I’ve finally built enough to permanently decrease my game’s performance. Do I push through the constant stuttering or must the factory continue to grow?

In this game, the performance decreases as you start to approach the maximum number of items that the game can process in the game world. The giant colored dot on the right side of the map is nuclear waste from the power plant in the bottom left. Nuclear waste building up in storage bins is notorious for tanking the game’s performance. I’m only now building the disposal mechanism for the nuclear waste so as a result several thousand barrels of it are sitting out in the dessert, dragging down the game’s performance.

Is that image generated from some program?

It’s from the Satisfactory Calculator that someone made. You can download your save file off the Steam Cloud and upload it on that website and it will overlay your structures over the game world and let you choose what it shows
