FAQ
Satisfactory — Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about Satisfactory calculators and strategies.
Q.What is the Miner Mk.3 output on a pure node?
A Miner Mk.3 on a pure resource node at 100% clock speed outputs 480 items/min. At max overclock (250%), output reaches 1,200/min, which exceeds a single Mk.5 conveyor belt (780/min) and requires splitting into two belts.
Q.What is the exact power formula for overclocking?
Power = BasePower × clockSpeed^1.321928. This exponent is the exact Unreal Engine constant (log₂(2.5)). A Miner Mk.3 at 250% costs 30 × 2.5^1.321928 ≈ 105.7 MW instead of the 75 MW you might expect from linear scaling.
Q.How many Coal Generators do I need for a full Mk.3 setup?
Each Coal Generator outputs 75 MW at 100% clock speed. A fully overclocked Miner Mk.3 requires ~105.7 MW. You need 2 Coal Generators (150 MW) to safely power one overclocked Mk.3, with ~44 MW of headroom.
Q.Which Update 1.2 changes affect factory planning?
Update 1.2 (June 2, 2026) introduced vehicle automation rework with fluid stations and trucks, dynamic weather, and Game Modes with resource node randomization. If you enabled node randomization, your node purities may differ from the default map — use our Miner Calculator to recalculate accordingly.
Q.What is the most efficient way to produce Computers?
The standard recipe requires: Circuit Board (25/min) + Cable (22.5/min) + Plastic (45/min) + Screw (130/min). The alternate "Crystal Computer" recipe uses Quartz Crystals instead of Screws, saving the Screw constructor chain. Our Production Planner compares both routes by raw resource input.
Q.How do I eliminate conveyor belt bottlenecks?
Mk.5 belts handle 780 items/min. A Miner Mk.3 on a pure node at 250% clock produces 1,200/min, requiring at minimum 2 parallel Mk.5 belts. Use our Miner Output Calculator — it flags conveyors automatically when output exceeds Mk.5 throughput.
