Found the problem

Seems my steel is stealing all the coal and stealing all my power

Shouldn't those 2 things have completely separate coal supplies that do not interact at all?

It’s two deposits here and they just share but sometimes they take more when I amp up the overdrive

You could use 2 mergers that go into a single merger

worthy python

Hmm like?

fallow kiln
#

merger that takes 3 inputs and merger that takes 2 inputs and merge those into another merger

quick hound

2 mergers that connect two belts into it, and a second that connects three. Then another merger that connects the two previous mergers into one line.

... I don't know what to pick between 2 alt recipes: Caterium Wire or Steel Rotor... Caterium Wire is insane for Quickwire production, but Steel Rotor can help me phase out Screws...
I'll probably get Caterium first and hope to reroll the Steel Rotor, but maaan, why both on the same HD? ;_;

dense violet
#

you're unever locked out of a recipe and there's more drives on the map than options

reef basin
#

(though my personal biased opinion is that steel rotor is extremely expensive and phasing out screws is kinda pointless)

dense violet
#

which is still useful as a resource swap, but is a bit niche

ivory bluff
#

My bad. French/English confusion.

young sentinel
#

what are some of the best videos on setting up trains

young sentinel
#

a rotor alt i mean

dense violet
#

.... eh... iron pipe

#

when there's so much coal next to iron I have no idea why it's so popular. It just chews through iron

#

and again, caterium wire is a bit niche, its not nearly as common as copper or iron for wire

young sentinel
#

it was a niche situation

ivory bluff
#

... Oh. Latest HD is giving me a choice between Heavy Encased Frame and Caterium Circuit Board.
Heavy Encased Frame it'll probably be.

rapid stirrup
#

I’m in tier 8, how should I approach building a train infrastructure across the world to transport resources? The main challenge I see is laying out all the rails on the terrain and it’ll be all very tiring and time consuming

dense violet
dense violet
#

zooping the foundations first helps plan the route avoiding future issues plus helps keep everything very neat. Can always delete after

I kind of want to have them suspended too but possibly higher so I can avoid the bumpiness of the terrain

how did you create the illuminated panels on the supports?

dense violet

I just bought a bunch of music from the awesome shop where do I get it?

So you use an unaligned foundation to anchor a rotated wall

Trains: For a global network around the world (I'm currently connecting the south of grass fields to my oil factory), two rails going in two different directions should be enough?

reef basin
#

well, more than two rails won't really work since trains always pick shortest path

ivory bluff
#

Will I need to try to "segments" the rails in order for several trains to engage the same rails? Granted with intersections it should be fine-ish.

ivory bluff
reef basin
#

so if you want more than two rails, you'd need basically two isolated grids

ivory bluff
reef basin
#

(and also, I wouldn't recommend "building a global network". Build one route at a time and let the network grow organically)

ivory bluff
#

At least rails are relatively cheap to make. That will definitely change how I approach the game once everything is set up.

... Fudge. I have a problem with my hypertube. It feels like a section isn't loading properly, thus I'm ejected midway.

Yes, it's a current bug, I have it too. You'll have to wait for the update.

Damn. Well, if it's fixed in 1.2, great, but my very long hypertube is kinda useless for now... Oh well, 1 week to wait.

# dense violet rebuild the area?

Already did. Multiple times. The section that goes wrong is different each time. It's like an entire section of the hypertube doesn't load properly and my character is then ejected (I checked: I can move through the hypertube like it wasn't there; waiting a few seconds and/or moving around eventually make it "reappear").

Ill give the planner a try

But now ima focus on discovering more

Phew.... OK. Rails and Hypertube reached Rhino peninsula. Now to connect those to oil.

Holy shit the green stinger behind the breakable rocks near the 4 bauxite nodes is jumpscare material

#

That got me good

ivory bluff
#

Crap... I didn't align my rails on the world grid. I can fix the latter portions but I'll forgo this one, this would take too long to fix (and I shouldn't let my OCD dictate how I enjoy the game)

normal orbit
#

world grid kinda sucks tho

reef basin
#

yeah, ignore WG

normal orbit
#

unless all you want is straight lines and 90 degree turns

#

but it looks kinda bad imo

reef basin
#

and even then you can just do custom grid

normal orbit
#

specially if doing train tracks, let those be your "grid", so whatever orientation you have when you get to the place you wanna build, use that.

#screenshots message

Can someone tell me if this is indeed the correct way to make a watertower so all pipes on the other side dont need pumps?

frozen ingot
#

before even looking i would not recommend making a water tower

#

yeah definitely don't do that @fierce matrix

fierce matrix
#

but i heard that was the good way to do it

frozen ingot
#

just pump water whereever it needs to go, you don't need to artificially pump it higher than it needs to go, it doesn't simplify

#

yeah sometimes what you hear ain't good 😄

#

i'm not sure why it seems to be popular honestly, except perhaps for the aesthetic cos who doesn't like a cool tall tower

fierce matrix
#

cuz from what i understand the purpose of a water tower is to "pressurize" the pipes so you dont need pumps on the other end of it

frozen ingot
#

i've never ever built one and i do just fine 😄

frozen ingot
fierce matrix
#

and i dont wanna bother with putting pumps on this pipeline

frozen ingot
#

you'll need even more pumps 😉 to get it up the tower

fierce matrix
frozen ingot
#

not sure where you're getting those numbers from

#

just pump the water where it needs to go

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

if you want to build a cool tower for the look of the thing, do that too 😄

fierce matrix
#

vs 3 pumps on that dinky little tower

frozen ingot
#

sounds like you're only thinking about consolidating the water for the tower?

frozen ingot
#

consolidate it, pump it, split it?

#

don't get me wrong though, play it the way you want - try the water tower method by all means. I've never tried it, but i do hear it works 🤣 i just don't think the logic behind it is sound

There are wrong ways to be correct.

You are correct that in a sandbox game where everything is possible including almost all routes to go for.

However, you are incorrect by simply telling them to find a way, while they simply can't (because if they could, they wouldn't ask the question).

You are basically telling them to not ask the question because answer is already there.

Answer is there for you. But it isn't for them.

This game is "way too sandbox" and at phase 3 can be overwhelming about what to do.

Cut'im some slack, go hug your mom. Moms are amazing. They deserve hugs.

This game is "way too sandbox" and at phase 3 can be overwhelming about what to do.
Which is why you try stuff out. You pick something and go with it. Will you make mistakes? Yes. But that's part of life.
And it's easier to learn that in a video game world where there is no consequence.
Being taught "always ask other people and just follow what they say, never think for yourself about what you want to do, never try something just for the sake of it"--- horrible thing to imprint into someone's mind.

Nobody teaching nobody to "constantly ask". They asked for once. And they are new into the server.

This game's Phase 3 is overwhelming to a "game design" flaw degree. This is whether you accept or not, does not change. It is a fact. And the proof that huge majority of player base not having "Phase 3 Completion" achivement proves that.

It is ok to ask questions. It is horrible to assume that someone is a goober that "will constantly ask questions from now on" because they asked what to do.

Have some hope in humanity. If he was hopeless, he would stop at phase 3. But he wants to go on, whether with help or not.

You telling him to "go find your way" is not making it better either so keep that in mind too.

Depots also do not remove planning. A HUB is a good place to store them. Or someone who wants to make them on other places, need to make more planning to use them.

In both cases, extra planning and care is needed especially if someone is decorating.

You choosing to not understand wifi storage being wifi is 🤷‍♂️

Someone needs to make additional items to feed the depot regardless, they still need to plan.

I am not.
How you get materials to a build location is now "oh look, no thought required because wifi."

The planning is there. This game ain't rocket science.

just block them, they are objectively wrong and will never reflect about it

I mean you can't take items out of the Dimensional Depot besides doing it manually in your inventory right? It doesn't seem like it takes out a lot of planning

i think they're a good addition, and I like that they're completely optional so you can ignore them if you want the extra challenge (and, frankly, tedium!)

earnest condor
#

Trucks, Trains, Drones. All capable of infinitely delivering building materials to a site with a little thought and planning.
But people never consider it and always "I have to walk all the way back?" Or "I have to carry this?"
And that lack of thought lead to constant complaining, which led to removal of thought entirely with the Depot.

mortal ginkgo

I mean, if he is listening to Cobalt, the most elitist person in this server, he is free to do so. Cattle will always call someone else pot and I will simply smile. He can listen to him for all I care.

The depot is not a replacement for trains at all

I enjoy devs getting paid more instead of being gouged for 30%?

mortal ginkgo
#

30% for such an insane service that nobody else provides.

This guy is... really something.

literally steam got sued for being a monopoly when they didnt do anything

mortal ginkgo
#

Well, technically it is a monopoly on good service. Kek.

raven grotto
#

do nothing and win lol

this is space capitalism

i got it on Epic cos that was my only option at the time 😛

#

first game i got on Epic in fact

mortal ginkgo
#

Its ok. Nobody is judging you.

Epic was always extremely wonky and stupid.

earnest condor
#

EPIC also let us play Updates 1 and 2.

Epic Store has always been stupidly bad designed and had bad performance.

frozen ingot
#

it was the style at the time! 🤣

earnest condor
#

I really want them to add Shop cosmetic for the old splitter and power pole models.

raven grotto

#

Its really not a walware. Its simply slopware.

leaden turret

#

remember the old manufacturer model?

mortal ginkgo
#

It was sloppy before slop was an actual term.

frozen ingot
#

i don't actually miss that one 🤣

ah*

mortal ginkgo

I mean cmon though. B O X

The main thing I miss whole-heartedly was the original, BETTER nuclear model.

leaden turret
mortal ginkgo
#

Its literally a box.

earnest condor
#

I think U3 changed it if not mistaken.

frozen ingot
#

ah i don't remember that i think, but seen it on the wiki. I've only just started attempting a nuclear power plant actually

earnest condor
#

Open air model was soooo good.

raven grotto
#

ok now that silica is being produced heavily and has a depot to go into

frozen ingot
#

yeah the old one had like a hole in it right

earnest condor
#

And I actually liked the output being on the opposite side of the input.

raven grotto
#

i think imma mercer sphere hunt get my upload speed up and start trying to build walls

#

wish me luck bc this is about to suck

earnest condor
#

Instead of everything being front.

frozen ingot
#

i mean the shape is supposed to be a cooling tower, right? so it doesn't really make sense 🤔

#

i enjoy exploring in this game

#

particularly by the time i get a jetpack

mortal ginkgo
#

I wish it was less vertical... a bit less.. not too much.

frozen ingot
#

yeah output on the opposite side of the input would probably be nice

#

Do you really need 120k copper bars to make 100 nuclear pasta?

earnest condor
#

The open air concept also sold the "FICSIT don't give no fucks about safety" atmosphere.

frozen ingot
#

for aesthetics as much as anything

frozen ingot
#

probably

#

it's a very copper intensive recipe

mortal ginkgo
frozen ingot
#

lends itself well to a few alt recipes

#

sometimes i wonder about doing a run with zero alt recipes for the challenge

raven grotto
#

hey how do i grab less than a stack when using dimensional depot in inventory (like when taking out and dont have manual put in

frozen ingot
#

but.. i don't think i'd enjoy it 😄
