aren't you moving off of the world grid when using the miner line up trick? You're snapping foundations to the miner position.

I can't believe that the map editor does not have undo/redo... how is one meant to landscape without it!?

I guess no night maps for me, since I don’t have a credit card. Not does anyone in my family. 😢

Have you thought about increasing your UI scale for video purposes? it is hard to read your UI and menus when watching on phones or smaller monitors

Sorry, I just found this video, and seeing you build something more advance than what I ever built on my 250 hours of satisfactory I asume you know this, but just in case: do you know you can just cover the resource node with "World Grid oriented" foundations and then just place the miner on top of it? It woint solve the wonky first conveyor, since the nodes, for some reason are off grid, but you will have a clean world-aligned mining station

Following your guide I got stuck with a complete lack of reinforced plates to make mk2 belts because they were all being used to make the smart plates, so I kept having to turn off machines to restock on them. But the first recipe I got was one that let me make them with steel plates and copper wire (both of which I was making in abundance), so I just made an offshoot from those lines to a special assembler and that got me back on track without having to turn off the smart plate assemblers. Your guide is awesome and I could fully understand and think through a way to connect it back into the storage system. So if ever that storage container fills up they will start contributing to the sink (although with how many belts I make, that feels unlikely). A very well deserved sub by the way, cheers for all the awesome help!

It's kinda lame the stack splitting isn't covered in the tutorial tbh. I happened on it by accident but i would've preferred if they at least explained that one. feels like basic inventory management to me.

I know it’s not fully in the spirit of the game, but I LOVE that they added an optional passive mode for the animals. I like the building, not the fighting, and my enjoyment of the game shot right up as soon as they just became a wandering resource and not a threat

I guess I’m confused as to why you don’t use 2m foundations hold control and just plaster them over the top of the node. The miner will line up with the grid then. What was solved by doing the whole thing with the road barrier and all that? This game has so many little tricks it’s hard to keep track and know when to use what

Can you give the mapbox keys? I know they are free but i dont want to put card info into it

what a lovely build!

for anyone new watching this when he setup the steel splitters at the bottom make them smart splitters that way half of your steel isnt just going into storage or in the sink but to the parts needed and just send the left overs into overflow

Every time he says “blue lines” I get stuck in an internal debate about whether he or I have colour blindness. It’s definitely one of us. I see it as green

44 Episodes in and we are finally starting to make the parts to get to Phase 3. Wanna start the journey from the beginning.. check out the playlist here. kzfaq.info/sun/PLTUXrZJwbQZ5vGXoR25uZdgq5N5UtOP2b

I Have 750h in this game an didnt know half of the tricks ... crazy stuff :D

At this rate, you'll be done in at least 10 years

I've watched all of these episodes of the HOW TO SATISFACTORY series and i keep coming back to ones like this one and a few others as a reference. Phenixx has one of those voices that is very easy to listen to. Love your stuff.

Very helpful thank you

There actually were a couple of things I didn't know, thanks Phenixx!

26:47 so that's my mistake :) I tend to still start storing at least.

People doing these builds in spacious area, I'm like... ugh sghould I start new game or somehow move out from current location. Started with most difficult area and it's difficult probably cause all the pure nodes and small space.

Me... carefully making BPs and utilising it and sometimes FK it, we do Spaghetti at least we got things producing. This dude... now... now... now... 20min later mining spot with some flare and mini hut... :/

My heightmap is getting all squary when adding it inside the editor. Alost as a minecraft world :P Not smooth as you get!

This video took me wayyyyy to long to finish. But.. it's a return to the games that kinda made me popular. Planet Zoo, and Planet Coaster. Although I recorded this build way before the new Barnyard pack came out. I am pretty excited about using some of the new scenery pieces soon. Also.. sorry about a few small audio mistakes. There are just a couple of spots I think but its what happenes when you record the voiceover piece by piece over the course of 2 Weeks. LOL. As mentioned in the video.. what animal should we put next to the Wolverines here?

You can just nudge the miner left and right to align the miner to the world grid - no need for the road barrier trick.

I've not really seen the map tool before, but it looks great. :)

I have played a lot of this and didn’t know literally any of these except for maybe the miner height adjusting by putting foundation under it

Really great video phenixx, I love the series man. Waiting for a new start that you talked about, if you could try to progress in a different biome which solely focuses on advancing through so that in that world you can build mega builds afterwards bcz I like your building designs (asthetics)

Had to End the Livestream due to Technical Difficulties toward the end here. Mic Went Dead, and Keyboard stopped working. Will continue Another night

are you a monster saying it north south west east :P jk man love the tips :)

You can enter formula when you configure your machines. Thus, in your example with assembler producing 5 motors per minute. Let's say you want for some unknown reason using three assemblers not one, underclocked to produce the same 5 motors per minute. You can just type 5/3 in each machine's clock settings.

im new to the game. is there formula to tell you how many machines you need for new projects?

i cant find colossal order file cant anyone help i bought game with steam

Thanks for keeping the serie's up. And for the homework part (35:09) you could make an alternate storage to store more unusual items like mask , nobelisks, biomass and alien protein stuff? Or make a smal raw quartz facility there, which makes silica and quartz crystals, cus from time to time we need those and we still don't really got those automated yet. I dunno if those idea's are any good. Anyhow thanks for all the effort so far 👍

Hi! Is there any way to change climate on a map? I changed nighttime and daytime temp for all seasons to below 0 so that i could have some snow, but in simulation temperature never goes below 10 celccius as in default map setting

What would happen if you deprived nuclear reactors of their coolant in update 8?

One thing I thought was a little funny about this episode is you meticulously avoided running any wires through the pillars, which could have made many of the connections simpler and cleaner-looking, only an episode or two after you spoke at length about how it was no problem running conveyor belts straight into and through foundations.

as of sun 26th May 2024: creating the new heightmap folder and dropping in the 2 files world and height map png files , they are not detected by the game. 'h' or 'H' does not matter on WinOs a simple test of editor to export default as a Height Save, creates 2 files 1 PNG 1 CID, which contains a unique identifier. so still unable to import any thing from external source, looks like C.O. have altered the Editor detection methos to only list where a .cid file exists so to test that i tried make a text file with a unique number, and named it same as map file.. result after reloading editor , same 0 , nothing shown in list. so then i thought lets take the file generated by the editor as its own save, and replace it with mine, to trick it into loading.... opened it and eh volia itsworked so then i did a quick export height map with the proper name on it, and it did and generated a new .png.cid file .. workaround solved it. At this point i clicked import world map to see if file was listed, it may have been already just i had not tried it yet. but it is there.

It’s very funny to me how the very first tip is something I have never discovered in my four+ years of playing this game, but the second tip was something I discovered in the first hour of my first save file ever. This game is so amazing in how it causes different people to play it different ways!

If follow world grid my base will be diagonally between rock pillars entrance So i just build road from my base to the place i need

Coming in very late to the party, but with some thoughts regarding the refineries turning on and off near the end of the video... things I've learned in my own Satisfactory journey. 1:11:30 Looking at the pipe there appears to be quite a bit of sloshing taking place, which can happen if you don't let the pipes completely fill up before switching on the machines connected to them. 1:12:55 You mention headlift. That pump is plenty sufficient for getting oil up to the refineries, as the refinery inputs are about 16 meters up from the pump. If you're really concerned you could always move the pump to partway up the vertical section of the pipe. 1:13:53 The supply pipe from the extractor is experiencing backflow. The flow indicator slows down and reverses itself. This likely is what's causing some issues downstream, as your oil is reaching the vertical section of the pipe in pulses rather than a continuous flow. Turn off the refineries, let all the pipes completely fill up, and then switch the refineries on one by one. That should help a bit. Also, instead of a "T" branch feeding the four refineries, make a loop for the pipe by connecting the two ends of the "T" together. That helps to reduce backflow issues. Third, fluids feed machines more easily/reliably if fed from above rather than from below. When fed from below, one machine takes a bit of fluid from the pipe, which can then cause the fluid to drop away from the other machines, starving them briefly.

This is extremely helpful for aspiring mapmakers… Please keep it going!

very fun to watch! I get a lot of inspiration in building design from watching your content

Timestamps would be really helpful for this kind of videos.

Great Videos man, love them

So glad you’re continuing the build. So enjoy and building along. Please keep it up, your ideas of placement and planning are spot on.

Shoutout for the Stellaris music

The nudge feature got me gasping

This is way easier than Darren plays tutorial and ngl way more efficient and easier to organize and expand upon

I know this is old but if anyone is building this in update 8, something I do is add a storage in-between the belts where they merge and generators, I like to keep overflow in a storage container to keep them powered if I need to change stuff out so they will continue to release coal while I add miners, change out belts, adjust different belt designs.
