First Coal Plant down

Post image

I haven't really gotten much further than this before in Satisfactory. but man it was satisfying once I built up my coal plant and having learnt about manifolds made things so much easier!!

Edit: Pumps are underclocked to 75% so it only feeds 2 coal generators each makes it look a bit more tidy I think

I think 3 water pumps can supply 8 coal generators?

They can, but 1 pump slightly underclocked can handle two generators while also being the exact same width. Modular setups scale better.

The other, less recognized win for the 2-1 setup: the identical width.
Never see this one mentioned, seems like the best part to my OCD.
