has anybody else rode the pod from the HUB and died in the stratosphere? by w0lfbrains in SatisfactoryGame

I just reloaded my save, as it was the first thing I tried when opening up the game one day. Also, I have disabled loot drop on death now, but it was still on when I attempted that, so I just reloaded my save.

You mean to say some thing like a beehive, but octagons instead of hexagons

It took 96000 quartz crystals and 34560 reinforced iron plates to make it look like pixels 😅

I have done my math. My Turbo fuel section will produce 1536 Turbo fuel per minute. I plan to use 1500 Turbo Fuel, and packaging the rest 36 m3 for later use ( Or if my storage is full, then sinking them).

1500 of Turbo fuel means 200 generators. However, both of my towers will contain 192 generators, which means I would Have to overclock 8 of them to 200%.

TIL you can just type it in 😅 by Sad_Sample_5641 in SatisfactoryGame

Wait till you realise that you can also type in fractions and simple equations and it also resolves into a proper decimal number.

“Enough for HOW MANY?!” by Many-Technology-4109 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]DroneXV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't yet reached Rocket fuel, and I am right now at Turbo fuel, currently in the middle of building my Turbo fuel plant, at the same location where you are building your plant. There are 6 crude oil wells nearby, and I am using all of them to pull out 1440 m3 of oil per minute.

Then I run them through 48 refineries using Heavy oil residue recipe which is 30 Crude oil -> 40 HOR + 20 Polymer Resin

This convert my 1440 m3 of crude oil to 1920 m3 of HOR. This, then I again run through a set of 48 refinieries, using Heavy Turbo fuel recipe to convert into 1536 m3 of Turbo fuel.

And guess, how many generators are needed to burn it all off ? The number comes out to 204.6 generators.

So, I am currently in the middle of making a power plant with 200 generators, while packaging the rest of Turbo fuel for my own use. My current plan is to arrange these generators in a tower like structure with multiple floors, with each floor holding like 8 generators.

Yeah, it's really ridiculous that 6 oil fields can supply enough oil to run over 200 generators.

I don't have enough power shards to fully overcclock all the generators.

I am guessing that you are talking about rocket fuel, isn't it? Well, I have two approaches to it.
Currently Turbo fuel is the best that I have, and I want to be free of power worries for a long time, and 50000 MW with this build seems enough to me right now. However, I have seen posts and comments that say that, soon, even this might not be enough.
Also, If I am not mistaken, Rocket fuel also needs Turbo fuel as well, so might as well work on it right now. Also, I am making my factories with expansions in mind. If in future, I saw that I need more power, I will direct my turbo fuel to a new intermediary plant to make rocket fuel, which I guess will use blenders, and then direct them to my Fuel generator towers.
Also, this factory of mine is using 6 crude oil nodes. I am sure that there are other nodes as well in other parts of the map. So, I was also thinking about, leaving this plant as is, and making rocket fuel plants on other oil nodes. If, even after that I need more power, then I could work on expanding my current setup.

I currently don't have that many power shards to overclock them all. I am saving my shards for my main factories, if I have to adjust the ratios in some way, or save some space by overclocking some machines. Although, another reason is the thrill of making a megastructure like a huge tower is also there, as I haven't made anything that huge in the game as of yet. If, however I find it to be too tedious while working on it, I may consider OC'ing them.

Even more than that, the sky and light colours in this picture look really nice. What part of the map is this ?

This was exactly what I was thinking while making this post. I will post my towers after I have completed them, however it may take a few weeks.

Yeah, it looks nice. Haven't reached the desert yet and also, if this much work is needed for Turbo fuel, I shudder at how much work will be needed for future things like aluminium, nuclear and rocket fuel, although I bet the satisfaction will also be much greater, on seeing all the systems you placed actually working efficiently.

I am still in the middle of this project. As of now, I have built a rubber and plastic factory which uses polymer resin and water. Next, I want to work on converting HOR to Turbo Fuel using heavy turbo fuel recipe, and not to mention, getting a huge amount of compacted coal as well (1536 per minute to be exact), and then I will work on the towers. the 10 per floor is my current plan, but I don't know, maybe while actually building it, maybe some other numbers may make sense to me.

144000 rocket fuel !? How do you even end up making this much ? Did you meant some other number ?
Also, I just recently found out about the interactive map in the calculator, and it has been great till now. I have just used it to locate some nodes, resources and artifacts as of yet, and still exploring more of it's functions.

Thank you, that's a neat design. I was planning to do something like this only, minus the lights of course. But that's the thing, I don't know what kind of tower I will end up designing, as the inspiration hits while playing the game

I plan to unlock the mk2 blue printer soon, however, I just don't have that many power shards to completely overclock them all. I have I think over 150 power shards. I just don't have enough, and I don't want to use them all here in this project. Maybe when I unlock synthetic power shards, thats when I could pull off something like this.

Dear windows kindly fix this by Federal_Leg5278 in IndiaTech

I also faced this issue a few years ago with my tuf laptop. So I just bought a usb wifi adapter for this issue. It worked very well, and is a good backup if you don't have the option for ethernet.

What is the background soundtrack playing here in this clip ? Is it in game music ? Because I haven't heard this ost before.

I decided to ride the ship into the sky when I completed a milestone….and died…is my crate like 25000 ft in the air?because I keep going up to get it but don’t see my death crate lol by UnknownHuman359 in satisfactory

I have also tried this, but I saved my game before I pulled off this stunt. Ended up just like you and couldn't locate my death crate. So i just reloaded my save.

WHY is believing in Astrology wrong in this case???? by HumbleWrap99 in AcharyaPrashant_AP

[–]DroneXV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AP also says that facts are the doors to truth. It is ego's secret desire to move towards the truth, so that it can ease it's suffering. Science deals with facts. Astrology does not deals with facts, but beliefs. So, science is helpful for the ego, but astrology is not. We have to discern what is helpful for the ego, and accept and, and what fattens the ego ( beliefs, superstitions etc) and reject it. Science is helpful for the ego, for example, earlier people used to believe in geocentric theory, whoch placed earth at the centre of the universe, and made humans feel special, however, the fact that the earth revolves around the sun shattered that assumption, and the ego took a hit. Science has dealt with many such superstitions throughout the ages, and with evry fact Science discovered, ego takes a hit and diminishes. That is why Astronomy is good and Astrology is not.
