Some factory patch notes
-UPDATED: I added some valves to the pipes to "guide" the water correctly into the factory. It was getting a bit backed up, but this fixed it.
-UPDATED: For the refineries, it seems my trick with the Mk3 belt on bottom and Mk4 belt on top might not work. It is true that the belt with higher volume will overflow first, but the "waterfall" method of feeding each overflow into the next line is messing with that priority. I've adjusted it so that each overflow splitter just feeds onto a seperate single line that goes into the container, and this is working. Will be shown in stream and updated in save file.
-FIXED: There were some Iron Rod machines not connected to power
-FIXED: A Reinforced Iron Plates output belt wasn't hooked up.
-FIXED: An elevator lift for the Iron Rods wasn't actually connected, but was placed facing the wrong direction.
No thanks. Shaving my balls isn't what I'd call a Man Thing..
That’s the most entertaining Manscaped ad I’ve ever seen on TH-cam 😅 ❤😂
With the way satisfactory works, it probably should have been an ad for Stihl or Husqvarna though.
NOTE - DO NOT REALLY TRY TO GET RID OF YOUR "BUSH" WITH A CHAINSAW. IT'S JUST A JOKE.
Yes
"I need to go organise my storage containers." 😂😂😂
Best ad ever! You had me literally lol'ing, not easy! 😁
Normally I skip them, this time I rewound to watch it again lol !
The Manscaped ad is NEXT LEVEL 😂😂😂 I laughed so hard
You can use the SEARCH BAR as a CALCULATOR?!
EDIT: You can paste FORMULAS into the MACHINES?!
This game.
amazing right playing it for 5 years it keeps amazing me.
I just had the same wtf moment 😅
time stamps?
41:02
@@jojojo9240 asked & answered, nice :)
41:36 I love the truck just getting airtime in the background
that manscaping ad was unexpected and hilarious. I like the stacked machines look with the platforms better than other designs I've seen with pillared machines hanging above them without some sort of "platform" for it to sit on. You can also pause the first 2 or 3 machines once they reach 100 ore to get the last machines to fill up quicker.
I wish we could like the video twice for the amount of efforts you put into each of these videos.
I like all Darren's videos twice!!! Sometimes four times!
But never three
I was NOT expecting this Manscaped ad LOL. Man, youre the best
Hi Darren. You placed a merger at 1:08:07, but its output is facing the wrong way, meaning the conveyor lift going from bottom to top isn't connected. Hope you can find it. It's on the top floor near the two stacked containers for reinforced iron plates and rotors. Hope this helps.
Don't let what people say effect what you want to do for a video! You make great content, and most of us here realize that. If you want to put a whole factory into 1 video, do it! Or if you like doing a general factory video and cosmetics on a stream later, do that!
Just wanted to tell you to do what you want, and don't let the comments drive it. I'd still think 63,000 people, that have already watched the video, would watch it regardless the length of it! Keep up the great work.
I appreciate that! and wow, didn't notice it had climbed so much in views!
That is how advertising should be done. Props to you and Manscaped
I think it would look really cool if you'd build some kind of glass and steel encasing for all the open belts. Really love the factory with the colors, it is refreshing to have a bit of more color variation every once in a while! Keep up the great work!
These stacked modules are great. A lot of the other blueprints are so specific to a particular build that I don't use them, but these are plug-and-play modules that fit in any factory.
Whatever your gameplay may be, the Manscaped ad got a like from me. It's a lot more effort than I'm used to seeing.
Thank you!
Darren once again showing all other Satisfactory channels how it's done! Your tremendous work in every single video is never unappreciated. Thank you for being so dedicated to helping me finally reach mid game!
I just wait and check every now and then whether you uploaded a new video or not...I never watch such full videos but I just love to watch your videos...just addicted to them.. Thank you so much for your hard work.
I came here for the satisfactory content, I subscribed because of the manscape commercial
This looks great, like the way you colour the foundations based on whats going there,
Little things like that help alot i find
OK normally I skip past sponsor bits, but I genuinely laughed at this one. Well done.
Thank you!
You do a level of planning and forethought I could never imagine doing. specially with being so precise in the belt work. that is actually just insane
Best manscaped ad ever 10/10 ❤
8:00 YOU CAN SEND OFF MULTIPLE MILESTONES!? why has no one ever told me of that
This is legit the best manscaped AD ever LOL
I’m just getting into satisfactory and this game is wayyy more in depth then I thought and it’s actually amazes me how guys like this are genius’s like dude is making a genius factory from formulas and is making it peak efficiency. And the fact you can use the search as a in game calculator and then paste your formulas in aswell amazes me that the devs thought of that. I applaud this dude and his very satisfying factory.
Great work, thanks Darren. It's nice to see the exposed belts!
I really like these long videos. You have a very calming way of talking about the game and everything you're doing. If it takes another day or two to upload the video I know it's becuase of the quality
Absolutely fantastic job on the video! love how you did the 480 belts using the smart splitter/merger/storage container LOVE that idea and will be using it on my 1.0 builds when it comes out that is! And just for some encouragement i think you are doing awesome man even though you have to put in tons of hours to get a 90 min video. In the end your content is still top notch as far as a tutorial even for the experienced players. Cheers and keep up the great work!
The minecraft music in the background around 6minutes
I use a fly mod for this reason. Some may call it cheating, but it's my save my rules. It's so nice
was watching the video, you could have just used the belts to cap the output for the screws, each block feed by a mk2 belt to extract 120 from the main bus. Working with belt speed is useful now and then
Oh yeah good point, I often forget that
Darren that ad had me in STITCHES mate. Manscaped should pay you extra for the effort you put in.
Thank You for sharing the save file and bp, mind-blowing factory!
Awesome! Thanks Darren!
OMG... your Manscaped add had me rolling!!!
HI, Daren, great video as usual, but as fellow FICSIT employee i think you made a mistake in your layout (i did similar mistake at one of my starter factories as well). You will never get 231.4286 leftover ingots/min, but only about 187, and once line containers are full you should see some idle time on central line refineries.
The problem is - mergers try to take input as even as possible from each belt.
Here's some math:
- each line container takes 260 ingots/min on bottom belt, so that leaves only 220 i/m for upper one. Placing a merger with one "production" belt and one "overflow" belt means that it will try to take 110 i/m from each belt (if it can).
- for the first merger (on central line) it's not a problem as it only receives 77 i/m from "overflow" belt, so it will take 143 i/m from "production". But that also means that second "overflow" belt will get 297 - 143 = 154 i/m.
- the second merger (on the last line) will get 297 i/m from "production" belt and 154 i/m from "overflow" belft, but it will only try to take 110 from each (since it can!) That means that once central line container is full, the second "overflow" belt will start to clog at rate of 44 ingots/min and the final "overflow" belt will only produce 187 i/m and not 231 as you expect.
The solution is really simple in your case - just put mergers BEFORE the smart splitters, as you have enough "belt cap" there.
Ahhhhh, they changed this game so much since i play played! Love your organization and knowledge. It is satisfactory 👀
Thanks for the great content and thanks for being you man.
Hi, WhatDarrenPlays. I love this Satisfactory series. Just got back into the game because I saw these videoes. I appreciate all the things you publish to us for free.
And your factories look alot better than mine lmao 🤣
At the end of the video after everything was powered up you had some constructors that either were u powered or no recipe. I can never remember which is which. Not sure if you got those or not
It was power! Fixed!
1:19:50 *25 minute logistics section*
Another amazing build @Darren. Can't wait for the stream
campo viejo is my fav wine! ill spot it anywhere!
Great video as always. It always blows my mind how much time and effort and thought you put into your content. Such a treasure of a you tube channel.
Would love to see this modular build style for copper, steel, etc and their products. Modularity allows building at scale and having organized factories.
Me watchint videos for insight and ideas of sorts also me when sees a neat looking solution gets mad that didn't think of it myself. 46:10
using steel beams for power connection...
Great work as always! And impressive ad lol.
I appreciate these videos man!
When it comes to the rods, how your back 2 lines are just for storage, what if you changed the last splitter on the main production lines to smart splitters set for overflow, then those manifolds would completely fill faster before filling the storage lines?
neverseen your videos before, saw the manscaped ad, instant sub. fucking incredible lmao
I mean, you can help mitigate the sloshing with a Buffer and some Valves, but otherwise, wonderful build~
Hands down the best ad I've seen in a long time 😂
You and your girlfriend should do more together!
Love ur vids
Tidying your factory whilst you tidy your downstairs. Well played on the manscaped sponsorship
1:06:33 is it possible to use a smart splitter at the beginning of the ingot line to redirect overflow towards the last two blocks of rod machines? That way overflow from all three sets of machines flows into the last two sets
Hell nah, not organizing your storage containers?!?. instead grab the weed cutters and help me make some biofuel. i'll share!
i love the music man (its aria math from minecraft)
i like your interesting take on the belt management but just curious why that you wouldnt smart splitter from the mark 3 belt into the above mark 4 filling it before the storage container and overflowing the remainder into a merger line at the base level
Darrens out here making ads that I'll actually watch, someone get this man more sponsors
For the conveyor overflow "waterfall" design, wouldn't it make sense to put the mergers before the smart splitters? I feel like it would resolve the priority issue since itll be merged onto a line that hasn't been split yet. Just a thought, would probably only work with less volume or higher belt speeds
Yep, top comment is updated with that!
@@WhatDarrenPlays Oh awesome! I just found this series as my first playthrough of Satisfactory and I'm learning so much! I didn't quite understand the update in the top comment so this was more of a test of my knowledge now
I decided to buy the game and start playing thanks to your videos, that says a lot about how good this series has been. Good job, must have been terrible work, but you're doing great
this is my fav series (i decided to make a satisfactory update 8 world and it didnt save (i spent 8 hours on it))
Can't you use smart splitters to merge everything from one set of machines into the line of the other set of machines and then merge all the overflows from those smart splitters to have whatever is left over?
I really need to learn to build up haha
Love this series! But I have a question (not exactly related to your new factory): how to you enable this checklist you always use on the right side of the screen?
Press tab to open inventory. Move your mouse to the right edge of the screen. A vignette (black shadow) appears. Click it. This opens your to-do list. Hover over the [?] to see the formatting of text to highlight/bold etc.
@@WhatDarrenPlays awesome! I didn’t know that it allowed to do checkboxes and stuff. Thanks!!
That smart splitter logic is so interesting, Amazing video as always, cant wait to reach this factory in my play along save :D
Edit: Just read your comment that it doesn't work, that is unfortunate
Yeah, the priority thing still works, but the waterfall method of feeding one line to the next doesnt. It messes with the priority if you merge a new line into the top belt basically. So because of that the splitters can all remain in place, the mergers are removed and instead put on their own dedicated overflow belt just above the others. A shame, but not too bad of a rework.
That makes sense ❤️
Kibitz literally planned everything at the beginning of the season (s4) to completing the game
“Patrick-”
“WHAT?!??”
“Where…are you going?”
“…I have to reorganize some storage containers.”
bro you are so good
never had issues with the "pulsing" of refineries, the internal buffer just pushes them out when the belt is free and are empty before the next "pulse" of ingots are ready so you get a continous flow
It would take a long time to write out and explain it here, but try it in game if you have time. Make these 9 refineries, send two belts into a container both with overflow splitters to carry away material if they get backed up. Even though they're sending 500+ ingots per minute toward the container, you'll find that the output belt of 480 will have gaps on it. This is because of the "pulse" of refineries will back up the belts at irregular times, causing both to stop momentarily, sending out overflow from both. It seems sometimes this causes a small hitch. I think it only happens because of the two belts, it wouldnt happen if it was just one.
@@WhatDarrenPlays but the container should (if there is stuff in there) give out 480/min ALWAYS and if the belts are "overflowing" then the container has contents... so if there are "holes" in the stream then it is a bug so if you can film that happening then you should report it so they can fix it because as long as there is something in there it should run full blast on the exit belt no matter if both belts IN are full or not even running
Yay, let's scrap that starter base! LET'S GO!!!
OWWW my OCD is killing me that you put those foundations on top of deposits....
Top tier ad!
Lmao I died at that advertisement 😂
you should try minecraft mod packs! i feel like itll be an entertaining series to watch
Man, feel so bummed right now.
Was going to build along with this factory, but I already have a modular frame factory on those nodes 🤭
What to do, what to do...
damn people have insane setups and haven't finished all the elevator things. Meanwhile I'm still basically sitting in beginner are trying to use all the nodes to the fullest. Also need to look at the TO-Do list more, confused on how it works.... didn't notice at 1st glance the way to do as yours.
Had to check that this wasnt the hub
I play since update 2 and didn’t know I can paste a formula there 😮
Love it
Dude's a genius
I don't get all the fuss around "perfectly balancing inputs" by using balancers all the way instead of manifolds. In the end, it ends up the same : the manifold will feed and saturate the first machines, then the next one, etc, up until everything is going full tilt.
Load balancing is faster, but requires more materials and space. Some manifolds can take hours to fill if the build is large enough. But I orefer manifolds generally.
@@WhatDarrenPlays But we're only talking about the factory starting/warming up. How many hours spent building balancers to prevent how many hours of warming up ? :D
mfg i loved that manscaped add lol
hey daren. not trying to be mean but with the smart splitter problem you had you could have just simply gotten rid of the bin and added a merger at the end with a smart splitter feeding 2 belts to the merger. one as over flow and one as top up, and as long as the belt has something behind it, it will flow into the merger without stalling.
nice factory
Any chance to get your Milanote board and template?
The Minecraft music in the background lmao I knew I heard it.
smooth
ahahaha, loved the ad
44:30
That’s a lot of math! 🤯
So weird watching you drive on the “wrong” side of the road. 😂
You should have just dumped all ur iron into steel. With steel rods and steel plates alt recipes you can create everything iron related from steel with a much higher yield as well as less power
Too much power required for the current stage of the game.
Pretty great vid except for your explanation of water and how Satisfactory handles liquid “inventory” and movement. Vertically raised pipes need to be full before they can transfer water, yes, but flat pipes can transfer water between themselves without being full, but if they’re not full they transfer slower because they have less “inventory to do so. You literally showed this when you looked at a refinery filling with water before the pipes prior were full.
Lol that mascaped add😂
Wouldn't the logistics of the refiners be easier if you underclock each refinery to outpu 60/m instead of 65/m? You just need 1 more refinery
No. It's by design that one belt moves faster than the others. I spoke about why in detail during the video. At the 25min mark for a couple mins.
In summary: sending in 290ish on the top belt, and 260 on the bottom belt means that only the top belt needs a smart splitter to break off all the overflow.
If both belts were equal in throughput, they would both stop/start as the container filled. This would require 2 overflow smart splitters, but, the issue then is that they may both send overflow at the same time, meaning you'll actually send less than 480 into the container in total. It's tricky to explain, but its what I observed.
@@WhatDarrenPlays i dont talk about that part. Underclock the refineries to 60/m, makes easier to handle belts. 8 refineries become 1 full belt 480/m, and the rest in a seperate belt to merge with the rest of the leftovers.
36:56 been waiting to say you have minors in your basement lol
😝
10/10 ad :)
I don’t think you did the conveyor combiners correctly. I think it’s going to back up the bottom line still because it doesn’t matter which line is being brought in once it’s back up it’s backed up and will take an input from either line. So your bottom belts will get backed up too. If you do a smart splitter on both lines with overflow going into a merger you should be good
Nope it works top line only! Though the problem I did end up having was merging each overflow into eachother.
I kept the single smart splitter ontop, but they all feed onto a seperate combined overflow belt now. Works just fine now, so basically the top line having a higher volume means the bottom line never backs up.
covers the land does few setups ok now a wall 9 pieces high
Me thinking how do you know how much... :/
I think I downloaded the wrong manscaped video
