      Mate I had to do a whole 150 000 mw on a few pieces of paper. The power plant used 60 nuclear reactors. Later on I had to build the thing to get rid of the waste however I made a mistake and made it to consume 700 waste which ain't bad but I lost a lot of time (around 850 buildings)💀

    A simple thing, but also remember that you can also build vertical. You do not have to build everything on the same floor.
    Can be an 'easy' way of scaling, simply to build an identical production floor on top and merge the output.

      @mitchellsidebottom9271 5 месяцев назад +6

      Funny part is that after you unlock foundations and walls, ADA tells you to experiment with verticality when designing assembly lines; when you factor in the correlating dimensions of foundations, smelters and constructors, the matching input/output ratios between buildings in the first steps of most assembly lines, and how lifts can be connected to buildings and splitters without the use of belts, I suspect that stacking the buildings in an orientation where the output of one building connects to the input of the building directly above it via a single lift was one intended way of doing things.
      Now I need to test this out in detail; if this works it will save an insane amount of space if some low tier recipes feed each other without the use of a single belt or splitter.

Till I started crunching the numbers myself. God it feels good to painstakingly calculate how much in I need to support 8 assemblers that need 18.75 metal plates and 33.6 copper coils a minute, and everything working without stopping.

    In addition, for anyone else who is reading this I strongly urge you to use RUclips's safe feature to create a satisfactory guide and save this video to that guide since this gentleman provides a lot of useful and helpful information.
    Also to the gentleman who creates this beautiful video I hope you and your wife are doing well and having a lot of fun since you were still newlyweds.

    No matter how much you plan. Satisfactory will always be a game about feeling absolute pride and joy for building something than feeling absolute disgust and horror realizing how much better you could have made it. Than tearing every single thing down and rebuilding it 10 x better. Over and over and over.

    Pointing out on the satisfactory tools site you can also edit the inputs including the available ore and set the output to maximize the available resources. For what your doing, set iron to 120 and industral beams to maximize, thus it'll the most efficient numbers.

  • @stenmartens7179
    @stenmartens7179 Год назад +7

    while this is a great episode i feel like the core game's design is what makes it difficult. you have shown here how to build a neat looking and functional factory based on what you need. but the problem with satisfactory i feel is that you never know what you're gonna need. and as long as you can keep on scaling what you already have that isn't a problem but i've found that that's increasingly difficult since you're going to require space which you didnt account for when buildling initially.
    in my case we've built a factory to produce computers, then unlocked the aluminum tier and realized we were going to basically have to redesign the factory again because what we had wouldn't be scaling nicely towards supercomputers and turbo engines. i feel that this is the biggest difference between factorio and satisfactory where satisfactory of course isnt at all about aesthetics, but the building itself is much less of a hassle and you're rarely going to get so surprised that you'd have to redesign your entire factory again.

    • @matt69nice
      @matt69nice Год назад +3

      Although I agree the build mechanics can make redesigns difficult, planning factories well is also something that comes with practice.

    • @greeny-dev
      @greeny-dev Год назад +3

      that's why I recommend that you start each product from scratch, that way you never plan for future, you plan only for now. Every new build makes all the resources it needs itself, so every previous factory can stay and keep producing materials for storage.

  • @donaldpetersen2382
    @donaldpetersen2382 Год назад +8

    Re-asking the same question I had on the last video, tips for vertical building. I have been building 2x3 on each level for effective splitter usage. Should I note any potential changes with the addition of smart splitters or mrk4+ logistics? Any design tips for industrial towers? I can't wait to replace the belt wall leading to them with a train.

    • @goodisnipr
      @goodisnipr Год назад +3

      Choose a cardinal direction that you want inputs and another to put outputs on, and keep your belts feeding the factory at that respective wall as you go up.
      I tend to make all my feeding belts along the North wall, and outputs go out the SouthEast corner.
      I've also realized to never build on ground. My factory floors are now a minimum 16m above ground to allow for future basements since we can't dig underground.
      Train depots out the basements, drone depots on the rooftops, mini-structures built around miners to act as the stilts for the factories looks pretty cool.

      ​@@donaldpetersen2382 You're very welcome.
      Water Extractor ought be from the highest body of water you can find it from, then pipe anywhere you want. No head-lift pumps are needed unless building even higher that.
      Speaking of high, I wish we had an altimeter to allow for easier factory planning.
      _______________________________________
      I found something about smart splitters.
      TL:DR Smart splitters do not operate properly with Mk.1 belts for certain, didn't test mk2, I went straight to mk3 with this application.
      The details:
      I wanted to setup a Manufacturer (it has 4 inputs) but I wanted to be able to dump all items into 1 container.
      Container 1 belted to Smart Splitter 1.
      Smart Splitter 1 took Item1 off the left to the Manufacturer, OverFlow out the middle to Smart Splitter 2, Item2 off the right to the Manufacturer.
      Smart Splitter 2 took item3 off the left to the Manufacturer, OverFlow out the middle back to Container 1, and Item4 off the right to the Manufacturer.
      When the manufacturer had filled up and the items backlogged to the splitters, I found the splitters themselves held items inside them (by using the deconstruct tool and seeing what resources I'd receive).
      So, when I had the exact amount of items in my inventory to manufacture the exact amount of items needed for the goal, I put all the items in the one container and watched.
      As the resources emptied, I found the manufacturer had only 1 item left to make and was short items because the smart splitters were holding up to 5 of each item itself.
      I upgraded the belts connected to the smart splitters and that made them empty.
      ___________________________________________
      So far I'm about to unlock HoverPacks if I can have the game stop crashing while trying to produce aluminium (my pc is a PoS, I have to play in a 800x600 size window and still only get 9fps at the iron facility). I have unlocked trains (haven't built one yet), only producing 600MW of power using 8 coal generators and typically only use about 300MW. Highest grade items being made at the moment is Turbo Engines (at 1 per minute) and Heavy Modular Frames (at 2/min). Currently working on getting a central storage facility set up with a built in Bio-resources processor with the hub and space elevator on the roof. Tried hypertubes for the first time yesterday, very happy with them.

    @9:19, I'm usually arrested at this stage, TX, and while I like this video I have ideas for a chapter 2. Because, the map lends itself to so many truck pathways, naturally through the topography and now at this factory you've built at this chokepoint, vehicles cannot move under the factory. Trucks are going to be obstructed - so is the buggy. Your tip 9 is don't box in the factory - I agree - but what about boxing out trains and trucks?
    I'd love to see more help/your insights on how to plan these separable, modular, scalable factory sites so they can grow up or out without introducing too many new constraints on regional logistics for cars and trains. I myself prefer (and maybe i'm having problems with) to have a floating foundation so there is still much breathing space for traversal, I also enjoy putting smoggy buildings like smelters etc. down there sometimes, but I also other problem with factories is - often I'd prefer all the smog up on the roof, and I know some players just shove it in and don't care about the smog or are optimizing for maximum utilization of minimal space (as you do) but I think the optimization you're demonstrating in this video will introduce some potential ah-fux to a player when they start going eg. nuclear and everything really has to come together. But, I do love how your miners look next to your bldg - absolutely gorgeous. Miners are usually things that constraint the minimum ceiling of my factory's transit-basement. I hate getting late in the game and not being able to use a naturally occuring pathway for a railway to take etc. because I have already planted a scaling factory directly in its path.
    We know they're gonna rework trucks etc. so I figure just get prepared now for trucks possibly becoming new meta and give them ample space to shine.

    because all the belts and pipes are concealed i don’t have to worry about alignment or even belt intersections because i won’t see them! another perk of them being high above the ground is that i can have all of the inter-module-factory logistics be noodly under the ground level

If you are going to do something that is pretty involved, don't you seek some sort of training, schooling, advice, or even simply google it first?

    can u make a video about how to efficiently bus resources around because im kinda having problems with that - especially inside the factory itself for it to look decent. recently i made a new start at the northern forest perfect spot and built platform factory from there toward the spire coast but ran into the same problem with bussing.

    Helpful concise content as always @TotalXclipse!!
    I'm hoping to find a video of yours where you cover the 4m logistics floor you build at 9:24. I love the idea of that but I'm also wondering if it makes it painful to troubleshoot issues down there in the future. Though perhaps if one's planning and testing is thorough enough you'd never need to go down there again. But then my brain interrupts and says, "Even the best planning can't account for everything. In fact the best planning would account for needing to come back and look under the hood." My brain be a bloody damn argumentative bastard, and no mistake.

    I need to get back into it. Currently I'm trying to learn dwarf fortress. 😂 But the thing that I always get stuck on is I don't know how big I want to go. In factorio, I work to fill a belt to work a bus. This game is a little different, so I'll decide, ok I need to build rotors. Ok, so how many? I have a hard time seeing the big picture in this game like I can in games like factorio.

    Hey guys, I'm playing Satisfactory for the very first time, although I have already played other automation games, I'd like to have an opinion: although this is helpful, I'd really like to "learn" from my very first time own experience, no info, no vids more than my imagination. Is that a recommendable thing to do? Or it's better start thinking like this from rhe begining? Thanks to whoever reads this 😅

    why place foundation for first floor above logistics floor 5 high and not four? doesnt a second story usually snap to 4 up? (unless you raise it up with a 4m foundation first). Do some of the logistics not fit then? I never know how high to make my first floor (not including logistics floor) and a second story. I always thought you were supposed to snap it to the walls.

    What do you think about a waste management mechanic in the future? Like if constructors etc. had a waste byproduct that would need to be removed from the facility. It would result in the mandatory creation of waste management sites and some additional logistics and though it is similar to a maintenance mechanic that devs have said they are avoiding, it could be tuned to avoid being a constant chore

    • @Buttersaemmel
      @Buttersaemmel Год назад

      waste/byproducts is the next difficulty spike that comes with "unlocking" the ability to utilize oil.
      with constructors you have to learn the fundamentals of an autmoated production line.
      with assemblers you have to learn the production and combination of different products (and the logistics that comes with this).
      so i actually don't think that any of those two are properly fitted to already introduce byproducts.

    • @Buttersaemmel
      @Buttersaemmel Год назад

      i always clog up my cargo because it obviously still produces while i don't use the item but that also means that there is no input drawn and with that potential input for other factories is wasted.
      and then when i need the items in question it's gone in a matter of seconds but production on it self is so slow that i have to wait an eternity.
      this game is about efficency but i tend to somehow always manage the opposide...lol

    Easy. You decide which processing step you want to be done (e.g. quartz computers), you note how man inputs and outputs you need, you take that combined number and divide it by 2, rounding up. You take that number, multiply it by 4 and you have your length for the factory in number of foundations. Then you make it 12 foundations wide. You put down the combined number of input/output as complete train stations consisting of one station and one cargo platform each. You build your factory on top of the train stations.
