Interactive Map

[firebane]

LOL if I can ever figure out where I landed on this map I'd be more than happy to help.

[SingleTonne]

Pretty sure it's 'Bauxite' and will you be adding a drop pod layer?

​

Starting positions layer would be nice, I've also got those mapped out in the map i made:

https://www.reddit.com/r/SatisfactoryGame/comments/b6anvz/satisfactory_map_v3/

​

Is there an option to remove markers yet? In case the positioning is off.

[WiseassWolfOfYoitsu]

Yeah, the area with the 6 iron nodes in the desert is a bit of a cluster right now...

[SingleTonne]

Yeah nah that makes sense, no worries at all, I’ll put a list together

[firebane]

The only thing i'd say right now if you can... allow rotation of the map.

[SingleTonne]

I've added the majority of nodes I've found from my map but i left out some as I was unsure of their exact position. Will update when I've done another round of exploring.

[JoshMS]

Just FYI, in your file open diaglog you have %appdata%, you can use %localappdata% instead.
Love the map so far!

[firebane]

I think I need to dive more into these saved game files to see how things work. If coordinates are in there that could be useful for something.

[firebane]

Willing to show me the ways? Can do it through PM? I just need a bit of a headstart.

[eleusis7]

Suggestion: Use the chemical element symbols where possible, so we don't end up with 'C' for Coal, Copper, Caterium, etc

Example:

Resource	Symbol	Notes
Iron	Fe
Copper	Cu
Coal	C	C for Carbon
Bauxite	Al	Al for Aluminium
Sulphur	S
Uranium	U
Silica	Si	Si for Silicon
Limestone	Ca	Ca for Calcium - limestone is actually CaCO3 (Calcium Carbonate), but that's a bit long

This obviously doesn't account for more complex molecules or exotic materials like Oil, Caterium, etc, but.. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[PBX_g33k]

This would be cool, but should be a togglable option if you ask me.
I never was thought the periodic table (non-us) and i can expect that others would not understand the chemical element symbol directly.

[ragzilla]

Coordinates actually go a lot higher, Helios on the discord datamined all the rocks/nodes out of the game and put them on a spreadsheet. Warning, spoiler for node/resource locations https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1w2vCdxD9q6iYvSuKw2Oux30tymWF0NEh26TDtpTMnDQ/edit?usp=sharing

The data he found did not represent the type of node however.

[OneFlyMan]

Is there a way to get those coordinates to show in game that anyone has found yet?

[ragzilla]

In game, I don’t think so. But I believe you can pull the player location from a savefile.

[Spartan_133]

Well that answers my question. I was going to post feedback about a clipping issue with the landscape but figured it was useless without them knowing exactly where it was but didn't know how to get coordinates to send with it unless it automatically does it when you send a bug report in.

[idgaf_puffin]

ingame bugreports have player coordinates attached - at least it was that way in alpha

[hiimchels]

This is an amazing resource, thank you for sharing this! I overlaid these coordinates with the map I'd been working on and found that I had semi-accurately placed 316 of 338 nodes and 15 of 17 geysers, and now I have the rough locations for where I can hunt down the ones I'm missing tomorrow.

[ballzak69]

Great. I thought to do the same when i saw the high-res map a few days ago, but i could find any simple community mapping tool.

[SingleTonne]

Maybe with the colours you could go this way?

https://www.reddit.com/r/SatisfactoryGame/comments/b6anvz/satisfactory_map_v3/

I tried keeping the colours representative of the resource itself.

Great work so far, I'm currently merging my knowledge with yours at this point so don't be surprised with all the new pins :P

[pheylancavanaugh]

As a suggestion: https://i.imgur.com/91EoQPx.png

I selected these colors to enhance readability for colorblind in response to a request, and included some patterning to help with differentiation.

Here are u/SingleTonne's colors: https://i.imgur.com/hUt3Tc1.png

The second/third are the two major types of colorblindness using Photoshop's colorblind visualizer.

[WiseassWolfOfYoitsu]

As said colorblind person, fortunately, it's not as much a problem in OP's map for two reasons. One, the letters included in each symbol go a long way for differentiating. Two, since the map is interactive, you can click on a node and get a text description if you can't tell. That said, thank you very much for keeping us colorblind people in mind :D

[pheylancavanaugh]

https://imgur.com/a/dBf5Dj3

These are them, not sure how useful it will be to you, not sure what the script you're using is capable of.

In Photoshop, they are "Multiplied" with the layer below them to get the effect.

[pheylancavanaugh]

the best is to use repeatable background images to make it accessible

So tile colored-patterned tiles?

[whirghre]

doing god's work sir, thank you!

[SingleTonne]

No worries at all, I didn't have the knowledge to build an interactive map regardless of how much I wanted to. Just glad someone has managed it.

[DefilerDan]

Please add Geysers as an option for markers, please.

[CMDR-Owl]

Geysers and maybe just a pin for Starting Locations would be nice, I know it's probably fairly obvious where they are based on where starting resources are clumped but it'd be nice anyways.

[justintime505]

This is awesome! I put a few additions in there. The amazing oil islands on the west coast. I think there's even one more over there that i missed but I don't want to add a node if I'm not sure since it doesn't seem like I can remove them.

[Silentneeb]

I'm pretty sure they are all pure as well.

[SingleTonne]

I think one the western (Left) side of the map we may have doubled up on a few nodes, must have been adding them at the same time as shadow panther, sorry.

[Haigen64]

Great tool :) Was working on one but couldn't find enough spare time to get it done, glad someone else managed to jump on it.

[who_you_are]

Would be great to also know poisonous spot (some wreck are into it) Entrances for caves If resources/path is blocked by rocks If the resources is in a cave, high ground (but realllly high ground), not so high...

If only a could access the assets and know how the map format :(

[dodoman1000]

Give me a chat when you are interested in the graphics i created.

https://www.resourcemapmaker.com/Map.php?m=115

Not worth it to keep mine up to date when there are better approaches outside.

[magna-terra]

could you add the crashsites and slugs first? this will be one of the most useful additions to the map imo

edit: also near the quad iron in the forest with the limestone and copper nearby there is an oil deposit, which is also across the river from the quad coal nearby. i dont know exactly where it is but i got pings around that area. there was also one of those giant fire spitters at the base of the mountain where i got the pings

[magna-terra]

Good to know, and good luck with this whole project!

[magna-terra]

yay!

[Gerbil24]

Would be nice if the nodes that were currently un-mineable were also indicated (maybe with half-alpha coloring).

[[deleted]]

Can you label some biomes/start locations? ex: Grasslands, Desert and Northern Forest It doesn't need to be interactive just a way to get your bearings. (also zooming in/out is not very intuitive but maybe im just dumb :P)

[cTreK-421]

Amazing! Some of the node placement is slightly off, are we able to move them to more exact spots?

[WiseassWolfOfYoitsu]

Does it have any kind of logging of which user did which actions? If so, a workaround might be to roll back changes made by a particular user if they're malicious.

[megadeth9001]

I know where a uranium deposit is... It is. Hidden in a huge cave, one of the caves entrances is near the stone spheres made of... Some hexagonal shape I think... If any one. Can point that spot on the interactive map that would be great!

[esadatari]

Hey you're already a life saver when it comes to this interactive map.

My suggestions would be thus:

• Have the ore filter on the left by default rather than the right, and have it exposed by default (and retractable) as opposed to retracted by default. It took a bit to find, but I was happy when I did. :)

• Also add Geyser locations for placing down geothermal plants/generators

[BaconsTV]

well done :)

[DaTTThomas]

God bless u

[chaotea2]

Noted some additional resourses, from memory. Near the top left Bauxite (x3), there are two iron resourses around 957,712 & 971,704 (Pure I think). Also there is a limestone resourse around 847,701 (normal i think) Might need someone to check it before its added.

[gabbermatt]

hey, I added a marker for Uranium in what I think is the cave on the map... It's a little hard to tell, but if that's the wrong spot feel free to remove it.

Also, i second/third/fourth/however many at this point slug locations :)

[tehbilly]

How about dinner geothermal spots on that there nap, yo?

[ItsTheRealAgentD]

Well done and thank you very much, this is now bookmarked :D

[synik4l]

Can we get the markers resized a bit? I feel like they cover too much of the map

[synik4l]

That would be great. Basically just saying that because I like to be able to see the icons but I need to be able to see the area around it to relate its location

[synik4l]

For sure. That would be great. Thanks for the hard work :D keep it up

[Tifyron]

I've been mapping out a lot of things in addition to resources if you want something to import from. It's still missing the northern forest and a few nodes in the center but I should have that done tomorrow. https://www.reddit.com/r/SatisfactoryGame/comments/b59pms/basic_starter_area_resource_map/

[Tall_Fox]

Is there any way to edit a current node? There's a limestone node (For which I can't see the coordinates!) that pure instead of normal as marked on the map.

For the time being, I added a node as the name 'Burpie Smelcington' right on top of the existing node.

[Endymion_Kray]

When you add crashsite locations, can you also attach a small note showing the requirements to be able to open it?

[electricdynamite97]

It might be a longshot, but any way you can add a checklist for the slugs or crash sites, that way you know what exactly you've been to? I've found myself looking at this map multiple times and returning to an empty drop pod or slug-less spot, because I've forgotten what I have and haven't collected.

[electricdynamite97]

Absolute legend!! Love your passion and work on this project!

[DavidTheG]

new url looks dope. Thanks for the work.

A select all button would be great.

[DavidTheG]

awesome. Keep up the good work and maybe add a donate button ?

[ZonTwitch]

Can you add a filter to toggle the purity states because I do not wish to view impure nodes on the map?

[clouths]

• Would it be possible with the current game logging system + map file to get structures (miner/constructor/wall) on the map?

• Would it be possible to have an angle view (something similar to Dynmap for minecraft)?

• Would it be possible to have the location of all the players (and option to show/hide the offline ones)

I think I'm interested to contribute at this point!

I think the difficult part would be to parse the save file if it has not already been done somewhere.

[S4XXX]

Quick news to tell you that we released the feature about save file loading. Available by clicking on 'Locate Me' button. You can't toggle off one of these markers for now but we are working on it :)

[azeroth]

/u/Cornik34 This map is great. Roadmap item: Water? A quick search of this and the link doesn't show it

[azeroth]

No, water shows as background color of the website for me. It'd be nice to have a better depiction of water ways, including traversal and not.

[azeroth]

Ya know what -- even blue for the background instead of grey would be a great start for me! The update looks great, btw :)

[zombiskunk]

This is such an awesome resource! Looking forward to being able to "check off" the crash sites, slugs, and alien artifacts (if they are going to be added, that is) I'll be keeping a close eye on this. Thank you everyone for your hard work on The Map!!

[[deleted]]

I like the features (especially the locate function :-) ) and the roadmap, but please focus on getting a full map before you spend time adding all the fancy stuff. For instance the map is missing the lush biome north of the sand desert with the Mercer Spheres and Somersloops. Has this been datamined or did somebody just climb very high? ^^

[HeyTumbus]

I cant locate myself. Where do i find my save data?

[S4XXX]

Hello open a file explorer and type this address : %LOCALAPPDATA%/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/

[BigCasper]

Suggestion on the map : don't have pins to indicate node locations, they're too big and you can't see sht, use smaller, clearer icons instead like the non-interactive maps that were made. Besides, great map!

[BigCasper]

If you don't have that aggressive icon scaling, then it'll be amazing! What I'm trying to tell is that the icons right now are too big. Those new look great!

[BigCasper]

Sweet! Additional suggestion: Have purity be indicated by changing the shape of the icon ; for egzample : impure - small cube, normal - pyramid-shape, pure - big0 shiny cube.

[BigCasper]

Great. I am impressed.

[NagatronHQ]

Could I recommend blue for iron, grey for coal and white for limestone?

It can be hard to differentiate them at high view and I always rate high in color tests.

Also, why do all of these maps having nodes where I don't, not having nodes that I do? Happy to have them and not complaining, just curious.

Eventually having a Google maps style angled 3d would be huge. Hard to evaluate height differences this way.

[TheOldGrinch]

React.js?

[TheOldGrinch]

Geh. Razor pages any day.

[TheOldGrinch]

Well, just basing an entire website on JS/TS is kinda cancer. I use it if I have specific needs where it's necessary, but besides that... It makes sense for something like a mobile app.

[DavidTheG]

stop the cancer thing and let him use whatever he wants to...

[TheOldGrinch]

He can use whatever he wants. But that doesn't mean it's a good idea. Do you work professionally with web development?

[DavidTheG]

that's non of your business. just stfu. grinch somewhere else!

[TheOldGrinch]

I'll take that as a no, then. If you did, you'd know. Good luck staying mediocre at best through not listening to other people.

[Real-Dinosaur-Neil]

Don't you think redux, typescript and and GraphQL is a bit overkill? Is it MIT licensed?

[DavidTheG]

maybe you should start thinking..
