The pioneer is the player character in Satisfactory. The pioneer works for and is property of FICSIT Inc.[1]
Multiple pioneers can play together in multiplayer. Pioneers can both hurt (PVP) and revive E each other without the dead pioneer teleporting back to the HUB.
Points of view[]
The game is played from first-person unless driving a vehicle or traveling with the Hyper Tube, where the camera transitions to a third-person point of view.[2]
Body size[]
The standing pioneer has a hitbox size of about 0.8 m x 0.8 m x 1.8 m. While crouching, it is about 0.8 m x 0.8 m x 1.3 m. When sliding, the height is reduced to 0.8 m.

Trivia[]
- Pioneer automatically sits down when player disconnects. (Either in multiplayer mode, or single player, but was previously disconnected improperly).
- All the player controlled FICSIT pioneers are women.[4]
- The pioneer's e-mail address and presumably the employee number can be seen in the Codex: "employee.05192.83.3845.710.8.192b@ficsit.biz". In a multiplayer game, the email doesn't change.
- The pioneer will never become hungry as there is no hunger system in the game, food is instead used to regain health.
- It is possible that the pioneer's name is either Becky or Monica.[5]
- It is equally likely the pioneer's name or nickname is Bry based on the coffee cups that can be found in the HUB and Space Elevator.[6][7] (although this has not been confirmed).[8]
- In order to work at FICSIT Inc you must prove your dedication to the job. So all Pioneers have to legally change their name to "Pioneer".[9]
- When running ⇧ Shift, the normal running animation will sometimes be replaced with Naruto Run, which is only visible to other players.
- The warning shown after receiving damage reads "DAMAGE TO FICSIT PROPERTY DETECTED" when above 3 health segments, or "IMMINENT DESTRUCTION OF FICSIT PROPERTY DETECTED" when below.
- The Pioneer's age is not yet known.[10]
- On April 1, 2021, the April Fools Special Event was introduced. This event was repeated on April 1, 2022 and April 1, 2023. During all three events, the Pioneer's Head / Helmet appeared larger.
- The 'Clap' emote can be used to toggle the nearby Lights on and off.
History[]
- Patch 0.6.0.0: Added additional equipment slots: Head, Back, and Legs in addition to Body for a total of four
