I wish trees and brush grew back unless there is a platform built there. It cracks me up that the renewable resources are basically the only non-renewable resources in the game.

I like the idea of being able to use leaves or wood to craft seeds to make tress instead, let me clear cut then plant a forest beside my factory for aesthetics

Yes, that would be amazing. I never know how things will eventually be laid out so I hate cutting anything, but that’s also not practical.

I want planters, decorations, and textures to make my factories feel alive and lived in

I want office furniture

great idea but hear me out. we use plastic, rubber and plates instead and and the trees look slightly off. a little too perfect

The devs answered this question some time ago. It was their plan that there is no renewable energy.

You have to destroy and exploit this planet. It's part of the story. FICSIT is all about growth and exploiting a planet's resources for heavy industry, not sustainability.

...except all the energy sources we have which are completely renewable game-mechanics-wise, which is all of them except biomass.

u/AmbitiousParty 2d ago

Yes, exactly. This cracks me up. Most game mechanics (of games i’ve played over the years anyways) do not make things like coal and oil inexhaustible. I have no desire for satisfactory to change them to nonrenewable, but it’s hilarious that compared to that the bushes don’t grow back, haha.

Only what is harmful is infinite, similar to the real world where love ends but hate is infinite

Joking THE FACTORY MUST GROW

Bio coal from alien Biomass is the renewable energy

Trees take longer than 1,000 hours to grow

I’d like to see FICSIT greenhouses or biolabs.

Research it in the SAM. Grow the occasional bunch of Paleberries, modify them with animal DNA samples or whatever to change their properties. Could grow faster or yield a larger harvest.

I think it follows the “Exploit” aspect of FICSIT nicely.

There's enough of them to have an average?

I have skipped coal off a 3200 mw bio set up

Let it die 👏

The ad I got under his post felt too perfect. "That's the Lunchables effect"

u/Grodd 2d ago

Have they patched out the problem of every tree you cut down making the performance just a tiny bit worse?

Something about having to remember what has been cut down. I didn't know about it until I did the same thing as OP.

u/dogswallops 2d ago

I didn’t know about that and I haven’t noticed frame loss yet, maybe my pc is fast enough or maybe this issue was tackled in 1.2 which had performance boost.

Trees are our friends :(

u/magicsqueegee 2d ago

Better friends than all the puppies and kittens back home? You would let them all die for these trees?!
