1 mk1 thresher can support at least 6 planters, I am running 24:1 with full upgrades and nmk2 threshers

So I've tried putting more planters and thresher 1 -> thresher 2 interchange always backs up on the kindlevine bundles or whatever. I have threshers situated so the 4x I/O are facing each other to try and up the throughput but idk.

Do you have filter inseters?

nova flume Jul 28, 2023, 8:56 PM

#

Using filter to split all the different products to their points

#

Should have specified!

#

I'll post pictures of a single version of the set up when I can get online

#

np, you need a build like this to be able to keep the threshers empty

many players didnt go the full biobrick route. somwhere around day three of EA the discussion was pretty heavy about just using the green plant matter stuff instead of going all the way up to bio bricks

smelting excess kindle extract into limestone isn't meant to be the most efficient way to craft the bricks. you end up needing an awful lot of that extract for other processes, just mine the limestone.

Use the extract for Atlantum Powder.

I have mines setup for limestone. I'm just offloading an overwhelming surplus of stuff that I can't do anything else with ATM

then progress to where you can?

#

the question was if it was efficient, it's not

#

End game is to use limestone infusion to create all ores, my factory is self suffiecent only using plant items as an input, I no longer have drills

until we can void, it's the life we have to live

Lol for sure. Thanks 🤘

#

I just didn't realize it was an endgame thing and I'm very much not at end game

#

personally it's the biomass that i always get stuck with too much of

#

Modders are working on a void chest & dev's have acknowledged it's a great QoL add, but you can balance everything to have no excess.

obtuse sigil Jul 28, 2023, 9:37 PM

#

i'm always struggiling to get the extract with the biomass clogging everything up

glad solstice Jul 28, 2023, 9:38 PM

#

BUT, if you want to burn excess fast, make machines and thresh them

glad solstice BUT, if you want to burn excess fast, make machines and thresh them

Okay, no problemo.

#

Thanks for the tips everyone

#

I get rid of plant matter excess threshing planters 😄

#

also burns down excess limestone

#

i cant make enough processor units because i cant make anymore plantmatter frames

#

not enough seeds to make them and seeds run through my system but doesnt get replenished
