Sandustry Automation & Factory Guides

Game overview

About Sandustry

Sandustry is an Early Access factory automation game from Lantto Games in which every pixel can behave as a physical resource. The official description centers on mining, mixing, processing, and destroying materials inside a fully destructible open world. A new factory begins with simple transport and grows into connected production chains using conveyor belts, filters, drones, pipes, pumps, lifts, and other machinery. Because materials react with heat, water, terrain, and one another, reliable automation depends on understanding both logistics and the environment around a build.

KoalaFun organizes Sandustry around the decisions players repeatedly make: how to start without rebuilding everything, how to separate mixed materials, how to move solids and fluids, how to diagnose a stalled chain, and when to explore for artifacts instead of expanding production. Exact recipes, rates, unlock conditions, and machine values may change during Early Access, so these launch guides avoid inventing numbers and clearly separate confirmed systems from layout advice. A Factory Planner and Production Chain Calculator are reserved for a future verified data set; they are not active tools yet.
