Beginner's Guide to FOUNDRY- 20 THINGS I wish I knew - Best Research, Build Patterns, Power Tips

I've spent nearly 30 hours playing the early access release of Foundry and these are the tips to get the most out of your foundry early access experience. Let me know in the comments if you want to see more foundry content!

Hey everyone! Thanks for watching my video. Let me know what you think of Foundry and if you would like to see more content on this new Factory Builder!

Hi Dekoba, I appreciate your coverage. Regardless of the Title. The way you present info is easy to understand and digest. I don’t have the time to give my Satisfactory save the love it deserves, so it’s nice getting to live vicariously through your vids. Thank you for all the hard work you put into these.

I've watched several instructional videos on this game and your video is by far the best I have seen. Thank you!

This game feels like Factorio meet Minecraft. Thx for the tips. Its clear, short and sweet!

I would say your main bus should be on the ground with no spaces. You raise everything you dont need to split off, split off what you need with a balancer, then set everything back down with what is split immediately going off to the left or right. This keeps things neat and orderly as well as giving you a better idea of shortages. It would be the same as how you make a main bus in factorio.

Love the video, especially with the Satisfactory soundtrack background music :) lol

I love the game so far and your tips here helped me on my journey. 😊

Important note about using boilers and steam turbines for power generation: Steam turbines do not directly provide power to the foundation they are on. Loaders don't work if the foundation they are on doesn't have power. If your steam turbine power generation setup is on a foundation isolated from the rest of your buildings, you'll need to drop a connected transformer on it to power the loaders feeding igneum to the boilers.

Great video man! ❤

I can't wait to try this game someday, you really make it look enjoyable!

[nodens]

Thanks for the video. I will keep these in mind. I am new to factory games, what is a bus? Are there any recommendations on videos I can watch to learn about them? Thanks

Question about automating biomass. It seems really slow! I did a test run and compared to just cutting trees down and building by hand I decided against automating it.
How many green houses did you setup? I was thinking a minimum of like 10 was what would be needed. Thoughts?

[emilesteenkamp]

Game is awesome. would love to see more vids on this

[yosemitedan]

Good stuff. Maybe the main thing I wish I had known was placement for the screens on machines. So many I had to climb around to get to set up. Easy fix but just an annoyance really. And going vertical. I hope they patch in some easier way to get a top down view on things earlier. By the time I got that first look I had messed up a lot of things. Satisfactory has spoiled me on viewing

[Xadoras]

Wow...8 Biomass burners :o I transitioned with only 2 :D

Only thing I didn't agree with was the double-spaced bus. When you get 15+ items it's too much space. Easier to just run a belt under (or over) the splitter like you would with an underground belt in Factorio.

[Evansgr]

water is super frustrating in the game. I have exactly the same boiler setup as you, but the pipe intake just doesn't pull up any water. Been trying for hours, and about to ask for a refund.

[titanuranus]

In the trailer you can build robots, how does that work?

[Rambrus]

I disagree on the 1 to 3 ratio. That is only true at the very early stages. As you deplet your ores, 3 miners wont fill a single belt.
I very much like the bus idea. I was struggling a little bit with space. The elevation system is a little bit clunky to use as of now.

[silvk]

wait, farming biomass and then buring it for power is net minus process, it cost more power than it produces

[Philtho]

lmao ive been doing loaders entirely wrong. i was splitting and joining to every smelter input/output so i had like 36 balancers across two mining locations. good grief. we really need blueprints and research queue.
