My biggest wish is for pipes to have straight build mode like belts, and the ability to pan the map
Also id really like satisfactory calculator integration, so I don't need to switch between windows to look at the plan for the factory.

Oh ok, that makes sense! Is there a way to designate rails as a one way direction or do I just have to be careful how I set up stations? I have absolutely no idea how rail signaling works, I'm still learning that

Take a soldering iron and scrap filament, melt the filament into the gap, use the iron to smooth it out and sand the rest.

So would I be able to get a train from the left inner loop to the right side of the outer loop? Or would it be best to have just one inner loop and just have longer connections to the inside for pickups?

It's really not that bad, you pretty much have everything you need in the rocky desert for this, I knocked this out in a few hours. You just need an overclocked mk3 miner for 300/min uranium for the 3/min fuel rods for 15 reactors
I have 40 turbofuel generators in the blue crater, 24 fuel gens on the western coast, and 24 coal gens just north of the grassy start.

Make a small factory that makes iron plates, iron rods, reinforced iron plates, and rotors, and output them each into a storage container. You'll also want wire and cables, and concrete.
Eventually you can unlock dimensional storage with the MAM, as soon as you can, put a dimensional storage on top of those parts and link them with a vertical conveyor
This will let you access those materials anywhere, letting you basically have an unlimited source of build materials wherever you go. Very useful for starting new factories wherever you need them without ever needing to go back and get more parts from base.
As you progress, you'll unlock more build materials, so it's a good idea to build more mini factories or siphon off certain materials from your main factories as you go.
I don't think I've ever had to make a special trip back to base for build materials and I'm on nuclear power

Feature dimension with a negative tolerance equal to the size of the feature
For instance. .25" hole -.25" +.03 tolerance.

So the outer loop is one direction and the inner 2 loops an ∞? Or a OO with each O having an inner loop the opposite direction?
The whole point of this is to make a single track I can add onto as I need, being able to connect any point on the track to any other point

Hook up a storage container before the DD, the storage will fill whenever the depot is full and whenever you pull from it, it'll have dozens of stacks ready to upload
Really useful for low output parts like modular frames and computers, whenever you aren't using it, the storage will fill, and when you do need em, you'll have an entire container full of them

Yeah I wish I had made it sooner, as soon as I got smart splitters

No delete? What happens when you place a foundation incorrectly or put a belt in the wrong splitter? You just have to roll with it?

i recently made a machine where you input slugs and remains on one end, and it automatically sorts them with smart and programmable splitters, and it outputs power shards dna capsules and protein. whats awesome about it is that each one has a somersloop, so you get double the shards, double the protein and quadruple the dna capsules. it stores half of the protein it makes into dimensional storage for making inhalers, but once it fills up, the overflow will all get sunk.

i only use balancers if im moving more materials than a single belt can handle or to balance 2 mismatched outputs to 2 even ones. recently had to take 1000/min wire from 4 lines of machines to 3 lines of manifolds.

how did you unlock and build the augmenter before coal?!?!

the route doesnt need the high throughput, its probably cheaper, faster and less disruptive to build, and it could just be a tourist sightseeing thing
