Easy TRUCK STATION TRACTOR AUTOMATION GUIDE Satisfactory 1.0

Here is my PayPal-Account Donations are very welcome:

This video is my gameplay review of Satisfactory 1.0 Full Release Version. It guides in a mini tutorial through the let's Play playlist game. The video contains Tips And Tricks For Beginners And Veterans about Truck Stations And Tractor Automation

I'd also like to add that you would clean up the recording path by pressing the button in the truck UI to hide the path nodes. If you have multiple trucks running across your world intersecting paths, it becomes very chaotic very quickly.

[dr.bherrin]

FYI. You do not have to press F to load or unload while recording unless you have two stations close together.
Trucks will automatically use any truck station they cross paths with. But if you do have two stations close together, then pressing F to load/unload tells the truck which station it should use.

This was the exact tutorial I needed at the exact right time! Thank you for a short and concise video, good sir!

[DavidWMiller]

I was annoyed at the lack of a proper loop (i.e. the tractor not facing the direction it needs to go for the next trip at the end), but then was super surprised the thing actually reversed out and did a little spin to turn around, super clean.

[MatthewGillespiedj]

Yay for trucks! The underdog of transporting resources inside Satisfactory.

Thanks the recording a loop was what I was missing... Got it working now... Thanks.

[georgb]

Thank you very much. Beginner here so this comes in handy. Well done.

[lolwhatdoitypehere]

Thank you! I was missing a step and couldn't figure what I was doing wrong. Got it running :)

I first discovered your channel with the great ACS playthroughs. As always, your tutorials and advice are very good. I didn't know I could drive over the waypoints on the way back. I'm about to drive the tractor for the first time in 1.0 in the Dune Desert. Only other time I played around with a truck was in 0.8, and it did not go well. lol Thanks for all your work.

[LomyrilRydrallen]

Thanks for the guide! I am new to the game and I am not yet using trucks. Now that I have seen your guide I will probably have a few drive around. I am sure I can find something for them to do.

[tomhayes]

You can edit your path, change the time you wait at each station, remove markers along the path so and the macro will make its way between the two separate ones and make your markers show or be invisible

[DistracticusPrime]

Dunno why YT waited three months to suggest this to me. I was about to say it's about time the trucks got some love! I'm now going to check your list for more about the trucks. I like your style here: short enough, humble straightforward layouts unlike those over-engineered "lookitme!" builds, and still working on phase 2 when trucks are most valuable. I too like to keep my roads hugging the ground, where I can enjoy the scenery.

[maksphoto]

Thanks for the help. BTW, when you've recorded a path and activate the autopilot, it's fun to jump on top of the tractor and ride with it ^_^

[wnharo]

Thanks for the tutorial..silly me never thought that coal can be used as fuel for the trucks

[philippemalacher]

The tutorial is clear, and your diction is very understandable for a non-English speaker. However, it's unfortunate that you avoided and forgot the most important point: what to do when you're not transporting coal! Because then there's the problem of refueling your truck...

[calvin]

woOT! lol, I think you're the first to make one of these for 1.0! Just went looking and voila! Thank you sir!

[Necroscopehk]

Good information, well presented, as usual sir. I noticed that you did NOT hit the bird when you drove up to unload. What a nice guy!

I also follow my tractor after recording the pathing, but I jump on top and let it take me for a ride-along.

You can approach one of the triangles or pause icon and edit that specific waypoint, if you need that. There are reasons to delete waypoints, or change the time the tractor spends at a station.

[JacintoRayne]

I appreciate the effort, but this is step one. I need a further look at how to "fuel" multiple stations. Other than adding another station strictly for fuel, I have no idea. Unless there's a node nearby! GG's on the vid!

[JanDrake]

Thank you for the information on how to load a truck and automate it. When the tractor station is loading your truck, does it load it full? Can you tell the loader to fill the truck all the way. Another question, how much coal does it drop each time?

[petunia]

So if you are not transporting fuel like in the video, how and where do you get the fuel from or do you have to set up a truck station that runs fuel to another truck station to fuel other truck stations, and you should have mentioned that you need to place down both stations and have them powered up and set to load or unload before anything would work.
