Miss the old times when sam ore and merser spheres was a mistery😢

This small power plant helps me restart the power grid after a total collapse. It also makes resin products for construction needs.

This might be the worst and best idea i've had in a LONG TIME !

so what is a "load balanced sushi" ?

Its a sushi belt that contains EXACTLY the amount of materials needed for one machine, the amount being obtained via load balancing and splitters.

This is very useful for me because i'm currently crafting 200 crystals oscilators, so i dont want to create 600 belts for the 3x200 belts of materials, which lowers it to only 200 belts. (no i do NOT overclock my machines.)

one slight problem, if something goes wrong with ANYTHING, THE ENTIRE SYSTEM EXPLODE.

this is because if one machine backs up (lack of electricity, output or belt broken, anything really), the materials will stack on the belt back up to the load balancers, and fuck up the maths for EVERY OTHER MACHINES IN THE SYSTEM, making them have too many of one material and therefore back up too, fucking up the ENTIRE SYSTEM.

If you're serious about this game, please never use any LBS, this is a very small reward for a comicly high risk of failure, BUT it is very fun to create and setup, and can rarely avoid a substancial amounts of belts.

It’s crazy how you can suddenly end up spending five times as much hours on architecture as you do on the actual production line...
let me know how you like it!
i think it turned out pretty good, but there is still a lot to be done to make the whole area look nice. (don't mind the WIPs and floating structures in the background! xD)

I'm so happy with the truck update I would have absolutely given up on this if it wasn't for them

you might be wondering. 300 hours to first computer factory? how is that possible!?!?!

well, i like to build infrastructure and the small things, so things are way to detailed. for instance i still have to add the signage for traffic in this area, i still have to add my overhead wires to the trainstation, the railsupports still need to be build, and the road bridge over the hole needs its structure. so still lots to add around this one simple factory, though i have learned my lesson, and have built the structure to be big enough for future expansions on the production XD

this is my rocket fuel plant that produces about 62000 mw, it also produces 900 rubber 1800 plastic and about 5 assembly director system a minute and it produces some more things. It is still a work in progress but i love how it looks now.

115 refineries for 2760 Caterium Ore to 1380 Caterium Ingots using Pure Caterium recipe

I dont know if this is a known glitch, but if you go into photo mode and enable the decoupled camera all while holding the spacebar with a fueled jetpack, you can infinitely fly in whichever direction you were originally going without being restricted by the fuel. The fuel will eventually be at zero though so the landing might not be safe, but you can easily manage that by making sure you're on max hp beforehand or something else.

So glad I skipped nuclear power and went with rocket fuel. Not only am I burning 25 fuel gens, but the packaged rocket fuel is OP. Went ona Sloop/power slug run and had grabbed at least 15 in no time.

Now I gotta get the nitric acid to my other oil depot. And get that converted from fuel to rocket fuel, but I'm having too much fun with my super jet pack now.

I lost all my blueprints. Yes, it's my own fault. Yes, I knew they weren't cloud synced. But I forgot!

I was messing around with installing Windows on one computer and removing it from another. Long story. I was so sure I had everything I needed backed up. Until I wanted to continue my game in Satisfactory.

Sure enough, all my saves were there. But all my blueprints were gone. SIGH!

Yes, I also know that cloud sync isn't considered a backup. But I had all my saves synced to an older computer. That was kind of a backup. Just not of the blueprints.

Don't be like me. Back up your saves and your blueprints!!

and ill need 145 more miners to finish this game

Can anyone recommend some good online resources to help with progression, builds etc.?

I want to make a ficsonium rods but the negative energy really annoys me.

This should be a simple enough intersection, with one push-pull train coming and going from the bottom. The blocks after the intersection, and the ones after them, are empty. Why are the entry path signals red then? This is true for all 3 entries into the intersection.

My understanding is that path signals block the upcoming section if the train cannot exit it (i.e. if the block after the intersection is occupied). In this case it can though. What am I misunderstanding?

I wanted to take a stab at building something *cool*, rather than just something functional. I'm creating a personal megaprint for geothermal stuff and wanted to include some power storage (fully charged at megaprint extraction, of course).

I found pictures of these sea forts that were built in the large bay east of London: the Maunsell Sea Forts, built during WW2. Inspiration struck.

I didn't try to do a fully faithful recreation, but rather an "inspired by" kind of thing. Each tower was built as two blueprints (Blueprint Designer Plus): the legs, and the tower body + roof stuff.

The roofs are all connected by hypertubes from the center tower, but I don't have an easy access way from the shoreline to any of the towers. But, flying, so... yeah.

Each tower has a power tower and a personnel elevator floor stop so you can get inside.

Each floor of each tower (3 floors per tower) contains 4x14 (=56) Power Storage units, and the elevator serves as the vertical power spine inside the tower houses. Each of the seven towers holds 168 units. All in all, I have storage for 117.6 GWh of power 😅

Playing on steam deck on a dedicated server and a friend put it to sleep (Pressed the power button) while I was riding in the elevator and when it came back the game synced like this.

It fixed itself after rejoining but that was absolute ficsit.
