So I've never commented on a video or somewhat like that but I just need you to know that I absolutely love your videos. Calm and collected and chill as you are you deliver such nice work that one can literally just build alongside it. I hope you keep up the amazing work! Stay true to yourself and stay healthy!
Thank you for everything
Waiting for the oil refinery setup, don't leave us hanging!
I second this vote👍
He left us hanging...
@@Lord_Sunday because it’s the easiesr system to balance
Just came across one of your guides 5 min ago and holycow your guides are so clean, I was looking for good tutorial channel for this game guess I found it
I didn’t realize I hadn’t actually watched this video for some reason. It’s very nice to see your style growing as it has, especially with your dedication to symmetry and attention to detail. Me and a friend have made a world and are building it in your style, we really enjoy it. Making these kind of factory structures together on a platform makes it look like a small city, it’s amazing!
Thank you for the wonderful video.
Am I the only one who watches these tutorials, not because I need them but because I just like seeing scalti build and commentate?
I spent 3 days trying to do what your video taught me in under 25 minutes. Thanks!
Thanks so much for these videos, I've just started playing and struggled to find a channel where the host wasn't shouting but your vids are all so calm and collected. I would love to see how you'd start a fresh world and dealt with the less than ideal situations I find myself in often.
I think I know which host you meant lolz
@ImKibitz
Greetings Pioneer,
i have seen u build the same conveyor bus belttowers like i do.
i go for this setup to reduce the amount of towers:
Tower -> 6 Foundations (place conveyorwall) -> 5 Foundations -> Tower
On each Tower you can place a Powerpole in the middle. Has the perfect lenght to each other.
Works also with Wallmount Powerconnectors.
After placing the conveyor belts, you can delete the connecting Foundations and the middle Conveyorwall.
Looks great with floating belts and keeps the whole factory look clean.
Wish you the best. :)
I just gotta say, your method of approaching factories has rubbed off on me immensely. Thank you for making such good guides.
Thank you for your great videos. Good idea to add the description of what's needed below the video. Keep up the good stuff and stay healthy!
I built this in vanilla and it was a task! Took me a few hours (interrupted) to complete. Thanks for the guide it's awesome! Where can I send you some pics of the build? Also - if you got a shirt/hoddie designed that was something like - Time to make a sandwich - with platforms as bread and assembly lines between - I would totes buy one. Edit: One thing I'd like to see is making walkways and ramps for navigating your style of factory. More aesthetic than functional, but it might help the vanilla players in their build to see it.
Twitter is best most likely. I do check the Official Satisfactory discord regularly so throwing an @ my way works too.
Feel like my factory building has shot up 2 levels . Loving the builds !!
I really like this game, but my brain just can't get the hang of complex builds, and it gets frustrating easily. This guide looks like it will help a lot. maybe if I build this setup a time or two, that will help some. Thanks for the video.
Yeah the game feels so frustrating to the point I just restart again after reaching tier 5 and 6
Understand the math.
Just like you dont magically learn French from copying someones text 2 times, you wont magically get the math from copying his build 2 times.
Thanks for your casual, well and compact designs. Very detailing guide. We wait for the most complex items setups👍
Hahaha wtf this is exactly what I needed when I needed it. Mind reader
Zen and the Art of Satisfactory.
Hey just a tip (Iol I'm giving you tips), you can always run and slide under the belts in the sandwich layers, also you can always crouch and get through a wall conveyor opening!
“Can’t see it, doesn’t exist.”
*-Scalti*
Watching on your stream then seeing the edit is awesome. Keep up the amazing content!!
Thanks for tuning in to the live stream.
Ooofta this was a big one for me. Once it was all set up and done... I accidentally sent coal through the iron side with item teleporters. So then had to go hunt and find where all that coal had gotten to. Figured it out and voila PERFECT STEEL FACTORY
That belt work in the first half of the video was beautiful
To make this 100% efficient (in terms of power usage that is, the output technically already is because of the 1:1 ratio's) you should probably slighty underclock the foundries (by 11.111%). As by default they expect 45/min input and it's only 40 (because of splitting the 240 by 6). Or overclock the miners and the constructors to 112.5% but then you need Mk.3 belts from the foundry outputs to the constructors. And its probably not worth it in terms of output vs power usage (16.75 vs 15 beams/m and 22.5 v 20 pipes/m), so I would just underclock.
Great video's, I'm following most of them for my own playthrough, you have a neat build style!
just made your 16 rotors per min vid and im already working on this farm couldnt play this without you
BIG fan of the way you build and how you present your videos! All my factories use your vertical integration technique. If I could make one suggestion/request? If you could put a still shot with a diagram for each floor so it is easier to determine which buildings are making which parts, that would be extremely helpful. :)
You're a GOD!
It's fun trying to alter your plans when the alternative recipes are unlocked. Currently toying with the modular frame setup using 2 alternative recipes. Keep at it scalti
It was a massive effort but I finally finished it, and it looks very elegant but also kind of evil. Thanks a lot for the instruction!
whenever i watch your videos, i cant believe we are playing the same game. you really put factory design to a new level. thank you so much for sharing :)
These videos are SO helpful, so many people don’t include what type of belts they use or anything and you’re always super clear! So keep up the great work :)
Where was this when I was setting up my steel the first go round? hehehe Now got some alternates for steel that I'm running with...
Thanks for your Videos, Scalti! Alot of the design philosophies have greatly influenced my base, namely the Sandwich Layer, which is the entire floor where I route material to and from my individual plants and stages. Now onto my first manufacturing level/deck with 450+/min inputs... ho boy
Your builds and guides are phenomenal! Keep up the great work! If I might ask, could you do some future builds that utilize some of the alternate recipes?? I'm always searching to see what people have done with alternate recipe builds and they're very rare. Especially the useful early game recipes like Iron Wire, Stitched Plates, etc.
Excellent build man. Thank you!
One of the few channels where you can hit the like button before watching the video. Great stuff! Keep going!
Heyo, really liking your factory style! It's super artistic and clean. Something I would suggest to grow your channel is to maybe start a series with a new world where you go through the game only building these modular factories. Making it personal and more "story-driven" where people can follow your progress might get you more subscribers and viewers (people love stories). You could call it like "Playing through Satisfactory ONLY building modular factories" or something like that. This is just my two cents on how I think you could grow your audience. :)
Amazing videos nonetheles, keep it up!
Awesome work dude, can we see some space elevator part factory guides please!
I love your content, so relaxing seen your tutorials, easy to understand and your contruction technique is awesome.
P.D. Will you do a crude oil factory tutorial?
Will be doing every vanilla recipe to start. Might throw in some alternates here and there.
Thanks man, really good stuff, I cloned this design of yours for my factory, thank you 🤜🏻.
PS I built it without even "flying"
Hey man, can you, when you say the power needed or input/output, add visual of the numbers? (no need of a graph for machines but just the number written when you call them). Your tutorial are neat and accurate. I love them!
Seems simple enough. I will give that a try in the next video. Have this idea saved.
Edit. This information is also in the description of each build.
@@Scalti If you can, could you include a map location? :D
Any chance you could show us how you do your busses and rout resources from nodes to factories?
I would love to see a much more general guide about keeping construction clean and how to properly employ a subfloor to make a multi-floor factory.
I LIKE YOUR DESIGNES.GONNA USE THAT DESIGNS ON MY NEW START.
Scalti i'm way too dumb to figure this out, you're too damn good at this.
this is pure gold
*steel :P
Amazing videos, can't wait to see some of your factory guides that include manufacturers. A computer factory would be awesome ☺️.
I think once I start including manufacturers there will be an overall shift in layout. Haven’t gotten that far in the game myself yet so time will tell.
Where have you been Scalti? Your videos are amazing! Thank you
If you're ever worried about getting stuck in a sandwich layer just remember you can slide under belts 98% of the time. Like if you can build speed for even a second you can slide under even super low belts
Thanks for this, helped on my new playthrough and saved me a ton of time!
This is such a lovely design, i will make use of this!
Oh yeah, looks like ive got some work to do now... gonna mimic the great almighty SCALTI (we're not worthy)
@scalti have you ever considered uploading your save files so we can explore your builds? would LOVE that! thanks for the amazing tutorials!
Wow! Another great design, keep up with the good work scalti.
Btw your video quality is AMAZING
Love this factory! Produces an insane amount of steel. More than I know what to do with. Should I use this factory to automate more complex parts? I feel this produces so much steel that more complex/lower output factories would never drain the storage buffer. Especially with the amount of coal and iron this place requires. Just not really sure where to go from here. Just completed delivery 2 and am at Teir 6. So many things to do but just unsure of where to start!
me at t3 and just finished building reinforced iron loool
I have learned so much, thank you for these clean tutorials.
Just built this today, love it!! Great guides, keep it up!
Well done Scalti, thank you for the effort you put into your videos.
i modified mine a bit and put my own idea to it, but it works great. im making 60 pipes and 100 beams
I love your videos, no bs
Super cool! That was, what i needed. Your videos are really clean.and you also improved yourself. What do you plan for the future ? Im excited to see it. :)
Well my current goal for the channel is to complete a guide for each item in the game for its vanilla recipe. After that, head back and do alternative recipe builds perhaps.
I’m also streaming a play through as well and debating on a let’s play. My hesitation with this is cutting parts out to make each episode a reasonable length.
@@Scalti a Les play would be awesome! look forward to you choosing that route if you do! i'll even play along and try recreate it as well! your videos and gameplay are chilled and fantastic!! Keep up the great work!!
Great work man! Watching these videos has helped me learn how to build items and I appreciate these! Keep up the great work.
if you overclock the miners you can use the full load capacity of the MK3 belts at 270 instead of 240. Thus giving you 45 steel ingots from each foundry instead of 40. Not sure if that makes any difference higher up in the chain though :)
It does. That’s why I don’t use the full belt capacity.
I've found that it's WAY simpler to load balance the coal and iron ores if you have both materials entering from both ends. Only requires 12 splitters and super simple belts of appropriate speed, and it fits perfectly in in halves with each end of the building supplying each side of foundries.
This may be late but what exactly do you mean by that?
When doing those sandwich layers, you can sprint and slide to get under the conveyors and not have to worry about getting stuck :)
Great videos! Thanks!
@Scalti. hold R and you can reverse the direction of those lifts when "blank placing" them ;-)
That feature did not exist when making the video.
How can you build stuff already painted white?
Your channel is gold. Love it!
Color gun. Right click with it equipped and modify the upper left most swatch and it changes your default colors.
Great content mate, im sure you'll blow up once this game comes out fully
You have my subbed
Awesome job. I hope you can do one for the Christmas update.
Super helpful thanks
Amazing tutorial! Thank you so much
It's mine boggling how you guys design these factories. How on earth do you come up with this?
Great vids, easy to follow.. I'm new to this game and have so much to learn, the biggest problem I have at the moment is aligning things, I've heard if you right click or hold control or something that aligns them, but that never worked.. Any kind souls want to fill me in? :)
Glad to see another upload.
These are amazing videos and got me back playing the game again so thank you!
Heavy Modular Frames coming next? :D
Soon^TM. Once I get to refinery stuff is when it’ll happen. Still have stators/motors to do.
Your videos are the most useful of any Satisfactory [guides/tips/tricks] I have seen, the modular 3x7 vertical factory style is actually manageable even without fly! given proper scaffolding. I keep seeing mega-bases and sprawling showcase factories that I could never do in the free time I have to play this game. These compact factories allow more versatility to schlubs like myself and to make transportation to advanced systems factories down the line without full tear-downs. I copied your Modular Frame factory to get a feel for the style and was so pleased.
Is there any chance for some simple text notations down the line?
What do you mean by text notations? Subtitles?
@@Scalti Like a rudimentary text diagram. Something depicting the number of floors and orientations, I realize the belts are controlled chaos and applaud the sandwich floor. but I have inverted the floorplan twice and had to reroute/rework those floors. It is easy to get spun around without the same landmarks and/or fly.
I repeated sections of the video before I realized I was inverted, and i would do it again too just to listen to that voice and how well you organize your factories.
Hello Scati, I am actually having 1 issue with ur build (Btw love the videos!) Anyways, if you cant answer then it is what it is. The issue I am having is in regards to the walls you start putting down at 14:21. Now I a made the sandwich layer exactly like yours but when I put the walls down it doesnt go flush like yours. I used the 8 x 1's with the 2 spaces in between empty , but my wall covers 1 more space above. Anyways I hope you can help me in regards to this, and if there is a way I can show you my issue I will! Thank you again for the videos! Actually never mind , I read the comment below and it got me thinking . SO the solution I did was actually made 1 more 8X1 under ur sandwich layer to use that as my foundation to get the wall in sync with ur sandwich layer.
In some instances you can’t build the extra 8x1 below. Solution is to build a wall on the top foundation and then aim at the lower part of the wall to set the snapping point and that second lower wall will be flush.
@@Scalti Doh! I didn't even think of that! Well thanks again for replying my dude, keep up the good work!
4:36 i think that there's a mistake there... 45+45+45=135 and a MK2 Belt only can handle 120 so i think you will need a MK3 belt there
Yeah, this runs at 89% efficiency due to those undersized conveyor belts at the end.
Great stuff love your work!!
Keep up the tutorial factories Scalti, great stuff as always! :)
One thing I may change, and this is just me being super critical, is when you speed up some of your build to cut the audio and play one build sound at normal speed. The sped up audio is a little much. Or at least cut the volume down
Agreed. I will aim to reduce the volume moving forward.
@@Scalti It's only bad with the machines. The belt audio sped up was fine. Sorry, I don't mean to be a dick, just trying to help you create even better videos, because they are fantastic already :)
Not being a dick when you’re providing constructive feedback like that. I’ve had a couple other people say the same thing.
you can even let the constructors even hang some more out, but you start placing the conveyor lift on the wall
The guide i waited for !
don't you need 270 per incoming line?
Would you consider making a world tour or download at some point? Would really like to explore what you've built and take some inspiration.
I have an idea on how I’d like to release a world save containing everything I’ve made guides for thus far. Will take time to produce though. Stay tuned.
@@Scalti Sounds awesome, I'll definitely wait.
fantastic guide. any idea why i wouldnt hear the beep sound confirming connection? all my sounds are turned on and up
gracias por dejarlo con subtítulos. muy ordenado todo
love the vids you make, calm and collected :)
but... can you show how mutch power the factory will consume in the end ?
Should be stated vocally at the beginning and it’s also in the description of each video.
I don't know if I missed it in the video, but I thought I'd point it out. I was wondering why he used MK2 Belts per foundry line and not MK3 as the standard ratio per foundry is 45 Steel Ingots/min. giving you 135 per min. output. I underclocked each foundry to output a max. of 40 Steel Ingots/min. giving the stated 120 per line. You could run it at 135 per min. but then you'd clog the system and it wouldn't run 100% effecient. It had me confused for a bit there. Apologies if it is indeed stated in the video and I just missed it.
Mind you I am following this in 2023, so maybe the devs changed the ratio of the foundry since this video went up.
Each foundry is only processing 40/min of their 45 total. So input is 120 and means the output is 120.
I like to make the sandwich layer duplicated to have more space and to be able to put both inputs and outputs in it. there is no splitter or merger on the machine floor.
See my latest guides.
Love the videos. Have used several of your builds and have based a lot of my other factories off of your technique. Is it a mod to make the machines default that black and white color? So much better than the orange. Thank you for the content!
Hi. Thank you for all your hard work. It is appreciated. I have a question on your Scalti Steel Factory megaprint. I installed it on my world. I hooked up the outputs running into storage. The factory immediately began producing steel pipe and steel beams WITHOUT any inputs or power hookups. As much as I like something for nothing, this seems like a bit of a spoiler for game play.
Whomever shared that, recreated the factory from my guide and distributed the print of it without my knowing. Sorry you had that experience.
Thank you for your quick reply. Would you consider uploading your build to SCIM Calculator?
Hey Scalti, I love your videos!!!! I enjoy building my own styles, but yours are so clean, I haven't found a way to make mine as good. I have modified this though to use floor holes instead of the conveyor holes. So I have one question... you are running 3 foundries per belt on the first part... but you said they each produce 45... so that's 135 per belt.... and you are saying to use Mk2s... so that cuts off 15 per belt.
They can produce up to 45 / min but they’re only putting out 40. 12 is easier than 10 to load balance.
Great build. But if you could see my face @ 21:50 " You prebuilt what?!" Could have had that in the beginning. :-P
I generally tend to leave that up to the player since everyone has a different approach to storage and what not.
Hey, awesome tutorial but I get sooo much more pipes and almost no beams, why is that?
Do you think you could make a video showing how you set up your miners to look good?
Check out my Instagram. ;] Have an IGTV post showing just this.
instagram.com/the_scalti
Scalti : With that, I'll see you guys on the other side.
B-Roll : Look at me.... I'm the other side now
Haha. I’m taking this as a compliment to my b-roll segment?
@@Scalti of course! 😂 i have plenty more puns in my head with the wording you use!
Love the content!! Me and my brother are at 50hrs-ish in our game and making use of all your building methods and guides and we're having a blast!!
There is a lot less spaghetti for the foundry and it is a lot easier if you route one iron and one coal from each side. That way you don't have to cross anything in the middle.
Can i also use mk3 lifts and belts all the time?
Definitely.
I wish you would have showed us which ores go into which side. Im not sure if its one of each on each side, or one side for coal, one for iron
Thank you bro
Can you show how you do your electrical work too?
Do the foundrys need to be at 89%, even with MK 3 belts and lifts? Seems like my steel pipes don't have a consistant flow of Ingots to reach 80 per minute, even though everything is set up exactly, except the 89%.
