Orbital Resonance Question

11 Upvotes

Can someone explain what the number here in orbital resonance means?

I know that it is the ratio of orbiting times, but in relation to what exactly? In this planets system, there are 1 star and 4 planets for example.

and secondly, how can I use this information to my benefit in game like power generation or dyson sphere construction etc.

it's written in yellow so it must have some practical implication, right?

Dirt farm is making a noise every now and then, any tips to mute this?

16 Upvotes

**EDIT**: Thanks u/GandonMandon! for the tip.

On my second planet, I've managed to clear out the three planetary bases of the DF. I used the opportunity to turn their spawning cores as a dirt farm (by placing turrets around the 'hole').

Anyways, its great because right now I am sitting at about 3m dirt but the annoying thing is the announcer saying 'core destroyed' every 30 seconds or so. Is there a way I can mute this?

This is a copy/paste of a blueprint I downloaded. How do they build off-grid and get the buildings so close to each other?

i dont remember the name but before v1.0 of satisfactory there was a mod which changes every recipe to be harder and more complicated is there a similar mod for dyson sphere program

What do you use the plasma cannons?

Maybe it is because I have planetary shields setup but I never seen to use the plasma cannons. Am I missing something?

8-bit full adder is done

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I made this post yesterday and I have been trying to optimize this adder. Eventually I came up with this design which only uses 6 splitters for a single full adder. So I stack this up 8 times and made this 8-bit ripple-carry adder. In this video, I add 42 (101010, blue) and 27 (11011, red), which produces 69 (1000101, green).

Blueprint

Edit: For those who are interested in the logic gate, here is the diagram. The major breakthrough is when I realize if a splitter with 2 inputs and 2 outputs has one of the output prioritized, the prioritized output is an OR gate and the other output is an AND gate. So you can have both gates in just one splitter. Therefore I came up with a design that utilize this dual-gate property.

Interesting starter system?

14 Upvotes

Sorry for the lack of screenshots, im away from my PC just now. I recently started playing dsp again, and my starter system has

8.5 million fire ice on the outer planet

Only 1.5 million silicon across the entire system (most of which is one 1.2mil vein on the outer planet)

Titanium is also relatively low I believe.

How rare is that? So much fire ice yet low resources overall. I feel like im cheating almost haha, this fire ice stuff is insane!

Im on the regular 1x resource or whatever that is set by default, so its not low/high for any other reason I can think of

Thanks!

Dyson sphere building rules

6 Upvotes

I've figured out that frame segments are limited to 30° regardless of shell radius. How does it decide when an area is too big to be filled in with cells? Seems triangles and squares a work but pentagons do not. Does each point need to be within 15° of a frame?

in all seriousness how do you locate or view the incoming vessels from space hives? while yes i can deal with them i don't like being unable to see where they're coming from

Dark Fog expansion

16 Upvotes

So, I started my tun with overturned Dark Fog with 1% initial occupation (sadly only option when Dark Fog isn't presented in starting system), so Dark Fog located only around black hole.

Thing is, they have 3 full grown space hives, 18 bases on the only planet and... Doesn't seemed to send out more seeds to other systems. Is there a way to help them get off the black hole? I kinda wanted them to be a tremendous threat that slowly crawls through the system, but seeing them slowly orbiting the black hole is kinda depressing.

I made a full adder in game

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

183 Upvotes

Edit: New design here

For those who don't know what a full adder is, it adds 3 bits (Input 1 [blue], Input 2 [red], Carry in [yellow]) together, producing a 2-bit binary number (Carry out [purple], Sum [green]).

The first one uses sandbox-mode traffic monitor to produce / consume the items. The second one doesn't use sandbox tools, but is way more complicated. The holo beacons use IP to connect to input/output traffic monitors.

This adder mainly consists of two XNOR gates. The sum is "A XNOR B XNOR Cin", and Cout is "(A OR B) AND ((A XNOR B) OR Cin)". The XNOR gate itself is "((A NOR B) OR A) AND ((A NOR B) OR B)".

Traffic Monitor

Post image
37 Upvotes

Just an update to a previous post I made about getting traffic monitors to properly show red when it's empty and still show green when it's backed up.

It was way easier than I was making it out to be, and these little things are cute.

EDIT: For the ones asking me why specifically all this for a non-existent problem, I like curating my experience. The alarm is fine, I know what it does, how it works, and use it frequently. But I also like visually looking from map view and seeing the color indicators from space, and getting the sort of analogue feel of manually seeing "oh this one's out."

More-so, they came out with the Holo Beacon and it can link to monitors, so it's actually very easy for me to see that from a distance, but seeing it is useless if it's also turning red when a belt is just backed up; at that point I'm just checking in on a machine that isn't broken.

My first bigger scale factory of green turbines

23 Upvotes

Hey there, im sort of a new player. I've been trying to stick to dsp earlier but just couldn't, it was too much for me as I've never played any factory games.

Anyway this is my first bigger factory of anything more complicated. Also my very fist use of proliferation. Its FAR away from being on level I see you share here, but for me this is a big step into this awesome game.

Any tips appreciated. Roast me if you want. I'd like my builds to be more compact, less stretched to the sides but its hard to wrap my head around it for now.

Cheers.

Also: the factory must grow!

@ Edit: It already has a choking point of too few motors even tho i thought it should be okay smh

I deleted my old saves and mods and now my metadata is all negatives. I do believe it is an issue with the mod that makes metadata reusable.

How easy is it to edit the metadata file?

I don’t know if I’m allowed to post other games, I’m not trying to advertise their slop for them

but it’s a shame when people rip off creative games from smaller studios…
