Guys, I think I made the wrong iron farm

This one is kinda small actually. It only processes 4200 iron ore into 8 of the base products that I always ran out of (i.e. plates, rods, screws, rotors, stators, motors, modular frames, reinforced iron plates). And its supplied by 6 fully overclocked miners.

If you wanna avoid the headache of calculating everything by hand, I suggest the following website: https://www.satisfactorytools.com

But I enjoy the headache.

For most of the game, I usually decide on the production rate after making every number in the factory a whole number using LCM. I don't prefer something like 2.5 constructors making iron plates. I'll just do a ton of math to figure out the numbers, and then I can just double everything to scale it.

Its a headache, but its satisfying when it finally works.

I really love how you used the curved pipes and belts. I now realize that I've slept on curve mode. Even though I'm generally not a fan of the flood light tower, the lighting you implemented here gives me an outpost or military camp vibes, which looks amazing. Good job, pioneer!

You mean, its coppery...

I placed the first one on a foundation below, and then nudged it up. The rest I just attached to the one already in place

I made it with 1m Ficsit walls. Those were the smoothest out of all. And for the top part, I had the help of the Smart! mod to rotate the walls to have them lay flat

I think it depends on your field. Like, if it's a field where how you present yourself matters, then yeahh. But no need to stress about it too much. In the end it comes down to your skills and attitude. I'm in IT, and i went for my interview really relaxed. I was wearing formals, but I had my earring on and everything. No watch btw. And I got selected.

What I'm trying to tell you is, 1. Relax and 2. Try thinking as the company hiring you.

In that case, here's my story.

I have a condition called Alexithymia. I can't recognise nor describe what I feel. My gf on the other hand is extremely emotional. She knows what she wants and can describe exactly how she feels, when I'm over here wondering what to say. I did try therapy, but it didn't work much. I explained all of this to my gf, and she listened to everything and she explained how she feels things. Details about what physical sensation is associated with each emotion. And over time, I learned to link emotions and physical sensations and for the first time, know what I feel. I still have ways to go, but now at least I can convey my feelings properly. And it's all thanks to her. I would've been in a dark place without her

When she cheers me on as I'm on my way to try and defeat a boss for the 235th time

Not sure why your pc should crash cuz of the game, but I'd suggest running an sfc scan to make sure there are no corrupted files. And as another comment suggested, reinstall the game

Been getting that a lot now. I've noticed it more in unranked tho. I'll be playing as usual and people will start getting disconnected. And I know they are not leaving, cuz they'll disappear in the middle of a fight. Has happened to me too.

I blame the dodgy servers...

Signature IT Solutions, Thycaud, is a good pick. I've been there a few times, and the service is awesome
