yeah gotta upgrade them to max
Hello, wanted to ask, is there a better way to increase my production? This is how it is atm
the price of everything is actually ludicrous once you buy out the cheap things
oh i should promote some more operators to level 60
the real money sink
remember chat the harder your player model clips into random objects when ziplining the more optimal they are
how about the v4 side i mean 
the annoying part is how you have to wait for the raft to finish
i guess i might as well just buy out the progression items before buying the motorcycle
v4 moneysink
i mean once you get the one you want, is there any use for it
Ok, factory remodeling done, and I have 2 extra grinders to produce more complex medicine in the future
is sending ore to wuling from v4 needed? or more like is it a needed automation
better to send bottles
and since you're still working on your PACs, im assuming you dont have metastorage transfer
just use the metastorage transfer once u unlock it for ferrium and u should be good
What if u ran out of bottles in wuling
you're transferring ferrium over for medicine in the first place no?
so like it doesn't really matter if you run out of bottles, you just hook up a bottle line to your filler
Yeah how long is process anyway
bottles are a non issue u won't need more than 50/100 since you get the empty ones when you use them
Like the filling unit
and using a filler for a ponctual item is kinda eeeh
2s
just setup and tank and fill them by hand when you run out while exploring
so what are you transferring your ferrium over for then? batteries?
medecine wdym
same??
do anyone kown how to make a 7 to 8 belt splitter ?
I would need one for maxing out Valley and still have about 1 belt of ferrum to give to Wuling, but idk how to do belt splitting properly like that..
i transfer my bottles over for medicine too
Worth it to just make Valley batteries in Wuling, and use the rare Xiranite for something else?
it's the same shit less machines lmao
U don’t get back bottle bro
It doesn’t matter where I place the PAC right? 
when you use the botttles outside yes you do, like for the sprayer
Yeah but not in the machine to make medicine

wait in valley IV, what else do I need to output other than HC battery and buck capsule A
Buck/Citrome C for max profit
nothing those are enough to cap you out
i have two buck c for amethyst storage, and then the rest into amethyst parts
parts shouldn't be taken into total even if they count for the theoretical
You can just leave a splitter at the bottles to send some to bottle xiranite and disconnect it when you feel like you are auto sustainable
since you cap them and then they're clogged
that's why you only run two buck C, so you only need to sell once every 11 hours, or make 3 buck c to only have to sell every 22 hours
if you want to leave it for a week make 4 buck c i guess
i feel like this is a bomb type situation 
why citrome C?
citrome or buck, both sell same price, machines are the exact same. people say buck A for simplicity but you could have triple citrome A and there would be no difference
Alternative

What do you need so many explosives for
yes
We are blowing up the final boss with all this
should i purposely have buck/citrome C just to make use of my amethyst?
no they're trying to blow up all of talos II with this
any clue what im missing? i have all ferrium mines as well as RDL lvl 11, but somehow still at 1040/min
Use 1>cannot perform action while in combat
More like nuking the Landbreakers and Aggelois
Missing 1,check again
turning into parts is the cheapest way to process amethyst, but you cap out in 5 hours if you put all amethyst into parts. 2 C med machines will make it so your amethyst caps out in 11 hours, and 3 will make it 22 hours
C med is more for storage, because you dont gain anything from making them. you only lose power
some of the outpost level added new mines so you probably forgot one
i recommend at least doing two C med factories, so you can run amethyst overnight and not have it clog
is buck A the best tactical
anyone got a full factory blueprint for infrastation and temp chelter
i swear i must be going crazy, ive gone over all the ferrium mines several times
U can sell both C med no?

No need to go over again just click on the mine icon on map and u’ll see which one is broken
actually wait, technically citrome c is better bc all 3 buy, infra station and reconstruction HQ dont buy buck A
i mean, ive been going all over the mines using the map, and checking if all rigs are powered, but they all are????
Not really, the best ones would be jincao drink or yayhen syringe
well the max is definitely 1080 so its on your end
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nxfZAGx3IZamJw7JY_2yb6RnJyWkrVQTdKYwIWyDL3Q/edit?usp=sharing From my new testing:
i mean, it'll just go red and say not powered or somethign right? if one of the mines arent working
Are engravings reusable?
Yes Or u don’t have a rig on there
im going to sacrifice my first born child, i literally for the life of me cant find this one ferrium spot
they're equippables essentially, so yes. you can upgrade essences though, which consumes essences. as far as ive seen, there is no benefit to using the same exact essence on upgrading essences
rip child
Niceeee. I was dreading farming them if it was a single use
Oh, true... Well, time to change my production line
you honestly dont even need that many engraving permits, since the drop chance should be 1/40 if i calculated it right, and you get 3 per clear
engravings arent reusable, once you apply it to your run it gets used for that run

I just made a really long power line route
wait do you mean the engraving permit btw? or the essence themselves
guys, one question. Im trying to make buck capsule A, and that takes 10 steel bottles + 10 g. buckflower powder. Could someone help me understand why it says im using too much of those two? (in theoretical data)
checked online, i found the spot, apparently there's a ferrium spot there.. question is how do I unlock this? (dont tell me i have to do surtr's quest)
The yield doesn't match the theoretical. Sometimes the theoretical can be wrong. If you routed intermediate through depot and still have stock in depot then it can mean that Usage is being fufilled despite theoretical saying otherwise.
It uses 10 steel bottles and 10 powder per 10s, so it will consume 60u/min of each in total
walk there, gate should be open for u
One buck capsule A farm has a theoretical intake of 60 bottles per minute. 10 every 10 seconds. you need two belts constantly feeding the machine bottles to keep it going at full speed
you're talking about theoretical yes?
I just dedas climbed that shi and colonized that spot
LMAO
oh nice, it is open, back then there was a big ass gate over here. anyways, thanks!
yes
Ooh i see
ideally how many buck A and hc battery should I be producing per minute
taking a quick look at your setup, it looks like you just dont have enough lines going into the packaging unit
keep in mind that it takes up 10 bottles and powder every 10 seconds
each belt transfers at the rate of 1 item every 2 seconds, or 5 items every 10 seconds, which isn't enough to keep up. Your data is saying that your packaging unit is running only half of the time because right now, it's 5 per 10 seconds instead of 10 per 10 seconds
18 of each
And the moulding machine makes one bottle per two steel every 2 seconds, so you need two belts sending steel into the moulding machine at full speed to produce bottles at full speed
Four steel refineries > two moulding machines > one packaging unit
their steel looks okay tbh, just need more bottles and powder 
I just wanted to lay out the assembly line for clarity
only bottles in this case? i though i also had to increase g. buckflower powder
yes you need both
Does the Power Plateau get to have its own factory? Or am I gonna have to cable this shit again all the way up the mountain?
im gonna try what you guys said, thanks
it has its own
I was focusing on bottles but yes you need the same amount of both
Awesome
you mean filling unit?
You will need to set up 6 grinders to produce Buck A at 100% efficiency
The only production line that I was able to make symmetrical...
thoughts? 40x21 so perfect to put on to your subpac x3. the rest of slots can be for the seeds (7)
Question, Valley 4 is fully consuming 1080 ferrium per minute, but i want to transfer 1200 per hour (about 20 per minute) to wuling, will i be able to sustain it? from the looks of it, it the current data or even the theoretical data doesnt take into account the transfer rate from regional transfer.
regional 12?
if not get to regional 12 quickly for meta transfer which just dupe item out of thin air when transfering
what in god's green earth
metastorage transfer doesnt consume depot stock
yeah
so thats what that was, saw meta transfer thing but didnt know what it was
unfortunately idt theres any way to just... normally transfer stock
meta transfer is great
thanks! welp, wont be able to get it since I just got to RDL 11..
alternatively you can sit in the dijiang and manually transfer stock
thats what im actually doing right now... just once every few days i transfer several thounsands of ferrium ore from valley to wuling lmao
what if ur valley ran out
we'll cross that bridge when we get there 
i produced packed origocrust in v4 and then manually transferred the amount i needed for gear to wuling for the parts
well u will still need to manually transfer ur valley stock to wuling even with meta transfer, once in a while
by then you'll have regional 12 and metatransfer 
I don't have it unlocked but how does Metatransfer work
the exact same as regular transfer except that you don't even need to have the item
will i get to regional 12 if i just max my depot levels?
it spawns it out of thin air
and moves it into the wuling depo
same speed same amount
yeah but it will take a while for u, since u dont have resource to sell to power plant


recycling stations, traders, outposts, depots
power off one of ur farm and make B tier farm to sell
i maxed everything for it

Is it bad I'm dreaming about streamlining my production lines (this is giving me Dyson Sphere Program levels of addiction)
Only on Chapter 1 part 3 atm LOL
just buy factorio atp
We are all living that XD
Only bad because it might be like a month plus until they give us new production line content
Factorio doesn't have waifus
As a crippling factorio addict.. I get you (i bought dyson but never played the game lmao, curse your satisfactory)
Guess we'll see though
Satisfactory is another good one
They're both good XD
the actual info box
uhhh why it all red.... i have enough power and made sure they are within 80m.....
I need to try Factorio, and play Dyson Sphere because it just sitting idle in my library...
did you connect it to something that had power
Make sure it's connected to the PAC
probably
wait no thats wuling mb
You can make a giant fleet of spaceships to nuke your enemies
tbf I'm dead impressed about the factory options from a gacha game
Reminds me a bit of Mindustry
I’m guessing I need to make more buckflower setups if my usage rate of them is beyond my out put of them? Idk, I just feel like stockpiling buckflower bushes.
I love how, people who got introduced to automation game through endfield, learning about factorio or other popular automation game. It's like having a first taste of sugar then immediately jumping to heroin. 
does anyone think 18 buck cap a + 12 hc valley in just core is possible?
What’s next? Max operators?
current max production is 18 per minute of each
(limited by the amount of resource nodes)
What's next? Multi-story vertical belts & belt beeders? (gonna nuke mobile performance)
i know but you literally cant have enough depots even if the machines would fit
oh you mean in just core
ye
sorry misunderstood, afaik, I dont think so?????????
the CN bro's might have found a way, idk
Nah, I already knew about them, in any case because of my interest for those games I found about Endfild factory system. At first I thought it was just another Hack n Slash gacha game and I didn't even think about giving it a try
nope
im gonna do some math and figure out see what the building coverage efficiency has to be
mk yeah one of them wasnt 80mmm took awhile too find that... 
Metastorage transfer is better than Regular transfer for Ferrium right? Regular was 1200 and Meta is 1500
or am I missing something
we need better belts, better splitters, mergers, underground belts, belt stacking.. gdi just import factorio dlc on endfield 
Sorry if I sound a bit vague on my question. I’m trying to balance out output and usage rates.
u mean like every chain recipe in core right?, no stuff like blue cube and stuff in subpac?
yeah everything in core
planters, everything
only ore input
hmm
the issue is going to be making use of the space away from the depot wall
#1464951236003369214
this is what im currently using with 2 extra blue cube inside
wym 2 extra blue cube
somehow while reworking my wuling battries prod, i ended up with this design, i swear it was by accident lmao
nvm no extra cube, since the buck is 4 cube each and the main have 14
can someone send me a legendary gear blueprint
?
Got a question
Content Creator RENEGADE's "Mega Base Blueprint" for V4. What do people think on it?
RAAH


am i doubg something wrong here?
I'm asking because I'm thinking of doing a V4 Overhaul on my base
bro is gonna be broke on xiranite and originite in about 15 mins
no component factory, double Wuling battery production
One of your inputs going into Xiranite is not 100% efficient
Maybe you forgot to have two lines coming from the shredder
shit i got exposed
You end up with funny designs while trying things out
Its only funny if you want it to be funny
bridges suck tho
Do they slow things down?
MY OPTIMIZATION NOO
Um?
Required for sandleaf though when feeding 3 efficently
they are fine to use if you are placing it on belts that have slow production(not transporting something back to back)
I tried factorio and realized it ain't hit nearly as smooth as the aic
Wish we had more to do than endlessly be capped by ores
Hmn?
My factory is running at 100% with bridges
wait, tell me, what do you mean by "bridges"?
Belt bridges
This things
yeah ok turns out i accidentally had one broken carbon conveyer lol
thats weird, a bridge only allows 1 item to pass through at a time,thats why it slows production
Are u thinking about a merger?
It shouldn't, the main attractive of belt bridges is that it doesn't affect the flow of the items from both belts
the bridge will NOT slow production if belts are like this
it would slow these however
are we deadass
sigh
is it worth to put miners on all nodes or is that overkill?
this is easily solved by looking at things properly
You are expected to
ight bet


😲
do we know the end amount of mining beds/yield amount should be?
we do, and it's not enough xd
Those ore yield
cheers imma save this
@hard kayak im i mistaken?
Ur missing 40 originium
From my observations, bridges don't interfere
U have to level up your exploration level as well for it to be max
If belt bridges would half the flow of the belts, this wouldn't be working at all for me
word I'll try and crosscheck
Oh fk where is that
thats impossible why do they visibly slow things up for me ????
ayo 560 orig ore? Wait this is even higher
"dont judge a book by its cover" or sth
I am missing 1 bed
560 Originium, 240 Amethyst, and 1080 Ferrium is Fully Tapped V4

The best way to understand it is to try it yourself
Where the hell is that
Also, I'm looking at my bases
Im like 90% sure ur mixing up mergers and bridges

and Belt Bridges do as advertised
Does anyone have a good resource for builds for the base defense
most likely you messed up when putting in Bridges with Mergers or Splitters
Spam surge tower and the sniper looking tower
Youtube should have something. I hadn't looked yet
do I just craft one of buck A or canned A or should I be crafting both
hmm 18 buck cap + 12 HC is probably possible, it needs to be about as space efficient as the 60/min xira overall. It will be harder to reach that though since a lot of the usable space is very far from depots...
Okay thanks
oh i also forgot to add the space the aic itself takes up
Buck is technically better for leveling bc the greedy outposts refuse to take canned until maxed
But after they're all level 4 doesnt matter
Oh sht, maitenance warning, time to zipline around the map and collect everything
I can’t figure out how to find good blueprint bases for the smaller bases
Like refuge camp in valley pass
Or infra-station in science park
THE FACTORY MUST GROW.
However, there will be a quick update soon. So be warned
Hello everyone, I took the blueprint from the Internet, asks the depot unloader need to connect to the depor bus but I don't see it anywhere
holy shit, bridges dont slow things down??? i swear yesterday i had to scrap using bridges because of that, could it be a bug or something?
is the update at 7:00 PM?
Don't see what?
It keeps saying the planet but not for what base
Did you buy the depot bus yet?
All outposts are the same size and layout
No idea. But I can confirm it doesn't slow anything down
So just chuck it in the place u can max first usually
Technically speaking, the only difference is the amount of Size + Bus you buy for the different outposts
once everything is max, then you can assume uniformity
for an item that has 2 or 3 outputs per 1 input (like buckflower or sandleaf to their powder version) does having 2 output lines from the shredder actually increase the production rate at all?
oh. i need to buy. OK, where i can buy?
Aic assistant, same place with the area expansion
Man imagine if the game had fluids like Factorio that's when people would get confused
specifically like the yield stat that I would see
It doesn't increase production rate, but it increases your output rate towards belts which stops the clogging of your module
Yes belts can only move 30 /min so if its turning 30/min into 2 outputs, itll be 60/min which needs two to ferry it out
ok, thank you
ok, time to actually just set up this thing
Yeah..@unborn jackal make sure to double check your mineral after upgrade exploration lv
high time for me to just totally switch over to fully utilize my V4 outposts
so an optimal sandleaf powder unit would output 90/min running at full capacity and w/ 3 belts?
How
Wuling? you still need to buy the Depot upgrade
U need the square first
then you need the square
U need to upgrade and place the square looking depot first
to connect to rectangle
i forgor that exist
Funny thing is u can put unloaders on the square
Seem like someone skipped tutotial 
:3 more outputs to use
You can even put them of both sides
how do I use megastorage? i just unlocked it
Is Dev lv 12 reachable in Valley4?
I managed to max out my wuling with only 3 of the rectangles by using the square
I when I saw that, my brain jumped instantly to try to make a cross design to maximize the number of outputs I can have
hi quick question about the electric mining rig: is there an extra benefit to using the MkII version on originium/amethyst? Or is it purely made to just mine ferrium
If ur already transferring something, u need to cancel it first, then swap over to metastorage
Its like a slider thingy
Havent seen anyone with lv 12

whats the difference between that and the regular stockpile transfer?
It uses magic and doesn't affect the place ur taking it from
Aka if u are maxxing out i/o in V4 for ferrium and have no ferrium, u can still transfer it even if it doesnt exist
the factory has grown
Give factory making tips
Only thing that really matters is ur ore input tbh, its the main rate limiter
If u divide whatever your yield is by 30 u get the number of unloaders u can use without over using it
M
yeah honestly most if not all of my stuff comes from the main AIC factory but i cant get more ore to justify more production of stuff like batteries and the like

question, anyone got a EU Wuling Base blueprint for very early? I just arrived and wanna go to sleep and get some value
me too girl me too

I got a xiranite bp
Girl send help ahahaha
its genuinely melting my brain but im just trying my best w the blueprints 😭 🙏
Holy plant production
More MORE
For example wtf is that 😭
is the factory that hard? Its just a balancing game of inputs and outputs and then connecting em
farming inc
.....
Is this bullying
IM GENUINELY CURIOUS
LMAOO
If you break it down into its base, Endfield's factory building is not hard at all
Like i keep hearing people talk about how difficult it is but like everything is balanced so perfectly, i didnt even have to bring out any spreadsheets to min max everything
bro, enjoy game
i enjoy factory builders
if its work, its work
for me, minmaxing and optimizing stuff is difficult yeah
i can make things work but its not efficient LOL
You good im probably just dumb hahaha
Its not really that hard it just gets confusing trying to manage it cause of the sheer quantity in the recipes
@torn sedge All fine now

Oh man, I'm gonna need more Wuling parts for artificing... Is there an easy way to swap over some of the production to this end without borking things if I'm doing a 1.5 battery setup with 0.5 of the xiranite just going to stash?
Endfield Factory building is not as complex or convoluted as some dedicated factory building games
I just have 1 of my dense originium and 1 xiranite in my battery chain lead to a depot bus stash thingy so that i can just turn off the packager and when the belts clog bc the packager isnt working it auto ports the mats back to the depot for use in a gearing loop
You don't even have to think of a 2nd floor to things
nor are you even thinking of transport logistics
beyond belts
and the handful of tools like mergers, splitters, and bridges
a lot of transport logistics is handled by the system
You don't have to build train tracks
or hubs
Imo splitters in this game are useless except for battery sushi belts
or actual vehicle transport routes
do I need to produce both buck A and canned A?
No
if one of them, which do I produce
also, with one speed on belts, the maths are comparatively simple than dedicated games
That's player's choice
I feel like most the difficulty just comes optimizing the limited space in the factories . Other factory/systems engineering games like factorio don't have the limited space requirements.
I prefer the Citron recipe for its HoT
i think you prob just need battery..........
U can produce either, buck is better early on bc outposts dont buy citron until maxed
a lot of people go for Buckflower Recipe because its simple

what should i do for this space
touch the grass
Wait, I think I figured it out, I stole the stash xiranite line, obviously, then stole one of the three originium powder lines to make the parts... I don't THINK it'll cause energy issues, might slow my battery stockpile production, but that's ok.
Yep it doesnt affect ur battery
Wait, I might even have enough originium without stealing that line... I forgot I'm doing regional transfer on it ;P
Considering how constraint Wuling is right now
you can't really 100% efficiency things yet
Who is burning more than 2 wuling batteries with the current version anyway
I've got one of those going too
U can do both
going raw Xiranite for trading is a MASSIVE NO NO
Healing only uses ferrium, batteries use originium
(seems obvious, but it needs to be said)
You can do a 100% battery factory + another 50% battery factory + syringe factory
Now
It's done for me
ok, good
3mnts ago
I got out in time
I just run 2 xiranite belts into a protocol stash and then split them 3 ways on the output, so if one maxes out, the other lanes gets the full amount
I had my BPs ready once they're back online
You will not max out the generation of stock bills, but it will not max out until like a month, enough time for them to release full Wuling story (hopefully)
Also my brain isn't working and I need help
I'm trying to get those 3 white blocks into a storage unit before doing the next step
Anyone have a good idea on how to do this elegantly?
Wasting as little space as possible
why would you want to store the crushed ame anyway
the real question is, why building 3 of it?
Do those turn into anything useful? Isnt cryston only for ziplines?
Yeah I feel like the correct answer is to just not store it, since the white blocks can't be used for anything else
When making carbon powder from sandleaf is there any functional difference between burning it into carbon, then shredding it into carbon powder versus shredding it into sandleaf powder and burning it into carbon powder?
And the bottles that have no use
cryston parts is zipline towers
Oh my, yeah I might have produced too much
Oh well
Can't use sandleaf powder to carbon, iirc
There isnt a recipe for that yea
You can. 3 to 2 ratio.
did i miss a recipe??
what
do you guys trade batteries with the first outpost in wuling or should I just make the syringe to trade
Through sandleaf powder into a refiner.
you can carbonize most of the farm intermediaries as well
you just need to dump them into a refinery
syringe can't keep up, need batteries
U usually just send it directly into a refiner tho
alright guess I'm trading some batteries
Its fine. you learn. These limited use items can be done on inefficient lines until you get the amount you need and deleted
Saves on like 50 energy that is wasted on the shredder
Yeah, I really want to at least fill my storage to the limit before stopping the production
Which is better to use in combat, Buck A or the Yahzi syringe?
shrug valid. I know the feeling
is it really a syringe, i thought it was like a spray
it looks like an inhaler to me
Considering that you kinda want/need the Syringe for trading, just use Buck A
It says its a syringe but yea it doesnt look like any syringe that ive seen before
You need both syringe and at least 2 battery factories (1 at a 100% and another at like 50% efficiency) to keep up with the stock bill generation at Wuling
its literally this, but futurstic
And even with that you still will not max it out if you have the perk that generates more stock bills
its real,
Eh, good enough for now
I'm still in the middle of a warzone (ch1), Pelica would be angry
Wonder how many people also just ran away mid warzone and begin factorying
think they inhale the syringe twin
Nice freebies
Thats an inhaler no?
Also where is this 50% number for the second battery factory coming from
yea, but the syringe in wuling despite looking like an inhaler is a liquid meds afaik
well
Is there a Depo unloader building that can be like placed anywhere
I think the inhaler makes sense since it uses parts(which im assuming are circuits of some sorts) and bottles? Maybe its aerosolizing the liquid
Depot Outputs are limited
Awww unlucky
finaaly done 😭
Guess no mass producing batteries like forever
i dont even understand this
which part done you understand
your generator is probably not getting a steady flow of batteries
You are refering to what I said? If so, basically input at half of the rate of what the machine asks (half xiranite, originium powder) so that you can have a xiranite part factory on the side
Back to making the Factory Grow?
how does it go from 0 to 3,4k again
Most likely a non-stable source of your energy source
thats how much your using
blueprint didnt save properly😭
o i just toggle one my batteries every now and then to make my parts when i need em
need help setting up again
ngl speaking of batteries, wuling putting forge of the sky cap to 2 is really limiting so far
Im guessing it's to prevent people from going crazy, since its technically not capped by anything
?
its capped by the amount of water pumps you can pull otherwise
Technically speaking, the entire Wuling Region is not yet fully out
Theres so many streams to pull water from tho
yea, one of my forge is just making batteries and the other is for the armor disk thingy
yo guys what do i do against my sandleaf powder stacking too much in my depot
Its practically infinite
and it would be weird for Wuling Region to only have 2 areas when V4 Region has 6 in total
why would you store the powder form, the throughput is horrible
you can use one depot to unload a sandleaf or 3 depots to load what it grinds into
you sniff it
There is a way to reduce a usage of the originium, my aic use all od them in matter of hour or 2. Lvl 10 valley.. i tried emdgame build, but god my brain fried..
Yeh, if we are to use the V4 AIC tree as a reference, we only progressed a third of the content
Storing Sandleaf powder is a losing proposition
Number gotta go up, can’t let ferrium go negative 
idk i used a bp and the powder goes into the protocol stash
Ok
remember that 1 sandleaf yields 3 dust, you can output 3 conveyor belts from it
time for me to redo my V4 stuff
The only time u store sandleaf is if u physically cant use it anywhere else
i feel like im being lobotomized looking at this
Try using other sandleaf for carbon
it's just not worth storing those intermediaries that has no value or less throughput value.
I hate the factory in 3d view so much

so i just cut the belt?
yes
If my yeild is 1080/1080 does that mean my base will not save any ore I can transfer manually to wuling?
alright thanks
Yes unless u have metastorage
PLEASE help. why does this keep happening?
You know this discord page is strict at their rules right?
yes, the depot will take the ore
Unless u post this on off topic instead
because you move your AIC core
and it becomes farther than 80m from the nearest relay
i didnt though?
How many thermal banks do you normally want assuming you are using HC batts or whatever is the highest energy output
(I just unlocked wuling region)
Aw
splitter> place down more if i'm in the red
or are you just out of power? It looks close enough to link
Is one of ur splitters facing the wrong way
So its like
Thermal T Thermal
(T being the splitter)
wth yea,. i guess i ran oput of power? idk how though. LMAO i think cause i sold all bateries before they made more? idk
im cooked
just transfer some HC batteries
^
manually into them
i sold thouse too XD waiting to make some
If u let em fill before u start selling it should be fine, since it will take 33 minutes for a full thermal bank to run out a fuel 
the thermal bank is one of the few machines that doesnt need a full belt feeding it, and the splitter does exactly what the name implies
i made 6/m capsule, idk if it's small enough though 30x40
too big
which part/s are big
can only fit 1 in sub
Coz his using outpost not his main PAC
i should've said that in the first place lol

my outpost is currently making 6 battery and buck but need 1.5 sandleaf 1 dense origin and ferr power
took way too long to make
the fun of a factory game is designing your product line, then it fails and you have to rebuild it
Anyone have a good buck capsule B farm? Mine sucks rn
most of the time me going "wait is this 2 per 2 second or 1 second" and messing up the plants lol
not to hard to build but insane to minmax
check bluyeprints tab right under this
Did some trial and error and I think I've finally found a good balance.. 18 meds+Citrome and 18 batteries per minute.. with some extra Citrome C with all the amethyst I have
everything about the factory in this region is so scuffed
It's all wuling stuff I already have lol
whats the max amount of amethyst per m
240
gotta fine the last 40
we need more forges lol
yeah, it just ends in an uncomfortable spot
basically everything I need for progression is in Wuling
Surtr weapon essence only drops in Wuling
gold gear needs Wuling bills and Xiranite components
twilight drops in valley too
in valley 
I do the double factory, it looks better but I know we don't have enough ferrium yet
isnt this supposed to produce seeds infinitely?
mostly because you can funnel the items through the reactor crucible
I hope this are still useful in the future
change plant with seed machine and vice versa
your seed machine needs 1 input 2 output
I wish there was a way to zoom out further
yeah, I was in the middle of designing a double layout because yazhen makes 2 powder, but I wouldn’t be getting ferrite quickly enough
use a 50or40x1 belt bp
You need two planters, one connected back to the seed picking for infinite loop
i see 3 belts going out so no, 1 plant makes 2 seed, 1 seed makes 1 plant so you need to only output 2 belts else the seed picker doesnt get any plants
Wanna ask, do i need to manually gather for these milestones or can i just use a planter machine to achive it?
you can
I still fcks my head up that in Wuling it is viceversa the planting process
some stuff cant be planted through aic, but if you want to you can do it
u can plant it in the field which is in science park and wuling city, locked behind quest
oh so i need another device?
yes
how does this work?
game increases fov, to see the bigger bp picture
planting or seedpicking?
opinions
1 seed pick, 2 planting
If the battery number reads 2.4k/3.4k how many purple batteries am I burning per hour?
the factory must spagetti
1.1k per purple battery
Yeah, it drops Twilight, but not ATK boost, so I have to skip
each battery lasts 40s
i love doing sims
stroke of genius, emphasis on stroke
wip symmetric base 
wuling design ah factory lol
she stroke on my genius till i spaghetti
yoooo finally someone did the thing
how much percentage recommended before you sell or buy
it's not about the percentage
it's about the actual margin you get from buying -> selling
click the item, and check your friend prices
nice
the space between them is killing me but you got it
so just need to get a few plants and sit back and wait for the stock bills
ain't that just the tutorial blueprint lmaoao
im planning a full on makeover once i get all the upgrades
no it's this
good work though love to see ppl try it for themselves
somehow even worse ewww
can one full productive packager making batteries feed 5 thermal? or just 4
the default blueprints are so comically bad
yeah thanks for the 3 length conveyor for absolutely 0 reason love you for that
4,
1 battery per 10s
thermal uses 1 per 40s
For blue batteries (10 ferrium parts 15 originium dust) do I do 1 ferrium 2 dust input into packager?
i do feel like it's on purpose
Ah, so beautiful... Still, I know that I will somehow find another excuse to remodel my factory...
since using blueprints means you interact with the game less
the factory doesn't give them any money, they don't care if you interact with that part of the game less
the factory is part of progression
gotta maximize every possible depot unloader
factory is literally the story
i just spent 30 minutes trying to get rid of 2 wasted columns in my blueprint
For sc batteries do I put 2 inputs of dust and 1 ferrium parts for most packaging efficiency?
also are there upgrades that make refining more productive
no
Hello I am about to enter Wuling and wanted to optimize my stuff but I am running out of minerals and did not even touch the 3rd outpost .-. am I missing something and is there like a guide? I could list what I have if that helps I am at a loss why I keep running out ngl
if you're running out of materials that means you're using more than you have
you can make them go faster by placing down more and let them run side by side
does this look better?
I know but I don´t even use all Depos
open your protocol management and find the reds in your theoretical yield
whats the point in the spit into a stash
loop?
Already did that I managed to get it where my output = input
why do we need 8 compressed iron cubes to make 1 medicine
leveling up your regional developement level increases the ore mining rate, that might help
But I still have 1 empty outpost
wuling's ferrium is limited rn, the only other way is to increase region development to unlock more spots
it is at 9, close to 10
Hah, that realization that not everything has to be a production line. I can just have a lone packaging plant to manually insert materials to make things like bombs as needed without sucking constant resources.
outside of that, if you like manual labor you can mine them yourself
I am not at wuling but don´t I have places there to build too? so I just need more xD
lads, i'm in debt
No I have more space to build then too so I don´t think that solves much xD
R.I.P
is this the right input for sc batteries? wanna make more just wanna know if this is efficent
it works but it's not efficient, needs more ferrium eventually
even though you can't find them in v4
2 dust 2 ferrium? thats all I need to know thought 2 dust 1 ferrium was fast
or am i tweaking
they just need to be produceable iirc and since there is technically water sources in V4, u can produce em as long as u have 1 to start out with
I have an empty outpost and space on the HUB but if I build anything there I am loosing ores so I can´t use the third outpost at all rn
1 belt moves 1 item every 2 second, so that recipe actually needs 5 input to be optimal
idk
screenshot your ore yield
would it be optimal to do 5 inputs or just make multiple
sec
would be great if it worked like that for xiranite LMAO
i still don't know how it works, are these just freebie items?
yea
that's funny
I could do 3 from both sides of base and 2 depots and have two packagers
endfields machines are rather big and you can only build in a confined space so your better off trying to fit 5 input
for being a good endmin and getting region development lv12
Well, you can actually have a production line for every single useful material/item in the game while also running the selling products, but you better do the math to see how much time it would take for them to deplete the resources and what will happen first: Will the ore run out or the material max out?
just fo all from depot unloaders
the actual pac is hella inconvenient
the most optimal way is make a line that proccess the raw ores straight to what you want, even then theres alot of room to place down, so you can just b urself
Can u upgrade main PAC or storage space. Cus i only can store 14k items
Where 🤔
Ohhhhh
perhaps endfield needs more tutorial...
i got too efficient
I am making 18/A and 18/HC a min, should I do anything with my amethyst or is this enough for lots of money
first tutorial should be the baby shape matching game
i personally make amethyst parts to use for depot
bombs too ig
You can use it to produce C
also cause you need amethyst to build factory units so i never run out
Not necessary, but you can do it
OK i will look at the options thanks
- Outpost for Blue and Green Batteries
2&3 Batteries & Capsules
Rest: HUB Base
Put of curiosity has anyone been able to get import blueprints on ps5? Everything I try, I'm never able to input the entire code.
Ok what is meta storage?
U can transfer 1500 worth of materials to wuling at no cost to your coffers in V4
bro
With the more expensive materials like batteries counting as 5 worth of materials each
you are literally yielding more than you're using
level up the region and you'll have enough
Which defense tower should I use
you spam down the tesla then figure out the enemy pattern as they slip
what's the maximum rates for orignium/ferrium in wuling?
just producing C with amethyst just in case. and i use extra sandleaf powder for depot
I build 1 more fac and hat to shut it ´cause I made loses xD rn I do but I still have space to build stuff. I did not know leveling up gives that much of a boost I´ll try, thanks (:
there is always extra sandleaf
560 originium, 1080 ferrium is the max
this looking good
just gotta get the lv 12 regional
Ferrium is like 90 in wuling 
Not me just realizing you can plug these defense towers in to make the farming faster
Yeah, I have some spots where I just delete a single belt or reroute to refill something like amethyst parts, but manual placement for bombs works nicely. Guess I could just turn the gearing unit on and off too
yeah no, I get that the intent is to strongarm you into factory complexity via steel, and I'm fine with that. I want to know what the max rate for orignium is, mainly
bro skipped past the explanation
There’s nothing to use steel for in wuling
batteries
you talking about wuling batteries?
wuling batteries 💔💔
I'm not
The only thing you transfer into Wuling is Ferrium cause you're hardcapped
how are folks keeping up with the fund exchange? I have each outpost in valley making buck A 6/min that uses the entire field and it isn't enough to buy the funds faster than they generate so I have to use the hub to make batteries and sell those
And its the only thing that actually makes a difference
full field? an entire field of fully upgraded subpac?
ya
I think you need a better factory
anyway, I'll ask it again since nobody answered: what's the maximum rate for orignium in wuling?
gotta refine your factory
6/min is less than half a subpac
lemme log back in and I'll show production screen
my subpacs are 60% empty 40% production
I dont even know what to spend these bills on, its so criminal that the engraving permits in Valley arent usable for Laev weapon cause its in Wuling
😭 wuling so broke i just realized i maxxed out production with only 1 base upgrade and unlocking depot busses
i thought i bought out everything
i guess just stock pile stuff from store
just buy permits wdym
They dont work with Laev tho and essences for non main dps is basically pointless
just hoard them for later
here it is, this is barely enough to keep up with funds, there has to be a better way right?
Like every new unit coming out is gonna be from Wuling
u can get decent production in wuling with no upgrades
where is your capsule a
why are we producing
canned citrome
hipster
does anyone have a blueprint for beginner (asia)? im not sure if my factory is quite optimized 😭 this is my progress so far, no blue ore yet
they're the same ?
wirr your amethyst krk
...
kek
I dont think your factory is the problem
💀
how much does canned citrome sell for in valley pass and power plateau
time to play pylon cable guy simulator
mmm batteries for selling
anyone else filling up random pools with liquid xiranite for the goofs
this must be ragebait
what is problem then?
they're the same recipe just different plants red vs yellow same price
you dont have enough mining areas powered
i am genuinely new please forgive me 💔
we all are new
so grab those pylon cables and go cable guy simulator
and i have no idea what im doing with my factory
i'm telling ya, endfield NEEDS more tutorials
I wish valley 4 pylons were like wuling's
uhh, why can i only type and input 17 letters while every code i see is 21
dont need to constantly fight it
because they include letters too
I'm not at my computer rn screenshot the trade options for valley pass
filled mine with jincao
it heals you know
wuling's pylon is more comfy to use, but i like valleys pylon more, it promotes you trying to min max the cable length through knowing the route
the greentooth device is ready to pair
Surely they will unlock it for us to freely use it in every region after Wuling story
its the same for letters
But then adding those pylons to the high up ziplines are a pain
ft me trying for 5 minutes to reduce cable length by .1
clearly superior space chinese wireless technology for space china only 
I;ve it off, then why is it still filling??
place the pylon on top, then drop down
next region the pylons will just be volcanoes or something lmao
quantity allowed off just means any number of fluids can go through it
next region they're just gonna make the machines wireless
Surely there is some sort of overclocking system and T2 belts down the line with all this xiranite miraculous material, right?
most of the time, you wont find another 3x3 spot to place a big relay

so we have the same rates 18 & 18 but it's not enough to keep up with the fund exchange when you max all three outposts, you will drain all your batteries and won't have any to fund wuling
it's important to send HC batteries over to wuling because you'll be doing the same thing there
making the syringe and selling wuling batteries
huh
HUH..... ughhh.... is there a way we can make some kind of switch?? like to switch between 2 containers?
Does anyone have wuling battery 12/min??
Is there a way to increase liquid flow rate in wuling ?
not really i think
just use more pipes 
nothing in the aic factory is upgradeable outside of the depot buses and area expansion iirc
nvm ig seems like nobody has a better recipe
Next region will insert inputs that are not whole numbers
ain't helping me tho
I keep the outposts broke permanenty
since flow rate is only 2/s
2 pipes = 4/s, simple 
if you're asking bout Wulings outpost, you cant keep them broke
you can
you can if you send the hc battery to wuling
Tbh, should i worry if red is poping up. I do have 3 buck A now
your batteries are getting drained? how
bro I got like 10 pump and flow rate is still 2
you dont even have to send HC to wuling for them to stay broke
why is my bottle filling up faster than my powder when they both have 2 output
slower output
at high enough regional development you get exactly 1080 ferrium
have you tried using separate pipes instead of chaining them all into one pipe
whats the meta ratio?

a single pipe will always be 2 per 2 seconds, so you add more parrallel pipes
i mean, have both items output with 1:1 ratio
why 9 batteries usage
that's correct but your buckleaf bubble thing isn't max efficiency
yea but somehow the bottle slot is filling up faster
I'm at lvl 11, so idk if thats enough or i am missing something lol
placing down more depot doesnt make the belt faster, same goes for pipes
its not?
that means you're overproducing bottle, or underproducing the healin material
Sending batteries to wuling is sustainable ?
But what do you need the higher output for? Iirc, all the machines only use half of the pipe flow
how ppl are needing more than 6 batteries
you mighr be missing a mining spot then, i got 1080
defense towers and ziplines
which blueprint are you using?
own
it should be normal
Compact SC/LC battery setup, feel free to give ideas for improvement.
@trail mirage can you check both production rate in AIC report
if you're not making it somewhere else too that is
idk why you have to send batteries to wuling to break even it can quite comfortably self sustain
nice
anyone got a LC wuling battery bp?
whats your output
buckpowder shredding sleeping so not max efficiency
yes
so you mean doing something like that ?
wheres the 5 comming from 😭
yes.
OK i used the amethyst
that's dumb ngl
What do you need all that water for💀 ?
can i get it
yeah i found it, i miss 2
what is your question? I'm using more production than you?
Yeah, that miner extra yield is causing this problem
this is 18 pack a and 18 batteries?
you cant cram more gas onto your car and make it go any faster
im telling you its not that hard to eat wuling bills from outpost
bwo what, im not sustaining with this
yeah idk how you're managing to not sustain lol
also, since im going to wuling next, what should i take notes of?
nvm i see the problem
Are Mark 3 mining rigs better then mark 2 for mining Origium and amythesy nodes?
no
have fun and try stuff out before looking for blueprints
Ok good to know ty
this is like my 3rd day selling to the outpost and i havent ran out a single day
Why do I have to run a fucking marathon to deliver Wuling depot goods , it doesnt even feel worth not using the teleporter
how do i fix 😭
but making pipes upgradable is possible tho
whats the benefit of also making it use water instead of normally planting it
wuling plants
no benefit, water is to grow wuling plants
water is required for the recipe
oh
Hi, is there a table of min-maxing building ratio ?
building ratio?
Example, making a blue component
I was wandering why ppl were getting more than this for 18+18 production
And also if u need energy for turrets, why not drop them amethyst batteries?
Space is plenty
ok fixed
How many building/material to maximise production
Nice
That should yield 19800 bills and the outpost at max bill efficiency generates around 16770... How are you not self sustaining?
ehh prolly not
just blueprints
I’m lf a self-sustaining Wuling base
can i get a bp for a LC wuling battery please
idk...
U don't minmax blues
U're getting to lategame In 2 days
There's no point in minmaxing stuff that's gonna last half a day and be temporary
I only minmaxes wuling base, but that's bc I didn't do any upgrades but wanted batteries and artifacts
you can do the math yourself to find the min
also why minmax blues
is blue gear that serious
mb, its called characters, not english person
And how are you making them run out of bills with that amount? It should only yield you 11340/h with that
I am so confuse
Sure hope you aren’t shipping your goods off site or something cuz idk whats going on here lol

Idk, but i am running out

I want the blue medic and blue battery
For the settlement upgrade
no space to craft amethyst batteries
an outpost requires the full field to setup buckA/citA to be self sufficent with seed/planting
hub uses all space to make batteries and there is a little extra room for small pipelines like misc farms/intermediate materials
Just do whatever set-up
The blue gear not important, not good
Finally got the last Depot upgrade for the Hub
I mean u're doing 18 batteries and 18 of the healing stuff for sell
What else do u make?
Like only this leaves plenty of space if u have upgrades
I really need to get RDL to lvl 11 because man running out of Ferrium is annoying
atleast the ores are permanent and you dont need to find another ore vein to mine
too bad we can't zoom out more, show me what I could do with this small pocket of space
the only free slots are 3 depot unloaders that have enough room to squeeze in some refiners
I need to go to 12 cause I'm using 1080 but didn't had cash for upgrades.
Hopefully my stash of it will last till tmr
Tho even worst case I shouldn't run out of energy
I've finally been blessed with good prices
Well on the plus side I was able to get my science park depot to max lvl
you can't even craft green batteries you don't have enough originium
Never noticed how broken Capsule A was to sell
I'm rn making 2 batteries and 1 pill in hub
1 battery and 2 pills in side bases
(1 = device = 6 per minute)
In sub bases yes, not that much,
Got only 3-4 belts free in one of them
But then in hub I have a lot of free space and whole aic (6 outputs)
its always the standard in valley alongside HC batts.
Its so you can make use of all available resources better
But seriously they gotta remove the cap on Forges because I need more Xiranite going
cap on everything in general, lvl 2 cap on everything is sad
if you want to drag storage around in the dijang it's good
We surely will get at least another 2 forges given that there should be 2 more tiers in the AIC tree of Wuling if it follows V4
But tbh before I started looking for some blueprint codes I just used the system blueprints
its to maximize wuling bucks but involves a periodic manual labour.
its worse than transferring ferrium due to risk of complete factory shutdown if you can't do it for wahtever reason
figuring it out yourself is always more fun than copying someone else's homework
