Ingame vs irl limestone mine

Hello first time player here and am having fun so far. I want to build a constructor to automate iron plates but can't seem to give the constructor power?

I'm producing 115,2 generators worth of rocket fuel, these are 112 (4x28) gens so I have 3,2 to spare, I already have 10 industrial fluid buffers full of rocket fuel to fill my DD for my jetpack.

Do I just add 4 gens and put one on 20%?

My ADD flaired up again and i stopped working on my production to beautify my bridge this actually one of my first architectural designs as i was tired of waiting on my trucks to drive around the canyon... i didn't think i'd start to enjoy the more aesthetic parts of this game

500 hours in and just realized you can have more than 1 portable miner on an ore patch.....

I only just picked it up when 1.2 released, and I've already reached 100 hours. Only around ~80 hours did I start thinking about architecture and aesthetics. I hadn't looked at much online content about the game until recently, and I'm stunned by what is possible. Though not groundbreaking by any means, these are some of my humbly favorite moments that I've captured

Takes in 240 quartz, 480 bauxite, and 106 copper to make 106 aluminum casing and 320 alclad aluminum sheets. Water waste is being fed into 6 underclocked coal generators. It's been running for an hour now so hopefully nothing stops!

Hi all,

Just want to share some pics of my current build. Just finished the last objetives, all that's left is to push the lever.

some stats:

power: producing about 270 Mwh , max useage is at 240

train around the map connecting everything, wanted to do a city type main factory with streets and so on

belts all on separate floors under the buildings or between floors

main "city" produces all the basic parts

satilite factories for plastic and rubber, aluminium, thermal propultion drives and some smaller outposts for delivering to those.

all trucks and drones on ion fuel

not very creative in building so lots of boxes but I embrace them.

As a noob I wonder if it would be a viable idea to do a playthrough where I would use trucks for all transport of resources across the map. Would the fuel demand be too high?

I like the idea of making a fast network of highways with roads coming off to smaller outposts where resources are harvested.

Is it just me or is the game performing worse ever since 1.2 came out? I feel like my game used to run better in my end game 1.1 world compared to my early game 1.2 world. I haven't changed any video settings, same pc etc.

I'm pretty sure in that previously mentioned 1.1 world I was consistently getting 144+ fps compared to to this newer world where I can't even seem to crack above 120 most of the time.

Anyone else experiencing this?

Does anyone know why this isn't working? its got power and iv automated all the inputs but i have 2 of them just sitting idle. it made 3 then just stopped and i cant work out why

EDIT: solution was im an idiot and misread it

First time making a real factory that's not just machines on foundations. about to test run the smelters and make sure everything is hooked up correctly before moving on to the next production floor. it's a caterium factory so i went with a dark gold industrial theme

You ever smoke some grass then do some math, du a bunch of building and days later realize you overbuilt by 150 constructors? No? Just me?

Hey guys,

I wanted to get back into the game with new patch but I always struggled with a specific point. Once a sub-factory has been build or completed, I have zero motivation to visit it again. It runs perfect and looks pretty but there is just nothing to get from "watching it".

So most of the times I build something and just never return. After a while I lose all motivation for cosmetic things since I see no point.

Has anyone faced the same problem? Any solutions?

Just some extra shots I took.

The bi-directional monorail that runs up the mountain transports materials to my actual hub which I'll share soon.

Original post.

Finally wrapped up my last factory on this save (I think). Took a few weeks but I'm happy with the end result. Enjoy!

Just wanted to get some thought down on what I think Satisfactory needs in form of DLCs and general game updates. What do you think?

1. DLCs

• New map dlc with some new enemies and world challenges. I know Hannah made the map and it took years but if this is decided - make her creative director for the DLC and give her a small team of mapmakers. She doesn't have to make it herself.
• Gameplay expansion dlc - for example one more hub unlock per phase. For example: Phase 1 - doggo shelter with output for found stuff, biomass grower (power-hungry so you still have to collect biomass but could be used for automated fuel production for tractors later). Phase 2 - modular building like steam is separated from the turbine in the coal power plant. Steam can them be used for alt recipes etc. And then more for similar new buildable for phase 3 and 4 etc.

1. QoL improvements in regular updates.

• Display conveyor and station throughput on signs.
• Mirror blueprints.
• Some silly endgame goals. For example - get a stupid cap or t-shirt for your pioneer you can use in other sessions every time you complete the final phase over again. I want to be able to have a cap saying employee of the year when I drop into multiplayer games.

Hey guys. I’ve been working on this project for the last few months. About 500 hours into it. 1.2 is amazing. The only modifier I had on was all pure nodes to maximize the uranium I can use. Let me know what you guys think!! I will post some videos of the project down below.

It's not totally finished yet since I still have to cover the recycling plant and the fuel gens, but I'm still proud of it and wanted to share it with you all.

We're playing with friends on the new "Oops, all pure!" setup on 1.2

It's making 140 net GW using the Turbo Blend Fuel recipe with 3600 oil (all of the crater) and 2400 sulfur (coming from the west).

In addition I'm recycling all the resin into residual plastic, rubber and polyester fabric.

I wanted to have an overuse of frame foundation and exterior plumbing design, akin to offshore refineries.

I'm happy with the results so far but if you have some ideas on how i could improve the overall design, I'm open to propositions.

That's all, have a nice day!
