The Satisfactory 1.2 experimental branch adds World Randomization options that shuffle the types and purities of resource nodes across the planet. This feature challenges experienced groups to abandon standard base layouts and adapt to unfamiliar logistical constraints. The total number of map deposits remains identical to the base game, but the resource distributions change based on the active world seed. World randomization requires a fresh server instance to initialize the shuffled map.
