#

so far it's SURPRISINGLY easy to make these cupronickel cables

opaque kestrel
#

but thats like late mv

#

/mid

limber raptor
#

congrats on hv, btw

opaque kestrel
#

ty

#

i plan on actually doing shit instead of just progressing

#

using this checklist for once

#

feels like ur missing smth

#

aside from 90% of it

limber raptor
#

wdym missing smth

opaque kestrel
#

space for ports n stuff

limber raptor
#

no i made sure i got the space for all the ports

opaque kestrel
#

i may not be able to count then

#

probs

opaque kestrel
#

4-fluid and item inputs n outputs
muffler
2 energy hatches
maintanence hatch

limber raptor
#

damn

#

i'll fix that when i get back on

#

rn i'm playing celeste

opaque kestrel
#

fr second time ive made an ebf and i forgot abt that

#

twice ✌️

limber raptor
#

this fucking dust

#

this fucking dust can eat my ass

opaque kestrel
#

(iirc) the dust is from rubies n stuff so like

#

make sure to get a good amount of rubies while ur at it

#

mv need chrome n stuff

#

so does hv

limber raptor
#

im too far deep into the alumino silicate dust hole to switch to mica

limber raptor
opaque kestrel
limber raptor
#

i do

opaque kestrel
#

💔

limber raptor
#

im stubborn

#

im not switching

opaque kestrel
#

u need it for kanthal later

#

p sure u cant use the dust

limber raptor
#

great then im saving it for that

opaque kestrel
#

or

#

or

#

or

#

or

#

u could just like

#

get to it

#

rn

limber raptor
#

nnnnope

#

blehhh

#

i like to complain

opaque kestrel
#

✌️

weak thunder
limber raptor
tiny sluice
#

getting mica just felt annoying

#

it feels more tedious than it actually is

limber raptor
#

now why is this not registering as working

#

i

#

am an idiot

#

those are dynamo hatches

#

not energy hatches

opaque kestrel
#

😭

opaque kestrel
#

invest in an rc boiler

#

or use ur current steam power to make light fuel

limber raptor
#

wdym light fuel

opaque kestrel
#

all u need is 1 distillery, 1 chem reactor, and 1 electrolyzer

#
  • oil
#

from the lil spouts around ur world

#

its gonna be way better than relying on steam for an ebf

#

same goes for mv stuff since mv is 4x the power cost of lv stuff (which u prob alr know)

#

that or benzene

limber raptor
#

well im gonna have to stop procrastinating oil sometime soon why not now

opaque kestrel
#

the mining pipes or whatev take

#

a good amount of steel

opaque kestrel
#

if u use steam u can get small batches

#

btw go to the twilight forest and get lead

#

potin pipes are like 2x better than bronze

opaque kestrel
#

its in the quest line next to the arc furnace

limber raptor
#

I NEED A SODERING IRON WHICH MEANS I HAVE TO GET A BATTERY WHICH MEANS I HAVE TO GET LITHIUM UUUGUGUUUUGHGHH

opaque kestrel
#

did u claim the ebf quest yet

limber raptor
#

i did

opaque kestrel
#

u can use the tape it gives

#

✌️

opaque kestrel
#

ur gonna need lead anyway soooo

#

get some for those potin pipes while ur at it

#

@limber raptor also upgrade ur solar boilers if u havent

limber raptor
#

already did

opaque kestrel
#

how much u got down

#

i may never know

limber raptor
#

oh yea

#

uhhh

#

3 advanced

limber raptor
#

there it is

#

all that for a soldering iron

opaque kestrel
#

smh

limber raptor
#

i am officially american

limber raptor
#

welp

#

god dammit

opaque kestrel
#

u still gotta process it bud

limber raptor
#

yea i did

#

dw

opaque kestrel
#

wrd

limber raptor
#

i have 30 cells of light fuel

opaque kestrel
#

w

#

should be enough for a while

#

maybe

opaque kestrel
#

invest in auto miner

#

u can get 1 in lv but its shit compared to mv

limber raptor
#

i've been dying to get one of those

opaque kestrel
#

yeah i’d just wait

#

ALSO

#

dont batch craft ur first mv circuits

#

just the first 2 for the circuit assembler

#

then u can batch craft if u do that

#

hand making them is 3:1 lv to mv circuits

#

in the machine its 2:1

#

uhh thats prob it

opaque kestrel
limber raptor
#

finally

#

done

limber raptor
#

holy shit

limber raptor
#

needed more steam for the phenolic circuit board recipe because these are EXPENSIVE

#

power expensive

#

i mean

opaque kestrel
#

pretty sure its the same cost

#

unless u mean the making of the boards

#

make like

#

a solid 40

limber raptor
limber raptor
#

this is the best day of my life

#

now just to get aluminium

#

yippee!!!

opaque kestrel
#

centrifuge rubies

limber raptor
#

and theyre both immediately gone

opaque kestrel
#

now make 3 more stacks

#

/1-2

#

once u get the mv fluid extractor u can use redstone alloy to make like

#

16 vacuum tubes at once

limber raptor
#

DAMN

#

i've been struggling with those too

#

bc of steel

opaque kestrel
#

mb all

#

u can use iron dust with oxygen

#

takes a bit tho

#

/didnt ig, wrought iron recipe is just faster and cheaper power wise

limber raptor
#

Wurrtrat's GTNH Second Diary to Stargate

limber raptor
#

made my workstation closer to my machines and made them bigger

#

i was putting this off for a whle but thank god i did it

opaque kestrel
#

30-50 block distance when i wanna go to my machines or cleanroom

limber raptor
#

pssh laaazyyyy

#

ok thats insane

opaque kestrel
#

i legit just have like

#

7 diamond chests

#

it’ll take at most 5 min

#

and i still havent done it

limber raptor
#

that must be a pain to sort through

#

those big of chests unsorted

opaque kestrel
#

the chest beside my tinkers crafting table is full of like

#

most components

#

the chest above my tinkers forge is just full of ingots

#

the rest is all a mess

opaque kestrel
#

yeah gonna move this for once

limber raptor
#

bro

#

thats painful

opaque kestrel
#

i still use my glider and i got a jetpack

#

and the piston boots ig

limber raptor
#

first mv machine, rn i'm just gonna swap the 2 machine types out before i get an mv way of power

#

hmm

#

so

#

that wont work

opaque kestrel
limber raptor
#

i had 4 generators so i thought id be fine

opaque kestrel
#

4lv amps->1mv amp

#

k u know that

#

cant just send it through a wire

#

until u get an mv gen you gotta use a transformer

limber raptor
#

got it ok

weak thunder
limber raptor
#

new mv setup

#

plus completely different floor to my little base guy

opaque kestrel
#

have u found a division sigil

#

and or wizard tower dungeon

#

(sigil usually in one of these)

#

(wizard tower)

limber raptor
#

i havent done much exploring

opaque kestrel
#

selling lowk

#

hunger axe is amazing

#

(need a division sigil for the unstable ingots, and an e-table to activate it)

opaque kestrel
#

at the cost of a lower mining level

limber raptor
#

got my extruder up i think this is really helpful maybe probably

limber raptor
#

yea

opaque kestrel
#

lets u make small gears for 1 ingot instead of 2/3

#

VERY usefull

#

also 2 rods from 1 ingot

limber raptor
#

god damn

#

yea thats amazing

#

woaw

opaque kestrel
#

indeed

limber raptor
#

now i have starT ratio rods

opaque kestrel
#

forgot if i said it but figure out oxygen

#

prob did

#

but ya

#

oxygen

limber raptor
opaque kestrel
#

imo sugar is great

#

25 cells of oxygen for 32

limber raptor
#

good thing i have a sugar cane farm going that has been doing absolutely nothing for a whole tier

opaque kestrel
#

lol

#

i have a sweed farm running (thaumcraft stuff) for mine

#

filled a supertank in like an hour

#

(4mil L)

limber raptor
#

hmmmm interesting

opaque kestrel
#

voiding water it makes (trash can) sending carbon and oxygen cells into a storage, cells into a super tank which auto extracts cells, then sends them back into the electrolyzer

#

takes like 2 conveyors 1 pump + sugar n stuff

#

very worth

limber raptor
#

very cool i shall look into it when i need oxygen

opaque kestrel
#

(basically need it for 90% of the ebf recipes ✌️)

#

iron to steel, stainless steel, solar grade silicon, other metals

limber raptor
#

oh shit yea steel

#

ok nvm thats on my todo list NOW

opaque kestrel
#

also diesel btw

#

get that ebf runnin properly yknow

#

also maybe a double ebf

opaque kestrel
#

if u can get the prospector

#

gonna be top of the mv quest book behind the emitter

#

better than the rod since it can scan multiple chunks for diff veins

#

and polyethylene

#

also another thing u need

#

also dont need to now but i'd recommend like 2-3 chemical baths when u need to make new coils cus shit is slow

#

prob enough yap

#

u got that

limber raptor
#

im currently having a brain anurysm on how to get a flawless emerald

#

i think im just gonna have to result in making a sifter with a metric fuckton of plants

#

ok so thats not gonna work

opaque kestrel
#

mining small ores

#

if u can get i think an exquisite thats like

#

2-3 flawless

#

or smth

#

uhh not sure of its hv locked but in the coin shop

limber raptor
opaque kestrel
#

hmm

#

check shop

#

if not then uhh

#

idk

limber raptor
#

alr

opaque kestrel
#

i lowkuenly just never did that

#

lol

#

skipped everything till i hit hv

limber raptor
#

fym you never did it you need it for an emitter

opaque kestrel
#

cus

#

rushed to hv

limber raptor
opaque kestrel
#

i invested in the hv onechadEat

limber raptor
#

thats fair

opaque kestrel
#

and i was broke asf

#

during mv

#

i got an hv miner and im still broke lmao

limber raptor
#

couldnt be me

opaque kestrel
opaque kestrel
#

it just takes a few steps

#

compressing->autoclave->assembler->ebf->assembler

limber raptor
#

ok yea but my problem is GETTING the plantballs

#

thats an insane amount of plants needed to be compressed

opaque kestrel
#

compressing

#

use rainforest oaks

#

they drop several stacks

limber raptor
#

got it

opaque kestrel
#

and wood ig

#

also stock up on some carbon mesh

#

u need like 24 item filters for ur cleanroom later

#

and they take a while

limber raptor
#

these fuckass trees are ugly asf

opaque kestrel
#

lol

#

hey

#

its basically free plantballs

limber raptor
#

YEA BUT

#

its soooooooo ugly

#

GT++ modmakers were too into tech they forgot how nature looked

limber raptor
#

this took

#

way too long

#

an insane amount of time, 2 machines made just for this thing

opaque kestrel
#

lol

#

allat for the hv one to be easier and better clueless

limber raptor
#

i love this extruder so much i want to merry it

limber raptor
#

i now have automatic oxygen going thanks to the amazing help of the wiki and wiki dev

#

currently working on changing all of my pipes to potin pipees

opaque kestrel
#

u can make it easily with 3 machines or automate it with like

#

a whole lot more

limber raptor
#

got it

opaque kestrel
#

only input is silicon (first chem reactor)

#

salt is elecrolyzed, chlorine into tank, sodium into last chem reactor, silicon mixes with chlorine, then mixes with sodium, both get sent out and salt back to elecrolyzer

opaque kestrel
limber raptor
#

very interesting

#

i will look into it

opaque kestrel
idle tundra
#

Thanks

limber raptor
#

update: im an idiot

#

i made mv combustion engines but no mv hatches

#

which i need to progress through mv more for

#

well whatever at least i still have them

#

i have successfully switched to diesel!

#

good god is this amazing fuel

#

surely there isn't any other fuel that can be better that i will have to switch to soon

limber raptor
#

yes im aware but i was also joking about benzene

opaque kestrel
limber raptor
opaque kestrel
limber raptor
#

oh cool

opaque kestrel
limber raptor
#

then how did 4A of lv even power it?????????????????????

opaque kestrel
#

4 gens runs it at an mv lvl

#

4 mv gens runs it at an hv lvl

limber raptor
#

oh no i dont care about hv right now

opaque kestrel
#

o

#

alr

#

yeah 2 prob works

opaque kestrel
#

it just costs alot more aluminum/stainless steel or whatev

#

speaking of stainless

#

would recommend at least a double ebf

limber raptor
#

making an ebf doesnt seem that bad now that i'm leveled up

#

sure i'll put it on my todo

opaque kestrel
#

u can always make a quad but

#

1.too much fuel

#
  1. lotta pollution
#
  1. lotta gens
limber raptor
#

i have pollution off

#

:3

opaque kestrel
#

so real

#

also i get the prospecting tool yet

#

u

limber raptor
#

nope

opaque kestrel
#

damn

#

if u ever do then try and find a large oil field

#

also like

#

start magic stuff

#

forgot it it was hv or mv locked but boots of the traveller are amazing

#

also manasteel tools have like

#

500k durability

limber raptor
#

i'm starting to feel like im in a kitchen with all of these machines and recipes i'm doing all at once

#

i'm doing stainless steel, managing the steam for my oxygen, ethylene all at once its very fun

opaque kestrel
#

a double ebf yet

limber raptor
#

no im not working on that yet

opaque kestrel
limber raptor
#

i just got stainless steel dude please stop telling me what to do

opaque kestrel
inland gulch
limber raptor
#

i dont know what t-search is

inland gulch
#

if u hover over something and press T, it will highlight it in-world

limber raptor
#

oh

inland gulch
#

absolute godsend pre-AE2

limber raptor
#

yea i know that thank god

limber raptor
inland gulch
#

it’s dope

limber raptor
#

i bet thats when things start getting super fun

inland gulch
#

yup, i'd really suggest looking through some stargate bases to get an idea of how much space you'll need. make sure every setup (processing lines, on-demand, etc) is infinitely expandable

limber raptor
#

got it thanks!!

#

i can look more through the gallery

inland gulch
#

good luck and have fun !

limber raptor
#

this thing takes a whole 5 circuits and i still made it in like 30 minutes

#

im so glad that all circuits and everything is so much easier to make

limber raptor
#

I've reached MV for my ebf

#

i'm super close to getting to hv all i need now is just the circuits

limber raptor
#

fucking

#

i wanted to see what a powder barrel was

limber raptor
limber raptor
#

this is like hour uhhhhhh 170 and i have HV circuits

#

lets freaking go

#

this game is just toooooo easy

#

as soon as i finished my 4th hv circuit it started thunderstorming

limber raptor
#

here we go again

#

look at that BEEEAAAAUTIFUL tag next to my name

limber raptor
#

HERE IT IS

#

MY FIRST HV MACHINE

#

wait no this is still mv

limber raptor
#

power has been completely eradicated as a problem there is no longer any reason for any other source of power

#

this is the ENDGAME power source guys right here

#

all the way up to MAX tier

limber raptor
limber raptor
#

i'm not sure why the quest book suggested i should get this immediately

#

but whatever
