Has the Dimensional Depot removed the importance of a Central Storage, if so, why?

@TylerR909 1 year ago

What they need to add next is a new middle node on the SAM tree where "Weapons and tools can reload directly from the cloud."

@ionicawa 1 year ago (edited)

I personally build Dimensional Depots at the factories where I produce the item, with a buffer storage attached and sinking the overflow. No need to centralize it, I almost never need to grab more than my Dimensional Storage provides.

@lurker782 1 year ago

Getting 2 dimension depots up right at the beginning of your playthrough for iron plates and concrete is huge and is game changing.

@ColinGrealy 1 year ago

If you’re exploring in the early game, the manual uploaded is a godsend. You can dump anything useful you find (spheres, sloops, slugs, even creature remains) into the dimensional storage and then when you inevitably get murdered by a giant poison spider halfway across the map, you still have all the good stuff you picked up.

@captainawesomenz 1 year ago

Depots for ammo is a must!
Never run out of ammo when exploring again!

@TheWerewolfJesus 10 months ago

I just accidentally uploaded a Ficsmas disk to the depot and now it's going to be in the list forever.

@mareknovotny5441 1 year ago

From my experience, upgrading upload speed one time is crucial, as 15 items per min can be real slow when you're building large factories. Then I upgrade the storage and then I go back to finish off upload speed.

@greenscorpeon3 1 year ago

A suggestion from me:
Always have a buffer storage bin before Dimensional Depo. (if the depo is on an overflow line from a smart splitter, still bin first then depo)
Reason for this is, if the production (or extra) of a resource is lower rate than the dimensional upload speed you might end up having the depo wait on the new items to be uploaded, whereas having the buffer bin will allow the depo to work at full capacity, at least until the bin is emptied.
Example: Upload speed 30 i/m, you are producing 20 i/m of iron plates from one constructor. If you didnt have the buffer bin, once you used all iron plates in your storage it will upload new ones at 30 i/m until the stack in the depos inventory runs out and then it will upload at only 20 i/m. If you did have the buffer bin it will continue uploading at 30 i/m (unless you are just constantly using so much that you run out of the entire bin worth of iron plates)

I think whether or not the DD completely replaces a central storage depends an awful lot on how big you build and how quickly. For a lot of YouTubers and Streamers who have built their career with Satisfactory, the DD alone is not enough. Most players don't build that large, nor that quickly, and the DD covers us just fine. I've run into the limit of what my DD setup can support (I have a buffer box and one uploader per part) a few times but I just switch to building a different part of the factory I'm working on for a few minutes to let it catch up.

Also, don't forget you can pre-emptively pull your DD supply of a part to your inventory to use it while the DD fills back up if you're expecting to exceed the capacity.

@MrMacavity 1 year ago

The dimensional depot felt so NICE trying out version 1.0 of the game. The ability to avoid having to go back to main base all the time feels very awesome. I kinda hope they add a few more stacks and speed-upgrades in future also.
Having a DDU for each of your usual build-items and consumables is a great quality of life feature once you unlock them.

@corncutter 1 year ago

I just put a depot upload on top of every storage container in my central storage. So it always refills automatically from my storage and that way I can still use my storage for bigger amounts and the depot fills up quickly when needed. I just had to upgrade my storage with a higher ceiling, placing the depot directly on the already existing containers and feeding everything in from the buffer with conveyor lifts fitting the maximum upload speed.

@IamHattman 1 year ago

And remember, if you're early game you can just stick a DD off the end of a storage box and manually stick a single stack of everything in. That way you can have everything before you have enough spheres to set up everything to be fully automated.

@Bvic3 1 year ago

You didn’t mention the simplest version: put the teleporter container on top of a T2 buffer container. Connect the upper output to the teleporter and use the bottom output for the next production.

You can put that 3x 4m stack in the middle of your factories. They take the same floor space as a normal container. Ultra compact and fast to build with a blueprint.

@0perator3rror 1 year ago

If they allowed us to connect a smart splitter directly to the depot and use the overflow option, it would allow us to set up a sushi style setup. If the item was full in the depo already, spit it out the overflow and back into a storage somewhere.

@TAiiNE 1 year ago

To run down: To unlock all the upgrades to the Dimensional Depot you will need a total of 97 Mercer Spheres, including 1,040 SAM Fluctuators. There are 298 total spheres in the world, this leaves 201 Dimensional Depot's that can be made. There are approx around 35 items in Satisfactory that most people store in item malls, items used for crafting machines, belts, etc, givertake items like screws, or ammo. With that there is an average of 5 Dimensional Depot's that can be hooked up to a single item to give you a total of 1200 items per min upload. That is only if you stick with five. Some items like concrete could be in higher demand, while others, say rotors could be less so. So you can juggle how many Dimensional Depot's are hooked to a single item based on your own demand for them. Like maybe you have fuel stored for your jetpack, a single 240 ipm upload would hold that over easily as there's no way you would be using that much up in a single min of buzzing around. (even spammed think the most you could use in a min is 5). That means more can be allocated to another item in higher demand, like what you are using for belts or pipes.

Personally. Instead of having a central area like an item mall to run items into the Dimensional Depot's, I've found it smoother to just include a Dimensional Depot at the factory of item production. So items that would normally be sunk or sent off on a train or drove to be dropped off at said item mall, could instead be stored on sight and in your inv right away. Keep a single storage bin before it so the depot instantly uploads items rather than waiting for them to be produced.

@Bioshyn 1 year ago

combined with a storage buffer surely is the best, since you always have immediate replenishment being uploaded once you use items from the depot

@MechMK1 1 year ago

The best thing about grabbing the Manual Depot Uploader early is the ability to grab and store items laying around crash sites, which you might use to open up other crash sites. So often I've just grabbed a Turbo Motor out of my inventory and opened up a crash site, while I was nowhere near being able to produce them myself.

@illbeback111 3 months ago

I have almost 80 h in this game and just realised, that its one stack of EACH item. I always thought it would be a set total amount of items. Oh boy this will make things a lot easier for me.

@kungfuhskull 1 year ago

8:00 I'd recommand to put a storage between the splitter und the dimensional depot, so your depot can always work at maximum, no matter how fast you producce one item. Else you are limited to one stack of items as buffer, which can be used up pretty quickly
