Battery Factory
The Aeronautical Engineering milestone introduces the Battery production line. Batteries are primarily used by drones as their fuel source and hence why you need to create a battery factory.
Left Click Macro
This video shows you how you can create a macro for your keyboard or mouse that will click the left mouse button very quickly to assist with spamming foundations. While you can certainly do this with mods, some people don't use mods or want to wait until the 1.0 release before trying mods. Also shown is a technique for placing foundations without the hologram rotating.
Chunky Pillars
Another aesthetic technique for the Pillar Middle foundation piece is creating chunky pillars, this video shows you how to easily master this technique.
Water Extractors Below
This video shows how you can place water extractors below your foundation platforms and how to connect the pipes with clean 90 degree bends.
No Cost Creative Mode
The No Cost Creative Mode is a debug flag in the game that allows you to build things without needing the required items in your inventory. Great for when creating tutorial content and it doesn't require you to use mods.
Top 30 Best Ways To Make Fuel
This article is about the Top 30 Best Ways To Make Fuel! Actually, there's only two ways but there's many variants of those ways. The purpose of this video and is to tell a story about how much building is required for each process and how much power each process creates, there are pros and cons to each solution.
Pillars For Conveyor Belts
One of my favourite aesthetic techniques is using the Pillar Middle foundation piece for running conveyor belts and pipes.
Aluminum Production Line
Unlocking the Bauxite Refinement milestone in the Hub allows you to use Bauxite to create Alumina based products, the end goal being Alclad Aluminum Sheet.
Color 101
The color gun allows you to paint lots of objects in the game, along with being able to set custom colors. In addition to this lights can have custom colors. All of this and more is explained in this three part video series.
100% Primed Power Start
This article shows you how to utilise a tripped power network to allow generators to become saturated before powering on.
Color Guide - Custom
Using the Color Gun allows you select from 16 custom color slots to paint objects in Satisfactory.
The first slot (upper left) is assigned to all new objects. Customising any color slot will update all objects painted with that color to the new color. Below is a library of colors chosen to match in-game colors like Water, Oil, Plastic etc.
See footer for notes on color.
Self Powered Drone Port
Drones in Update 4 are a great way to transport resources across the map. However what if you wanted to transport from a remote location that does not have any power?
Easy, just use packaged fuel delivered to a drone port at that location and you can unpack it and use it to power fuel generators which in turn will power the drone ports and miners/extractors/packagers.
This video shows you how to do exactly this from the new Impure Uranium node added to the top of the mountain at the highest point of the map.
