Tips

 * Some Coal nodes are blocked by boulders which can be detonated using a Nobelisk Detonator.
 * Most Coal nodes are near the water, except some at the Grass Fields and Dune Desert. It is advised to avoid these nodes when setting up Coal power.

Current issue
While Satisfactory Interactive Map shows there are 15 pure nodes, one of the pure node in Dune Desert is overlapping with another, effectively reduce the resource node count by 1. Thus, 780/min of Coal resources is lost.

History

 * Patch 0.3.4.9: Reverted to the old mesh as of 0.3.4.7, improved icon readability
 * Patch 0.3.4.7: New mesh and icon introduced
 * Patch 0.3: Fuel value was re-balanced to 300, from 270. The resulting burn time however was reduced due to increased Coal Generator power output.
 * Patch 0.2.1.19: New mesh and icon introduced
