The building system in Satisfactory can be complex, which may frustrate some players, particularly those looking to enhance production after previously completing tasks. However, many players might not realize that they can utilize the blueprint feature to create these “factories” as presets. Additionally, players can find custom blueprints from content creators who design highly efficient mega factories, adding both functionality and aesthetic appeal to their bases. This guide will provide you with detailed instructions on where to download blueprints, locate the blueprint folders on your system, and how to successfully import them into your Satisfactory save files.
How to Download Blueprints from Creators in Satisfactory
To acquire blueprints from content creators, ensure they provide a shared link for downloading the blueprint files. Exercise caution when downloading and verify that the source is trustworthy before clicking on any links.
You’ll be looking for two types of blueprint files: those that end in .sbp and .sbpcfg. Ideally, you should prioritize the. sbp file, as it contains the complete blueprint. The. sbpcfg file only includes the details input by the creator for player understanding. This may encompass guides on the inputs and outputs of the blueprint, including associated icons and names.
Typically, blueprint factories do not specify the source of raw materials. Thus, creators include information regarding the quantity of raw resources required for the factory’s operation.
For instance, if a blueprint produces 20 Supercomputers per minute, it represents a massive factory that will demand specific quantities of raw materials, such as over 900 Iron Ores and 600 Copper Ores. The accompanying information should also guide you on input placement, which is generally straightforward.
If you’re struggling to locate blueprints, consider visiting the third-party website Satisfactory Blueprints for some remarkable designs. Additionally, you can explore the Steam discussions and community pages for more options.
Satisfactory Blueprints Folder Location
After downloading the blueprint files, you need to locate the Satisfactory blueprint folder to paste them inside. Open a file explorer and input the following path in the directory bar:
%LOCALAPPDATA%\FactoryGame\Saved\SaveGames\blueprints\
Inside this folder, you’ll find all your saved games organized into folders. Choose the folder corresponding to the save game you wish to use the new blueprints with and paste the. sbp and/or. sbpcfg files there.
If the folder does not appear, it indicates that you need to unlock and utilize the Blueprint Designer within the game. You must create and save your own blueprint first before the blueprints folder shows up. Generate any random blueprints and save your game. After doing this, try accessing the directory again.
This same directory applies for both multiplayer and hosted dedicated servers.
