Ready to elevate your Satisfactory experience? These 40+ tips span beginner to advanced strategies—perfect for refining your builds, boosting efficiency, and mastering the game’s deeper systems. Let’s dive in!
Building Efficiency Tips
- Align to the World Grid
Hold Control when placing foundations to snap them to the world grid—best used with 2m or 4m foundations. - Create Perfect 90° Belts
Line up your belt, step back two tiles, then set the connection to achieve clean 90-degree turns. - Snap to Buildables
Use Control to snap buildings and machines into perfect alignment. - Clean Vertical Pipes
Switch to Horizontal to Vertical mode for properly aligned pipe transitions. - Quick Build Style Switching
Press or hold R to toggle build modes (Default, Zoop, Vertical). Chain-build up to 10 items at once. - Mass Dismantle or Recolor
Use the multi-select keybind to quickly dismantle or recolor many items at once. - Adjust Pillar Angles
Hold Control and scroll your mouse wheel to angle pillars smoothly. - Cover Unused Wall Holes
Place color-matched signs to hide empty conveyor wall holes for a cleaner appearance.
Resource Gathering & Inventory Management
- Gather Leaves Efficiently
Hold E while running through foliage to auto-pickup without stopping. - Inventory Tips
- Right-click to split stacks.
- Hold Right-click to choose exact amounts.
- Shift + Left-click to transfer stacks.
- Ctrl + Left-click to transfer all of one item type.
- Search with the Scanner
Press N to search for any in-game item—or even use it for basic math. - Preview Container Contents
Hover with the deconstruction tool to view what’s inside without opening.
Automation & Power Tips
- Start Sinking Early
Connect unused ores or byproducts to an Awesome Sink to start earning coupons early. - Add Power Poles Without Rewiring
Click an existing power line’s endpoint while holding a new pole to insert it into the line seamlessly. - Use Trains for Power
Train tracks transmit power. Use them to power distant bases or fuel hoverpacks remotely. - Climb Fast with Stackables
Use stackable conveyor poles for makeshift elevators in the early game. - Crash Site Power
Use portable biomass burners and nearby leaves to temporarily power crash site unlocks.
Advanced Crafting & Construction
- Manual Crafting Automation
Press Spacebar to lock in crafting. Press again or exit the bench to stop. - Copy/Paste Recipes
Use Ctrl + C and Ctrl + V to transfer recipes between machines. - Duplicate Buildables
Use the middle mouse button to copy structures. (Recipes not included.) - Upgrade in Place
Upgrade belts, poles, and miners directly—no need to dismantle first. - Quick Wall Swaps
Hold Control to replace existing walls with new types (e.g., windowed or conveyor walls). - Customize with the Customizer
Set default colors and materials, or repaint entire builds to suit your theme.
Movement & Exploration Tips
- Slide-Jumping
Sprint, press C to slide, then jump for faster travel on flat or downhill terrain. - Fall Damage Tip
Full health lets you survive one big fall (dropping to half HP). Fall again without healing, and you’ll die. - Seek Crash Sites Early
Unlock alternate recipes like Cast Screws and Stitched Plates as soon as possible. - Get Inspired
Browse community builds and YouTube for new layout ideas and logistics tricks.
Bonus Tips
- Enjoy Your First Playthrough
Embrace chaos. Don’t over-optimize early—learn by doing and fix things later. - Avoid Clipping
Minimize overlap between buildables for smoother operation and fewer visual bugs. - Fix Z-Fighting
Use asphalt textures or signs to mask flickering surfaces where items overlap. - Use Alternate Recipes
Scan hard drives to unlock efficient recipes that simplify scaling production. - Watch Playlists and Streams
