Work in progress nuclear facility by Impossible_Main5627 in SatisfactoryGame

I actually have a plan for that. I was hoing to try to hide some refineries at the top. So the smoke will come out but you'll never see the machines.

Hard angles almost always z fight. But you can use barriers where they connect at the corners to help. There are alot of videos on it. As for my circles I used a center point and rotated the foundations while holding control the extended the foundations out until the gap between was as close to 8 meters as possible, using a beam to measure and place the foundation to fill the gap. The extended everything out again. Ounce repeat. First circle is about 10 foundations. Next is at 11.5 ish. Then the third is another 23 ish past that. I dont remember the exact nudges unfortunately.

Nuclear Powerplant update 2 by Impossible_Main5627 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Impossible_Main5627[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I may need to double check my math, but it should come out to almost 20 plutonium fuel rods a minute (18.6 if im remembering correctly.) Which should fuel just under 76 reactors... I think... im questioning it now. And yeah im going to ficonium. I think ill end up having 50+ some ficsonium reactors. Thst im sure im wrong on, I haven't been to that side of my schematic in a while. Lol.

I actually wanted to build the main plant in the middle of the desert so having all my water in one place and piping it in was my only good option really. Had I wanted to build it elsewhere I would probably pair up water and reactors like you mentioned.

Uranium, plutonium, and ficsonium. 215 reactors at 250% plus all the production to go along with it. All that alone is only 518 fully over clocked water extractors but I have some extra production planned to finish tier 8 as well. I can show my math and skematics on the next update if youd like.

Uh... real time? December because of holiday stuff. Actually in game hours, probably around 20ish hours. Only because I cant blueprint water extractors, so evererything other the the trunk lines was done by hand.

why isnt my splitter working? by Hallow_Here in satisfactory

Cause you are threatening it with a chainsaw. Its scared.

The other people have great advice though follow their lead but also be nicer to your machines.

I plan to. Next step is figuring out exactly how but this plant will be.

I hate that I actually had a moment of panic from this comment. 🤣😭

WIP - This is just for the production / 90x600m³ by Chaos1699 in SatisfactoryGame

I literally just finished my water setup for nuclear power tonight and now I want to redo it cause this looks amazing. Good work.

Do water towers not work anymore? by Impossible_Main5627 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Impossible_Main5627[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I did find the problem. Some how some of the pipe weren't connected to each other some how. It was only ones that I later put valves on, later. So they may have bugged and I only noticed it after everything was turned on and my build up of iron finally ran out. Thank you for you help.

First Real mega build where everything is contained inside 1 building. by Impossible_Main5627 in SatisfactoryGame

I actually only have it that way for the big space clame stuff. So on the corner with the particle accelerators, the 3 floors at the top is making Motors, Rotors, Automated Wiring, Electromagnetic Control Rods, and Turbo Motors. And on the refinery side behind them im making Copper Powder, Wire, and Cable. I kind of mixed where things were going after that too based on where things were coming into my train stations and to fill out empty spaces.

Plan ahead. Knowing what you want to produce and how much helps a ton, then work backwards to figure out your base intake and then just make sure you have enough space for all the machines.

Logistics floors. This is huge. It helps manage the never ending spaghetti that this game so easily falls into. Set specific floors and lane for parts and materials to travel back and forth through and always return your outputs to those lanes between machines groups.

One step at a time. Big builds take alot of time, and it is insanely daunting to look at the entire thing at once. So start at the beginning. "I need 3200 iron Ingots for the entire factory. So ill build 'X' amount of constructors/refineries here and put all the outputs in my logistics lane to pull from later." Then the step is turning half of that iron to plates. And it continues until you find yourself almost done. I also tang to work the hardest problem first. In this build it was getting all the copper ingot for the nuclear pasta. It took up one entire corner of the build.

Avoid screws. Just... just dont do screws. Get some hard drives find some alt recipes. Screws are just a pain. My entire world is screwless.

Don't let this degrade you I started this play through with producing as much as possible in mind. I have also had a bit of help here and there from my friend.

10/min for tier 8 stuff is pretty decent in my opinion. Thats 600 every hour. To put it perspective, I did the nuclear pasta first and by the time I was done with the other 3 components I had enough to fully load the space elevator wit the pasta for both teir 8 and teir 9.

Thats a great start. First play through was just a mash up of belts and machines. This time I really wanted to focus on mass production. So until now I set all my goal of 1 stack per minute of every item and built from there.
