u/Disastrous_Advice503

Need some advice please, we are in the uk
My gf is 20 but she has never been abroad, we really wanted to go to Spain this year but are having no luck getting her application complete....

She was in care from a baby living with her Aunt, her parents arn't the greatest...

We had to pay for both parents birth certificates, Dad's side is completely fine now- but the examiner wont pass the application because her mum changed her name in the 90s when she was a kid, meaning the birth certificate wont work without proof of the deed poll/ certificate from the solicitor?

now we know she has her birth certificate and a letter related to her deed poll with the solicitors name etc on it from 25 ish years ago.... as we a pic from her younger brother who lives there (in obvious place) but she is point blank refusing to give them or any info on the adoption saying she cant find them.

Is there any way to get a passport without having this proof, the lady at office did say there had been special circumstances but the examiner is persistent we need that document, and the application has almost expired
We have searched the GRO and can't find her on that, but i dont know if thats because its so long ago...

thanks in advance Edit: We think the solicitor who changed my gfs mums name originally is surprisingly still in business.. im going to give him a call tomorrow- but dont want the mother knowing as it as sister will be in shit for looking where she shouldnt- bit of an easier legal question but that wouldn't happen right?

SO i overhauled my blue crater factory

It now produces 750 rocket fuel from 600 crude oil (which is nuts, i was going to used 1200 crude per minute but considering im in phase 4 i think 750 enough.. for now)

But now i need to build 180 flippin fuel gens.. even with shards its like 100+ of them needed

Like is this normal? I dont usually see builds with just fuel gens everywhere?

am i going crazy?

haven't even used diluted fuel recipe and this still feels like a excessive amount of rocket fuel...

Hi Pioneers

So i just go to phase 4

i have 8000mw of power coming from tubro fuel plant in blue crater
my next job is aluminium, im thinking 100 sheets. 100 casings

After this is stored, i have finished my "starter" base and am starting phase 4..

but the planning of this next phase is.. overwhelming

I keep just going on exploration or tidying up an area instead of getting started on the actual goal of the game

i know how to use satisfactory tools, but im just looking for a guide on the numbers/ modular factories etc i need to be producing/building for phase 4

I need so many new things, super computers, turbo motors, and on and on it goes, and i just dont know how to "modularise" this into something tidy without resorting to a massive spaghetti mess

Anyone have any guidelines?

Like im guessing i want some standalone facilities producing like 100 computers, 100 heavy modular frames (i know big numbers this is just example), then split these between each facility that needs it.. for example 50 frames to be Fused frames in another factory, 40 frames towards adaptive control unit, 10 to storage.. etc

so other then heavy modular frames, and computers, what else would you build dedicated facilities for, before importing them in a new main base facility making/storing the phase 4 parts, turning them into finished elevator parts, then sending them to space elevator

My next plan is crystal things and aluminium in a joint factory, but after this i have no idea.

hi pioneers need some advice..

Im on a new world in 1.2, i have made all my starter factories .. just need to decorate them..

I have made a diagram of where im at lmao

my starter base makes all base materials (in very small qtys but enough for storage), except modular frames which it makes 20pm

Steel base is also small, its like 10 of each steel product - enough for now...

Oil is simple too, 2x pure nodes into 16 refineries making 220 plastic & 100 rubber some fuel getting burned off & some packaged fuel, simple stuffs

is connected with a big road bring the oil stuff to main base (though this isnt working as 1.2 trucks are driving me mad but i will fix it soon i hope, if not im going back to trains i guess)

so this is where im at, now im bit lost.. my next step was the build computer factory & HMF, im thinking somewhere between oil and main base near some copper, then shipping it all to storage in my starter factory

gonna aim for like 2 HMF & 10 computers but im not sure .. this should be enough to get me to tier 7 once i make the elevator parts..

right now my starter base has everything to make next parts, so im hesitant on automating them, might just use storage and put what i need into a manufacturer manually..

but the tier 7 space elevator parts have thrown me completely, like once i reach that i feel like it becomes so much to do...

What kind of factories should i start on once i have unlocked next phase? is it worth keep on building my starter factory and stretching what i have, or are the numbers im making just stupidly low for this?

if i do need to make some factories to mass produce things needed for next elevator, which should they be? an ideas of number i should be making of things to clear this phase

im guessing im gonna have to spread out abit and connect each factory via trains.. Would just love a list of what factories i should be aiming to make?

Hey all need some advice,

So ive just finished phase 5/6.. have everything up to aluminium in a messy spaghetti starter base im ready to say goodbye to and start fresh somewhere.. its all a conveyer mess but produces all the start materials into dimensional depots

But now I have no clue what to do .. I figure ill add aluminium to my messy base then move to middle of map.. but have no idea what factories I should be starting...

Is there any guides to the kinda numbers of everything I need to produce? There are so many different base materials that need making before I even start a huge factory for next phase.. if anyone has any good videos of how to expand now because im rly tempted to start over a clean factory and just keep expanding that ...
