[stable parrot]

how does peoples income report look? mine in wuling looks pretty shit. Anyone able to get like 1m a day?

[true nebula]

1 PAC, 1 subPAC in wuling (for current patch)

[drifting bramble]

they need to make an online repository of blueprints that can be accessed in game ngl

[rain schooner]

ill look again i guess

[reef crescent]

Helps make blueprints prettier. You can place them in front of the base ports so people can copy and paste easier.

[cloud mica]

Thanks

[twin siren]

Should I use HC batteries for the oupost trading or energy?

[true nebula]

you can make the protocol stash output what you want with it

[broken bear]

can only one planter sustain itself on a loop? but why does the ingame blueprint need two?

[true nebula]

if say you have like 3 different things going into it but you only want to store 2 and the other one is for passthrough

[drifting bramble]

makes sense

[oblique pendant]

once you get the weather station lvl 2 the missions give soemwhat ok rewards

[stable parrot]

mission rewards?

daiily missions?

[tall dawn]

Any recommendations on what to do endgame in Valley4? so many options and im lost 🙁

[rain schooner]

theres no bp that is just the entire thing? All the ones I look at are broken up into parts.

[stable parrot]

wrong region

[oblique pendant]

weather station rewards

[stable parrot]

ah

[opaque jackal]

Hello. i just unlock the last subPAC on Valley IV. is there a recommendation how much Battery blue and purple factory i need to make to keep it stable?

[true nebula]

(for valley plants)
seed: 1plant->2seed (need one planter to feed it back, one planter to turn seed into plant to use for somewhere else

[twin siren]

Should I use HC batteries for the oupost trading or energy?

[oblique pendant]

both

[twin siren]

Are there enough ressouce to build 2 HC production lines?

[true nebula]

yes

[oblique pendant]

3

[true nebula]

you can make 3 actually

[obtuse raven]

I think to get 1M it really depends on how well are your elastic goods are fairing today

[true nebula]

the classic 18/min HC, 18/min CapA valley endgame xd

[gentle sun]

it is. my lowest today is -14% 😭

[oblique pendant]

forgot the 24 buck c

[true nebula]

oh yeah the buck c

[tall dawn]

is that what most are doing?

[twin wave]

as long as you have all 100 friends then its easy

[twin siren]

? Do you know how much Ferrium/m you need for 1?

[true nebula]

yeah

[potent mantle]

just to double check, we only have 1 depot node in wuling right?

[true nebula]

1080

all of it

[plucky thunder]

How do i power my facilities in Wuling?

[gentle sun]

cant do anything if all elastic goods are at +20% (like my first 2 days in Wuling)

[oblique pendant]

y

[coarse scarab]

800k+ is nice

I had today 900k+

[twin wave]

you can, if others people are at +90 you can still make big bucks

[coarse scarab]

But probably could get more if i had higher level

[broken bear]

i tried it with only one and have the planter also output to somewhere and it still sustains itself

[true nebula]

picture? i wanna see

[gentle sun]

brother you cant buy from players. you can buy from your stock and sell to players

buying at +20% only to sell at +100% is shit

[broken bear]

here

[oblique pendant]

might as well if you hit the cap

[twin siren]

So is it recommended to place 1 line buck capsule A and 2-3 Purple HC batteries?

[coarse scarab]

You can buy from player

I bought -40% to sell +120%

[true nebula]

oh you have only 15/min output for that (instead of full belt of 30/min)

[obtuse raven]

You don't guys don't have some reserved to make origocrust, explosives and packed origocrust?

[gentle sun]

well then im gonna be richer

[lapis nexus]

is there a table on the max amount of materials you can get at max development level?

[true nebula]

i have like 500 explosives, it is enough

[obtuse raven]

The last thingy I am just betting it will be useful when we unlock new machines in Wuling

[coarse scarab]

I usually have low prices tho, only once had that situation

[oblique pendant]

you can have a line since you don't use those they cap out at some point

[round barn]

I made small Buck A because of bus corner limitation

[coarse scarab]

Dunno, i'm worried about my 2k not being enough in long run

[fervent stratus]

*Turn Power Plateau outpost into a literal Power Plant....

[true nebula]

i have not used a single explosive since getting onto wuling

[obtuse raven]

It is never enough

[true nebula]

you should totally just burn OOre there

[coarse scarab]

You have not found place to use it?

[true nebula]

nop

[coarse scarab]

That looks safe

[fervent stratus]

I am burning Originium lol

[coarse scarab]

Then you didnt look good enough i think

[oblique pendant]

how am i to commit domestic terrorism without those

[coarse scarab]

Pretty sure there is at least one spot

[drifting bramble]

endfield will reach end of service and you will still have those bombs

[true nebula]

you're a third of the way there to filling the depot! (of both valley and wuling lol)

[true nebula]

fair

[twin wave]

OMG this game supports f13-f24

[true nebula]

the waht now

why do you have those forbidden keys

[twin wave]

🤑

[oblique pendant]

• you use a few in this game mode

[twin wave]

keyboard

and mouse

[fervent goblet]

Quick q, what’s the maximum yield of oroginium ore you can get from all the mining spots of valley v at max quality

[true nebula]

i thought these were just a rumor lol

[obtuse raven]

I mean, it is fun to go out there and throw explosive without caring

[true nebula]

560 240 1080

[twin wave]

i dont have that

[true nebula]

o

[coarse scarab]

Ehh

[fervent goblet]

Dang that’s what I thought

[oblique pendant]

cinema

[fervent goblet]

Actual for me is same as your theoretical

[true nebula]

whoa

[plucky thunder]

Are there Amethyst mining spots in Wuling?

[true nebula]

no

[obtuse raven]

Noup

[true nebula]

well

not yet

but probably never

[plucky thunder]

How am i supposed to power my facilities there?

[true nebula]

lc wwuling battery

[twin cliff]

Rahhh med production line

i have 2 of these running rn

[true nebula]

or sc/hc valey battery ( you have ferrium and originiu mto work with )

OR you can just steal a bunch of hc batteries from valley

[obtuse raven]

Transfer some batteries there to start up your wuling battery factory

[indigo otter]

Anyone have efficient zipline routes they can share

[plucky thunder]

thats what im doing rn

[true nebula]

endminlogistics

[twin wave]

holy thats so long

[crimson inlet]

Best pic I ever took of my AIC

[bitter osprey]

i am riding the line haha

[twin cliff]

my goal was to keep it in the same width footprint as the depots made it so I could put it side by side

[oblique pendant]

red numbers are ok dw

[twin cliff]

that's why its so long lmao

[twin wave]

thats what who said

[true nebula]

me with my 52x12 3/min cap A BP

[twin wave]

ifykyk

[true nebula]

top ten dumb designs

[vapid dock]

how the heck do you get in this room

[true nebula]

bring bottles of liquid xiranite and spray it maybe?

its powerwashing time

[oblique pendant]

from the top

[vapid dock]

this is valley

[true nebula]

oh

good queston

[halcyon radish]

if i wanna make hc batteries in wuling what's the best thing to import from valley 4? just straight steel parts?

[twin cliff]

go back up to yvonne's office, exit out the main door, turn right

[vapid dock]

the top is also covered

[oblique pendant]

there's a hole

[vapid dock]

OH

[keen prairie]

donrt

[twin cliff]

broken glass panel

lmao

[halcyon radish]

what you mean don't

[keen prairie]

just dont make hc batteries in wuling

[twin wave]

MANN wtf, the game doesnt support f13-f24 it supports f13-f16 ???

[true nebula]

probably just ferrium ore, make sure you check the transfer weight of the item

[keen prairie]

if you dont want to use the wuling bats, manually transfer like 4k hc bats

[halcyon radish]

how long will that last me

give or take

[round barn]

I made 100% purity meth better than walter w----

[keen prairie]

with 2 thermal gens, like 2 days

[halcyon radish]

oh yeah i'll just do that then

[true nebula]

do some maths

(your amount) / (1.5 * how many banks running) = how many minutes it'll last

[daring bobcat]

if I just got the first depot bus, what shold I focus on producing?

[tribal crescent]

Should I

Looks like a pain to set up

Tbh

[warped granite]

Is there a second factory on Wuling?

[obtuse raven]

Ah, it feels so good to make something symmetrical

[true nebula]

well.. the right makes all the belts the same length ...

but youdont get to see the items moving , they just sorta disappear and appear on the other end

[halcyon radish]

looks sick. is that max efficiency?

[tribal crescent]

Do lengths actually matter

[true nebula]

not really, other than startup time

[daring bobcat]

anyone got me on this?

[tribal crescent]

Ye true

[obtuse raven]

Yep

[keen prairie]

use your metatransfer on ferium to cover for syringes

[halcyon radish]

noted

[tribal crescent]

Depot buses are just new input/output zones

[keen prairie]

while youre at it, manually transfer like 20k ferium

[tribal crescent]

You do whatever you need

[halcyon radish]

could i get the code for that perchance

[tribal crescent]

It's not like you are limited without them

[daring bobcat]

hm alright but should focus on completing the story developing the factory first?

[tribal crescent]

Oh hell yeah

Get to power plateau

Get sand leaf

[rain schooner]

can anyone recommend a High HC batt bp that is just one click and drop. All the ones Im looking at are in parts....not sure why

[daring bobcat]

kk story it is

[tribal crescent]

When you can make blue gear

You should

Purple gear too

Depending on your units

[crude pulsar]

so im testing 1 vs 2 planter output

technically 2 planter "should" run better right?

[twin wave]

im still using level 28 green gear at level 70

[tribal crescent]

1 seed machine can support 2 planter

Bro is truly patient

[crude pulsar]

but why is this only getting 30pm instead of the 60?

ive always been doing 1-1 since it's still a perp. machine

[oblique pendant]

cuz you're only storing a line of powder and not 2

[twin wave]

make two exit lines for the shredder

since it makes 2 at a time not 1

[crude pulsar]

oh

[tribal crescent]

[crude pulsar]

wait yeah that's true

[tribal crescent]

Is there a limit

[crude pulsar]

im dum lmao

[tribal crescent]

On conveyor belt

Like 1 product per second

[obtuse raven]

Here you go: EFO012I45ie2oi87eIOo

[crude pulsar]

2/s per node iirc?

[twin wave]

eu ?

[obtuse raven]

Yep

[twin wave]

thanks

[obtuse raven]

Yw

[slim warren]

hello i wanted help to make efficient starter wuling base and sub pac oupost blueprint . i dont have depot bus nor area expansion, can anyone share any guide ot blueprint

[proud flax]

is it possible to craft more sub pac outputs?

[worn spoke]

how do i get automatic transfer set up in wuling? im already lvl 12 regional in valley

[uncut spire]

is making wwuling battery or component eat more xiranite im at 60/m xiranite and it taking 90 xiranite to run both at once

[halcyon radish]

thank you goat. asia right?

[foggy arch]

Make sure u cancel ur current transfer and change the transfer to meta-storage/transfer

basically free resource to wuling

[halcyon radish]

wait no eu

that's tough

[twin wave]

why not make asia and eu have the same blueprints ?

[obtuse raven]

Oh, I am EU sadly,,,

[halcyon radish]

don't worry king, i will replicate it

[vocal monolith]

i spent 3 days optimizing Valley 4 only to find out it's a waste of time in Wuling 😭

[potent mantle]

how do i reach lvl 2

[spark mortar]

why is my orginium yield 520 instead of 540?

[autumn root]

Can anyone share me depot less wuling base for production of xeranite and few lc battery. Please help by sharing blueprint or video guide

[halcyon radish]

here it is: EFO017i8e1aOU4559O0Ai

[autumn root]

I got same thing but then I realised some mines where not linked u musing one mining spot

[fathom glade]

😄 full utilization!

[potent mantle]

how do i reach lvl 2?

[vocal monolith]

is amethyst used for anything in Wuling?

cryston?

[fathom glade]

no, but also idk if i found any amethyst nodes in wuling

[oblique pendant]

no more cryston

[tall echo]

Where's the yellow dust input for the left and right most blue cube maker?

[loud junco]

why is my theoretical data differs from my current data?

[vocal monolith]

sandleaf?

[autumn root]

Can anyone share me depot less wuling base for production of xeranite and few lc battery. Please help by sharing blueprint or video guide

[tall echo]

Ahh nvm I'm blind I just saw it. And yeah sandleaf

[oblique pendant]

about to block lill bro

[foggy arch]

Upgrade the station

[halcyon radish]

if it's manufactured goods, there's bottlenecking. if it's raw resource, it means your stock is maxed and you're yielding faster than you're using

[halcyon otter]

what does the protocol stash even do

[potent mantle]

where?

[warped granite]

is there a second base in wuling?

[wide dagger]

sends stuff back to the depot wirelessly so you don’t have to route your belts back to the pac

[spark mortar]

i checked everything tho

[foggy arch]

In wuling? Idk where should be on the right side of the map

[lyric ridge]

How do u guys do that😭💔

[halcyon otter]

so whats the point of protocol stash in this scenario

[loud junco]

ah ic ,thanks

[autumn root]

Are u level 11 for development area maybe that as well

[lyric ridge]

My factory always die uh

[fresh needle]

I wish for more boundary limit

[wide dagger]

it takes less space than having to route belts back to the depot loader or the pac

[potent mantle]

already upgraded

[plain girder]

Is there any reason to keep cryston component farm other than for purple gear?

[foggy arch]

Not that one

[potent mantle]

what does it look like?

[sharp moss]

Just asking how long does it usually take for a recycling station to give you max amount of materials

[halcyon otter]

hmm but the stuff i just shove the lanes or wut

[foggy arch]

Like a diamond of something check both of the zone

[oblique pendant]

they give you fixed amounts based on their lvl

[sharp moss]

No but like is it daily? or what

[oblique pendant]

daily

[sharp moss]

oh shit

Thanks for the response

[wide dagger]

it just sends stuff back to the depot wirelessly think of it as a teleporter for your outputs

[halcyon otter]

but if i care about just the battery being made i dont need it right?

[foggy arch]

Don’t even need the stash tbh

[fathom glade]

You get a total of 560 originium, 240 amethyst, and 1080 ferrium/min.
Full efficiency lines of Buck Capsule As consume sandleaf (regenerable) and a whopping 240 ferrium consumption /min.
you can put 3 buck capsule A production lines for 720 ferrium/min
Full efficiency lines of HC valley batteries consume sandleaf (regenerable), 180originium/min and 120 ferrium/min.
you can put 3 of these as well for 540 originium/min and 360 ferrium/min.
The amethyst can be put to work making canned citrome and buck capsule Cs.
Total production far exceeds valley bill consumption. Total production is about 70*60*(18-7.5+18)+ 10*4*60*6= 134,100 valley bills / hour.
Valley bill consumption per outpost is 110,964 valley bills/hour

[halcyon otter]

ok but i dont technically need right?

[uncut spire]

if i want to produce 6 xiranite component i need 2 gearing machine right?

[wide dagger]

oh wait yeah i didn’t see that it was connected to the sand stuff lmao

[marsh nimbus]

idk what do i do in this situation like ummm, i migh reconstruct all of this production later but i need to fix this iem overload probllem

[foggy arch]

Yeah

[wide dagger]

only if you need the extra sand beamed back to your depot

[midnight granite]

whats the difference in farming essence found in wuling and the one in valley

[marsh nimbus]

what do i even do to fix this ;-; (by i mean like extra storage space)

[cursive river]

how does manual transfer work in the game
or do i ACTUALLY have to tp between both areas and carry my stuff over

[halcyon radish]

your storage is full

you've made too much of whatever that is

[foggy arch]

Yes

[gritty anchor]

Is there a way to make the splitter not play favorites? It's giving one thermal bank 50 batteries and the other get 0

[fathom glade]

go to dijiang, ctrl+click on m&k allows you to do it faster

[halcyon radish]

the splitter alternates. give them equal 25 to start

[cursive river]

this shit is so ass 💔

[fathom glade]

splitters split by the base node.

[gritty anchor]

This mf does not alternate

[gritty anchor]

what?

[foggy arch]

Do u have a protocol stash by chance?

[oblique pendant]

just use dijiang

[gritty anchor]

yea?

[fathom glade]

one sec grabbing an example

[quartz socket]

Finally made Buck Capsule A full EFFICIENCY & smallest possible Build for it (its still big af 🥀)

[foggy arch]

So 2 thermal bank and a stash which will make ur second thermal bank not have any battery unless u put 50 inside

[midnight granite]

what batteries are u using

[fathom glade]

this for example would split it at almost the same time (ish)

[gritty anchor]

purple ones

[foggy arch]

Or put the thermal bank somewhere else like in power plateau or something

[severe surge]

I'm at a max expansion Sub PAC in Valley IV but it says "Placement is restricted"
What exactly does it mean and what does it want from me... PAC placement should also be at the right area from the blueprint maker

[oblique pendant]

doesn't matter if you saturate the line

[grand vault]

damn really have to return to that kind of producing

[fathom glade]

if line is saturated it wont matter (unless you have more thermal batteries than like, 20*)

[midnight granite]

unless ur producing so slow, i dont think purple batteries will expire by the time a belt transfer another battery, or maybe check ur splitter maybe wrong direction

[foggy arch]

1 battery is 40 second interval since u have a splitter to 3 output it will take 40 seconds to send another battery to the 2nd thermal bank which is why ur power fluctuates or one thermal not having any battery

[quartz socket]

If you run out of power and have no batteries, its gg

[fathom glade]

keep in mind each splitter will essentially halve your product carry speed, by adding nulls

[grand vault]

imagine 2 brats came to ur PC and delete ur sandleaf farming machines that cause a dramatic corruptions of sandleaf and screwed up the entire powerline

[fathom glade]

so your 0.5/s turns into 0.25/s

[twin siren]

How much Buckcapsule A/ HC Batteries production lines should I have? 3:3?

[fathom glade]

3:3

[twin siren]

thx

[fathom glade]

3:3 + 4 restorative Cs

that's the fully optimal generation

134,100 valley bills/hour

[twin siren]

Ah ok thx, so 3:3 and 4 Cs. ^^

[quartz socket]

Buck Capsule A needs 4 belts for max efficiency.

[severe surge]

Any help please?

[wise hinge]

am i misreading something or does "Metastorage" on god just create things out of thin air

[oblique pendant]

it does

[wise hinge]

holy shit

peak

[fathom glade]

is your subpac at the wrong spot?

you might be overlapping something...?

[quartz socket]

Prob a belt, usually always the case, or if u have loot on the ground.

[fathom glade]

or blueprint might be too long one way, causing your belt lines to spill over

[fading portal]

how many ferrium will a 18/min capsule A base comsume?

[fathom glade]

loot is also a possibility

[autumn mist]

my usage and yeild for an item is equal, but in theoretical its usage is higher and is red
what does this mean?

[fathom glade]

720

[severe surge]

Loot on the ground also counts?! Wtf... then that may be the problem then...

Thank you 😭

[fathom glade]

it is 240/min for full efficiency per efficient capsule A line

[fading portal]

alright

[midnight granite]

60/min per unloader

[fathom glade]

hm? I thought it was 30/unloader

it's limited by belt transfer speed

[midnight granite]

ah yeah

30

mb

[fathom glade]

all g

[midnight granite]

belt limit

[fathom glade]

out of curiosity

[cursive river]

what do i do on the awkward corner of the depot bus

[fathom glade]

do yall manually transfer like ferrium?

for wuling

[midnight granite]

no

[fathom glade]

game honestly gives you more than enough space to screw about

[wild bone]

Guys does anyone have blueprints for the purple gear and batteries?

[fathom glade]

my ferrium cannot keep up with the consumption since i'm making wuling batt+ yazhen sol

yazhen sol alone uses 120ferrium for time efficient production... with wuling only having 90/m ferr it's pretty rough

this is even after metastorage transfer (it goes from 90/m to 115/min, bleeding 5 ferr / min)

[midnight granite]

i dont think u need ferrium for battery

[halcyon radish]

am i ever gonna need to turn all of these on in valley 4

[fathom glade]

It's the yazhen sol

[unreal field]

I dont understand power output system in this game

[fathom glade]

it's mostly cos there's not much else to do since xeranite production is heavily limited

xiranite*

[midnight granite]

yeah

i produce all too

90/min

ferrium

[fathom glade]

yeah...

[midnight granite]

but i dont suffer any problem

[fathom glade]

i assume you have time inefficient yazhen sol/jincao sol line?

since fully efficient lines consume like, 120 ferr/min

[midnight granite]

yes by 1 unloader

i split 1 ferrium unloader

but its fine since i dont have to manually transfer

[fast cypress]

Need someone to help me out with blueprints/base building early/mid game (preferably ps5 so we can yap nd share screen)

Pls guys I'm not far enough to grab one of the blueprint sharing (waaay too far into endgame)

[midnight granite]

which is ridiculously more tiring

[fathom glade]

that's a smart play

I was thinking i could transfer like 20k

then come back in 3 days

seems too micromanagey

[midnight granite]

u could

even if ferrium hits 0

it shouldnt affect ur batteries

or any products

that could cause chain reaction

[fathom glade]

yeah, just the yazhen sol ye

or w/e wuling specific restorative

feels pretty ass to not be able to produce a lot in wuling

limited by natural resources and hard caps

[midnight granite]

u could overuse any product just not batteries

[worn spoke]

blueprint sharing is literally when you actually unlock all the basic stuff needed to have a good factory

its not even close to end game

[fast cypress]

I have sharing

[worn spoke]

Oh ur saying you cant find early game builds

?

[fast cypress]

Yes

[worn spoke]

check dm

[fast cypress]

I'm a bit past depot bus unlock

[halcyon otter]

what is the theoretical data mean?

[vapid minnow]

guys is there a way to fly or make long jumps or smtng?

[midnight granite]

i think it's ur yield and usage at 100% efficiency

[halcyon otter]

oh so basically it shows my current actual yield?

cause im currently scared to use more in case get cooked and no more

[worn spoke]

if ur using more than you have

it'll have a red number

[meager panther]

The yield for raw materials is always correct. The yield/usage for other products assumes all facilities are working constantly and are getting the resources they need

[tulip pewter]

I hope they add a way to increase the size of meta transfer

[halcyon otter]

oh ok i see thx

[midnight granite]

correct

theoretically

[candid oak]

Amethyst Ore is so heavy underutilized I decided to mass produce Citrus Can C instead of the higher tiers ones who use Ferrium...

[midnight granite]

if theoretical data has more yield than ur current data, it means facilities are clogged

[bleak frigate]

Is a facility made automatically shared randomly?

And if shared with friend list, that means those appear for them?

[modest inlet]

if i put a filter immediately after an output, does it tell the output to specifically put those there? does anyone know? how do i tell a facility to output only specific things to a certain port

[gritty anchor]

uh oh

[neat pier]

i just unlocked regioinal transfer, what is it usefull for?

[midnight granite]

uh i mean an output port only outputs 1

item

why'd u need a filter

[modest inlet]

i mean from a facility, not from the PAC

[midnight granite]

u need a splitter

filter thru the splitter

[modest inlet]

i can run different kinds of resources into the same facility but is there a way to control where the facility will output it?

[midnight granite]

converger -> splitter -> filter

[modest inlet]

can splitters be set to filter in a specific way?

[midnight granite]

ah

can u just show ur setup bro

[meager panther]

You can get any ratio that has a denominator that is factorizable using only 2 and 3

[crimson inlet]

I wish you can max out the graphics in camera mode, I wanna take good pics for the unofficial guide

[modest inlet]

this is all theoretical for now. i'm trying to figure out the most optimal factory and i've figured out that ideally i'd use the same facility multiple times to run different resources

[midnight granite]

that cant happen

[modest inlet]

yeah i assumed so but that would require heavily controlling the input

[midnight granite]

technically

unless u perfectly time the input materials, the facility will just clog with wrong recipe

[modest inlet]

it is with convergers feeding into the same belt. the problem is then sorting out what it feed

[meager panther]

There is a setup which does this in 1:2 ratio, you can look at how they do it
https://www.reddit.com/r/Endfield/comments/1qosom1/18m_capsule_a_18m_hc_battery_endgame_cn_build/#lightbox

[midnight granite]

this what u need?

there's no other filter than that

[modest inlet]

that only tells you if you've fucked up. the problem with a control port is that it doesnt have a way to vent out the wrong resource if its detected

[edgy burrow]

FINALLY my factory has officially grown the valley 4 one
I making 6 buck capsule A a min and almost double that of battery's!
But.... 𝙄 𝙉𝙀𝙀𝘿 𝙈𝙊𝙍𝙀 𝘽𝙇𝙐𝙀

that seems to be overly complex bro

[fluid fog]

560

[drifting venture]

does the mining rig MK2 yield more then the MK1 ?

[modest inlet]

its really not

[midnight granite]

it isnt

[old shale]

Is it normal to be on negative ferrium ore with just 5 unloaders and 120/min yield?

[edgy burrow]

𝙃𝙖𝙣𝙣𝙞𝙗𝙖𝙡? Is that you my general? You look.... Different

[midnight granite]

but we have so little facilities

[jolly brook]

Why is this happening?

[midnight granite]

to actually do what u want

[modest inlet]

they're stopping me from reusing the same facility multiple times 😭

[tulip pewter]

Each unloader is 30/min so yes

[midnight granite]

we live in modern times

[fading portal]

A single port like this uses 30 units per min right?

[modest inlet]

i'll look into this but this is going to take forever to decipher considering its still in chinese lmfao

[meager panther]

Ah I built it in my world, I can show you a screenshot of a setup

[daring bobcat]

How do I use the thermal bank?

[tulip pewter]

What I wouldn't give for faster conveyor belts

[midnight granite]

yes

[fading portal]

alright

[jolly brook]

I need help

[modest inlet]

would appreciate this yeah

[midnight granite]

connect the output port of packaging to the input port of thermal bank

[cursive river]

one of your conveyors MIGHT be stepping out of the yellow line

[autumn canopy]

isn't it because it overlaps over the line under

[modest inlet]

move it like one space over

[cursive river]

oh my god i hate picking up rare materials

[rancid blaze]

anyone have a layout for this one? I only have the last 3 weapons rec'd

[cursive river]

can we get a machine for this 💔

[twin wave]

what does this mean ?

[daring bobcat]

does that increase my available power?

[modest inlet]

aren't those craftable on the space ship?

[cursive river]

you get like one per day per seed

[midnight granite]

YES

[nova osprey]

go grab the other weapons, because they're really strong

[pale narwhal]

did yall just put anything on the severe energy alluvium things?

[drifting venture]

guys does the mining rig MK2 yield more then the MK1 ? or just the same amount

[cursive river]

same

[midnight granite]

same

[nova osprey]

just my blood sweat and tears

[daring bobcat]

kk still figuring things out on the third dsy lol

[midnight granite]

is there any difference in different farming spots of essence?

[drifting venture]

phew i don’t have to replace them 😝

[nova osprey]

yes, the sub stats and skill stat of the essences are different depending on location

[rancid blaze]

where do you get them, wuling?

[nova osprey]

yeah

[rancid blaze]

alright thanks

[meager panther]

This is one example. We use half a line of Originium and half a line of Amethys in the refining unit, then route the others back to storage

[fervent stratus]

I set them up like this, single conveyor into a 3 split

Take up more space but it is even split (You can double or triple it if you want to but.... RIP space)

[nova osprey]

wait protocol stashes work as unloaders?

[halcyon radish]

true but i'm not at risk of running out of batteries anymore

[fervent stratus]

No

[nova osprey]

okay thought not

[fiery sedge]

i may be dumb BUT does "regional placement limit on certain facilities" literally just means I have to progress further into the story before I can place anymore facilities?

[weak mural]

when do we unlock sub AIC in wuling?

[fervent stratus]

It only work as storage to output into conveyor (Storage Mode, put conveyor at the output side and then put stuffs in). It can't take from Depot

[halcyon radish]

right at the end of current story

[meager panther]

No I just was out of depot space so I used as example. You have to manually load them up

[modest inlet]

thank you kindly

[nova osprey]

if you're talking about the forge of the sky, you have a limit of 1 when you start. You get your second through research

[mellow musk]

Wanna ask is it better to go for yanzen syringe or jincao drink?

[nova osprey]

doesn't matter

[fiery sedge]

i see, ty

[lone sapphire]

This works, i think, i just need to lean how to space them properly

[nova osprey]

i like yazhen because i like using it though

[restive sky]

Are buck capsules A really more profitable than B? I feel like they take much longer to make + take up more space

[nova osprey]

so choose whichever you like using

[prisma hound]

giving them homelessness by forcing them to buy all the meds

[nova osprey]

they're more profitable 100%

[fiery sedge]

yea ig i shouldve mentioned wuling directly lol

[restive sky]

Okkk, got it. Thank you!

[nova osprey]

in fact A capsules are more profitable than HC batteries

they're the most profitable item

[pale narwhal]

does anybody have a setup for the severe energy alluvium in wuling?

[nova osprey]

but you're limited on inputs, so 3 of each HC and A meds is the way to go

[prisma hound]

Buck capsule A takes A LOT less space overall to sell

[meager panther]

They are equally profitable, as in they are nondominated (math moment)

[lapis nexus]

can anyone tell me what reconstruction hq wants

[opaque jackal]

Hello. Which infinite plant is effecient one? The one with 2 Planter and 1 Seeder or the 1 Planter and 1 Seeder or both are same?

[nova osprey]

non dominated?

[meager panther]

You can't say which is better than the other mathematically

[fervent stratus]

It should be? Is there any buildup or it's just even input and output?

[midnight granite]

too much belts bro u can do this

[prisma hound]

first one has 1:1 input, the other one has 1:2 input
first one is infinitely better lol (only exception is those water plants)

[nova osprey]

you actually can in terms of the minerals used

and power consumption

[pale narwhal]

does anybody have a setup for the severe energy alluvium in wuling?

[nova osprey]

in relation to the power output of an HC battery

[halcyon radish]

one planter one seed gets bottlenecked instantly

[restive sky]

Ohh so 3 lines making HC for power and everthing else buck capsule A is the way to go?

[fervent stratus]

I did 1 seeder + 2 planter (It will keep the conveyor busy despite the loop)

[lapis nexus]

isnt the first thermal bank getting too much battery

[nova osprey]

A meds are ever so slightly more efficient than HC

[lone sapphire]

Foranyone who has an engineering degree on making factories, is this good enough
(I know if you say about space efficiency, im learning about it rn)

[silver hamlet]

are purple batteries more efficient material wise compared to the blue ones im running out of ferrium

[nova osprey]

yes

[midnight granite]

just an example, i dont use that

[prisma hound]

u should only make battery factories if u are planning to raise level for the HQ

otherwise once u reach max there's genuinely no benefit to giving them "favourite" materials as profit margin stays the same in max level

[midnight granite]

also its fine if its getting too much battery it means ur producing fine

[opaque jackal]

Alright thanks for the suggestion guys.

[fervent stratus]

They take up less production space to make the same amount of power

[nova osprey]

looks good, put a protocol stash to take two lines from the right one and one line from the left one

[fluid fog]

better to put batteries in Depot for better storage efficient, and only use additonal thermal bank if you need more power.

[nova osprey]

eh what do you mean

[modest blade]

is there any BP best for lvl 43 in Valley IV guys?

[pale narwhal]

does anybody have a setup for the severe energy alluvium in wuling?

[prisma hound]

those batteries runs on 10:15 or 2:3 ratio, its better to give them 2 amethyst dust 3 orig dust to consistently fuel 3 generators

[lone sapphire]

Yeah i need thermal banks badly

[meager panther]

The Buck Capsule A gives a value to ferrium if it is the abundant resource. If Ferrium is abundant, then HC battery gives Originium its value. There is no other value system with which you can compare HC battery and Buck Capsule A because they use different materials. Essentially we know how much ferrium is worth to us because of Buck Capsule A, and we know how much Originium is worth to us because of HC battery. It is circular to try to define one as more valuable than the other

[fervent stratus]

This is overkill but I have one

[prisma hound]

when u sell stuff to outpost, selling items with the thumbs up give u extra xp on an area, it does not grant any bonus profit margin lol

[nova osprey]

fair

[nova osprey]

i know that, but why is battery only good when you're trying increase outpost level

[midnight granite]

why settle for less

i produce and sell both capsule a and hc

[fervent stratus]

This one is more reasonable tbh

[lone sapphire]

Connected to the packaging unit

[potent mantle]

any good towers to recommend for tower defend?

[lone sapphire]

I haven't made SC baterries yet

[fervent stratus]

Later on? DEFINITELY Surge for mobs

[daring bobcat]

the difference between the hc batteries and lc ones?

[nova osprey]

yes, also i saw your layout improperly, take one line each from the packaging units to the protocol stash

[potent mantle]

is that the name of the tower? gonna check on it

[midnight granite]

wuling towers and sentry

[potent mantle]

give me names

[midnight granite]

he and marsh

[nova osprey]

that will give you backup batteries and it wont interfere with your power

[midnight granite]

he and marsh works hand-to-hand

[fervent stratus]

Surge is the one that cause lightning chain

[lone sapphire]

Alrighty

[potent mantle]

both are good? i cant just no brainer spam 1 of it?

[midnight granite]

just dont put too much in a single area

[potent mantle]

but which is the best to spam?

[prisma hound]

more "bonus" given per trade basicly (it varies tho cause theres an outpost that favour med)

[midnight granite]

in my experience, u have to spread them. putting them in a single area does actually make them less efficient in killing

[nova osprey]

do they give prosperity bonuses?

[prisma hound]

ye

[nova osprey]

never noticed tbh

ah

i see

[midnight granite]

both are good always put 1 he and 1 marsh together

[nova knot]

Is there any way to get above 60 Xiranite per minute? or is the 2x skyforge limit just completely gutting that?

[nova osprey]

60 is cap for current patch

[potent mantle]

no i meant i cant just focus on 1 tower type? like what is the best

[midnight granite]

its the limit

[nova knot]

So cant run batteries + components at full speed ;_;

[nova osprey]

gotta make the sacrifice sadly

[prisma hound]

o, then ye thats a good ratio

[midnight granite]

no u have to use both, marsh is good for slowing enemies and he is good for grouped mobs which the marsh sets up

[fervent stratus]

They got different roles

[nova knot]

TBH I already have 4k+ components sitting around from overnight with my first shitty prod

[midnight granite]

u have to put sentry always

[prisma hound]

different roles when i simply place 20 million stun towers

[fervent stratus]

Surge is good for mobs cause decent damage and multi-target

[nova knot]

So I think I am just putting components at half speed and calling it

[lone sapphire]

What's a good ratio of SC

[prisma hound]

2:3

[next garden]

why cant i connect these

[potent mantle]

sad

[prisma hound]

just divide by 5

[alpine jungle]

If i want to produce blue or green batts should i just use the bp that the game provides me?

[nova knot]

You are trying to connect out to out it looks like, I think the in port is on the other side

[potent mantle]

so other than surge what should i mix with?

[prisma hound]

just focus on the best battery option u are given

[midnight granite]

sky forge has only 1 pipe port ?

[fervent stratus]

Just think of it like this:

• Put multi-target (Surge) or AoE (HE) and Slowing/Stunning for mobs
• Put high attack (Sentry or Point Defense) for strong mobs (Stunning/Slowing them is fine but you need to also kill them)

[alpine jungle]

I'm trying to level up my 2nd and 3rd outpost and they want blue and green bats before i can use better options

[craggy wedge]

what should I be looking for in terms of higher level factory design? ie: which materials should be manufactured en masse, and which should be manufactured only in the required quantities?

[fervent stratus]

I don't have slow or stun yet tho XD

[prisma hound]

if u see the thumbs up next to the mat it means they gain extra xp on them

[nova knot]

Somehow I thought that was the mixer lol - okay then no clue

[prisma hound]

it is frankly the best option to speed up xp lol

[midnight granite]

batteries, batteries, batteries

[alpine jungle]

yeah, but at lvl 1 they dont have more options

[midnight granite]

batteries are the most cost-effective items in the game, good for using and selling

[prisma hound]

deal with it

[fervent stratus]

Beside the basic need for meds, yes (Since batteries also sustain your power)

[daring bobcat]

how do find all the originium ore locations?

[midnight granite]

yep

[potent mantle]

sounds complicated

[fervent stratus]

Check map. You need to reveal the map for them to appear on the world map.

[meager panther]

Does the thumbs up item actually give more prosperity? The message below didn't change

[hidden elm]

is there a website to help with designing factories?

[craggy wedge]

sure, and I'm doing that, but that's not really answering my question. I'm asking about manufacturing intermediary materials broadly

[midnight granite]

no, just always put he and marsh together and sentry always before the core

[alpine jungle]

welp thank you for your time iguess

[prisma hound]

for early-mid game when u want to either get more power or level up 2 of the 3 outpost that gain bonus exp from selling those

but once u reach max outpost levle there's no point in producing more battery except gaining more power

as selling meds is more space-efficient (and it pays the same as batteries)

[fervent stratus]

You clear mobs first so high damage can kill big guys. Slowing buy time for HE and Surge to kill mobs.

[midnight granite]

i use blue battery and i sell purple battery, i never used purple

[potent mantle]

ya which tower, give me names

[midnight granite]

i'm fine with 4.2k energy

[fervent stratus]

That being said.... Sentry always target big guys in range first

[prisma hound]

🥀

[grand vault]

Time to reboot the power!

[potent mantle]

so i just spam sentry and surge tower?

[next garden]

out to out?

[midnight granite]

welp i just got what i need, 1m net income seems about right for me

[still garden]

chat max originium yield is supposed to be 540 right? any guesses as to why mine is 520?

[grand vault]

Yes!

[meager panther]

560 is max. Probably some of the old places you rigged got more nodes when your prosperity went up

[nova osprey]

it's 520

[modest inlet]

its gonna be crazy funny if the staff stalk this chat and decide to nerf batteries

[nova osprey]

wait 560 max?

[still garden]

i have no nodes left

[midnight granite]

nerfing batteries is gonna kill alot of people

[craggy wedge]

it is 560

[midnight granite]

imagine going 4k/200

[bright vigil]

Whats the best way to setup battery farms?, 2 shredding units and a refinery with a fitting unit? Then split between two thermal units and a belt going into storage?

[still garden]

at regional 11 isnt it supposed to be 540?

[craggy wedge]

I am regional 11 and I have 560

[still garden]

how??

i have all the mining spots

[bright vigil]

Want to balance getting power and having some to sell

[craggy wedge]

go check all your mineral beds again

[nova osprey]

oh gosh, another set of mines are unpowered, here we go again

[midnight granite]

what about ferrium

[nova osprey]

1080

[midnight granite]

damn

im missing 200

[nova osprey]

whats your development level

[midnight granite]

10

[still garden]

yepp somehow one of them got unplugged by itself

[midnight granite]

but i havent put miners to every ore

cuz i focused on wuling

[still garden]

i wish there was a way to view the ones that arent powered

[craggy wedge]

the pylons do not have legs, they don't move on their own

[still garden]

its the one near the main valley 4 base with 2 originium

[nova knot]

Disregard that, I was being stupid

[still garden]

it mightve been due to moving the aic?

i have no clue

[craggy wedge]

moving the AIC does not unplug anything

hell, you can even move the AIC well over 80m away from pylons and they won't unplug

[still garden]

ive had all my pylons get disconnected due to moving the aic before

so i put pylons all over the base

[nova osprey]

except in wuling it does

but for v4 yeah, it doesn't disconnect

[craggy wedge]

if we're being pedantic here, the wuling pylons don't "plug" in to begin with

[nova osprey]

note to self: do not put mining rigs onto a mining spot before connecting it, otherwise you will not get the notification on global map that a spot is available

[midnight granite]

240/min ferrium for an efficient capsule a right

[nova osprey]

yes

[fervent stratus]

That is what I did.... if the tower take too long to kill, add slow/stun :P

[nova osprey]

are you using turrets only to kill?

[midnight granite]

time for the factory to grow

[fervent stratus]

Central control for power (Central menu for turning on/off) would be nice

[daring bobcat]

what's the best method to increas operator levels fast for story

[nova osprey]

gl have fun

[midnight granite]

ur gonna lose bro

[craggy wedge]

they'll show as unpowered on the map I guess

[nova osprey]

yeap

and then you have to go looking for where it's unpowered

[still garden]

it does not have any indicator that its unpowered

gotta check manually

💔

[fervent stratus]

I always lay the power line near it first XD Can't relate

[runic thistle]

les be honest guys, the tidiest factory ever

[nova osprey]

if it's already connected, you can see where the power disconnects, but if you do what i did, you're in a hell of a pain looking around

[potent mantle]

nah id win

[sand plinth]

is there any menu where i can see what rig is using up my battery and how much it is using?
without having to go to each location one by one

[nova osprey]

i wish

[fervent stratus]

Wouldn't that be nice?

[nova osprey]

i swear i have some useless mk 2s around

[sand plinth]

smadge

[spark zealot]

So uh Whats the best factory setup to make infinite buckflower or whatever it’s called

[golden burrow]

the game teaches you about this in the aic simulation chapter about planting

[fervent stratus]

It would have been nice....

[midnight granite]

damn should i get to RDL 11 to get 1k ferrium yield?

[golden burrow]

yes

[spark zealot]

Oh! That’s good to know lol I skipped it so I could place this blueprint but didn’t realize it wasnt fully automated

[craggy wedge]

do you need more ferrium

[fervent stratus]

Dude.... just put 2 planter and 1 seeder and you get constant plant =_=

[spark zealot]

That’s what I figured since that the setup this blueprint has but it seems to have missing belts

[fervent stratus]

My BP for plant powder (Expect the seed-picker and planter to clog, honestly lol)

[craggy wedge]

I'm using this for plants

little bit better for tiling I think

[faint veldt]

its fine if my power goes out but the backup power never reaches 0 before coming back on right?

[quasi patio]

I'm gonna need some hand holding on this part for sure 😂

[fervent stratus]

I should do something similar, yeah since 2 planter into a seeder is overkill lol

[golden burrow]

technically yes but you gotta be sure the power is coming back on before it's too late

[craggy wedge]

actually if yours is backing up, it might just give full output to the stash

so it's probably fine

[faint veldt]

yeye, its fully automated, i just wanna be sure im not losing efficiency during the "blackout"

[fervent stratus]

My Seed-picker will clog because of 2 planters but it's constant output from shredder

[oblique pendant]

and why would it be

[fervent stratus]

In your case, your planter will have too much seeds I think

[golden burrow]

should be okay then

[craggy wedge]

nah, the ratio works out to be just right

[fervent stratus]

Ohh yeah, I think it does since picker will output 2 at the same time

[stoic thicket]

It’s almost my time chat. The sandleaf approaches

[craggy wedge]

seeder is 1:2, planter is 1:1, so 1:2 -> 2:2 -> 1 goes to seeder, 1 goes to stash

[fervent stratus]

You can just modify my BP I think. Just loop one of them.

[craggy wedge]

like if balanced outputs work the way I think they do, yours should be working at full throughput anyway

[fervent stratus]

Yeah mine is at full throughput. Only seed-picker get clogged but I can improve it so... why not?

[craggy wedge]

if the seed picker is getting clogged, that's not a problem if they excess input is going to the stash

which it is

[fervent stratus]

That.... just give me an idea....

[white heath]

Just learning the factory
I JUST built this immediately after getting access to Sandleaf for Cryston Components
It works, but from what I'm seeing, the final gearing units sleeps half the time
...This means I straight up need to double all the production lines, right? And make 2 more plant farms for Sandleaf. And connect all the lines to the final gearing unit.

[warped granite]

what is ferrium used to make in end game wuling?

[vapid dock]

I did a bit more deep dive for uncessary hyper minmaxing wuling

The current hourly stock bill on wuling is 16770 bills per hour with maxed everything and appropriate operator. With metatransfer sending 25 ferrium/min you can make 5.75 syringes per minute equaling to 5520 bills per hour
If you build 12/min batteries with 3 going into power that totals to 19,020 bills per hour.
So instead make 10.5 batteries/min with 3 going into power. By reducing the xeranite input of one of the battery modules to 22.5/min instead of 30. That way you'll be making 11,250 bills per hour which exactly equals to 16,770 bills per hour with 7.5 xeranite/min to spare. Send the xeranite back to valley and turn it into 1.5 components / min

[hexed spruce]

at the moment its for syringes, im assuming it will be like buck pack ranging from C-A and we will be selling syringe A towards the end

[nova osprey]

this is pretty tilable

[craggy wedge]

yea I was just about to make that exact design lol

[lament token]

How to unlock forge of the sky?

[golden burrow]

first off, sandleaf in the shredder makes 3 powder
also look at the gearing unit's recipe, if it says 10 per 10 seconds then you need 2 inputs, if 15 then 3, and so on

[autumn root]

Hello can anyone help me be more efficient with my base since I have so much space left and incase I can farm anything else do tell. My main PAC there is nothing connected to it so incase I can use it for doing something please tell.

[craggy wedge]

main quest

[autumn root]

Here is my productions

[fervent stratus]

I can do this...

[craggy wedge]

please don't

[fervent stratus]

Why?

[craggy wedge]

so much dead space

[hexed spruce]

just look around #1461542035617091681 and copy codes until you have enough stock tickets to max every base. once you have every base maxed, go to #1465094572055990325 and you'll have the best optimized factory in every base

[steady canyon]

weird question but how fast do things output from buildings? do they output 1 per second?

[autumn root]

So is my not optimised?

[nova osprey]

30/min

[autumn root]

I don't know much

[golden burrow]

belts are 1 per 2 second, if pipes then 1/s

[craggy wedge]

output for depot access is 0.5/s base, output from machines is determined by production speed

[steady canyon]

ahh okay thanks

[white heath]

aight
...so I can use a splitter to use one sandleaf for both the originium and amethyst gearing units? make the change, then copy and paste for a second input?

[hexed spruce]

even max optimized main bases have some dead space tbh

but also you didnt show enough of yours

[woven plover]

what limit is this?

[golden burrow]

don't use a splitter, the shredder has 3 output ports so use them all

[fervent stratus]

I mean.... you don't always have a long free space

[crimson inlet]

> Miniaturised Industry line
> Doesn't scale upwards, limited to ground level

[golden burrow]

holy shit

too many buildings in map

[white heath]

oh it splits automatically? ok nice

[woven plover]

wth for real?

[golden burrow]

i think (first time seeing this too)

[stoic thicket]

This is good info for me since I’m just about to reach the area where sandleaf grows so I can start using it

[woven plover]

this is funny im not even maximum productivity in making buck capsule [A]

[craggy wedge]

like if I was gonna do that, I'd squish it down a bit more to be more square

[crimson inlet]

1 sandleaf = 3 powder

[craggy wedge]

but yeah, this kinda design isn't necessary for my base

[nova osprey]

check to see if those bridges affect

[golden burrow]

probably too many ziplines, towers, etc

[nova osprey]

people love their symmetry and that's understandable

[golden burrow]

wot

then what is it

[woven plover]

oh no.. im cooked

[craggy wedge]

don't call out my autism thx

[nova osprey]

they do dont they?

[woven plover]

[nova osprey]

bro im autistic too but my base is a mess bc i didn't go for symmetry, i went for space xD

[fervent stratus]

Well... if you want it to look nice, you will use more space

[jolly lantern]

Can I send my blueprints even if spaghetti?

[crimson inlet]

my overkill sandleaf powder producer

[woven plover]

i think its the bridge..

[nova osprey]

ya why not

[woven plover]

they didnt tell us the limit bro

[golden burrow]

uh good luck fixing it

[woven plover]

thats not fair

[nova osprey]

tone down on the bridges, this guy just ran into some issues

[craggy wedge]

two autistic people arguing over the most insignificant optimizations purely to back up the design that looks the best to them

[spiral creek]

[craggy wedge]

can you put an upwards kink in the conveyor between the top planter and the stash

for no reason

[low obsidian]

Ok how to get in here?

[golden burrow]

don't kid yourself, we're in the channel dedicated to the factorio part of anime girl factorio, we're all autistic here

[nova osprey]

go around to the left. if you can't, go do the lone wolf quest

[fervent stratus]

Yes I can.... also that's a Shredder

[low obsidian]

OH THANKS

[crimson inlet]

I haven't gotten that issue yet

[nova osprey]

yeah but you might

[small creek]

can anyone verify if lvl1 Infra-Station accepts Canned Citrome C for stock credits?

[fervent stratus]

If you want to adjust the direction of the shredder, just tweak the top left corner where the Shredder is lol

[nova osprey]

also shredders output at two points at max speed, you can squish yours down by 1 space

[fervent stratus]

The special conveyors count? lol

[woven plover]

yup

[nova osprey]

i guess, the other guy said so

[woven plover]

i got tons of em on my Aic

[nova osprey]

i was asking if it did and apparently yes

[woven plover]

they need to increase it tbh

[low obsidian]

Thanks

[woven plover]

it just doesnt make sense

[nova osprey]

nice, np

[nova osprey]

it's too taxing logically

[craggy wedge]

there, ftfy

[fervent stratus]

They don't (This is level 3). Level 1 take Ferrium Part and the LC Battery

[woven plover]

but im not even lagging 👉 👈

[nova osprey]

belts can easily be calculated in an optimal manner, taking into account inputs and outputs

[nova osprey]

too taxing on their servers, you won't lag, they will

[woven plover]

oh right this is online game i forgot lmao

[small creek]

oh so its just lv4, thank you very much

[woven plover]

fair enough they should add limit info in the ui or something..

[shadow loom]

where can i get energy for my mines here?

[small creek]

i keep having trouble designing blueprints just because i dont know what newbies start with

[golden burrow]

you'll get an aic zone here

[small creek]

seeing the previous limits would be great help...

[fervent stratus]

Well....

[shadow loom]

so... the worst solution of them all...do more story

[brave niche]

how do i solve this if i can t put down more forge of the sky?

[oblique pendant]

u don't

[golden burrow]

yes (sadge)

[brave niche]

oof

[craggy wedge]

ok so: can you make a design that balances inputs to an inventory, while maintaining full throughput from any input to all outputs?

I designed this one, which kinda works, but it expands in size the wider the inputs are

[golden burrow]

me going to funny leek woman's office to demand more forges

[brave niche]

so every now and then i gotta stop proucing components

[crimson inlet]

the first ever pipe balancer

[oblique pendant]

what even is the point the game has so little through put

[small creek]

@woven plover would u also happen to know if lv1 Valley Pass outpost accepts Canned Citrome C?

[craggy wedge]

tism

[craggy wedge]

I KNOW AND I HATE IT

[golden burrow]

meanwhile me using 1 pipe to water all the wuling farmland

[shadow loom]

when can we make the belts a bit more fast?

[golden burrow]

u cannot

[crimson inlet]

never

[oblique pendant]

neva

[golden burrow]

eva

[woven plover]

yes

[crimson inlet]

unless they did in wuling

[carmine jewel]

they did not

[golden burrow]

they don't

[crimson inlet]

for the next update

[shadow loom]

must be in the 5.0 update we'll wait for in 5 years

[carmine jewel]

enjoy 2u/s water and 0.5u/s items

[golden burrow]

well technically pipes go 1/s

while belts are 1/2s

[carmine jewel]

oh wait it's 1u/s on pipes?

[golden burrow]

ye

[carmine jewel]

damn

in beta they were 2u/s

[small creek]

it does?

[crimson inlet]

bro, we better get xirenite conveyors

[woven plover]

but its not lvl 1 i think? i forgot mine already maxed out

[golden burrow]

robbed again

[fervent stratus]

I can show a level 3 but yeah...

[small creek]

yeah same... its such a problem lmao

[golden burrow]

wait actually, the pumps output 1/s so i assume the pipes go with that, idk if they can handle 2/s or not

[static isle]

what do yall think?
left half currently left unplugged, 120 ferrium/min deficit made up with metastatic + manual depot from ship (metastatic gets you to 115)

[hollow crest]

I think the syringe production is hardcapped

[golden burrow]

manualing ore 💀

[fervent stratus]

I don't think so? Looking at the scaling

[static isle]

metastatic gets you to 115/min
so you only have to manual like 7.2k per day

[ancient zinc]

YOLO…

I’m running out of ORES 😭😭

[untold moon]

Feels like you have a lot of dead space, but I cant say for certain since I havent gotten in depth with wuling just yet

[small creek]

uh what scaling

[nova knot]

Has anyone done the math on optimized Dijang setups?

[golden burrow]

bro what are you even buying in wuling with the extra stock money you get

[pastel totem]

Looks good so far ig

[fervent stratus]

It's asking for Buck Capsule [A] but not Canned Citrome [A] at level 3

[static isle]

wiring is a bit yank yeah
mostly because of fluid ports
I wish HG gives us the option to mirror it

[fervent stratus]

Imma check database, maybe Citrome [A] doesn't exist

[golden burrow]

canned citrome a is only bought on level 4 on all outposts

[untold moon]

Yeah the piping is throwing me off

[small creek]

oh good catch, you're right thank you

[fervent stratus]

I think it's level 2+

[hollow crest]

only 1 new optimization I've found so far is using yazhen plant to make x2 more carbon than buck, reducing the energy required so you use less battery

oh woops, wrong reply

[nova knot]

uh... what

oh xD

[crimson inlet]

you can use sandleaf to reduce any use of other plants

[fervent stratus]

Yazhen Plant.... need more than a planter, right? I'm not there yet

[hollow crest]

it's the same, but just need water

[crimson inlet]

sandleaf for both carbon and dense originium

[golden burrow]

only 1 seeder + 1 planter + water

[fervent stratus]

Buck doesn't need water....... you can just put it anywhere

[golden burrow]

less space than infinite farms actually

the planter (water mode) makes 2 plant instead of 1

[hollow crest]

I managed to use less planter, less energy, only 1 battery needed for all of the production

[fervent stratus]

AHHH

[oblique pendant]

btw is there any way to automate the eco-farm aside from sprinklers ?

[golden burrow]

nopey nope

[fervent stratus]

Wait.... how is that different from Buck? Does it make more plant/seed or something?

[crimson inlet]

I'm not actually concerned with battery in wuling because I transfer HC batteries from valley 4

[untold moon]

How do you get to this screen? Ive never seen this one

[crimson inlet]

use the wuling batteries to earn more

[golden burrow]

buck/cit wants 2 planters + 1 seeder, yazh/jin wants 1 planter + 1 seeder

[fervent stratus]

Bottom right

[hollow crest]

on AIC core, click on the protocol management menu

[ancient zinc]

Imagine people keeps switching valley to wuling manually just to transfer stuffs

[hollow crest]

or ye use the AIC report

[crimson inlet]

You just go to dijiang and there's a button to switch from wuling to valley depot storage

[fervent stratus]

That imply.... it make 2 plants?

[crimson inlet]

I batch transfer them 1.3k at a time

[golden burrow]

yes that's what i said earlier

[ancient zinc]

Dats what im doing yet other people doesn’t know it

[glossy matrix]

is there a bp for a random sc bat? need to level up my second outpost

[golden burrow]

#1461542035617091681 look it up tiger

[glossy matrix]

gurt been lookin for like 20 mins

[golden burrow]

imagine manualing ore at all

[static isle]

retouched the wiring a bit

[ancient zinc]

[vapid dock]

except you can only transfer at a rate of 30 batteries per hour. Thermal banks need 1.5 batteries per minute (90 per hour) so you have to be manually transferring batteries daily.

[crimson inlet]

the factorio strat

[hollow crest]

manual transfer battery is wild

[tribal crescent]

I found my calling chat

[crimson inlet]

uh... I transfer 1.3k by a button switch

[tribal crescent]

My Asian blood is swelling

[ancient zinc]

Welcome to the rice fields

[untold moon]

Thanks!

[crimson inlet]

literally same time

[tribal crescent]

[vapid dock]

you don't even need the extra battery production

[golden burrow]

wait until you get to the farms

[vapid dock]

the resources in wuling without any transfer is enough to meet the hourly stock bill

[golden burrow]

manual farming

just like the ancestors wanted

[hollow crest]

yes this is correct

[tribal crescent]

My only concern is that this game doesn't have that much area to farm

[crimson inlet]

I sell the batteries in valley for exp and progression materials

[tribal crescent]

[hollow crest]

my wuling innate battery alone alr enough to eat all the bills, the syringe is just for the love of the game

[crimson inlet]

I mainly use xinerite for battery selling

[golden burrow]

bro is a true asian, respect

[hidden ether]

anyone have a compact 8 depot blueprint?

[vapid dock]

doesnt make a difference though you're still hardcapped by the hourly stock bill production of the outpost itself

you can't 'sell more batteries' because they wont have enough currency to buy it

[crimson inlet]

my concern on farming is the sprinklers... you can't use 1 sprinklers for 2 plots

[vapid dock]

you can use 1 sprinkler for 2 plots

[golden burrow]

you can

[tribal crescent]

Sprinkler?

[crimson inlet]

its a waiting game then

[tribal crescent]

What's this white complaint?

Sprinkler

Haiya

[dry prairie]

Hi guys, i need guide for ferium/canned food/bombs/medicines factory

[golden burrow]

waiting for the devs to release more areas so i don't have to deal with this 90/m ferrium bullshit

[tribal crescent]

My grandfather would just do it all by hand

[crimson inlet]

I'm a lazy bum fat asian man

[tribal crescent]

Disgraceful

[crimson inlet]

I try to optimize shids

[crimson inlet]

can't wait to hear "my back is aching" and forces you to massage them

[crimson inlet]

I love ze top view

its the best view

[teal cliff]

hey guys so how did I do with this one (can't afford any expansions so I'm trying to manufacture batts to sell)

[slender river]

why wont we use jincao as carbon?

[crimson inlet]

imagine not playing top view in mobile

[slender river]

it make 2 carbon btw

[vapid dock]

the area isn't the issue, the farm in wuling can hold 30 plots
but for some reason they decided to hardcap the allowed number of plots to 20

and the eco farm can only hold 16, but the eco farm doesn't have any nearby water

[golden burrow]

i'm more angry that we're forced to have 3 space gaps between plots

[halcyon radish]

gang just because you have all that space doesn't mean you need to use all of it, make that first pic closer together

[golden burrow]

like wtf is this

[stoic stump]

wtf is a depot bus its literally there?

[golden burrow]

it says overlap though

[crimson inlet]

its overlapping, you may have a build nearby

[vapid dock]

are you trying to build it over existing unloaders or something

[crimson inlet]

Daily reminder to check these

[stoic stump]

nothing its far away

[craggy wedge]

ok so I kinda got nerd sniped by that conversation about planters before, and I think I've got a pretty optimal solution

[rain schooner]

just got to wuling.....youre telling me every new region is gonna have their own mining gear and stuff. are they fr

ooof

[craggy wedge]

I still wanna remove that extra 1u stickout on the top/bottom, but I'm gonna have to resort to some truly cursed optimizations

[golden burrow]

the mining gear is the same, you just get water now

[shrewd sigil]

Me making one battery a minute

Lmao

[vital narwhal]

Does the Wuling outpost accept any new products when it reaches level 2? Or just the same?
