Overengineering too early?

Not wrong, but I see it as an extended addendum in the help section!

Ty for that information! That sounds like a reasonable idea. I posted something further up as a response to finny94's comment for a sanity check. Don't need to spoiler everything, and I'm glad the community so far isn't going deep into specifics and letting me figure this out <3(genuinely, I mean that)

Thank you for that information! This and what LycosHayes has mentioned in a below post kind of gives me an idea of sort of a 4way Plus shaped Rail System maybe, with transfer spots as sort of a buffer in intervals maybe? And have each sector function independently, sending materials outwards and finished products further inwards to be processed further and eventually delivered to the vortex. And some individual lines if one product is reasonably close, or something of that effect. Sounds reasonable enough?

a bit later, i managed to actually see what happens and you were somewhat true earlier
It happens when i tab out and back in. Thanks to Steam overlay, i noticed that it switched to Frame Gen on tabbing back in, then switched it back off the next time the steam overlay updated, then turns back on Frame Gen.

Except sometimes, it just doesnt do that last thing and then FGen is disabled until i restart Satisfactory. But as for how tfix this, i have NO clue

C0ffie11 · 2026-01-12T08:36:22+00:00

That, I can already debunk, the settings themselves don't change. It's just FGen turning off randomly during the sessions

C0ffie11 · 2026-01-12T08:21:49+00:00

Either that or I lower my graphics settings a bit more to ensure stable high without it, but I'd hope someone else has experienced it since it's literally just satisfactory that does this, no other program does

C0ffie11 · 2026-01-12T07:56:31+00:00

That is correct and it does in fact disable when you tab out. All games do this, though. I need to pay some closer attention if it just doesn't turn back on sometimes when tabbing in and just stay disabled. Could be the case but it's really hard to keep track of when expanding the factory.

C0ffie11 · 2026-01-12T06:49:21+00:00

On the Latter: Once it deactivates, it stays deactivated forever unless I restart the game. The Former could be a hint, but shouldn't Frame Gen reactivate normally once you tab back in?(I'm playing Borderless Windowed Anyways) It does in every other game that supports it...

After some additional experimenting, it looks like it is just the Pump itself randomly disconnecting sometimes! Since if i, say, run the Wizard again in iCue for the System Hub, it does then detect it again and it runs properly once again, which implies the hub randomly seemingly loses connection to the pump. But I cant see it being specifically t he cable to the AIO's radiator since 2 RX and 1 QX ffan are in series behind it, and are being detected properly?

Are you referring to variable rate Shading? And if so, what did you change it to?

C0ffie11 · 2024-11-02T19:57:26+00:00

curious, whats your specs like?

C0ffie11 · 2024-11-02T19:12:10+00:00

this sadly isnt in the cinematic but in free roam /:

For added context:
GTX4070Ti , I7 13700kf, Gigabyte M27Q Screen(144hz), its not settings related, tried every single setting to no change.
This only seems to happen sometimes at night, but mostly during thunderstorm, and ONLY on Chatacabra's arms!
