silica is also a fluid so it makes no sense for quartz to be a solid

Guys I should feed DMR into a separate particle accelerator and craft DMC right?

liquids and gases are both fluids

fluid is a general term that includes liquids and gasses

so nitrogen is a watery gassy ore but not a solid, I understand now

unless you package it, then it's a solid but no longer an ore

The method requires a hoverpack for free movement, pre position power poles, and climb on a ladder into the water, drop off and tap space before you hit a surface, you'll hover instead of swim and can build, shoot or drink coffee at will.

# viral tendon I'm really motivated by my old world in which i've completed the game but uhh, i...

I 100% agree.

I tend to build quickly and somewhat messy to just get shit off the ground ASAP and will do a lot of AFK manual crafting to get past the first phase and start a coal plant.

Once you have coal, and a decent supply of iron plates, rods and concrete, then you can build some nicer stuff and destroy yoru starting stuff.

Explore for advanced parts (to either sink or use to unlock milestones early) -- AFK Manual Craft (or AFK let your factories run).

You can also use Advanced Settings temporarily to cheat your way forward... or find a save (or make one) where you've gotten past the boring stuff to use in the future as a "template" when starting anew.

or you can just go to your "old world" and either delete everything or just go to a different part of the map

you could probably start a save and dial it in like that with SCIM it would just take more effort

The Priority Power Switch is an improved variant of the Power Switch. It can be used to set which sections (named Circuit Break Priority) [1] of the power grid should shut off first, if a power trip is about to occur. Additionally, it allows other Priority Power Switches on the grid to be toggled remotely. (that's the difference

my power grid keeps on turning off even though power production is higher than max consumption, how do i check what is messing up the grid?

bronze atlas
#

if its turning off then its most likely something in the power production. Which form of power gen are you using?

solemn relic
#

coal production

bronze atlas
#

okay so step one make sure your coal belts are delivering enough coal/min to supply how much all your plants are burning/min

#

if that seems fine, then look at your water pumps, make sure they are doing the same and that it isnt set up in a way that they don't get enough water because of the pipe flow limits.

#

the standard ratio that most people use is i believe 8 coal plants to 3 water pumps.

thanks, one of my gens didnt have enough water

yeah best advice from my pov is to change up what you do in the game occasionally. Sometimes you can just go exploring and see what you find, sometimes i build transportation networks to connect different factories in better ways, sometimes i choose to build a specific item factory, sometimes i decide to upgrade an old factory to perform better. Sometimes i go hunting to build up alien dna for tickets.

i find trucks better than trains half the time cuz truck stations dont pause their input when theyre unloading/loading like train stations do

Q&A: Could custom music be added now we have Streamer Mode?
https://youtu.be/SRKB8VqLXdw

you might be right that there might be some some legality with copyright as to like if people add custom music to the game technically they're the ones who are breaking copyright not us so like we wouldn't be liable for anything but it might be like a show of good faith that we don't add that to the game

hey guys how's it going?

what do you recommend for heavy modular frames? i got a factory that produces around 40 modular frames per minute plus another 1175 iron per minute

#

do i go for iron pipes or get coal?

hard ivy
reef basin
marsh garnet
glad drum
#

yeah definitely encased

marsh garnet
#

without getting coal involved i get abt 10 heavy modular frames a minute out of almost 1800 ingots crazy

reef basin
#

if you get coal involved you can get way way more

#

iron alts are expensive

hard ivy
#

neither iron nor coal are particularly precious, so it doesn't really matter whether you go with default or iron pipe

glad drum
#

Man, it'd be so rad if there was a way to monitor efficiency across your factory at a centralized location... like naming a certain area of the power grid and if ANY of the machines aren't running at the designated % or above, it shows it as an icon on a display you've placed

hard ivy
marsh garnet
#

honestly i could get more if i cut back on modular frames, i produce 40 and i am only using 24

#

had a lot of reinforced plates laying around

#

i think for now since i am not even in phase 4 i am gonna stick to iron and go back and upgrade everything once i need them

should be allright hopefully

Generally it's because they try to centralize screw production using slow belts which are unsuited for it, and don't realize that that's the game's way of suggesting that you don't centralize them. :)

white dawn
#

Depending on what alt recipes you've got, then recipes which replace screws with something else might be more resource-efficient, so that's certainly a good reason to avoid them if you're doing that. Though IMO that's hardly worth hating them for. :)

hollow halo
#

All just to find out… you’ll never have enough screws

white dawn
#

But yeah, in general it's just because people try to make a bunch of them in one location and then try to shuffle them around a factory using only mk1 or mk2 belts, and yeah, of course that's gonna be a nightmare. :) Don't Do That, Then™, is what the game's trying to teach you in those cases. :)

reef basin
# bold heron why everyone hates screws ?

most people either repeat "screws suck" because they heard someone saying that (for no reason) or they build them in weird ways which causes them to have issues with them.

I personally found the game to get a little repetitive and boring after 125-150 hours. By the time u get to phase 4, you're burned out and in most zones, resources become a pain in the ass to get to and bring to your factory unless you're in the desert.

jetpack and hoverpack could use some major improvements, like making it last a lot longer. especially the hoverpack. you need powerlines near by to make it even useful. should be ran off a battery pack that's made to be charged every so often. Just a few things I have ran into that are annoying.

What to build (quick)

Merger after the Blenders
Merge both Blender outputs (total = 50 EUC/min).

Storage Container = “EUC Buffer”
Feed that merged belt into a Storage Container. This is the buffer.

Splitter to the Manufacturers
From the container’s output, place a Splitter and send 25 EUC/min to each of your two Fuel-Rod Manufacturers (Mk.1 belt is fine; Mk.2 if you like headroom).

(Optional) Smart Splitter overflow
Put a Smart Splitter right after the container:

Main output: → both Manufacturers

Overflow: → AWESOME Sink (prevents the line from backing up if the Manufacturers stop).

Some people use mods as a tool to solve their ingame problems.. Some use Pen&Papir as a tool.. Some use online tools, like SCIM or SF Tools..

But some folks here a rather sensitive on how others should play the game.

Sounds like a bug, in a way that normally when u die, it spawns a crate with your stuff.. And if that setting is on, it just auto transfers the stuff from crate to player when u respawn.

But as youre outside map limits the crate dont spawn, and cant transfer to you.

# hard ivy they should all just show up from the start

potential spoilers in a sense (I know people here complain about progression spoilers, but at least the game itself could keep it under wraps - the discovery aspect is amazing)

they should imo have a fairly blunt solution that any item you can craft or hold in your inventory gets added to the list, which just gets stored as an array in the save file

#

I should note that signs already spoil everything there is though

if they wanna gate stuff, maybe it should unlock based on whether you've ever held the item in your inv or not

#

I always wonder how are these checks implemented performance wise

#

it would be silly to check that every single time an item is picked up, but is there another way?

#

especially achievements, is the game checking every frame that your velocity is over 1400 or that you collided with a bean?

makes 10 with 1800 ingots

i think i could stretch it to 15 if didnt make 40 modular frames

# glad drum Is that if you're just wanting to conserve power?

Iron pipe makes steel pipes out of iron ingots. With a few other alts that use pipes instead of beams or w/e, you can make a lot of steel related stuff without actually making any steel ingots.

Idk how it works out power-wise, but not having to gather coal/oil for steel is often nice. Sure, it takes a lot of extra iron in exchange, but if the extra iron is easier to get than coal, I usually just skip steel.

Solid steel used to be really important because it's the cheapest way to make steel and steel was used a lot, but now it lost a lot of its importance thanks to iron pipe allowing you to bypass making steel entirely
