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 UA-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
Jeez don't encourage the advertisers man our lives are already FULL of ads...its really invasive...
@@jayrandolph9328it’s like 1 minute if your life… that you can skip 😂
@@jayrandolph9328 It's literally how he gets paid. Or he'd be working a 9-5 and we'd not have independent media to consume from creative people. (It was way too long however but watchable at least for the most part)
"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 !
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?

@@jojojo9240 asked & answered, nice :)
The Manscaped ad is NEXT LEVEL 😂😂😂 I laughed so hard
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.
41:36 I love the truck just getting airtime in the background
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.
I was NOT expecting this Manscaped ad LOL. Man, youre the best
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 absolutely hate copying people and not doing games blindly -
but I started watching you after getting deep into the game. and now it is fun to see your process, ideas and planning vs. how I approached the game blindly.
feels like this is an easy game to research and fall into the meta for- where as the real fun (for me) is discovery, mistakes and fixing + improving.
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!
OK normally I skip past sponsor bits, but I genuinely laughed at this one. Well done.
Thank you!
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!
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 really like putting a pipe down, deconstructing the front then adding a crossjoint with a down spout. if you down spout the next one you can attach the two lowers and do underground piping with stations quite easily with only little flow changes on flat ground (or pumps on the upper parts that look like gauges)
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!
This looks great, like the way you colour the foundations based on whats going there,
Little things like that help alot i find
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
I came here for the satisfactory content, I subscribed because of the manscape commercial
8:00 YOU CAN SEND OFF MULTIPLE MILESTONES!? why has no one ever told me of that
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
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!
Thank You for sharing the save file and bp, mind-blowing factory!
i love the music man (its aria math from minecraft)
OMG... your Manscaped add had me rolling!!!
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 🤣
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
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.
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.
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.
Thanks for the great content and thanks for being you man.
Awesome! Thanks Darren!
Another amazing build @Darren. Can't wait for the stream
Ahhhhh, they changed this game so much since i play played! Love your organization and knowledge. It is satisfactory 👀
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.
I appreciate these videos man!
“Patrick-”
“WHAT?!??”
“Where…are you going?”
“…I have to reorganize some storage containers.”
campo viejo is my fav wine! ill spot it anywhere!
Tidying your factory whilst you tidy your downstairs. Well played on the manscaped sponsorship
Great work as always! And impressive ad lol.
Hands down the best ad I've seen in a long time 😂
You and your girlfriend should do more together!
That is how advertising should be done. Props to you and Manscaped
Would love to see this modular build style for copper, steel, etc and their products. Modularity allows building at scale and having organized factories.
Hell nah, not organizing your storage containers?!?. instead grab the weed cutters and help me make some biofuel. i'll share!
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*
Darrens out here making ads that I'll actually watch, someone get this man more sponsors
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?
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
neverseen your videos before, saw the manscaped ad, instant sub. fucking incredible lmao
I play since update 2 and didn’t know I can paste a formula there 😮
Best manscaped ad ever 10/10 ❤
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
This is legit the best manscaped AD ever LOL
this is my fav series (i decided to make a satisfactory update 8 world and it didnt save (i spent 8 hours on it))
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...
Love ur vids
Yay, let's scrap that starter base! LET'S GO!!!
Wish I could build even half of this stuff 😂
Kibitz literally planned everything at the beginning of the season (s4) to completing the game
I really need to learn to build up haha
Had to check that this wasnt the hub
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
bro you are so good
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 ❤️
Dude's a genius
I mean, you can help mitigate the sloshing with a Buffer and some Valves, but otherwise, wonderful build~
ahahaha, loved the ad
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?
can you explain what you mean by the belt with more travel ? in the overflow part of refinery ? more travel from where to where ?
I’m sorry youd need to be more specific. Maybe add a timestamp if you remember where I said it. You can also download the save or look at the production plans for the build and it might help. Its all in the description.
@@WhatDarrenPlays Sorry :p so at 29:39 you explain that you found out that you only have to put the smart splitter on the mk4 way because "it travels more". I just want to know what do you mean by travel more and how do you identify that in order to replicate this logic maybe on oother factory later , because i found the idea brilliant to build this 480 constant flow with this kind of buffer; and wanted to understand it more in order to put it in my factories
Top tier ad!
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...
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
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!!
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
The Minecraft music in the background lmao I knew I heard it.
So weird watching you drive on the “wrong” side of the road. 😂
nice factory
Love it
That’s a lot of math! 🤯
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.
smooth
Any chance to get your Milanote board and template?
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
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.
you should try minecraft mod packs! i feel like itll be an entertaining series to watch
Lol that mascaped add😂
Darren that ad had me in STITCHES mate. Manscaped should pay you extra for the effort you put in.
If they ever add water having limits small pounds are cooked 😂
36:56 been waiting to say you have minors in your basement lol
😝
44:30
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.
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.
WOW
Lmao I died at that advertisement 😂
that has got to be the best manscaped ad ive ever seen
