#Wallsharing maintenance hatches

Its possible to wallshare maintenance hatches but it first you got to repair it twice, once for the bottom machine, then break a casing in the repaired machine to make it an invalid structure, while the unrepaired machine is still valid, wait a little bit, repair the maintenance hatch again, then place the casing back: the results are almost magic TooTroll

now put it in the middle

mild bear
#

it will work in the middle

#

but you'll have to do these steps 2 more times

#

i just showed what im using instead of the "limit of application"

#

ah i also forgot to mention they also share the same mufflers and energy hatch (2Amp one)

#

obviously same input and output too

I know this works great for auto maintenance, but how is this useful for normal maintenance hatches?

processing all the ores i had in the back for a while now lol

#

This can be useful for wallshared ebf/volcanus due to limited casing space

# mild bear its been running since i posted it constantly

That doesnt really answer my question. I was wondering why not just use 1 maintenance hatch per machine like normally, since it is usually the cheapest block anyway. Spartends already gave a reasonable suggestion, though i still think it is a stretch.

mild bear
#

i just did it so i could give them all a single input

#

thats all

#

if anything i was cheaping out on the input bus

hallow sequoia
#

Hmm

#

Oh, i see, you wanted all io on the same side, ok

mild bear
#

instead of making it a linked input bus or a subnet with stocking buses

#

yes

hallow sequoia
#

Got it

#

Makes sense now

#

So with auto taping hatch, you only need 1 in the middle?

unkempt storm
mild bear
#

Yes only one is needed

hybrid ether
#

Good to know

#

Thanks

marsh pier
#

Main reason why it's not recommended to wallshare

#

Cuz with t1 it's whatever cuz you get maintenance issues anyway even if you didn't use this cursed trick i found out

hybrid ether
#

yeah i decided to against that after i found out one of the multi doesn't always get fixed

#

you have to break the other one for it to fix it

marsh pier
#

Yeah

#

For some weird reason

#

T2 can be wallshared

hybrid ether
#

T2?

#

oh

#

T2 maintainence hatch

mild bear
#

one of them finally got problems after constantly running the whole time

Oh, thats unfortunate

#

I was hoping it could work if only 1 has problems

#

idk if anyone here mentioned it yet but tier 2 maintenance hatches can be wallshared without any trickery. downside of course being you need to feed them circuits and duct tape and shit

#

tier 3 maintenance hatches dont support it and I think its dumb that they dont

humble geyser
#

The lpt doesnt make any sense, you use more resources for extra casing, and the amount of casings on each machine remains the same, so it counts towards max amount of casings on every machine

mild bear
#

solely discovered by me and nobody else btw

#

@marsh pier isnt that right

marsh pier
#

yeah

#

Duct tape is not a permanent fix my sweet summer child

fair nova
mild bear
#

Unsure about other things but in NH

#

It's just a glorified toolbox

#

Although I heard here and there that duct tape lasts longer before maint issues occur

fair nova
#

Wired, so this looks like a change for NH maybe? In general ductape was introduced to remove the need of maint. Should have stayed if this was changed so when a maint hatch get's taped it's done for it's entire life.

mild bear
#

Other maintence hatches exist

fair nova
#

I see

jolly aurora
#

it just acts like every tool combined when it comes to maintenance

#

so you dont have to carry around every single tool to repair shit

#

the auto-taping maintenance hatch (tier 3 maintenance hatch) does permanently fix maintenance issues, but thats a pretty high tier block

torpid pike
#

can someone send me how to quard ebf's

#

theres just not enough room

#

even with sharing all busses and input hatch

hallow stirrup
#

The auto-taping one seems can't be wallshare

#

It can form, but after running a long time the issue still appear.

mild bear
#

@marsh pier my original idea ™️ is being challenged

marsh pier
#

lmao

#

anyway the tier 3 is known to be not being able to share

#

same as tier 1
