Video

Yep! So when you wrote your first comment on the previous episode, I thought you meant a mod. You corrected me saying you meant the helix. So I was correcting myself. I think I mentioned you suggesting a mod in the video…and then cut that part out. But missed where I still mentioned you.

I appreciate the thorough and easy to understand response! And thank you for the kind words. I sure do love SF+! I'm not sure I figure it out that episode, but I'd guess in the episode after this one I mention it...but only because someone else in the comments told me to switch from any to "undefined!" You nailed the issue right on the head.

Yes yes yes! You’re very right.

FINALLY someone mentioned it! Ha. I love putting those little easter eggs from the things I love into the videos. Most of the time they go unnoticed. Thanks for commenting!

You're welcome! I hope you're able to use this to build something amazing!

It's pretty fun. Been pretty quiet lately, people are busy with warmer weather in many parts of the world. We had a community server for a while, I think we're do for a restart and fresh map. Where'd you start your playthrough?

@@BEDplaysGAMES Grass Fields. Thought it would be spacious enough for all the new things we have to make now. We STILL have issues trying to run water going uphill.

Of course! Castor and Pollux is an amazing choice. Sirius was on the short-list. Rigel. Altair. Spica. Those were the rest of my initial list. I think they're just all the brightest stars, so not that clever.

@@BEDplaysGAMES Of course, how could I forget Sirius? Well, that's going to be your light-house ^^

That seems like a bug, don't you think? I've heard of that but I've never really tried using it since I always assumed it'd be removed. Just as a warning, this video was a test for a new series that never took off. I think I only did 1 or 2 episodes using those mods. I appreciate you watching and commenting, though!

I'm trying to future-proof for once. Trying to work on the next episode and I'm not really wanting to cross railways. If I do, I have to add signals and trains will have to stop and wait for each other. I'm starting to think I should have only had a single directional track on the main floor. It's a lot easier to peel off and get back on a single direction.

@@BEDplaysGAMES This is why people run a two track network throughout their worlds, and sometimes they make a priority path for important materials.

@@xenodestroyer4803 Gotcha. I'm so new to trains for having played the game so long. But I'm learning.

Thank you, thank you! I'm really excited to start on the next video. I feel like the last several episodes have been building up to THIS. Factory building inside Tetra.

Thanks! I know this episode was boring, but I think it was the last piece of the "foundation" we needed to really explode into cool stuff in the future.

@@BEDplaysGAMES I love seeing how other people build things. Not boring to me.

lol Oh crap. Yep. You're absolutely right. And not just a tad off. It's like...4m off. Luckily, this'll be a super easy fix since we can dismantle full blueprints now. Thank you for pointing this out! I'll feature this comment first thing next episode.

Thanks, Farty!

Thanks! It's my favorite kind of episode. Boring, long, and easily skipped!

Excellent! I hope you enjoy it and build something fantastic.

Thanks for taking the time to comment, and for commenting such kind words! I try to mask the accent but it's definitely always still there. I never originally knew about the accent until I moved away from Michigan. After a year I returned for a visit and met up with some college friends. I couldn't believe how they spoke! I guess now that we've been back over 10 years, I just don't notice anymore. Japan is a huge change of scenery! Sounds lovely.

YES!

Hhwwwwhhhhhhshhhhhtck

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try that method and test it out. My main worry isn't filling the floor in completely, it's having the floor foundations be at different orientations. I was worried if I zoop the floor in this manner I won't be able to line up machines and splitters because the floor underneath as it different angles every foundation in the side-to-side direction.

@@BEDplaysGAMES That makes sense. I have faith that you'll figure something out to make it work!

We're all Vlad.

Hell yeah. Every content creator's dream.

It adds a lot of flavor to be able to refer to factories by name. It's something I always intend to do and just never got around to doing until now.

Will do! Expansion should be easy once I start bringing ALL of the resources together. Need to redo steel, oil/plastic/rubber, cobalt and do invar. And we're going to need power. I should probably redo oil so I can burn that fuel for energy.

Thanks! I liked the flow a lot, though I got bored with my rambling later in the video. I made a conscious choice to leave it in, though, because I think detailing the plan going forward was important me working through the whole idea mentally. Thanks, as always, for your continued support!

Thanks for all the comments! I'm still in love with this idea and I plan to use it...everywhere, once 1.0 launches and I start a new vanilla playthrough.

I've been considering doing more load balancers. I really like seeing the materials constantly moving on a slower belt. It's much more visually interesting that nearly stand-still manifolds.

I remember back a few udpates ago you could snap the splitters to the ends but they didn't actually split. It was a pleasant surprise that you could functionally do it now...I have no idea which update that feature came with.

Great idea, Jaco! I had planned when I first started this season to add that mod in, but I think since I'm so close to the end, I'll wait until next SF+ season.

@@BEDplaysGAMES the train elevator is not mod. Its spiral going up. Where you have middel foundation as a pillar. And every 2 or 3 foundation of 4m you build 3 foundation out, and place a 2m ramp. And you keep doing that until you reached the top

Oh, I misunderstood! Yes, that's exactly what I'm going to do. You and another commenter suggested that, and it was surprisingly easy to build!

I'm not sure I follow what you mean, but my thought is to have the stations 90 degree turn inward from the outer circular train tracks. I love the idea of using the helix going up. I've found some other inspirational posts, I'll see how easy it is to implement. Maybe I can make a blueprint and it'll be easy. Thanks!

Hello, I didn't think of 90 degrees inward, so my point is not relevant. Just to try to explain (even worse for me in english), I was worried of space if the station were 'parrallel' to the train lines. As if you draw a line between 2 point of the circle, the straight line is shorter than the portion of the circle it joins; hope it is more clear... (not sure of it).

Thanks, Farty!

Awesome! Thanks for the comment and the sub!

Fastest way to make a baked potato is droppin' this blueprint in your save.

I don't know! I build potatoes compared to this! I was blown away and had to share, and you had the same sentiment as I did. An artist at work.

Sure they made a house, but it will never actually work. It does nothing, serves no purpose other than decoration and lags your game significantly. Give me a large endgame Turbofuel Power Plant design that looks 1/100 as good as this

@@Sotanaht01 once I get my Gold Coast Sat+ power plant done, I’ll try to get ya a picture.

I've been deep-diving others' blueprints for this new blueprint series I'm planning and there's just some insane stuff out there. I think I should stick to floating platforms and just have fun.

Thanks* Maker* Gaming*!

This thing is a work of art. I've discovered all I can make are works of fart.

It's truly an amazing sandbox we get to play in. Factory building is amazing, but they've also created the smoothest 1st person movement in any game I've played. They could use the bones of this game to make platformers, shooters, puzzle games, the sky's the limit.

I recently tried getting into Fallout: New Vegas, because since it came out I've heard nothing but amazing things. It's arguably one of the most well regarded stories from an RPG ever created...and I had to give up after just 1-2 hours because the movement was so, so clunky and just...bad. It's funny, after playing Satisfactory, once you see how good movement can feel, I almost can't play any other games.

I'd buy this! If ficsit paid me.

Yep, the rework is real! There's a public beta for the first couple tiers released already. I haven't tried it out, I'll get it eventually, but I want to get through all this content as fast as possible.

That's great feedback, thanks! If I have a problem with inventory moving forward I may try this approach.
