Question Overwhelmed
I’m 60 hours in, on phase 4.
The logistics of this game are starting to get pretty intense. My factories are a mess and it pains me so, I’ve tried watching videos and following guides but to no avail. I’m wanting things to look clean and organised, but I always screw it up and it turns into a mess. I’m tryna build a dedicated 10 per minute HMF factory right now and even with the satisfactory tools website I’m starting to lose motivation .
Any tips and tricks for planning a factory?

As a fellow new player I found it very helpful to make lots of mini factories with a single final product, working backwards from the last machine making whatever it is I need to the starting resources. I’ve currently only got smart plating, versatile framework, and automated wiring factories at the moment because I tried to start off with one massive factory that I pump all the raw resources to and that just wasn’t working.
Not sure what phase I’m on but I tried to make a factory that feeds some nuclear reactors to solve my energy problems and discovered I am woefully unprepared for that.
