Im really new to this thing, doing you tube videos. But i have absolutetly no problem at all sharing my blueprints, it would actually make me feel good. I don't have many blueprints right now as i just restarted at 1.0. But would gladly share this one. Let me know how! (Not willing to spend money though)

If this is the issue you are having, it's quite easy to fix. Mass dismantle the pipes (using the filter) but dont dismantle any support, intersection, pump etc. Only the pipes. After that, rebuild the pipes connecting the elements that are left. Shouldnt take that long

Hey, thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. Had to travel because of my job for 1 week, so content is delayed. But i get back home tomorrow, and we will start finishing this bad boy 🎉

Hey there! Don’t get frustrated-fluids can be really tricky to get right, and they’re more complex than they might seem at first. The good news is that the current fluid bug is actually pretty easy to identify and fix, which I’m covering in the beginning of this video. I’m also planning to upload a more advanced video soon that will dive deeper into fluid dynamics, which should help a lot with these issues. In the meantime, check out the description of this video for a list of tips on solving common fluid problems. I think the most important one is doing several smaller systems instead of a big one. Meaning, dont merge 8 fluid generators in a pipe, to later divide that pipe into 4 consumers. That's asking for trouble! Do several smaller systems. In this case, only 2 generators connected to 1 consumer. If the math doesnt work, consider underclocking/overclocking consumers or generators, until you are able to sub-divide the system. This will help with backflow issues, that are generally related to the path of the pipes and cause a lot of trouble. Hang in there-hope this helps!

@@ppeez that was the first fuel factory, done with regular fuel recipe. Don't think it can be done much better than that.

@@nlopez113 glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for stopping by!

@@DarkSoul45456 yes. This bug happens only when you add stuff over an existing pipe. And so far, this one is still present in 1.0 🥲

@toza7874 thanks! Glad you enjoyed!

Aww man, thanks! It means a lot! This kind of comments encourage me to keep making videos ❤. Welcome to the satisfactory world! Hope you enjoy this awesome game. See you around

@Tylobic absolutely! But there's no plan to add more machines on this one. The idea is to get the compacted coal out of there and into the next building that's going to be doing the turbo fuel. This building is basically done, and if there are some modifications, they are going to be minor. And when I was designing it, I already knew that I needed 2 blueprints, and the size of those blueprints, so no risk of running out of space. If I had placed every single machine necessary for all of the production line into the same building, it would have ended up being huuuge, so I decided to divide it into different smaller blocks. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for stopping by

@MrMagooBoogaloo currently working on the final touches, sometime today! (Sydney time)

Привет! Спасибо, что зашли! Рад, что вам понравился контент. Вторая часть почти готова, может быть, завтра я ее выложу. 😊 Это было переведено Google, так как я не говорю по-русски. Извините, если это не имеет особого смысла. Ура!

@@NicoBuilds-g3u супер! В ожидании.

@MrTenebKel Yes, I know there's better spots out there. But this is just the first build of this world, I'll leave those spots for more complex builds. Also, I was kind of afraid I might run out of any materials. But so far dimensional depots did the trick. They rock!

@bergerrr8056 hey! Thanks for stopping by! Glad you are finding my videos useful. Next one is almost done and might be interesting to you then, as I show the whole build from start to end.

You mean in the factory of this video? They werent! But it got fixed when I resolved the bug I describe in this same video. Still, this kind of set up isn't the best and is prone to issues. In general, you don't want to connect two fluid generators in the same system. If the pipes aren't 100% symmetrical and the system isn't absolutely balanced, you can end up with one generator pumping into the other one, or one having more "priority". It's still manageable but not recommended

Can be solved with a full pressure start-up. Will be showing that when I finish the turbo fuel power plant I'm working on my 1.0 series. But ideally, don't connect several generators to the same system. If you have 8 coal power plants and 4 extractors, connect 1 exctractor to 2 coal plants and make 4 systems. If you have 2 nuclear power plants and 4 water exctractors, connect 2 water exctractors to 1 power plant and do two systems. This way is unlikely you will have this kind of issues. And when connecting more than 1 liquid generator to a system, make sure the connection between both generators is as symmetrical as possible, and keep an eye on them for some time at the beginning. You want each one of them seeing the same "resistance"

@logansmith4849 what do you mean 2-6 ratio? 2 water extractors for 6 coal generators? That doesn't work! Water extractor provides 120 m3, while coal generators consume 45 m3 Doing 2-6 would mean giving 240 m3 to a system that needs 270. At the end, your coal generators will end up working at 88,8% If you want to do that, you need to overclock every single water generator. And when connecting them, I would suggest connect them independently. 1 water exctractor for 3 coal generators. Individual systems. (Remembering to overclock the water generator!)

The way I like to set up coal is 8 coal generators with 4 water extractors. Each water exctractor connected to only 2 coal generators, nothing else. And I also underclock them so that they provide 90m3 instead of their usual 120 m3. The 4-8 ratio lets you build something symmetric that looks nice. The underclocking saves power. Connecting each water exctractor to only 2 machines makes it simple to set up. Having 4 separate systems instead of only 1 highly decreases the chances of errors (like backflow, or exceeding the capacity of a pipe)

Yeah realized this after I posted it some, people I had seen on yt was using the set up. But I did the math and realized it was off lol over clocked the pumps and it works fine now.

@coondog7934 this hasn't been fixed, nevertheless they fixed the mk2 bug. So right now this is the only thing you need to pay attention. Then, if your are having troubles with pipes you can't blame the devs, you are simply doing something wrong. 😅 I will be doing a video on a full pressure start-up in a couple of weeks, when I finish the turbo fuel factory we are currently building in my 1.0 series. That's a good way to avoid having issues.

@@NicoBuilds-g3u nah, trust me, I'm playing according to the physic laws ingame (no pumps involved, no inclines etc.). Sometimes I build pipes and adding valves and junctions later on and suddenly nothing flows through them anyomore (with weird overlapping parts due to badly cut pipes and belts as shown in your video). Then I delete them and rebuild them EXACTLY as before without the overlaps though and suddenly it works (which led me to believe it is the bug mentioned in this video since no or less fluid flowing back). Same with conveyor belts sometimes. Products get stuck in conveyor splitters after adding them to an existing network for absolutely no reason. If I rebuild them suddenly it works. It is a weird bug and it doesn't seem to be fixed yet. I can't seem to reproduce it reliably though but working on it.

​​@@coondog7934i will be doing an advanced video on fluids in some weeks to try to explain why these problems happen, and how to fix them. Devs have been testing fluids out nonstop and they were unable to find a bug. Trust me, they work. It doesn't mean they are easy to set up

It might be missing the "cho chooo" part, but still, It can transport the same or even more amount of materials, and it helps you move from one place to another way faster... If i ever manage to turn that network on. We'll see... Thanks for stopping by!

I did however change all my pipes that where interconnected to like what you showed me. that may also have helped.

@@datsawesome3241 glad you got it fixed mate. That video you saw anyway is 11 months old. That was the floating point error that has been fixed in 1.0!. Haven't played that much with liquids so far in 1.0, so far had no issues. Anyway right now im doing a huge turbo fuel in my 1.0 playthrough, so in a couple of videos i will experience it first hand with a good challenge. Hope everything runs smooth

@datsawesome3241 hey! I have included in the video description a list of tips to troubleshoot them. If that still doesn't work i would simply change the set up. Water is an infinite resource. It's not worth stressing about it. I would use 2 pipes, on two different systems. One for 7 coal generators and the other one for 6. Play with the overclocking of the water pumps so that you get the right numbers. That should fix it! In general, having several water extractors pumping into the same pipe is kind of hard to set up. If the branches aren't exactly symmetric, 1 water pump will have more priority than the other one. Dividing it into smaller more manageable systems is way easier (Ideally, having only 1 water extractor per system). Divide and you'll conquer! 🎉

And if you don't want to change your current set up, check which of the water generators isn't currently working at 100%, the issue might be close to it!

i had the same problem in my new 1.0 save with my first tier 1 pipe coal generator line i missed an pump that was the only issue i had no problems so far with pipes

@tomoliop Hey, thanks for stopping by! Hope you can get your fluids working! I've updated the video description with a list of tips to troubleshoot them. Check them out If you are still having issues

Mine looks more like a spreading virus on the planet.

@@gopherchucksgamingnstuff2263 No need to feel bad about it though. There is no correct way of playing satisfactory. I just really enjoy decorating and thinking about perfect logistics. The downside? My progress is extremely slow, will probably take ages to complete the game. And if indeed you are interested in doing factories that look nice, I dont think you should be comparing yourself with content creators. Just focus on improving with each build and enjoy the game while playing. You'll eventually get there! Thanks for stopping by :)

Thanks buddy!

Hehe, I knew eventually someone would catch that :) Yup, but now that 1.0 released, i'm not playing commander in a long long time. MTG gives you shit ton of names no name your stuff, thats useful. Thanks for stopping by!

And thank you for stopping by! Just restarted at 1.0. It will be some time until I unlock everything to be able to build like this again, but that's the plan.

Thanks Buddy, glad you enjoyed it!

Floating point rounding errors. Unfortunately, there is no fixing the MK2 bug, just have to be mindful

​@Reptonious thats actually incorrect. It has been confirmed by the devs that it has been fixed on 1.0. Right now the only current bug is the one I describe on this video, that's related to how building works in the game, and not exactly regarding to pipes. Still systems might clog sometimes, but this is not a bug! I will do an advanced video on fluids to try to explain these type of issues. There's a lot of misconceptions about how they work. There are design techniques that can help you avoid all of these issues. This factory im showing on video was done on early access, has mk2 pipes at full capacity, and still works with no issues! It only took weeks of troubleshooting, investigating and learning

You are wrong. You speak as if this bug was always present. It was not. Mk2 pipes definitely could transport 600m3 even before 1.0. The bug could occur sometimes if you do bad fluid management

​@ppeez after doing fixing all my pipes according to the video it did nothing. After switching from a mk2 pipe to 2 mk1 pipes, carrying 600 turbo, no more idle fuel gens. They also said they FIXED the glowing power line glitch.... looks like Christmas in my game. Just saying.

@@uolocur9356 bad planning. It works fine for me, everywhere

Im really hoping they fix it in 1.0. But anyway, no matter what, I think I will be checking the pipes every time I place them for the rest of my life. I spent soo many hours trying to fix that crap.

Its most likely this bug! It mostly happens when the pipes are at max capacity, so better start by checking those. It doesn't matter what technique you use, water towers, pumps, valves, praying to 3 different gods... If one of the pipes is not properly cut, there will be backflow. Hope you manage to fix it!

You won't ever be able to feed exactly 600 into machines along a single Mk 2 pipe, even if your pipes say they are pushing 600. It's an old bug. From the wiki: "Mk.2 Pipelines have issues transporting fluid at its max capacity, 600 m3/min. Despite its reading shows 600, there is s 1~3 % loss in fluid flow, so it is advised not to use its full capacity." This was a bug with floating point calculations that they accepted when they made the Mk2 pipes, and is probably why despite them about to give us another tier of conveyor belts they still haven't bothered with a Mk3 pipe.

@@tervalas Might be hard, but not impossible. That power plant has been working nonstop at 100% for over 100 hours now. (I regularly check, because I'm a weirdo) That bug you are talking about if I recall correctly was due to floating point decimals, and I think it got fixed. Edit: I just remembered that there's still another unfixed bug (confirmed by snoop in a dev stream a couple of weeks ago). You should never mix 2 different types of pipes on the same system. They must be all either mk1 or mk2... I should have added that to the video :S

@@NicoBuilds-g3u From what I remember is that there is no real fix for it (floating point calculations are all inexact on computers and the main reason it isn't an issue with the 300 m3 pipes is that the error is much less) but that some people have seen things work out fine but most don't. I don't build pipe networks by laying out a whole pipe and snapping components to it (I have the same issue with conveyor belts and snapped components not functioning at all let alone simply affecting it) and I still have flow issues when having things set to only use exactly 600.

@@tervalas i m not stupid to feed 600 fuel gen with one pipe is have 12 pipes in to the machines every 50 machines has one pipe if you want i can show you the power planet i quit the game on march 29 because 1.0 to release

Thanks mate! Glad you liked it! Dont worry if you succeed or not. Your goal should be focused on improving with each factory rather than building something that looks a specific way. And always having fun throughout the way!. It took me several ugly factories to be able to make something like this, and I still would love to improve even more. Baby steps :)

@@NicoBuilds-g3u Thanks for the advice hehe. I'll try my best 😀

@nikamak1617 hey! Thanks for stopping by. And glad you enjoyed them :) Took some long time to do these logistics videos

Thanks buddy! Thanks for the support :)

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it :)

I understand the math, and right now I regret not having Mk5 to actually test it (There's no time to unlock it. 1.0 is coming soon and it will break my world. I'm actually hurrying up to get to show what I have done). I still think that upgrading the left line wouldn't change anything, as that consumption is limited by the assemblers, which simply can't take more materials than they need (Their internal buffer is always full, thanks to the smart splitter) I described the whole scenario to chat GPT, including belt speed, internal buffer of the machines, and how the cycle of the recipe works (time vs materials). According to chatGPT, increasing the left line wouldn't help. Of course, this is not binding, as chatGPT tends to say you are right and others are wrong. So, I don't consider this actual proof. This is the conclusion it wrote after providing some explanations: "The viewer's suggestion that the system’s overall drain rate is what causes the issue isn’t entirely accurate because it overlooks the importance of handling bursts caused by the assembler's cyclic consumption. Simply put, making both belts the same speed ensures that bursts on the right side are managed effectively, which is why your solution worked. Upgrading the left belt wouldn’t make a difference, but ensuring the right belt can handle the peaks is crucial." I will definitely try this out after the game releases, because you might be right. Nevertheless, I stand on my suggestion which requires no math at all. If all of your lines (from beginning to the end) are the same speed, you won't ever find this issue, and you won't have to do crazy math. Thanks for the comment! You got me thinking and grabbing my calculator. Now I'm not entirely certain of what I tried to explain. Maybe a really cool viewer with Mk5 lines and a lot of spare time could try it out? (blink, blink)

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it. And you are the first ever person to comment on my channel, so you are allowed to feel important! More videos coming soon, wanna show everything before 1.0, which will break my whole world.
