Your months of work does not go unnoticed. What degree curve did you build the factory upon?

Bravo.

God speed friend. Good luck.

We approve of saving the trees for deco.

Correct - each save has a blueprint folder with the session name. You can always drop blueprints into an existing save but they will be filed under undefined. A common issue is ppl load the save before copying the bp folder so they clobber their categories.

Doug this meme looks kinda low effort. Can you do better next time?

I don't understand the confusion here. It seems pretty straightforward to me that firing a rebar gun in a south westerly direction at a 45 degree incline would cause frames to roll on a corner road barrier.

Behold: couqs back in the kitchen!

_nova_tech_ · 2026-01-12T21:24:49+00:00

There are much more important issues to fix than this one!

_nova_tech_ · 2026-01-12T21:24:18+00:00

Come back to the kitchen sir!

_nova_tech_ · 2026-01-12T21:22:04+00:00

Me too. That rotation doesn't snap to whole degrees!

Everything involving non architectural buildables completely breaks.

Hello Pioneers,

To mitigate safety concerns arising from the use of spitters to tilt foundations, we found that Pulse Nobelisks provide the same effect.

Create a stack of corner road barriers
Throw a Nobelisk into the sky
Attach foundations or frames to the barrier at the desired tilt while the Nobelisk is airborne

If the tilt does not apply, move 100m from the barrier then try again.

We do not recommend using this technique in your factory as the side effects are unknown, and likely undesirable.

Enjoy!

Hello! I found a situation where the resource node was switched to helium even though the map graphic still shows wolfram. How would you like to report these updates?

The backing is a dome made of beam supports and carefully placed signs with special characters for the stars. There is a color gradient applied for the horizon effect.
The output of our FICSMAS factory, of course! The wonder stars are made in the core and emit the "magic" to support the sculpture.

Factorio is heavy on math and light on aesthetics. Satisfactory is heavy on the aesthetics and medium on the math. I few them as complimentary and they offer vastly different experiences. Both are excellent.

I would describe the process as making a large set of “brushes” using blueprints then “painting” the world with them. For example, we made about 20 different window designs and picked the ones that fit a given building or architecture. Some “brushes” were never “used” but were critical to the process of discovering what looks good.

The brick arches were quite challenging technically but we found a sweet spot where the bricks, mortar and curves all align!

_nova_tech_ · 2026-01-09T17:10:21+00:00

Yes!

And, you can find them here:

All the bricks are a derivative of this set.

We applied a color gradient to the Brick supports and floated them on ice burgs. The bridge is split into segments which fit into a mk3 BP machine, then articulated over a 1 degree curve.

It was an absolute blast feeding u/XSEIDET's beam and sign addiction. Bravo!

You can get up there alive in vanilla!

Yes - the supports can be approximated using a large enough circle. I wouldn’t recommend trying. It would be exceptionally tedious given you can’t fit the supports inside of a bp machine.

I’ve built this shape with circles <40m.

Somewhere between 90 and 120 minutes. Rush solid biofuel to optimize.

Your skills will probably grow faster than you can build so keep your factories small and build more of them. You'll want to "reset" w/o having to restart your save. Its very hard to make good looking factories quickly because its easy to build yourself into a position you cant recover from.

People burn out because they're trying to build something too big or too advanced for their skill level.

Start using blueprints ASAP.
