Basic Blueprints

[The Illusion]

I really think the game would be better if the devs provided blueprints of things you need to make. These wouldnt be the absolute best nor good looking. Basically just a brick to place down. These would be included in every new save under their own category. I know suggestions are supposed to go to the suggestion site, but I am posting here first to get a bunch more info so that I can post a better suggestion there.

I think this should include a blueprint for everything. Starting blueprints would be machines with conveyors and power poles. The next level would include train stuff (which to me is the most important kind). And maybe also include more specific builds, havnt actually built the second planner yet.

What would constitute as "everything" ?
Are you expecting them to just do a blueprint of a singular smelter with a powerpole and a splitter on the input and a merger on the output? Are you then gonna have one for each recipe?
Or will it be the maximum amount of stuff which would fit into the smallest blue print designer?

I'd be down if they wanna make like a blueprint tutorial, where they provide an example you can look at and see if it works when placing it.

But having a default blueprint and every machinetype would be very cluttered, and would take a lot of time for the devs to make.
You can just grab one of the many blueprint packs available online if you want to.

on satisfactory-calculator, you have 177 pages of blueprints, i.e. almost 3,500 bluprints.

And then the devs should also make saves of finished games available, so that all we have to do is watch them run idly ...

Those basic blueprints would make very little sense. How would they know what/how you want to build? If the devs would create blueprints for 'everything' they would eliminate like 50% of the whole game. People are lazy and especially new and/or casual players would basically only use pre-built stuff. At that point you might as well just watch a video of the game.

i dont know that sounds like not even playing the game anymore. Isnt it all about figure it out yourself? You place stuff down to see how/if it works and than you start optimize it as you like it.

Imagine taking someone else's blueprints, then your factory is not your own.

To me it sounds like you just dont want to play the game.
