After some offline exploration, I found a new type of ore called Caterium that gives us access to all manner of advanced electronics!

Today we demonstrate proper splitting and merging, computer and heavy modular frame manufacturing, and why you shouldn't jump off the edge of the world...

With the oil fields surveyed it is time to complete the next step of the process. (surprise surprise) Full automation!

With Project Assembly: Platform complete, it is time to move on to the next frontier. Drilling for oil!

After some fairly detailed work off camera, I am finally ready to build the Space Elevator's Framework.

After some fairly productive work off screen we set our sights back on coal, only this time... we are automating!

After charting out my goals, I realized that a lack of coal was going to prevent me from reaching them. So this time around we are going on an expedition!

In this episode Weems gets a little bit too excited about conveyer belts.

In this episode we return to the hub and try our hand at creating some components using the assembler.

After some hub cleanup we finally leave home! We explore the nearby area and find out that its tranquility should not be confused with friendliness.

With the space elevator up, I turn down the intensity a bit and start looking for ways to improve the output of our factory chains.

After a couple hour break to smelt lots of ore, I pressed record again. This time we set our sights on tier 1 hub upgrades and the space elevator.

Satisfactory Early Access is here! I cleared my schedule for the night, and armed with my knowledge from the Alpha, was able to make some serious progress.
