This is one of the subtle underlying messages in Satisfactory. You're a pioneer from Ficsit landing on a lush, multi-biome planet there to exploit its mineral resources by building a massive chain of automated factories.

There aren't pollution mechanics. The mineral nodes don't deteriorate. The loss of ecology due to habitat exploitation is minimal, and yet the massive industrial parks where biome used to be explains it all.

kinda also factorio as the factory consumes all natural resources, turning forests, grasslands, deserts, oceans and even all natural wildlife into the same shade of gray topped with expansive machinery that robs the land of every last drop of ore and oil replacing it with pollution.

Satisfactory doesn't care, but Factorio makes it the point of the game.

Wipe out the native Flora and Fauna and cover the whole world in glorious concrete for a move speed buff.

Given all the mountains I'd go with a science district; probably looking at a +4 here, minimum.

Not bad, but imagine getting Lane Man to build a 16 lanes highway bordered on both sides by a 6 lanes stroad! 🤩

And not a single train rail!

There are busses though! They run on the even hours on odd days and odd hours on even days.

The ground is too uneven and difficult to work with, otherwise there probably already would be.

Okay coal mine time!

Let's go and build some roads and skyscrapers! ❤️🥰

I’m OOTL. What’s with all the “rule” posts?

[–] nebula42@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

Just following the rule.

It's a cultural thing from r/196 on reddit.

Doesn't seam to be a good place though. You would probably need to do Terra forming or figure out special solutions for these mountains. Not to mention that it's pretty hard to even get the resources up there

Nah fan, coal mine time. Place will soon be a giant hole ,<3
