generators wdym

[dense violet]

you can get teh same power with 100 nuclear gens. MUCH less piping and ... the recipes are pretty simple. It's more steps but they are smaller

[mystic sonnet]

I am generating 7.6GW rn

[dense violet]

fuel generators put out far less than nuclear.
so if you want lots of power you need A LOT of fuel generators

[mystic sonnet]

You are talking about 100 times my current power gen 😄

[dense violet]

you said coal gens were 'small' before , with fuel generators doing like 3x the power?
fuel gens are 'small', nuclear does 10x the power

[dense violet]

some machines later can be set to use 15,000mw

[fluid sapphire]

the red buildings here are all generators, about 1200 of them, generating 270GW

#screenshots message

[dense violet]

1 machine.

[mystic sonnet]

Is it hard to do nuclear? I am currently trying to complete phase 3

[quick hound]

And nuclear waste tastes like a green apple slushie.. mmmm…

[dense violet]

nope. and if you use the BASE recipes is very easy

[dense violet]

side benefit to nuclear is that uranium has basically no uses other than power so it's basically just garbage if you don't use it for that

while oil can be used everywhere

[mystic sonnet]

A DLC would be nice where you work for America instead of FICSIT and you try to make bombs and a lot of gunpowder and new recipies

[dense violet]

in any case! imo treat the milestones and tiers as a long tutorial. When you unlock everything it's more of a sandbox. More like minecraft than other automation games.
Just learn and have fun.

[runic musk]

How do i swtich the language in my game, it is in swedish my mother lanauage but i pref it in english

cant seem to switch, it seems

[teal juniper]

what are the chances someone would gift me the game if i begged for it ?

[leaden turret]

absolutely zero, because it's against the #rules

[teal juniper]

bet

dw it was a rethorical question

[leaden turret]

suuuuuuuuure

[teal juniper]

im planning on buying the game but i keep getting stuck

epic games keep saying they dont accept the payment mehod

[leaden turret]

buy it from steam or humble bundle then, problem solved

[abstract heron]

oh its marv howdy marv

[mystic sonnet]

My friend bought this game when it first came out, and in regional pricing.

He keeps telling me that he feels like he did something wrong because he took x10 the fun of the payment he did

[fluid sapphire]

try humble store, its 30% off right now

[teal juniper]

do they adjust the price according to region ?

[fluid sapphire]

humble? doubt it

[teal juniper]

uuuuhm no thx

[abstract heron]

i bought the game on Steam release day best purchase of my life cause i have 19,742 hrs on record on it

[teal juniper]

id rather get it for 7 dollars

from epic store

[abstract heron]

and steam will have it on sale but no sale atm i don't think

Early june or late june ik there is always summer sale

[fluid sapphire]

well, you can go check anyway, i dont know 100%

[abstract heron]

the game will be on sale when they do summer game i hope

[fluid sapphire]

its on sale right now

[worn oar]

It's on sale right now

[abstract heron]

where?

[worn oar]

Humble Bundle, 30%

[abstract heron]

oh

[whole mason]

screenshot of the 19k hours maybe? kinda crazy to believe ^^

[abstract heron]

still working on that 20k hrs atm at 19,742 hrs on record

[whole mason]

photo maybe?

[fluid sapphire]

its real

[worn oar]

Oh well obviously if some guy says it's real that's all the proof I need. Problem solved.

[fluid sapphire]

you're welcome

[fluid sapphire]

well, from 4 years ago, doesnt look like they have posted an updated one

Ill do a ping to mikael jason and nether and do proof SS when i reach 20k hrs

and i might have to stop today ish due to irl heat

thats actually crazy..

[whole mason]

i mean that screenshot

[abstract heron]

its summer time for me and high of 29C today so ya and i only do summer of quiet due to the heat and break

Fused modular frames are hella annoying

Genuinely scraping every bit of iron together to get it going

Currently running 1080 iron ore in per min through a variety of conveyors and trains

Thats getting me 30 modular frames, 6 reinforced, and soon to be 6 fused frames per min

I love doctor who

People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint - it's more like a big ball of wibbly wobbly... time-y wimey... stuff.

[zenith quartz]

Chain reaction

[leaden turret]

given people vs. puppies & kittens, if you were and you had to chooes which to hang out with, which would you prefer

[zenith quartz]

Kittens and girls

[earnest condor]

All of the "save the planet" and "puppy kitten" stuff was added in 1.0.
Prior to that it was "drop down, fuck this planet UP, and just exploit it for everything purely for profit and gain."

[zenith quartz]

Oh lol

[white dawn]

I mean, prior to 1.0 there wasn't any story. They didn't randomly change the tone of ADA, they just finally took the time to put that stuff in

(and IMO it feels pretty obvious that the "save the planet, puppies and kittens" stuff is just ADA trying to psychologically manipulate you to do that fucking-up-the-planet stuff. :)

We're not exploiting the planet any less than we were prior to 1.0. :)

[sterile blade]

Global Illumination (alone) was more of a game-changer for me than the upcoming Update, so U8 is, uh... "peak" to me

[leaden turret]

one could argue that with the alien power augmenter & dimensional depot we're poluting less

[white dawn]

Hm, true, should set up a new coalgen for every few Depots! :D

[sterile blade]

Who's to say that a giant machine bending the rules of phisics to make "free" power wouldn't have a significant impact on the enviroment?
It could be giving off bad vibes to the whole planet for all we know...

||Proposal to have the Beans behave increasingly nervous/agitated the more Augmenter are present and/or powered at the same time ✋||

[frozen ingot]

the more i use the new vehicle paths the more i dislike the system

got a path going through a narrow bit of terrain that i can't double back on itself (for the return route)

doesn't like the terrain... but I know the path can go through there

[leaden turret]

build a ramp

[frozen ingot]

good idea

def don't like it though

i love using the existing terrain and roads for vehicle paths

truly wish i'd just done a beltway now

nah ramp doesn't work

so basically this bit of terrain is for no good reason one way only 😆

guess we're gonna have to reroute

[woven zodiac]

Offload it on one Side, build a belt to the other side, load it to another truck

[frozen ingot]

fuck no 🤣

[abstract heron]

huh 😛

[raven grotto]

do i actually finish phase 2 today? prolly not

actually maybe

all im doing is hard drives n i got 8 riht now

[young sentinel]

is the total wattage available from oil not exceeding that of uranium?

[woven zodiac]

no need to hurry.

[raven grotto]

im done with milestones, finished smart plating and want to get milestones back again to give me a reason to make my new factory look good

[woven zodiac]

i did something similar and everytime I see it, i smile.

[frozen ingot]

i don't think i would be smiling!

[young sentinel]

maybe the issue is all the resources and space you need to take up for all those fuel plants.

[raven grotto]

forgot i unlocked daisy chaining so peak

[abstract heron]

i am going to bet that 1.2 stream next week will start early am i true on that <@&370483737957236737> and also 19,744 hrs on record 🙂

[young sentinel]

i ran the numbers and it would require 16,800 fuel plants to burn all available oil if converted to ion fuel.

that doesn’t sound like fun

[mystic sonnet]

hey guys it seems like when it comes to turning left and right, I can't build train tracks. I can only make junctions and straight paths. I can connect turn left and right blueprints I have so my tracks becomes flying tracks with no foundations, how can I fix it

[primal obsidian]

pollution update when

[abstract heron]

i want Memory update when? or something to help large players like myself FPS update when?

[raven grotto]

i wish we had a tool to copy n paste settings instead of going into every one and then pasting

[true mulch]

you don't have to open the UI, and there is a setting to copy the configuration when you sample a building

[abstract heron]

oh hello ondar

[raven grotto]

how do you not have to open the ui

[true mulch]

just look at it and ctrl+V

[raven grotto]

bruh

why didnt i know this before

[true mulch]

you can also rebind it from ctrl+C/V to any other key, such as F5/F6

much faster to press

[raven grotto]

would num pad work

i love my num pad

it does

omg we so winning rn

[flint valve]

Ngl I played for a while and got burnt out on late game, thinking about coming back and starting again

[raven grotto]

so i dont get burnt out from building i go out and make expeditions every so often for like harddrives, somersloops, or mercer spheres

and slugs if i happen to stumble upon them

[flint valve]

Mine wasn't necessarily from building as such

[raven grotto]

hey thats my cats name

[flint valve]

Huh

[raven grotto]

#off-topic-media message Apollo is my cats name

[flint valve]

Oh, cool

But anyway yeah I got burnt out just because I'm technically a new player and I'm surprised I made it as far as I did, just got overwhelmed with the amount of stuff I had to make late game

[young sentinel]

are other players getting these 2TW+ megapower plants that they show off on reddit only possible via mods?

[raven grotto]

im finishing phse 2 rn and ive been taking it slow so i dont really feel burnt out yet

there are some games ive done that to though

[flint valve]

The later phases get a bit hectic ngl, it was kinda intimidating for me lol. But I've made some plans and such and I'm ready to try again!

[raven grotto]

fire, hope you have fun!

[flint valve]

Ty, and best of luck to you with your phases!

[raven grotto]

ty!

[jagged nymph]

o

[raven grotto]

hmm do i set it so it rains more in my worlsd

i might

[unkempt blade]

yeah rain is better than no rain

[raven grotto]

and isnt lightning storms disabled by default? it seems like it

[unkempt blade]

not sure, but lightning is awesome too

I've been bashering my friends when they log off and I need lightning to frankenstein them back to "life"

[raven grotto]

lol

does lightning strike factory carts?

[frozen ingot]

doubt it but that would be pretty cool 😄

[worn oar]

There's lightning?

[raven grotto]

do i have to wait for a sushi belt to prefill?

[worn oar]

Depends on your setup

The question is much more complicated than it sounds, which is why I try not to sushi anything

[raven grotto]

1.2 if you go to world options you can set it to be more frequent too

[frozen ingot]

in 1.2 yeah

currently on experimental branch

[raven grotto]

same i changed because the weather sounded awesome and i REALLY wanted daisy chaining and oh boy was it worth it

[young sentinel]

maybe they're using somersloops, which, i have not personally used yet at all.

[raven grotto]

id use it at the end of a production line

like rn im making a 10/s versatile framework line and with somersloops at the end means i make 20 for the price of 10

[fathom zinc]

In which version was Lore added into the game?

[true mulch]

the game had some lore even back in the closed alpha, but the current story was added in 1.0

[fathom zinc]

I see

[fickle locust]

When you're maxing that much you need Somersloops and SAM processes

But with the right alternate recipes it's not that hard to get up to pretty significant numbers

[young sentinel]

yea i'm seeing now the wiki says you get more uranium from bauxite.

[raven grotto]

underclocking is actually so nice

yippe 3 hours until my haircut i cant wait

[silk rose]

undervolting

[raven grotto]

same thing if im not wrong same with pc's

[silk rose]

yes

[raven grotto]

to underclock you undervolt

bang spot on i knew it

[silk rose]

efficiency first

[raven grotto]

potato potato in a sense

to be efficent you dont waste resources!

[fathom zinc]

The moment I discovered the game had Lore was the moment the intro played

[raven grotto]

and in order to do that sometimes you have to underclock

or the ADA will get maad

[silk rose]

215W -> 140W power
80C -> 60C temperature
100% -> 99% performance

[quiet mortar]

METALLICA YEAH YEAHHHHHH

[unkempt blade]

It's basically the same plot as the History Channel. Lots of ancient aliens and a little bit roman empire

[raven grotto]

theres always a little bit of the roman empire in everyones daily life

[silk rose]

excpet ada wants you to actually build one in a single day

[raven grotto]

I perfer korn and their subgenre

[fathom zinc]

Does that sticker get added everytime ada getts mentioned?

[quiet mortar]

I cant get behind korn at all

[unkempt blade]

well she has to wait 1500 years like a normal save would take right @abstract heron ?

[quiet mortar]

Like blind is really good

until that part where the singer starts doing that thing yk

[raven grotto]

follow the leader, self titled, even the newest album

scatting?

[quiet mortar]

yeah

I really dont like that

[raven grotto]

thats kind of jons whole thing i mean look at twist from the life is peachy album

[abstract heron]

huh 😛

[silk rose]

only matter of pioneer count. ignoring Ringelman effect

[quiet mortar]

I know its his thing i just hate it

[raven grotto]

now realistically one album i dont think he scats a lot is see you on the other side

[fickle locust]

Only using alt recipes, 600 oil turns into 144,000 power
And there's (calculating)
1,500+3,600+4,800+600+900+1200 = 12,600 oil on the map
So if you can maintain that oil-to-power ratio by getting all the materials needed for the alts, gives you 3,000,000 power

[rich parrot]

Underclocking multiplies the amount of machines and logistics though. That tends to add lag in big builds.

[unkempt blade]

ADA needs to wait for 1500 years of playtime like the romans did

[silk rose]

i dont think theres enough sulfur

[silk rose]

not with PCs

[fickle locust]

Right you'd have to do conversion stuff
And this is silly anyway because you need that oil for other things

[silk rose]

and amount of fuel-gens is terrifying

[raven grotto]

stg the lighting was changed in 1.2

how many fuel gens make 2.4 gw?

[fickle locust]

The point being that very high amounts of power are achievable even without somersloops, and adding the sloops lets you use less base resource for the same result

[unkempt blade]

less than one week until "1.2 releases tomorrow" is objectively true and not just wishful thinking

[fickle locust]

Each generator is 250 MW
So 9 and a fraction (9.6)

[unkempt blade]

but if we wish really hard for it maybe they'll release it tomorrow

[raven grotto]

damn my 32 coal plants make that, would be nice

but space is practically infinite

except the coal is not

[silk rose]

ye, CS, when can lightning energy be obtained?? its just being wasted yet!
Gigawatt of electricity can be captured with The Flux Capacitor!

[rich parrot]

Well, on the machines of us mere mortals the increased amount of machines is noticeable. Perhaps your hardware is more top of the line.

[abstract heron]

i need to ask jason or mikael what they want meto do for 20k hrs

[fickle locust]

Coal is a huge step up from the power you have beforehand
And oil is a huge step up from coal

[unkempt blade]

maybe a factory in the shape of "20k hrs" imo

[abstract heron]

19,745 hrs on record

[abstract heron]

god the AC in europe SUCKED when i was there

couldnt get the room even cool

Ah yes, the room where all of Europe lives. That does suck, indeed.

[raven grotto]

three seperate countries and only one hotel had good AC that went to i think 60 which was actually really nice

[silk rose]

60F ?

[fickle locust]

60 f? You're putting the AC at like 15 C?

[raven grotto]

romania bulgaria and turkey btw, the hotel was in like istanbul if i remember correctly

[raven grotto]

yes

[abstract heron]

I remember when 1.0 said by snutt i stopped playing Satisfactory

[raven grotto]

when i dont pay for it I DONT CARE :D

[abstract heron]

Does anyone want 27C atm high of 28C

[raven grotto]

at home tho we usually keep like 68 in summer maybe 72 in winter smth like that

[raven grotto]

how bout 31? yesterday it was like 32 idk i googled the transfermation for 31 and guessed for yesterdays

36% humidity too not bad

next weeks gonna SUCK rain all weekend then spikes to like 90

is rigor motor good

[rich parrot]

All alts and base recipes have a use case.

[raven grotto]

i dont need bolted fram so might get it

[raven grotto]

at some point some of them dont ebcause of other alt recipes

[quiet mortar]

Automated miner

[abstract heron]

i use a mod where i don't need automated miners at all

[raven grotto]

removes the need of portable miners for buling them im guessing

[rich parrot]

No, all recipes will stay valid the entire game. Their usage depends on your available resources and your overall plan. Some alts are great in some situations but terrible in others.

[abstract heron]

yup

[raven grotto]

wouldnt mind getting it if some of these mods get updated

cause im not going back to 1.1 now

[abstract heron]

They will but SML is not ready for 1.2

they are working on it reason why i have not updated yet

Currently i am power sharding everything in my world due to lag among other reasons

[raven grotto]

i did because of daisy chaining and weather and i noticed that the lighting and performance was better so now i def dont wanna go back

[unkempt blade]

you do if you're screwmaxxing and not just playing the game on easy mode

[silk rose]

except coal alts

[unkempt blade]

biocoal is a top 5 recipe

[silk rose]

whats top 1

[unkempt blade]

cast screws obviously

[silk rose]

we need tierlist

maybe there is

but tierlist format is so boring

[unkempt blade]

#satisfactory message here's one from when I was young and naive and didn't understand that biocoal is better than charcoal

[silk rose]

such a miss

that would make a difference to huge

[abstract heron]

i am hoping after 1.2 stable and big bug fixes there is a memory update something

[rich parrot]

A tier list makes sense, when there is some kind of objective measure (like damage in some other games). Here alts depend on what is needed at a build site. Sure, some combinations are "generally good", but even what people would consider "second rate" alts do have their place in builds. So a tier list is pretty meaningless.

[unkempt blade]

also there have been a number of tier lists on reddit I just won't support them by finding a link for you

[silk rose]

objective is straight boring everybody would have the same list. the point is in discussion on subjective stuff

[raven grotto]

memory update?

like optimization?

[silk rose]

memory reboot

[unkempt blade]

this is subjectively the only correct take

[abstract heron]

my woirld takes 22kgb or mb to load in and then atm i am at 16kmb or just playing and where i am at

no idea what ur trying to say if im being fr, if your talking about RAM its using bout half of my single stick of ddr4 16gb 2666 (i know im rich)

[abstract heron]

thats why i added my save in here to see guru and the devs can fix my save or patch it with other stuff into the game

[raven grotto]

[silk rose]

what do you mean 22kgb

hah i have 50...

[violet glen]

That still won't be 22TB of RAM need

[silk rose]

errmm actually 22_000/1024=21.5 TB

[rich parrot]

Maybe leo is the reason why RAM is so expensive now.

[abstract heron]

uh no

isnt that like any imperfect overflow factory

[raven grotto]

did you buy the ||cyber truck||?

[raven grotto]

theoretically yes i guess

[abstract heron]

fresh world fresh fresh i can get about 200fps in game but now i only get 26 to 28fps and maybe 40fps in certain spots

[warped crane]

ok I figured it out. Satisfactory just needs a NG+ option

[earnest condor]

?

[warped crane]

when you save the day you get the ability to build another space elevator and do it again, but this time the part requirements are doubled

repeat as desired

[earnest condor]

Meh.

[sour cargo]

That's just ...1.2 lol

[raven grotto]

sushi belts are lowkey fun to make

[warped crane]

I want to build multiple elevators on the same save!

see how many I can get!

2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x are "easy", 64x, 128x, 256x, 512x start getting more difficult 😄

and each time you complete an elevator you get a new mug with your elevator count on it

also you can't just repeat the game with the same factory without outside save editors

[young sentinel]

yea like the end of Universal Paperclip you get a slight bonus when you do it over again

[raven grotto]

is there a switch like the power switch for conveyors? there should be

[silk rose]

conveyors need to consume power
P = l²/t
p - total power of one belt, l - length, t - time

[raven grotto]

i mean to stop the flow

[silk rose]

break it

[rich parrot]

Once you have automated all parts to a reasonable degree, new elevators would just be a question of for how long you want to game to just run. Elevator number 32 would not be easier or harder than number 256.

[warped crane]

no ofc not you could just run stuff longer, but you could also build bigger factories to do it quicker

[rich parrot]

There are mods that allow you to use the elevator as a sink, if you don't want to use a regular sink. It would be basically the same and the counter is just the amount of golden nuts you gather.

[copper laurel]

Okay one of those god damn cats keeps spawning beneath my blueprint designer inside the foundations, glitches through them and bites me, how do I properly exorcise this demonic creature?

[warped crane]

no bc thats only 1 elevator. I want multiple elevators

[rich parrot]

Foundations prevent creatures from spawning. Just make a big 'ol slab on top of his home.

[rich parrot]

But how is that different from sinks? Except for size.

[copper laurel]

That is already the case it spawns within the solid foundation

[raven grotto]

so say im feeding my assemblers with a sushi belt and its versatile framework, how does the second one get the modular frames when the first one is still filling up

[warped crane]

bc its cool looking obv

[raven grotto]

lol

[rich parrot]

Well, there are mods for pretty much every need. I am sure one of them allows multiple elevators.

[warped crane]

boo mods, yay real dlc

[rich parrot]

If a mod fulfills your specific need, why would you boo it?

[raven grotto]

cant buy dlc if there are any because im piggybacking off of my steam family

[warped crane]

boo mods!

[raven grotto]

probably will buy it for myself tho on the summer sale

[rich parrot]

Right...

[abstract heron]

What DLC already for the game

[warped crane]

no but I want it

[silk rose]

soundtrack

[unkempt blade]

buy it twice!

[worn oar]

Why would you ever boo mods

[silk rose]

chat stop scaring me

[rich parrot]

Some people are not looking for a solution. They mostly just want attention. That is why they boo a solution.

[worn oar]

chat are we cooked chat chat

[raven grotto]

waiting for vers framework and phse 2 is DONE

cant wait to not touch milestones for like 2 days lol

[copper laurel]

The spider still spawns inside foundations that's why I actually asked how to get rid of it

[warped crane]

just not for me

[warped crane]

🙄

[worn oar]

That's fine, you're not required to use them. But booing them is ridiculous

There are so many good mods and mod makers for just about anything

[warped crane]

It's not ridiculous to express an opinion! Don't silence people!

[worn oar]

You're the type of guy to use slurs in a voice chat then complain about free speech aren't you

[warped crane]

<@&387163995947270144> I'm not comfortable with this

[rich parrot]

Hmm, I have never had creatures spawn through foundations. At least I have never noticed if they did.

[worn oar]

Yeah and I'm not comfortable with you pretending I'm silencing you for opposing your opinion

[warped crane]

Accusing someone of using slurs is unreasonable. I'ma just block ya

[abstract heron]

🤔

[worn oar]

That's probably the best option for someone who can't stand mild criticism, yes.

[silk rose]

bro has like 0h on internet

[copper laurel]

I guess I'll just keep doing what I've done since noticing it, chucking an entire stack of nobelisks on the Designer from a watchtower and detonating it until I get cluster nobelisks

[worn oar]

Based

[rich parrot]

It might be simpler to relocate the designer, so you are no longer interrupted.

[silk rose]

foundated then elevated

[copper laurel]

Already set a second one up on another location but sometimes I use the first on cause it's closer and it's three DNA samples so there is one upside to it

[silk rose]

can i make a mob grinder in satisfactory

[worn oar]

No, they won't spawn again when their spawn point is near a building

[silk rose]

some buildings let them spawn like poles

[worn oar]

Yes

[silk rose]

conditions are more complex

[worn oar]

Also don't think there is an automated way to attack enemies

[rich parrot]

I usually treat designers like disposable goods. I just spawn one when I happen to need to make a new BP or a adjust an old one and then I immediately remove it when done.

[silk rose]

they kill each other

we just need different species in one pit

im not sure about killing part, maybe they are initially neutral but ive seen them fight

additional research is required for spawn mechanics

[warped crane]

yeah this is the best way tbh. I usually need them when I'm away from the hub anyway

I have thought about making some modular catwalk blueprints I can stick up around 'em when I spawn one in, though

[silk rose]

arent catwalks already modular the best way? or you do custom railings or smth

[warped crane]

I mean like 1-2 blueprints I could quickly throw down to put a catwalk all the way around the designer, to save time on setup/removal

[noble ice]

Do you all prefer to have your rail networks be bi-directional? or just one rail with the train going backwards and forwards?

[warped crane]

last time I asked this folks got upset that I even suggested using two-headed trains, so I think most folks do bi-directional networks

personally I will do two-headed trains for smaller outpost kind of networks, but if you're doing any kind of large world-spanning network you really need bi-directional to get the benefits of using rail networks

[noble ice]

I'm a little tight on space since its going into some mountenous areas. I was gonna just do one line, having two lines next to each other might not work for me.

[warped crane]

Have you thought about stacking your lanes? 👀

[rich parrot]

If I need a small number of trains (like 5-7) for in-biome transportation, I usually just connect all stations to a single rail, have signals only on stations and use two-headed trains. For map-wide main rail I always use dual rails.

A single rail is perfectly fine to accommodate a small number of trains.

[noble ice]

Yeah I just need to move sulfer, coal, and nitrogen in bulk over a relatively short distance (2km)

[rich parrot]

Unless, of course, you want to minimize train length and your trains are travelling non-stop. Then you might need dual rails even for shorter distances. But I like to have a few cars, so the train can spend some time on stations and only move with full load/unload orders.

[rich parrot]

That sounds like power production. I would prioritize reliability over all else 🙂

[old rapids]

i winged it to phase 3 of space elevator, time to rebuild everything 500 times

[abstract heron]

we need 1000 times in 1.2

[compact swift]

The scale of the machines is so large you need a mega-factory of them to make everything.

[reef basin]

why would you need megafactory?

[unborn canyon]

I’ve never liked messing with trains to get reliable throughout I just made a 12 lane stackable belt highway print with t6 belts to gather mats from around the map worked much better for me

[gloomy tusk]

with all the new updates have they actually added any new ores or new phases

i havent played since like jan

whats new?

[reef basin]

#patch-notes

[violet glen]

I doubt there will be any major changes like that

[warped crane]

not until some DLC or something at least

[robust wigeon]

The humble autoclicker:

You could probably do it with an autoclicker and smart rounds I guess maybe but not full auto without a macro to… wait… hold E to pick up ammo off a conveyor belt

Yeah you could do it

But you have to be afk

[violet glen]

you need to trap a spider in such a way that it can kill the enemies as they spawn, but it itself can't get hurt by them

then you can occasionally go harvest meat

[fathom zinc]

is there any way of silencing the generators?

[warped crane]

Check the sound settings! There are very granular volume controls. Not sure if generators are in there but something in there should lower their volume

[lofty galleon]

1.2 when?

[leaden turret]

#satisfactory-memes message

[sharp compass]

Do y'all think they'll ever have a tier 10?

[ornate saffron]

I expect maintence and Quality of life until a major paid update

[unkempt blade]

I heard they're going to skip 10 and the next tier would start at 13

[spiral summit]

did they ever say anything about a dlc?

[spiral summit]

i try to distribute my machines as much as possible so i dont have to make one big ugly mega skyscraper on top of the most uneven terrain known to man

thats how you usually stop worrying abt that

istg why did they never bother to put 1st person in the vehicles

[fathom zinc]

any good location for a steel factory?

[spiral summit]

im making a road tunnel and driving the truck with 3rd person feels like walking as a blind man with no walking stick

[unkempt blade]

lots of them, just find the coal near iron 😄

[fathom zinc]

understadable

[ornate saffron]

SW side of grasslands is nice

[spiral summit]

river between rocky desert and northern forest

has pure iron right next to sum coal

[unkempt blade]

Yeah I mean the majority of coal has iron near it. I wasn't just answering like a jerk

[latent prawn]

there's also a couple of normal or impure nodes nearyby in the spire coast cliffs & then the 4 pure on the NF Bluff

[abstract heron]

19,755hrs i am thinking total on steam i need 245hrs more

[raven grotto]

theres always a node if you have enough resources for a conveyor :D

[latent prawn]

or fuel for a truck

[raven grotto]

time to finish phase 2 after 56 hours

jetpack you say

oh ada i love your delusional convos with the entity

[neat marlin]

anyone know of a quick way to get rid of a giant boulder on a coal node while in phase 2?

I need this damn coal

[raven grotto]

nobelisk

[earnest condor]

[raven grotto]

sulfer in the MAM

[neat marlin]

how do I get it

oh, thank you

[raven grotto]

👍

[earnest condor]

MAM is the most important building you have. Do not ignore it. Make it a priority.

[raven grotto]

also kinda fun to play with

i suggest trying to get hard drives sooner than later though

[neat marlin]

Well I've definetely ignored it in the 25 hours of playing I have on this save lmao

[raven grotto]

they make some factories way easier sometimes

[neat marlin]

I found one hard drive so far

[neat marlin]

in what way?

[raven grotto]

alternative recipies

[neat marlin]

oh ok

[raven grotto]

i realistically never need to touch copper again

[neat marlin]

must be nice

[raven grotto]

for 90% of things ig because theres still copper sheets for now

[neat marlin]

Im SO close to finishing what I can with this coal power plant

I just need one more coal node

and its very frustrating that there is a big boulder on it lmfao

[raven grotto]

i have 32 plants :D

2.4 GW

[neat marlin]

dang, I only have one

2.4GW each?

[earnest condor]

He means he has 32 Generators.

[neat marlin]

ohhhhhh

ok that makes sense, in that case I have 12

[raven grotto]

#screenshots message

[earnest condor]

They are best done in multiples of 8.

[raven grotto]

I will probably change to oil soon

[raven grotto]

3:8 ratio is why iirc

[earnest condor]

You mean "add oil and leave my coal gens running because there is no reason to delete them at all" right? ... Right?

[raven grotto]

yes

thats the plan

free 2.4gw that will never get touched or looked at

maybe one day i add another 32 idk

[neat marlin]

3 what :8 what?

[raven grotto]

3 extractors to 8 plants

[raven grotto]

like in this

[trim sundial]

Finally made it to tiers 7 and 8, so much high tech stuff i have no idea where to start lol.

[neat marlin]

okay, I was doing 1 extractor 2 plants

wait how is your stuff so organized

mine is horrifying to look at

[dense violet]

!wikisearch CG

[raven axle]

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

[neat marlin]

also, do you just have 2 coal nodes? Im trying to use 4

[raven grotto]

im doing two

[dense violet]

convenient layouts for your coal gens

using 4 is very good imo

[raven grotto]

one pure one normal iirc

[dense violet]

you can get to 64 coal gens with mk3 belts and that will keep you going to tier 7

[raven grotto]

but i have mk2 miners overclocked

i have mk4 belts now and they are honestly REALLY easy to make

i thought it would be a harder to get resource

[neat marlin]

but then why dont I get enough coal from my generators with literally double the nodes you have and 1/3 of the plants

[trim sundial]

i think i want to make a vertical mall for my parts but the sucker would be like 20 levels high lol.

[raven grotto]

rates :D

[dense violet]

after you've got some reliable steel early on coal really starts to lose it's value

[neat marlin]

how come?

[dense violet]

you get away from coal power and you have enough steel - not a TON more to do with it especially if you use alt recipe

[raven grotto]

yours are probably mk1 miners underclocked

[dense violet]

you can, if you want, cut coal out of your world system entirely if you want

[raven grotto]

not overcloked i mean

[neat marlin]

correct, how would I make them overclocked

[raven grotto]

my mk2 is at 270/m

research power slugs in the MAM

[dense violet]

MAM research

most important part of the game 🙂

[raven grotto]

for sure

[neat marlin]

alr, guess im gonna be going hunting for slugs

[raven grotto]

i didnt really understand that for a bit

[dense violet]

ok and this is as little off topic

but is anyone else getting a little bit more lag time between hitting enter and the msg popping up on screen?

[neat marlin]

I am

[raven grotto]

you can get research for them to be on the object scanner

[dense violet]

I have a decent net connection so it's not that

[raven grotto]

nope

[neat marlin]

already have that 😄

luckily I found a few already

[supple canopy]

hmm lemme try

[raven grotto]

you need one of each to be able to almost fully research the tree

[supple canopy]

no instant for me

[dense violet]

....
So I know things like insta and facebook are pre processing all posts and comments through AI before it posts them... I'm going to be REAL annoyed if Discord is doing that

[young sentinel]

im at this wonky point where i believe i could pretty easily, manually, complete stage 4.
i have all the pieces to just run some things back and forth, and i could be done with stage 4 by the end of the week.
but if i want to automate everything, the right way, then it's gonna take a long time.

[dense violet]

no little lag time where the sentence is a bit grey?

[neat marlin]

yea fr

My first message when I opened dc took literally over a min to send

[dense violet]

tier or phase?

[earnest condor]

Prior to 1.2 I literally just bought Phases 4 and 5 from the Awesome Shop.

[young sentinel]

i am done with tier 8. i need to make nuclear pasta and the thrusters or whatever.

[earnest condor]

Because their costs are so low.

[dense violet]

in either case honestly if you don't have the basics automated it's gonna get real painful

[earnest condor]

Not really.

[supple canopy]

No really instant like before. But if they implement new features (like AI moderating as you suggested) they usually don't implement to all versions of all browsers or apps in one go

[raven grotto]

quick question #screenshots message

[supple canopy]

Or it's a location thing?

[raven grotto]

im thinking about moving it beforer i get into it

[dense violet]

is the location convenient for you?

[young sentinel]

i have cooling devices and fused frames, high speed connectors and etc
it wouldnt take a lot to do it manually, but then it's not as cool

[raven grotto]

it is but im thinkig i should move so i can expand without that rock being there but idk

[young sentinel]

supercomputers are automated

[dense violet]

you can also just really slopily over flow the previous items to new and let it buffer up. Don't have to make dedicated factories for the tiers

[dense violet]

build a second floor.
infinite space exploit

[raven grotto]

im moving because i dont like where i plopped down and asthetically it is a bad location for a factory

[dense violet]

oki

but yeah, as long as you're not in a cave, you have infinite space realistically

anywhere

[raven grotto]

cobalt are your factories rectagular or square

nd how do you make ur walls

[white oar]

Realistically, how many uranium fuel rods should I be making for starting to use nuclear power plants?

[raven grotto]

all of them

[earnest condor]

50.4

[white oar]

50? 😭

[dense violet]

#design-and-architecture message

[earnest condor]

50**.4**

[raven grotto]

neither got it

[dense violet]

how much power do you want is your first question

[raven grotto]

god i suck at architecture

[neat marlin]

how does one "tune the resource scanner" for slugs?

[dense violet]

I like curves xD

[earnest condor]

Right click.

[raven grotto]

i have a photo for a reference idea nd thats it

[dense violet]

check out totalXclipse for good design tips though 🙂

[white oar]

Like 20k

[dense violet]

he does solid generic concepts you can get creative with

[raven grotto]

I was watching him yesterday

didnt get to test it out tho

[dense violet]

do you think that will feed whatever you want to do when the game is more of a sandbox?

[raven grotto]

was thinking about possibly using this as an idea generator#design-and-architecture message

[neat marlin]

right click what?

[white oar]

I mean, no considering I've seen screenshot of people needing more than 100k power to power everything but I could just expand when I need to

[dense violet]

the channel? yeah I save interesting images that have neat little ideas from ther eall the time

[white oar]

I'm just tryna get it started

[raven grotto]

when having it equipped you right click till you get power slugs

[neat marlin]

nothing was happening

[earnest condor]

Step 1: Equip Object Scanner
Step 2: Confirm you are holding it in your hand directly and can see the screen.
Step 3: Right-Click to cycle through available tunings.

[dense violet]

oh that's fair. Mostly asking because to me, nuclear is probably something I want to be one and done with in a save

[neat marlin]

oh, I dont have a object scanner thats why

[raven grotto]

i saved your coal plant setup lol

[neat marlin]

I was just pressing V

[raven grotto]

kept losing it

[dense violet]

if you burn ALL the uranium with base recipes (which makes it simpler) you can get about 260gw? thats more than most will use in a sandbox

[earnest condor]

V is the Resource Scanner.
Not at all to be confused ever with the Object Scanner.
💛

[dense violet]

that's like 21 rods

[neat marlin]

oopsies

[raven grotto]

anndn just ran out of concrete in my inventory

used like 3 maybe 4k and still not done yet

[worn oar]

They fight back, you know

[white oar]

Crazy. I think I'll just make like 4 rods a min and see how far that gets me

[dense violet]

that should be like 50gw. Which is fine? but you'll want to keep your factories more modest, avoid the super high draw machines being slooped.

[ornate saffron]

with alts you can get 7.2 rods from a impure nod

thats 90 gw

[dense violet]

I think 50gw definitely would be more restrictive for most

[white oar]

I can expand in the future. It'll be annoying but expanding in general is annoying

[dense violet]

... yessss.... imo expanding nuclear later is more annoying though

[warped crane]

I'm nearing the end of the game and I don't think I'll end up using more than 30 GW 🥲

[dense violet]

I like nuclear, I think it's fun, .... but I wouldn't want to do it twice on a mpa

[ornate saffron]

this is normal ^_^

[raven grotto]

im trying to build a damn wall over here and struggling :D

[warped crane]

I think as soon as I beat this run I'm going to start a new save on 25x and port the factory over, then build bigger versions of my existing factories

[white oar]

Atp you're making me wanna go all in on Rocket fuel

[raven grotto]

maybe my sink has some tickets to distract me

[warped crane]

rocket fuel is amazing but fuel is ultimately limited by the 250kw per fuel gen

[dense violet]

eh rf is gross.
you just have fields and fields of generators

[warped crane]

after a while you'll end up just having huge fuel gen farms, and / or using a ton of shards to oc them

[dense violet]

very bland

[young sentinel]

they're all brutalist architecture i bet

[karmic pivot]

Started my first game world yesterday, got automated plates and rods going
Copper is 299metres away over a cliff or 340m flatter ground

At this point is it still ok to work towards conveyer belting everything that distance

[warped crane]

at least we have actual infinite shards now

[raven grotto]

lookin like russia in the 70s-90s

[dense violet]

you can always belt

[warped crane]

I like a good mix of coal, fuel, and nuclear

[dense violet]

also if you haven't built coal power yet you're basically in the pre tutorial, don't over think so much 🙂

[raven grotto]

or cherno alpha

[white oar]

I know, but if Nuclear is so annoying that you don't want to interact with it more than once I'd rather become America and use all the oil I can

[warped crane]

I wish there were more spots on the map with coal and sulfur next to each other tho, advanced coal plants are pretty decent

[ornate saffron]

so ya brutalism lol

[raven grotto]

cherno alpha is some badass design

[warped crane]

I'm going to be doing a 7x nuke plant with 4x uranium, 2x plut, and 1x ficsiium

[karmic pivot]

I already like and enjoy belts to much haha

[dense violet]

it's not annoying ... it's hard to describe.

[warped crane]

it's just several orders of magnitude more complex than fuel

[dense violet]

It's more like why do it twice and having to go back to it and do more power

[ornate saffron]

#design-and-architecture message

[warped crane]

that's why I'm not touching nuclear until I have ficsium unlocked and just do it once

[karmic pivot]

@earnest condor I also started in vanilla, I want those achievement which I couldn’t get if I x5 space elevator parts

[raven grotto]

awesome looks like Pripyat

[white oar]

So, I should just go for 8 then?

[dense violet]

maybe just use 1 or 2 normal nodes and do like 12. That will definitely give you breathing room to do most any modest personal prjects later

you can use the base recipes that way too

[white oar]

Got it

[dense violet]

like this is 12 u rods pm, with some resource efficient recipes tossed in (adds a bit of complexity)

cuts out Copper and Coal, but adds oil https://www.satisfactorytools.com/1.0/production?share=lhWYQRyWIGKicPUNA4Ga

you can cut a fair bit from that if you don't do recycled plastic/rubber too. Doesn't cost toooo much more oil

[ornate saffron]

this is it more or less done #design-and-architecture message

[dense violet]

I like the plubber recycle loop though personally 🙂

[raven grotto]

wow

im thinking of desinging my wall using half foundation as sort of thicker pillars with one wall concrete, then two glass, then concrete, then half foundation

[ornate saffron]

me too

[raven grotto]

this is all in my head tho rn

and i just bought angled walls so should be good

[ornate saffron]

I make most things out of pillars

[dense violet]

thick walls add depth 🙂

[raven grotto]

i mean half the long way so its more like a pillar in width when facing it

but there definitely is depth

[dense violet]

that's still depth!

[zenith nacelle]

guys do i uhh go vertical when building stuff cuz like i need to build more but the space is cramped and i'd have to move alot for me to build them all together or do i change the entire setup (idek wtf im saying)

[raven grotto]

yes

[ornate saffron]

you got 2 km of airspace. Use it at yourt leisure

[raven grotto]

verticality is a must and i still am trying to figure that out

[zenith nacelle]

will it look ugly thats the real question

cuz if so im moving the entire setup my base will become bonita whether it likes it or not

[ornate saffron]

that depends on you

[dense violet]

only if you make it ugly

and think it is.
it's a 3d game

also if you're new I really wouldn't worry too much about looks at that point 🙂

[ornate saffron]

my motor, rotor sand stator factory aint pretty but it works lol

#design-and-architecture message

[zenith nacelle]

that looks like the teen titans tower if it was upside down aka extremely cool

[raven grotto]

wait how do i place a ramp on a half foundation if its between like two foudations

[zenith nacelle]

if its yellow it jst places i think idk it does that for me

[raven grotto]

wait nvm i figured it out

[raven grotto]

well im making walls so the grids kinda all messed up

[zenith nacelle]

oh god i have to use actual brain power this isnt ending well

[raven grotto]

yellow just means its possibly clipping another built object

[dense violet]

don't stress about it too much . It's mostly practice and planning

[ornate saffron]

this is it before the glass when it was just bar bones

man this coffee cup was def worth the ticket

woirk hard and you can get a gold one

[zenith nacelle]

thank you teacher i'll make you proud

[raven grotto]

WHAT

ok

time to get this factory BUILT

i already like the look of this wall

but i might need to get blueprint mk2 before i start building it out

and its not finished either

[fair finch]

help my coal generator doesnt work its fullu pumped up with water and coal

[ornate saffron]

some ppl love the BP others not so much. I mainly use it to stamp out architecture

[ornate saffron]

make a post in #1038092680493801533 with much details and pictures

[raven grotto]

yea ive made two alr, they are sushi prebuilds for the foundry one going either way

its actually so nice idk why it was the last thing i grabbed from phase 2

almost a whole industrial storage worth of vers framework going to the sink

wiuth my very first mk4 belt

interesting half a mil p/m with 480 vers framework a minute

interesting

2.8mil each

no idea yet i just got into phase 2

holy shit

how many are made/m tho

[ornate saffron]

depends on the pioneer

[raven grotto]

like the most average setup

[ornate saffron]

I really dont know. I think the defualt from one machine is .5 /min

[raven grotto]

not bad

with slops that 1/m!

[ornate saffron]

I use BWD to avoid spoilers lol

[raven grotto]

ty for that because sometimes i do want to wait to find what stuff is

[ornate saffron]

many do ^_^

I try, i sometimes fail lol

[raven grotto]

ooooh i think that would help me get the ||cybertruck|| if i ever end up going for it

[ornate saffron]

oh thats easy.

most ppl are about the golden nut

[raven grotto]

100 tickets right

most ive held is like 15

[ornate saffron]

1000

[raven grotto]

oh

just mocked up my first wall idea

added some depth and im lowkey cooking rn

#screenshots message

oh great its too big for the blueprint

[ornate saffron]

lol

[raven grotto]

time to go get mk2

[neat marlin]

It looks good tho

[raven grotto]

i know I think the pillars made a huge difference

now beefalo if im not wrong i leave a section off right

like the end?

so its just paste paste paste

[ornate saffron]

aas lonjjg as it looks good to you

[neat marlin]

I just unlocked overclocking

[raven grotto]

i mean in the blueprint to paste it

like leave one side of the foundations off?

[white oar]

Is it possible to do without oil? I only have the Uranium fuel unit alt recipe

[ornate saffron]

you can link them up regardless if you take up the whole blueprinter

\just select blueprint mode while placing

[raven grotto]

well the hard part is the wall is clipping at a certain space

and i cant get that right with mk2

mk1*

[neat marlin]

Do I reroll this? #screenshots

[raven grotto]

or else I cant finish it

[raven grotto]

personally i think i would

[ornate saffron]

I just get them all before changing phases

[neat marlin]

which one? #screenshots

[dense violet]

oh def.

[dense violet]

easily. But if you don't have much in the way of alts I highly recommend you go on huts.

Alt recipes are the bread and butter of the game. Gives you so many paths to choose

[raven grotto]

like all milestones youre saying

[white oar]

I have a bunch of other alts, I just only have that for nuclear power

[ornate saffron]

I mean i unlock all the milestones and tiers in a phase. then i hunt recipes until the mam tells me i cannot learn anymore

[dense violet]

fair 🙂

[dense violet]

just swap the recipes around in the planner , check and uncheck what you want

[white oar]

Fair

[raven grotto]

dude I knew ADA likes me

[robust wigeon]

ADA’s strongest soldier

[raven grotto]

oh GREAT closest crude oil is almost TWO KILOMETERS AWAY

[dense violet]

game forces you to expand! just make a belt

[raven grotto]

so should i localize rubber production there then i assume

[young sentinel]

truck stations are so annoying

[raven grotto]

and then belt it and the fuel over here

because i prolly want the fuel for jet packs

[gentle dune]

THE SYSTEM WILL SET ME FREE

Oops wrong game, I meant
THE FACTORY MUST GROW

[dense violet]

probably easier to process ther eyes

[dense violet]

if yo uwant, but you could jsut depot the fuel

[raven grotto]

well theres two crude oil deposits where im looking right now

[dense violet]

what is the problem?

[raven grotto]

i need to find spheres then

oh then i can package it huh

[dense violet]

they are everywhere. But up to you too, easy to belt

[raven grotto]

i need to look into oil on the wiki first

have no idea about anything

[dense violet]

pretty much like anything else really - look at the recipes, do some basic maths

[neat marlin]

welp, I'm getting 900MW out of my plant, hopefully thats enough for me to build my factory to complete phase 2

[raven grotto]

good thing i looked, because i needed to get fluid packaging and luckily i had plastic from crash site hunting

[dense violet]

I mean if you looked at your recipes you would also know yo udidn't have the package recipe 😛

[neat marlin]

question, should I make it 250% on 2 machiens or should I spread the 150% over a bunch?

[raven grotto]

dont look at them a lot

[neat marlin]

Im talking about overclocking

[ornate saffron]

early game its great to make Heavy oil residue then use the Diluted packaged fuel for jet packs and vehicles and power

[young sentinel]

setting up pathing and fueling them

[raven grotto]

see i did 10 hard drive scans BEFORE i unlocked oil processing obv i should have waited :/

[ornate saffron]

naw, you removed those from the pool of options.

[young sentinel]

HOWEVER
i think once i unlock everything and then tear everything down and uhhhhhhhh rebuild
then trucks should be less annoying

[ornate saffron]

tearing everything down then rebuilding is torture

[raven grotto]

i have 4 sitting to be redeemed n then i got recycled rubber

or pure copper ingot

should i get the rubber one?

nah ill let it sit

[ornate saffron]

recycled recipes are pretty nice

[dense violet]

part of the planning
have a truck that brings fuel to the trucks if it's not local
for ease of planning you need to plan factories round trucks to make it easier to path

[neat marlin]

anyone else get random urges to redo their entire factory

[raven grotto]

why do you think i made that wall :D

im actually moving like 500 meters away too

[ornate saffron]

I just leave old to do its thing then makle more

[raven grotto]

right now im sorta trying to speed through some of these milestones to try and get blueprint mk2

currently making generators to make heavy frames and computers

[ornate saffron]

you are playing a different game then I if your generators make Heavy frames and Computers lol

[raven grotto]

making generators to unlock the ability to make heavy frames n computers

[ornate saffron]

it was a jest

[raven grotto]

tis but a scratch to me

[ornate saffron]

A scratch? YOUR ARM IS BLOODY OFF!

[raven grotto]

no it isnt

[robust wigeon]

You and everyone everywhere

[robust wigeon]

(copious amounts of ketchup were used in the production of this film)

[raven grotto]

yo a fully overclocked + slooped assembler takes 200mw not bad

[worn oar]

I don't know how people are able to play fully vanilla. I seemingly can't

[raven grotto]

its my first time :D

[worn oar]

I didn't mean you in particular

[raven grotto]

oh you mean people with like 100s upon 100s of hours still vanilla?

heh im at 69.7

[ornate saffron]

im at 1165.5 vanilla

[raven grotto]

already my second most played game and ive only played for one week

my thumb is starting to hurt from alt tabbing all the time tho

[ornate saffron]

jnot even close to my most played game lol

[raven grotto]

my most is project zomboid with like 71

satisfactory will be my first 100 hour game

[ornate saffron]

my ffxiv is pushing 16000

[raven grotto]

how the hell

[ornate saffron]

im old. some ppl come home from work and watch foot ball or go to the bar. I pl,ay ffxiv with friends

@abstract heron is almost at 20k for satisfactory lol

[abstract heron]

what about me

[ornate saffron]

rewad above statement lkol

[native tapir]

I'm at 1300+ and probably 1000 vanilla. I still play almost exclusively vanilla but I install mods to test things that I want to recreate in vanilla

I like to use location rotation and other similar mods to test vanilla build tech

Oh. I do use camera mods like a MF. But that's for making videos not for building anything

[raven grotto]

#screenshots message good boy

[old rapids]

all my lizard doggos fell through the map

[dense violet]

did you leave them on thick foundations/

[merry thunder]

||I am exsited about June 2||

[worn oar]

I am existed too

[old rapids]

no they fell through the land

this is tragedy

[dense violet]

yeah you need to keep pet doggos in a pen

[raven grotto]

i just gassed an alpha spittrer lol

[dense violet]

can you load a previous save?

[merry thunder]

how do you build a pen?

I tried foundation and they got out

[dense violet]

probably thicker foundations and 4m walls

likely more info on the wiki

[merry thunder]

ah alright

thanks

whoops

theres no way this isnt guarded right

[orchid mica]

Anyone knows where I can find beginner friendly layouts for production?

[worn oar]

Please don't look up how to optimize or guides unless you have to. It spoils at least half the fun of the game

Although it's easier to build if you put things on foundations

[dense violet]

also most guides arne't very good + you won't actually learn the basics or how to fix them

[dense violet]

basically do some basic maths with the recipes you have - if you want use a good planner like this https://www.satisfactorytools.com/1.0/production?share=9QdFRDbtiY6wEgN0PuBO

[worn oar]

If that's from the steam guide it says the threats if there are any

[raven grotto]

the wiki

[worn oar]

Ah ok not sure let me look

Unguarded 👍🏻

[raven grotto]

fire

this is all because i really dont want to unlock the manufactuer n stuff all i want is blueprints mk2 for my walls

[white oar]

I looked it up, and that is the maximum you could make per min 😭

[dense violet]

well without Alien tech - but yeah I did that once. Good times

not actually awful to do either. Just takes a few more resource types

[raven grotto]

man i died because i fell and pressed shift+tab when trying to equip my parachute

[white oar]

Jetpack

[worn oar]

Not actually awful. My brother in christ it's like the most complicated thing in the game or you have to blueprint a new storage container stack every day

[raven grotto]

ran out of fuel bc it can refuel in air :p

[white oar]

Sounds like a skill issue

(I died to a spider today)

[raven grotto]

awe you died to a kitty cat?

[white oar]

My jetpack didn't jetpack so it killed me

[raven grotto]

dude what do i do with 15 control rods and 9 turbo motors in phase 3

sink them?

[teal shell]

how do I access the to do list on controller?

[dense violet]

save for unlocks?

[raven grotto]

i guess idunno

sweet all i need to do now is make some rubber

love how far you can progress via crash sites and not doing milestones properly

[dense violet]

you have to automate the parts for milestones anyway otherwise you're not going to get far

[raven grotto]

eh im not trying to rn

all i want is blueprint thingy mk2

[warped crane]

lol this tractor route uses ~70 coal per round trip

[raven grotto]

if i make a wall blueprint i should leave one side empty so it attatches to the existing wall correct

[orchid mica]

8 Hours in and I am not efficient enough but I just managed to unlock the spagehetti acheivement

[latent prawn]

cutting it a little close on that. FYI, coke can also be used in the tractor/truck. While it is slightly less energy per unit, having a stack size of 200 actually gives more range than with coal

[old rapids]

do yall actually use these

i thought they were a gimmick

and you just skip to trains

[earnest condor]

Yes. That was for when you asked how many and someone else said "all of them" 😁

[dense violet]

trucks are great?
just gotta plan around with them

[latent prawn]

in 1.2/experimental, the vehicles are very good and i've been using them primarily if i don't need more than 2 belts worth of stuff

[dense violet]

1.1 still great, just need some basic knowledge

[earnest condor]

Why would I skip to less throughput, higher fuel cost, higher infrastructure cost?

[old rapids]

it wont matter at that point because oil

[latent prawn]

ehh, the old routing system made them derp out whenever paths intersected

[old rapids]

its also not that expensive

[earnest condor]

Ok so take fuel out.
Other points stand.

[old rapids]

Trains are fairly cheap though?

[dense violet]

with trucks all you need are 2 stations and a bit of fuel. Trains typically need tons of infrastructure and use way more power

[earnest condor]

What does that have to do with throughput or the massive space they require?

[old rapids]

just put them in the air

[dense violet]

sky infrastructure is a loss condition

[latent prawn]

they take a long time to lay down distance and the power cost if you're playing on +1x power per train is pretty steep

[earnest condor]

Ok so if you are choosing to float train stations in the air, cool.
Final point still stands.

[stable tulip]

This place is more active so I guess I'll ask here:
So do these numbers sound right to someone else:
100.8 Uranium Reactors @ 250%
75.6 Plutonium Reactoes @ 250%
94.5 Ficsonuim Reactors @ 250%

[latent prawn]

looks a little sus

[earnest condor]

Where did our friend NumbersSebastian go?

[dense violet]

100.8
0
0

[stable tulip]

Hahaha.... hahaha.....

[old rapids]

im still here

im busy though

[stable tulip]

I am going to destroy you.

[dense violet]

ficsonium is punishment for burning p rods. Why would you do that?

uh huh.

[stable tulip]

Because I want to.

[earnest condor]

You were not busy until the final point stood up.
Suddenly busy?

[old rapids]

lol you win the discord argument, good job mate
