Satisfactory now lets you create blueprints and play in peaceful modeThank goodness
Thank goodness
Satisfactorynow has game modes and blueprints as of Update 7, which is now available in the main Early Access release of the survival builder. If you’re a hardcore factory builder, these are a big deal: blueprints make it easy to replicate structure layouts quickly, and game modes let you make Satisfactory’s alien fauna harmless.
Here’s the new update video covering all the major features:

Game modes are likewise a relatively small feature with a huge impact. There are two new modes added in Update 7: Passive and Retaliating. “Passive” means that the creatures roaming Satisfactory’s alien world won’t attack the player under any circumstances. If you don’t like the guns and combat, and just want to focus on building your factory, this is for you. “Retaliating” means that the aliens will only attack if you attack them first, meaning you can still opt-in to combat when you feel like it, but won’t be hassled the rest of the time.
There are other new additions as outlined in thefull patch notes over on Steam.
Satisfactory developers Coffee Stain changed the cadence of their updates earlier this year to focus on the big remaining features required to get the game ready for a 1.0 release. Update 6 broughtrevamped exploration and combatin September though, so they’ve not slowed down much.
Satisfactory is also currently40% off on Steam.
