I really love how clean you speak. It's so easy to understand you... even when you talk a bit faster. There are so many content creators in Germany who do speak a lot of "denglish", an immature mixture of mostly german and a bit of bad, very bad english. You sir,... you're different and I really appreciate it. This is why I prefer english speaking content creators like you. Much respect and love for what you do and how you do things from Germany.

@turosianarcher8771 Месяц назад

I've been with this game from near the beginning, and I've loved it through all its iterations. I really like some of the changes they've made to the production line with ore refinement and the smelters auto-detecting the recipe. That meant that when I "upgraded" my production, all I needed to do was add in the crushers at the beginning, and then upgrade my output lines to handle the increased output. Very nice. Also, from everything I've known about the game, the loaders do not have a maximum speed and run at the speed of the belt, so placing multiple output loaders from your drone miners isn't necessary. Can't wait for your next video on this. Absolutely love how you've routed everything down under and brought the items out to the "mall" area. I'm only a day or so into my playthrough after the release, and I'm really strongly considering restarting and doing something like that. So clean and efficient! Big fan of your Satisfactory stuff, so I can't wait to see your gigafactory in this game!

@Br3dst3r 12 дней назад

I love that you buried your belts for a cleaner look. I found out the hard way that your robot doesn't stoop or crouch to pass through slightly shorter tunnels, so you can't cross over the belts that you've laid if you only have 2 cubes of vertical room. When I have the materials to expand elsewhere, I'm going to elevate the foundation instead, so I can bypass the need to dig trenches.

@RickClark58 Месяц назад

For me, it was easier to go with a distributed, black-box model with a central bus system that feeds the various production areas. I treat each area like a black-box; it has an input, a single production item, and the output. Think of writing a computer program with various functions being run my the main program. Since each area is a dedicated item, I can easily scale the item if I need by simply extending the input and adding more machines. For the output, I add a storage if necessary, and then route the output item back into the main bus system. What is nice is that I can take advantage of the Y coordinate, both underground and in the sky. Using this methodology, I found I didn't need to redesign the whole factory as new unlocks appeared. However, I have no idea if this methodology works in the long-term. I am still early in the process.

@Apokalupsis88 Месяц назад

Sounds pretty cool. Are there any images of layouts of this type of build (if even for another game)? I can't quite picture it. But it sounds adaptable, and after about 5 restarts, it may be a good solution for my scatter brain.

@Turboflabs Месяц назад

Thanks this will help me figuring out how to do my factory.

@Fissiccisst1 Месяц назад

Big thing for me with starting in Foundy is figuring out how much each drone miner is providing. Obviously is not stable based on distance from the miner and it'll get worse as they need to travel farther as the node gets mined out. I *think* they cap out around 60 ore/min? But any work on miner for at least belt 1 saturation would be nice.

@TotalXclipse Месяц назад

I've seen miners at 64/65 ore per minute, but they drop to about 40 per minute as the ore runs dry.

@Fissiccisst1 Месяц назад

@@TotalXclipse Cool, thanks for the info!

@I.am.gnarlyCrone Месяц назад

My little factory is already a mess. I am starting over using your layout. Thank you.

@franklinchappell6096 Месяц назад

I would love to see a deeper dive on efficiency with items per minute from mining to smelting and production. I know in Satisfactory, it feels pretty straight forward to figure out how to run everything at 100% so you don't see any items sitting on the belt line. I just feel like im missing something with this game and even Factorio. Is it even possible to maintain 100% product efficiency in Foundry??

@gaetan5161 Месяц назад

I think the difficulties come from the fact that ressources are finite in foundry, no so much from the ratios.

@reverance_pavane Месяц назад

When I get High Voltage I rebuild my "starter" factory elsewhere (using non-starting nodes) immediately, then rebuild the initial factory into what is pretty much a self-contained research centre. Crushing ore before smelting is a must (as soona s possible), else you will run out of resources before you get the tech you need to start exploiting distant resources. [Also Mining Force I or really good shot placement with your explosives to access that critical second initial XF reserve.] Then build microfactories producing basic components and run between them (never underestimate the bandwidth pf a running robot). I think you can only build a serious factory when you get the transport drones. Until then it's all starter factory. That said I had to restart completely because the first seed was so bad and there was no basic resources within 1 km of my drop point. Not to mention being full of mountains. Trying to build a research centre with widely scattered resources is problematic at best. I find you really burn through the starting resources building science packs (I haven't even started on Level 4 research yet and I'm running dangerously low on XF).

@MidKnight2142 Месяц назад

Actually reminds me more of Fortress Craft Evolved. Not exactly a unique combination of genres but typically fun.

@Chaosruler210 Месяц назад

So I know what I am doing tonight in the Foundry. Mine isn't a mess but not that neat. I'll go through and make more blocks just to cram everything together again. Rinse and repeat. I had not really understood why you needed to go from the rubble up to the next level. But I understand it more now. Makes sense to not build the factory around the mining areas, but like you said, that is not something that is told. I think some of the information on the F1 page might need to be looked at and fixed. Or made a little bit more complex for once you do get into pipes and more. I can say I have probably put 6 hours into my first save. And so far have not run out of material but do see many another hour or 2 and it's gone. Might start a new game with this information and all I have learned myself from playing. Excited to see more.

@rockmuschel Месяц назад

I built a chunk of my factory at spawn. But I also built several bus systems. My factories at spawn still got ressources after the ones at spawn were used up

@FastTquick Месяц назад

Starting my own playthrough, I got the worst spawn location you could ever imagine: I started in a jungle located immediately next to a mountain range which happens to have more jungle located behind it. Sure, I can get a lot of biomass, but it makes everything so hard to build. I did manage to get a research setup up and running making blue and red science packs, but I will plan on building my actual main base in the desert a managed to find nearby.

@TotalXclipse Месяц назад

restart with my seed?

@FastTquick Месяц назад

@@TotalXclipse I’m too far in to restart now. Besides, I want to check out the randomized map generation.

@reverance_pavane Месяц назад

My initial seed had no basic resources within 1 km of the starting location (and the XF and TN were almost 1.5km apart as they were in different directions) and was pretty much full of mountains. As a result (and given how fast research was consuming the starting resources) I felt that that seed was essentially unplayable. I was spending hours doing nothing while waiting for necessary research to complete. A restart gave a much more acceptable start (and where I could set up other stuff whilst waiting for the research).

@Stasiek_Zabojca Месяц назад

TBH

@tapejara1507 Месяц назад

Game feels like you just supposed to overload all belts. At least for me as a noob trying to figure it out.

@TotalXclipse Месяц назад

That's pretty much how the bus systems work - but it'll change later into the game I believe :)

@gibdargeth Месяц назад

I love your production line style, only issue I see with that system you’ll run out of Xeno from the starter nodes much sooner, I’d rather have plenty of plates and rods and build on the fly, I only automate plate, rods and foundations but obviously the research also. As nodes are finite they are quite valuable your starter build will benefit from the mining efficiency research further along

@TotalXclipse Месяц назад

They're only finite in the early game, and as you proceed into the mid-game, there are much larger veins to be found underground :) so I wouldn't worry too much

@gibdargeth Месяц назад

@rphilipsgeekery4589 Месяц назад

For those wandering about this verses satisfactory , It's a lot faster to play then satisfactory . , But less immersive , In my opinion, satisfactory is for people who want to build beautiful factories. This game is not that , It's a combination of factorio and fortresses craft, long tern its going to be interesting, cause it has funding ..paradox , but thats years off

@TotalXclipse Месяц назад

I think that's a pretty good summary, but I'll probably cover it more indepth as it's own video :)

@Bucko2614 Месяц назад

Spot on. I prefer Satisfactory because I love the maths, the load balancing, and optimisation. This feels much more forgiving and simplified. But it will keep me going until the Satisfactory 1.0 release. Then I'll take a break from it and wait until this reaches 1.0. Also, I'm still in two minds about depleting resources. I like that it is a lot more realistic than Satisfactorys endless resources, but it makes the aforementioned planning and optimisation much more difficult. I "hate" depleting resources, but it adds a level of difficulty I'm enjoying 🤔😂
