I'm trying to get to t3. Is there any way to move materials into an Assembler faster than the belts I currently have, or do I have to wait for 24 goddamn screws to march their way in there for every reinforced plate?

About 8 hours of gameplay in, I think it's about time for me to shelve the game until 1.0. It's real good, but I think I'd burn out trying to keep up with everything. Highlights for me included:
Is there currently any way to make a rebreather or a gas mask to deal with the poison gas? That's the main thing that usually got me to abandon an area.

Cobbsprite posted:I actually found that I exclusively use conveyor belts and don't use trucks for shiiiiit. I built one (1) truck and used it one (1) time to carry construction materials and as a portable workbench, but haven't done dick with it past that. Conveyors are so much more convenient, and also double as fast travel infrastructure. What's the benefit to vehicles? I've been using a truck as mobile storage for sizeable builds because I find I just can't carry enough materials to finish a construction project on my own. I was just setting up steel production last night and I would have had to make multiple kilometer+ treks back to base for more supplies if I didn't have a trunk full of iron plates and advanced plates. Even with a trunk full of supplies, I still ran out of cable and iron plates while running power and a belt back to base. Other than just as storage, trucks don't seem fast enough to be worth it, plus they destroy all the sweet sweet biomass it touches, and I can't stand wasting resources.

Evilreaver posted:Not only that, it can remove rocks and boulders in that area effect, and can 'target' small plants (to help catch the rocks) Is that how I get rid of boluders? I've been waiting to get dynamite or something to use this coal node I found with a giant rock on top.

Demiurge4 posted:Power transmission poles should also have some loss so you don’t just keep one giant power grid. Having to balance a power grid was the worst part of modded Minecraft and would be just as bad in Satisfactory. I just want to build cool factories, not fiddle with wiring so I make sure to step up/step down power for long distance travel or whatnot.

The whole biomass burner problem could be alleviated by moving coal to Tier 2. Tier 3 seems pretty far along for something so essential as automatable power when T2 has jump pads.

LonsomeSon posted:Factorio has a fixed perspective and no z-axis for buildings, some of the buildings in Satisfactory are so large that if you're standing on the same surface as them when placing them, their edges are WELL out of frame. I'd be happy with a camera drone that could be deployed for an aerial view. Just let me pull it down and reuse it. It would make another good use for biofuel.

Dr. Stab posted:Yeah. You can also pass the save file around and it will keep proper track of who's who. I did that with my friends because being the host is a better experience and it's good to spread that around. I have the worst internet of my friends and the only computer that can run the server. I pity my friends.

Last night I was getting frustrated at the power supply issues I was having in my factory. I'd put up a new bank of coal plants only for the power to trip ten minutes later, leading to me making more fuel plants, and I was pretty sure I wasn't supposed to be running out of power that fast. Then I noticed that the two ends of my factory had two different numbers for power capacity Long story short, a ~1m wire connection took me from constant power outages to ~2k MWH power surplus. Be careful how you pull out your biomass generators, kids!

At least riding the trains is a lot of fun! And the animations look really good! I'm not looking forward to hooking up the second/third/fourth train loops I'm going to need to get the rest of my products back to my mall, but I'm gonna do it! It's either that or go find that my buddy is belting 480 bauxite/sec back 1.5km back to base on level 1 belts. Again.

I hate how hard it is to get tracks to go straight in a direction. My tracks sort of meander around in a shallow s-bend everywhere and while it doesn't seem to be causing any problems it's still annoying.

Dr. Stab posted:There's more alt recipes than drives. The game used to have an issue where it would crash after researching a drive with no recipes left to find. Hopefully we can just buy extra drives from the coupon store. Make them expensive and equal to the number of extra recipes, that would be a real simple way to fix it.

Cojawfee posted:I haven't even bothered with guns in this new playthrough. I remember the rebar gun sucking and the rifle being worse. I just sprint with my giant sword and leap over them as they charge me. And just stock up on berries for the spitting ones. I'm the only one in my 3-player game that uses the rifle because it honestly kinda sucks. It would be fine if ammo stacked up better and it didn't take so many goddamn resources for ammo, but here we are. Why does ammunition take a shitload of steel? Why do I need to use a quarter of a beacon for four measly bullets? Why can I only carry 50 caseless rounds in the same amount of space that I can carry 500 spools of wire the size of my torso?! I know the answer to all of those,* I just don't like it. *FICSIT, Inc® reserves the right to deny packages, support, or resources to any property found using non-FICSIT, Inc® construction methods on FICSIT, Inc® property.

Put in Thermal Dynamics' Tesseracts imo. Also hire KingLemming, he knows what he's doing in regards to 3d automation games.

chairface posted:The rifle absolutely should be better, available earlier, and have cheaper ammo. The rebar gun is available much earlier but I agree the rifle should do probably 5-10x as much damage with lower ammo cost. I fought 2 of the big blue spitters above the pink forest and it took me 60 bullets. Something's not right there. Maybe have it do the same amount of damage but stack ammo to 1000, and make 10 bullets with 1 steel pipe and 1 black powder?
