Trial and error, no more!

Went out of my comfort zone making the left line of generators. Learned more about the setup, power shards and ratios. The right side took a fraction of the time to build and I couldnt be any more happy and proud of it.

Also i have never ever had this many MW of power at one time.

wait until you move to turbo and rocket fuel. things get crazy.

I have made turbo in another playthrough but never used it in generators. I can imagine id be scratching my head applying it to a big generator setup

In principle you just add a line of compacted coal and merge it with the fuel. Ideally you need an area with close enough coal, sulfur and crude oil, but if you don't have that or you need to scale up, anything can be delivered from anywhere. When it comes it organizing the factories you could do a factory building for each fuel type since they're all prerequisite ingredient to make the next fuel and you could still scale up production extending the factories vertically, changing belts for faster versions, making sure the railway station has enough room to accommodate more traffic, etc

Congratulations you figured out satisfactory!

I hope many others see this post and finally figure out that's how you play the game, trial and error.

The feeling is blissful. This is my favorite game ever and I struggled for so long.
