The one thing every new player needs to know. Hold down E when harvesting leaves or wood, then tap Q. Close Q if needed but you will be auto harvesting until you hit E again. No more spam tapping E at the start.

This game has come such a long way since it was first released. Remember making conveyor towers to get items up or down? Ah, those were the days.

Holly molly, I've been running back and forth from my base to the power plant site just to grab another resources. Half of the map... So many wasted hours(

Thanks Mason, Helps A Lot!

Hello Jace

I think a usefull thing to notice is that you can align foundations to the grid of the map by holding ctrl while placing them

tip: when in doubt, handcraft.

satysfactory news - "Avoid backups" Me - mathing my whole factory to have backups on each stage with mutiple storage points between each stage. all designed to fully backed up.

In a majority of cases, that is the ideal way to play. But for some situations and some setups, a backup somewhere can cause the whole system to shut down. You just have to make sure you have failsafes if you're in that situation.

0:20 I thought I was weird for naming stations "pickup" and "dropoff", guess it's more common than I thought.

@@Miraihi my comment was more about transporting items by dismantling them from far away

Other basic tip for starters is not use fiscit foundation in the begining of the game, unlock the concrete foundation and you are good to go.

Your channel is amazing!

I agree!!!

lmao i have 12 hours on this game and i didnt know it had a map

I have 60 hours, and I learnt about stamps creating a pillar of light, the debuild box trick and the broken geometry of beams. I will contribute: - Always Be Automating - Plan factories around logistics before outputs i.e. "I have access to iron, copper, water and caterium in this area, what can I automate out of that?" rather than "I need to automate computers, where should I build that?"

You can plan factories for specific items too of course, I've just found it much more effective for logistics to build around resources first.

Great tips.
