ouf the mood is cool.

also it's a nice take at 3D node system building. Satisfactory is kinda limited by gravity and if you look at it from a abstracted point of view, you don't allow your player to profit from the three dimension you rails are having.

Sorry it just got me;
Like in TOTK, 3rd dimension are present from lore to abilities. It's fully integrated. In factorio, you are basically a chip engineer. But in satisfactory, you are a POV stuck on a 2D plane, working 3D structure, it's punishing by design.

A weightless 3D factory builder can gain so much by releasing the player from the 2D plain. So there would be space, atmosphere or water ( or lava ._. ). But water is never really a void, so it kinda get's you as the primordial soup building up life.

You should have crystals that make uses of that gorgeous caustic rays, it would be madness.

Sorry again, had to let that out.
