I'd love to be able to use screenshots or images on the displays. I'd use it to document the progress of the factory over time, every few hours. That would be awesome. Seems like a pretty easy feature add as well.
I would like to see a callout when I change zones like you see in MMOs... as a new player, I have no idea where the zones are or when I leave the "grassy fields" and am a bit lost when I hear veteran players talk about "Blue Lagoon" or whatever, and extend that to the map so that I can see where those zones are in relation to each other.
I'm all for more textures. I'd love a retro industry look of cinder block, clay brick, rough concrete, etc. I like the idea of a basic map in the HUB, but your version I think is way to complicated. I think of the was a basic one that had some of the bone biome names out could help orient a new player in the early stage so they could better communicate where they are when asking for help in the discord..I love helping new folks there but sometimes it's so hard to figure out where they even are
for the map, having that actually snap shot the world each time the game saves (aka autosaves) that would help prevent it from being a huge processing/render sink but would be rad since putting that sort of feature on the other map would be. maybe just have it update when you go to it and tell it to but seeing your progress like that would be amazing. using the shapes gets tricky, you basically get to equilateral triangles and after that it breaks walls and will cause more clipping. that said games like rust and conan exiles do it really well and it opens a lot of build options but it would be weird with how belts and such are being run. those added textures are actually perfect because the materials to create them are already in the game, packaged water, raw lime stone, and wood. you could go further and look at all the other materials to see what makes sense.
absolutely, and knowing how the dev's have handled the game thus far, im sure if they were to task themselves with making some of these features they would find ways of working them in properly and not be a huge rendering sink issue.
my top 5 or 10 things I'd love to see in vanilla but will probably never happen, in no particular order: 1) a solution for z-fighting, I hate it. just something like automatically adding a tiny height offset when the piece you are building goes yellow. I don't know if it's feasible or it is something bad for performance reasons. 2) wall corners, so I don't end up using beams or columns to fill that small corner space when two walls meet at 90° 3) floor power outlets: basically double outlets but for floors, or even powered foundations and single outlets you can place down on them. Lately I have been obsessed with this, you can place a vertical double outlet with a beam, but it doesn't work that well with 1m foundations or with catwalks. 4) a precise area build mode where I can +/- or scroll to define length, left click, +/- or scroll to define width, again left click, et voilà, rectangular foundation area built exactly to spec (I think there is a mod for this, I just haven't checked it out yet) 5) tools for building curves 6) scaling down power towers so that they fit 1 foundation, like lookout towers do 7) get rid of the blueprint designer, and just being able to select a 3d space and copy/cut/paste things, or save them to blueprints. It would make building stuff so much faster 8) Of course I'd love more shapes, textures and decor pieces. 9) Build Drone - this is exactly the same as in empyrion galactic survival: activate the drone, and you switch to an aereal perspective, where you can fly around and build from there, as long as you don't fly too far from the player 10) Text in signs should have their own color. I hate that it has to be the same as the highlighting color for the icon. I just like no background on the icon and a colored text, please To be fair, a few of these are feasible, but I'm too lazy to post on the q&a site. Let's hope some charitable modder will turn some of these into reality.
Honestly i know how you feel, those do sound amazing and i would post mine on the q&a site to if i wasnt lazy or thought they had a chance of getting made. maybe we will get lucky and 1.0 will have some of these things. if anything, more building items.
Screenahot mode to have an option to turn off player model and shadow for clean photography as well as flying around in photo mode without the HUD. I like exploring in photo-mode so I can see everything clearly.
Referring the building shapes: It would simply be great if you could just rotate all the around all three axles instead of just the vertical one. If that would be possible you could use ramps for triangular shapes. This is what I miss the most...
i would love to have slider in game where i can make foundation as big or small as i want to. that you add the numbers and click on foundation, and it come out with the size that you number it. back when micro manage was thing(stil has'nt been updated sadly) i would use it alot to make different size´s or flip this. i gues if you would have does 3D creative things you see in the making where you have ball, and bluu arrow going straite up and yellow for widging, and green fot stretch. and a arrow when you click on ball to rotate it. you can same idea
Beside scaling. I also would love different pipe size, for use. Like the coal generatator require 15m water. So why do we need a 300 pipe line. In the real world you see alot of different pipe size lines. Im my build i would like to build hall way with cieling pipe hanging above. Just not the 300 bulky pipe line that we have in vanilla. When look at real factory you see alot of different pipe sizes. So why not have 15,30,45,60 etc for every pipe a bigger size.
that would be nice, i bet there would be a ton of people that would never use them and always set everything to the highest one. its funny how the most creative people and ones who love building are the ones who utilize the verities in the game
granite and marble flooring would be nice... the pool tile would probably cost bottled water to make... packaged or whatever... wood and grass flooring would kinda make sense when you consider taming the doggos but not that usable otherwise in large scale so probably more in the lines of cosmetic item like beams that you could then tile like a floor or as a wall or whatever could work... crystal flooring and walls would be a nice thing too.... also where is you satisfactory plus videos gone to? i need more
Yeah more cosmetic buildables would really change the look of a lot of different factories and give us more options and some unique cases but I feel like they should go bigger with it and not just do a couple extra and really put in extra ones like wood and stuff like that that might only be niche ones to use but some people would still use them. Also the plus series I'm in the middle of editing one now apparently somebody asked me to go for some hard drives and that takes a hefty minute
first! EDIT: ok here are my thoughts. 5) would be really nice. dont think its going to happen though. not even sure what the space looks like there in the new HUB. 4) we are getting more cosmetics. dont think we will get sizing for pieces. honestly if we just had a better way to do curves that would go a long way. like a nice equilateral triangle. 3) very specific request. very limited uses. not sure its needed but any building improvements im all for. 2) for sure, more sign options and layout would be welcome. 1) I dont know if id do wood, but we absolutely need new textures and customization options. I love the water one!
lol thanks, yeah its a lot of wishful thininking on my part but at the same time im not like a lot of people and these are just some things i know i would use the shit out of.
I'd love to be able to use screenshots or images on the displays. I'd use it to document the progress of the factory over time, every few hours. That would be awesome. Seems like a pretty easy feature add as well.
It would be so helpful and cool. Maybe one day we might get lucky and it will show up.
1:40 Satisfactory-calculator-like map on hub wall
5:10 Primitive shapes buildables
7:30 Static distance/non-snapping building
9:30 More sign customization
11:45 Additional buildable textures
yep, very efficient description

Agreed that would be so cool especially if they had like little cutscenes the first time you enter into the biome would be amazing.
I'm all for more textures. I'd love a retro industry look of cinder block, clay brick, rough concrete, etc. I like the idea of a basic map in the HUB, but your version I think is way to complicated.

agreed, it would be nice to get a intro to all biomes when you first enter them.
for the map, having that actually snap shot the world each time the game saves (aka autosaves) that would help prevent it from being a huge processing/render sink but would be rad since putting that sort of feature on the other map would be. maybe just have it update when you go to it and tell it to but seeing your progress like that would be amazing.

nice, i think they added something like that where at least your hand goes away.

This is what I miss the most...

That does sound amazing I would love that as well it would really take building to the next level.

granite and marble flooring would be nice... the pool tile would probably cost bottled water to make... packaged or whatever...
wood and grass flooring would kinda make sense when you consider taming the doggos but not that usable otherwise in large scale so probably more in the lines of cosmetic item like beams that you could then tile like a floor or as a wall or whatever could work... crystal flooring and walls would be a nice thing too....
also where is you satisfactory plus videos gone to? i need more

And snut just drop the tier 9 phase 5 merch video , see him in two month
Llleeeettttsssss gggggooooooo.
first!
EDIT: ok here are my thoughts.
5) would be really nice. dont think its going to happen though. not even sure what the space looks like there in the new HUB.
4) we are getting more cosmetics. dont think we will get sizing for pieces. honestly if we just had a better way to do curves that would go a long way. like a nice equilateral triangle.
3) very specific request. very limited uses. not sure its needed but any building improvements im all for.
2) for sure, more sign options and layout would be welcome.
1) I dont know if id do wood, but we absolutely need new textures and customization options. I love the water one!
lol thanks, yeah its a lot of wishful thininking on my part but at the same time im not like a lot of people and these are just some things i know i would use the shit out of.
@@DrawingXaos oh yeah for sure! I am also really excited for the new cosmetics that we know are coming
Where's the plus video?
still editing, went HD hunting per viewers request and checking out the new alt recipes
we want more, we want more!😅
He quit when he saw tier 5 hehhehe just joking
Lol would you blame me if I did.
