The parachute is awesome, it also makes the hypercannon viable very early on. You can get a great overview and basically travel the whole map (not very quickly though)
i remember when i started satisfactory i did my factories by paper, but i never knew about manifolds or prime array splitters. i had a nightmare designing my very first iron factory 😭
@s7f_ulti799 Manifolds are so great IMO because if you start up your factory in steps as you build it, the manifolds can "warm up" before you flip the final switch.
@sebastiaanv2 I would've included that if i had managed to get it to work in my testing. How do you do it? I've tried typing in fractions, but it just doesn't seem to take.
@kuboskube thats weird, i use it all the time, mostly because it is an easy way to scale based on the amount of machines i need vs the amount i actually build. So let's say I need 20 and I build 14 because of a design or something I just put in 20/14*100 and hit enter, that would make the percentage 142,85 then just copy paste to the other machines
@sebastiaanv2 OOHHH. Multiply by 100! All of my fractions come out to 1%. I assumed the calculator was contextually smart enough for that. Good to know! I'm trying this first thing when I make my next factory!
I have played for 200 hours. Today I learn you can hold left click on the nobelisk detonator to throw further.

The percentage field in machines also allows calculations btw
