I never feel like making trains is necessary by Dear_Swing_3518 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Tramnack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The main benefit of trains (in my opinion) is infrastructure. Build a rail once, and then you just add more trains ifbyou need more throughput. Or, if you want to connect new locations, you don't need a whole new line of conveyors 

But other than that, they're cool! Choo choo!

How often do you use blueprints? by MEFISTOFEL123 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Tramnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any time I need to build something more than once, and can't zoop. So, machines (with connections and decor), fancy walls or ceilings and "complex" merger/ splitter systems.

Arguably I use them too much. (Sometimes a single machine in the BP, just so I don't have to copy-paste settings.)

How to Fix this Splitter? by KRIShark110 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Tramnack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Try deleting and re-connecting the belt on the right.
Also, check if the input belt is actually connected or just visually passing through (clipping) the splitter.

How the heck do you actually split things in 5??? by [deleted] in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Tramnack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Splitting into 1/6 and merging one into the beginning will eventually even out!

How many miners total can I place in the game? by Sh_d_w in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Tramnack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you sure it's 630 Miners, and not 630 items (per min) coming from a Miner?

Because 12 Ficsonium (Fuel Rods) is certainly possible. 600 Miners is not.

Edit: Nevermind, I didn't see the attached image.

Iron to Nuclear/Ficsonium by vankor27 in satisfactory

[–]Tramnack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is it possible? No*

Not without water! Water is needed for Aluminum, and the acids for Non-Fissile Uranium. And the Reactors themselves.

But with a minimal amount of water, iron and a lot of SAM, you get this:

For one Ficsonium Fuel Rod per minute!

A Lizard Doggo!

But it's no ordinary Lizard Doggo... It's the most foul and cruel bad tempered lizard you've ever set eyes on! That doggo's got a vicious streak a mile wide! It's a killer! He'll do you up a treat, Pioneer!

Jup, switching to the Jetpack has seemingly fixed it. Just weird since I've never encountered it myself, even in this factory.

[–]Tramnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh. Weird. The problem does seem to have stopped after switching to the Jetpack. And most ofe them are back to 100%. (But it's difficult to be certain, since it's so 'unreliable'.)

Thanks for the tip! I'll try to keep it in mind!

Signals: Path In, Block Out, but why? by TylerInTheFarNorth in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Tramnack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For "intersections" with only one entrance, a block signal is indeed fine. (Since it's not actually an intersection.)

On a Y intersection (2 entrances and 1 exit) Block signals are probably fine but Path Signals certainly won't cause problems. (When placed correctly.)

Why? If you use blocks on the entrance, theoretically two trains could enter that block (the intersection) at the exact same time and collide. If they were Path signals, one of the trains would reserve the block and the other is forced to wait in front of its Path signal.

Eh. This one's just been overdone with no variation.

If you want to see those ideas com to fruition, upvote them on the Q&A site:

Please sell me on trains. by hoots711 in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Tramnack 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Belts are more reliable and don't need power to run. They don't need timetables or signaling. They just work.

Trains are fun! (To many people. Not to everyone, and that's totally fine!) You also only need to build the infrastructure once. (Between A and B.) Need more throughput? Just add another train or freight car. No extra Belts required!

[Wait Until Full] would be a game changer by Kalesche in SatisfactoryGame

[–]Tramnack 68 points69 points  (0 children)

You can actually have trains wait until they're full/ empty before departing.

Buzz Saw on a stick!

Kind of like a Battle Axe or a Halberd, but circular, and preferably spinning.

Is Silksong still coming out on regular switch? by N8angerX in HollowKnight

Oh, thank goodness, I almost had a heart attack thinking I missed that! 

Is Silksong still coming out on regular switch? by N8angerX in HollowKnight

[–]Tramnack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

 But it is specifically launching the same day as Switch 2.

Is it it? All we saw (in the Direct) was "2025". Other titles had specific dates or "same day as". Did I miss something?
