I always wanted to try the summon build to go after the master where you need kills without attacking, but with 4 players summons just always feel under powered. Too many elite enemies.

I ended up playing 2 infusions for most scenarios. I would try to get a third one out later, but it just didn't always happen. I did invest in the element protection perk, as well as two different element generating items, so I was reliably able to use the elements I wanted when I wanted, as well as occasionally protecting my team from a nasty monster turn.

I think this video guides you through the steps needed.

Without wires!

Can't you fast travel to one of the other meditation points?

Quarth

I believe you have to leave and come back, so that the alarms aren't causing a lockdown.

Quarth

The industrial storage has two outputs, so I don't know why you would need another splitter.

The caves? They are layer on the map tool. https://satisfactory-calculator.com/

Does it space out even more if you rotate your phone?

If you press N you can search for details by item. It will list all the recipes you have for that item. I'm not aware of a way to just list alt recipes. So start by looking at Uranium Fuel Rods, then click on the inputs to jump around and look at what recipes you might have.

Quarth

Are you using the basic recipes? It sounds like now might be a good time to do some exploring!

Your up pipe won't get any water until the lower one is completely full and not accepting any more. In theory it could eventually work fine as is, assuming your lower pipe isn't using up the water as fast as you're adding it in.

The easiest fix is to dedicate a water line to each from the source.

Something worth trying is moving the split before the pump. Ensure the split is a horizontal split. Add pump to one side, then turn the pipe vertical after the pump. In theory the split will divide the water evenly, then the pump will add lift. Admittedly I've had issues with pipes and had to rework a lot.

Make sure your miner is outputting at least 120. (Maybe even let us know your node quality and tier of miner)

Check that your mk2 belts are packed with coal and there are no gaps between them.

Try to let the belts fill up and get a few in to each generator before you turn on the generators.

Check that your splits are in the exact same pattern as your guide.

If any of these isn't right, let us know and we can recommend a solution, but with what you've given us it's hard to know the specific issue.

One item I'm not clear on, do you have outside power for powering your miner? Usually you want enough power to turn on your miner and water supply without relying on the generators.

Quarth

Are the refineries staying on constantly over 5 minutes of watching them?

Try shutting off the packager until the generators are full, then turning it back on. Maybe priming all the storage will fix the issue.

Quarth

How are you splitting extractor 9? Two valves set to 60?

Quarth

It's a joke. The give away is that there's no water in that pipe.

Quarth

;)

Quarth

If you do less than 600 your last 2 or 3 machines won't stay on, but your first 3 will probably always have enough screws. If you do more than 600 your constructors making screws will shut off from time to time, but your assemblers will remain on consistently (assuming mk5 belts). If you do exactly 600, then it will take a little bit of time to fill the last few machines, but eventually the last two machines should even out and remain running.

​

As mentioned, over supplying and adding an overflow valve to a sink is an option, but sinking screws isn't exactly a high priority.

Quarth

I think it's 20 tickets for the recipe, then just 10 reinforced plates per truck.

Quarth

The direct spoilers are pretty light, but there is one or two things that could easily give away some of the Burrow's End story arc. It's not a direct thing, but the jump from "Well if A then B" is a pretty small jump.

Quarth

Did you notice that the small trees produce gifts and can connect to belts? Meaning that you are not expected to continue collecting falling gifts after you unlock the smaller trees. First automate the parts needed for more trees, then automate canes, then wreaths, and finally snow balls.

This has come up a few times. I'm never clear on if it's a bug or an easter egg, but there seems to have been a small chance of it happening every time you reload for a while now. I've only had it happen with the base ammo type.

Is this a new build? Are you able to get near it while it's connected to the grid? Ever since update 8 my big collection of power storage crashes my game when I get too close. I've had to route a hypertube around and avoid taking the train.

Quarth

Next up, clearing the thermal propulsion rocket stockpile?

Quarth

I have to warn you that you need to go slowly and save often with power storage right now. There is a bug with mass power storage that causes the game to crash.

I've lost access to one of my factories because I can't even WALK in that area without it crashing. Luckily it's an older factory and doesn't need any maintenance, but I can't ride my train past that segment, which is sometimes annoying.

Quarth

It sounds like what you are doing now is working for you, so there's no rush to change that. Just because she chose a different balance doesn't mean you have to. If you want to break in to the non-profit space full time, it sounds like your current organization might not have the space for you to do that. You will have better luck looking at other non-profits and leveraging your experience on a resume.

​

I do not recommend taking the MASSIVE pay cut that she is suggesting, just to then have to "prove yourself." That makes no sense. The 30 hours a week isn't proof that you understand the work?
