Send the output from pumps into the top of the recycling pipe work. The water from the recycling will take priority. - Turbomotor parts factory - How modular should it be? hmm - Keep 2 for now until I need to make ACU as well (seaprate factory) - HMF -> po - [[#Nuclear]] - [[Satisfactory Nuclear Plant.excalidraw]] - [x] bring power to nodes - Enter quartz from where?? hmm - [ ] Connect steel beams - [ ] Heatsink setup - [ ] Quickwire split - [ ] Bring things into uranium cells - [ ] Bring things into uranium rods - [ ] plan out structural logistics with logan - How conveyors should enter - Roof aesthetic - Outer framing shown in example - Wall aesthetic - Could be slowly tilted outwards - Improved coal transfer and building - Solid steel ingot - Maxed out foundry - Hard drive recipes - Heat-fused frame takes a lot of aluminum - Copper alloy ingot - Pure aluminum ingot - Existing - Copper Alloy Ingot - HOR - Recycled Rubber and Plastic - If chilling with oil - Coated Cable - Coke steel ingot ### Tier 4 - ## Logs ### 2024-09-28 - Gave up on trying to make it look super nice, just put everything onto one logistical floor lul - I think it's still pretty organized, and maybe these are the constraints? - surprised that the belt transfer worked out so well honestly - sometimes i would look back and just be surprised at how much buildings we've had to build jesus ### 2024-09-25 - Made decent progress on space planning - I like the idea of conveyor walls - Found out compact setup for manufacturers! - Just need to think on tube - Definitely much more fun working on making it look nice as well - different strokes for different folks - Watched a bunch of other sfs vids too ### 2024-09-24 - Started planning out nuclear ### 2024-09-23 - Particle enrichment! - Trying to consider both factory optimization and aesthetic is tough, just lazily scrapped together resources for the main base lul ### 2024-09-22 - Started caring a bit more about factory aesthetic 😎 - Unlocked drones which was fun, also having the train actually connect with the oil rig 🤩 - Need to think about how I want to do this hmm - Feels like discovering minecraft again lul ### 2024-09-21 - Was able to set up phase 4 and that unlocked SO much stuff - Single-handedly set up the aluminum setup to max efficiency, it is very scuffed but ehh i'll deal with it later 🤷‍♀ - did lots of exploring, map is massive and thinking about the possibilities for factory creation with the blueprints is fun! - just need to think on how to map it out - trains seem quite simple thanks to that video, helped encourage a lot of best practices - somersloop and dimensional depot is kinda op ngl - can't wait to actually connect factories, that is going to be 🤯 - seems quite simple to set up train tracks too surprisingly, as long as it is high enough and the resources aren't too far - only 50mw feels cheap af - nuclear power is going to be tough xd ### 2024-09-11 - Fun having a lot of people simultaneously working on it hehe ### 2024-09-12 - Played satisfactory, that 1.5 hour went by so fasttt wtf - Ended up playing more just because I knew we could improve the factory by automating modular frames lul - I just love how it's continuous improvement, my desire for productivity and creating systems could easily be satisfied by this ## Thoughts ### Journey vs destination - thought about journey vs destination - mini sandbox to experiment lifestyle - fisherman's paradox - do you want to scale so then you can start enjoying life, or do you want to scale then enjoy life later? - ficsit reminds me of isekai escapism but for westerners - hint of capitalist exploitation, but ironically you're given a lot of freedom in how you do it - literal property meant to extract resources from a planet - yet this sense of exploration and autonomy makes you okay with it ### Engineering mindset - writing clean code (factories) for collaboration - importance of project planning - resources - location - buildings - logistics - recipes ### What is leisure - Why am I compelled to do all this complex thinking for HOURS on end without breaks? - The distinction of constant and clear goals to work towards - We have a wiki at our disposal to know how to optimize - We can see YouTubers who have done cool builds for inspiration - Know exactly what needed to do, and it's a lot of things to process at once - What is the case for not just playing satisfactory all day? moral obligation i think? - because otherwise [[Video games provide virtual meaning]] to a very high degree - they're the third spaces at which we can foster connections and overcome [[Loneliness]] from a simple world - Constant unlocking of new tools and features - This can also related to [[On complex second brain systems]] - Not about the art of simplifying, but about the need for complex systems to manage the resources we have - As we continue to scale our perception, project complexity, and resources available, we will inevitably need these meta-skills of productivity and systems thinking to manage it all - And I've somehow obtained it through games lmao - perception is overcoming our limiting beliefs and understanding our potential in the world - project complexity is the grandness of our objectives and the steps required to get there - resources available are realizing how to extract things - what if my space aesthetic had a similar concept when it comes to exploration? or should i play no man's sky to better understand? ### Obsession - very impressive for a game to achieve this level of dedication - People are agreeing with how they are taking a week off to play the 1.0 update - Groups of friends are committing to this - It's a shared collective - I think this is what might be missing in these more productivity parts of the internet - I feel it might be isolated and individualistic with solo goals ## Building ## Phase 4 - 4 4 1 1 - https://www.reddit.com/r/SatisfactoryGame/comments/13r5k9j/how_big_of_a_project_is_it_to_produce_phase_4/ ## Nuclear - 300 uranium with infused recipe = 50-80k power - One uranium plant: - 0.2 rods/min usage - 10 waste/min - By default, 300 uranium -> 3 rods/min - 3 x 5 = 15 x 10 = 150 waste/min - [Tips](https://www.reddit.com/r/SatisfactoryGame/comments/1codz9w/1st_time_going_nuclear/) - People say to drone in but that's boringgg #### Connection - Belts - Acids + uranium - Silica - Iron plate - Industrial beam - Concrete - Manu - Electro - Steel beam - Encased Uranium Cell #### Bottom platform - Sulfuric - 2 refinery - Nitric acid - 3 blender - Non-fissile uranium - 5 blender - Plutonium Pellet - 3 particle - [ ] Encased plutonium cell - 8 ass - [x] Plutonium fuel rod - 5 man #### Nuclear reactors - 24 (4.8 / 0.2) -
