damn, I'm still not getting Laev's sig. essence

broken apex
small creek
#

Peak factory gameplay

lucid narwhal
#

In that case I did something very very very wrong

crimson inlet
fossil spoke
#

@lucid narwhal heres my wuling plant loop, its not that space efficient cos I make the carbon maker as "attachment" rather than specialized build

broken apex
fossil spoke
#

the actual full build is just for wuling plan generator

lucid narwhal
#

oh I am...confused

#

how are you getting the powder

fossil spoke
crimson inlet
#

so, every 8 grind of essence for laev's signature weapon, you get a pity chance for a full 3:3?

lucid narwhal
#

oh okay

fossil spoke
#

u can experiment with it @lucid narwhal

Arknights: Endfield Blueprint Sharing Code: EFO017i89oUa66554O0Ai. Copy it and use it in the game.

paper magnet
fossil spoke
#

its SEA tho, so if u play on different game server region, u cant input the BP

lucid narwhal
#

yeah AIC gameplayis genuinely torture for me so I needed to come here for help >_<

#

oh shoot I am in NA region

fossil spoke
lucid narwhal
#

I wish I could be like you guys

fossil spoke
#

the factory must grow

lucid narwhal
#

it's just not fun for me. The problem solving is not enjoyable

fossil spoke
#

ahh, just use BP then

lucid narwhal
#

this is my first factory game. I have not had any experience like in Satisfactory and Factorio

#

but now I am wondering how I go on making the sandleaf efficient, now

fossil spoke
#

and here for the xiranite screenshot (ignore the clog, because its not actually clogging)

lucid narwhal
#

mein gott

fossil spoke
lucid narwhal
#

I am sending feedback to the devs to simplify xiranite next patch

merry wagon
fossil spoke
#

but, endfield is kinda a good entry way toward factory gameplay

#

since my friend enjoy endfield more rather than satisfactory (he died when doing satisfactory pipes)

lucid narwhal
#

this game made me not want to buy factory games at all so I'm glad I got exposure to this lol

merry wagon
lucid narwhal
#

so now I can just come here if I need advice which is great because you all have the braincells, while I'm sharing mine with Chen and Tangtang

fossil spoke
lucid narwhal
merry wagon
#

imagine if mobs can actually destroy our factory

fossil spoke
lucid narwhal
#

I think I'm mainly upset because I spent weeks trying to optimize, and most of my gameplay ISN'T even combat...it's trying to set my factory up for a single item, then tearing it down for another item later on

#

only to find out I did it wrong, therefore wasting my time

shrewd knoll
#

i wouldnt mind that if they had turret upgrades

#

they are kinda slow right now

also what is v2 and v3??? are there more valleys i am unware of?

#

are you using thermal banks for this

#

u can place a zipline on top of the hill near the wuling ecofarm

small creek
#

decreased facility count by 31, and abt 10 for the subpac

merry wagon
small creek
#

also decrease power consumption by 5 🤯

somber briar

If only i know reaching this place is hard, i would utilize those random blue zipline earlier

Why not

small creek

yay

#

well

shrewd knoll
#

automated artillery trains

small creek
#

it starts with designing your own factory

#

and then it ends with not being able to sleep at night because of ideas flooding in your brain

#

"wait but what if i do this" and "nah i think i can do better"

#

and then when you implement that change, you think of yet another improvement ICANT

#

like yesterday i thought 28 fac reduction was my limit but eventually i hit 36

vestal tiger
#

At endgame, even when I have no content to do, I can always come and dismantle and redesign my entire production line for fun

#

Which I'm going to do
The aim this time is to reduce the number of buildings in wuling city by compressing as much things to put them in the stockade
This is so I can finish my project of surrounding the entire main pac with liquid containers and filling them with liquid xiranite, jincao, and yazhen solution

#

For fun

small creek
#

i ran out of things to automate so now im automating alluvium

#

and my conclusion is to... raise snowshine.

#

if nefarith really wanted to stop us, she could've just ripped out every single sandleaf in power plateau

vestal tiger
#

Just burn it all

somber briar

#

the power of sandleaf guides us all

manic cargo
#

We need higher power capacity so we can min max power

sharp plume
#

get more thermal banks

#

max out expansion

sharp plume
#

make all factories dedicated to battery making + thermal banks

sharp plume
#

if I did the math right

manic cargo
#

10/min of ores only gets you like 60-120 power depending on if you do originium or HC

#

HC is only 2x as efficient as plain old originium

sharp plume
#

(367.8k - 200)/(1.5k) = ~380

analog elbow
#

500 thermal banks

sharp plume
#

oh

#

madlad

analog elbow
manic cargo
#

You can get the whole factory in 4 HC batteries + 1-2 originium or 1 LC if you set up ziplines

sharp plume
#

well

#

I don't use ziplines

are u in US EUR?

would u be willing to share it?

#

there's a

#

STOCK MARKET?

winged raptor
#

yeah...

sharp plume
#

bruh no one told me

#

why is this not in the tutorial

winged raptor
#

the reason you need lots of friends in this gamePerliWheeze

#

it is though

crimson shadow
#

can anyone tell me how to even begin getting power in wuling? or do u just start by spamming thermal banks with HC valley batteries until u can start producing xiranite batteries of ur own

sharp plume
grim anvil
#

Are we ever going to get more forges in the sky?

#

I don't want to min max my factory right now if we get more of it in the future

winged raptor
sharp plume
#

ah

winged raptor
sharp plume
#

i thought it was just buyable items for consumption/gear

winged raptor
#

buy low, sell high. but not all low

#

alway pick the sell high

grim anvil
sharp plume
#

literally

grim anvil
#

I'm out of money sinks I just buy goods since no cap regardless of price

winged raptor
grim anvil
#

I only buy sub 1000 goods

winged raptor
#

i got low price and sell high combo lmao

vestal tiger
winged raptor
#

nah i ain't risking it for now, it might drop

#

and i need the bills

safe cloak
#

i really need gryphline to add a option to remove all blue structures from your map

winged raptor
#

all at once?

hexed geyser
#

did something change in valley 4? i used to be able to do all the outpost managements and have a bit extra but now i can't afford them

winged raptor
#

because you can remove them

hexed geyser
#

idk if i messed something up or if something changed

runic epoch
hexed geyser
#

this is what im making rn

#

i dont remember what it was before but i think it was the same?

viscid plover
#

maybe that?

hexed geyser
#

wouldn't that mean i need more resources tho?

#

i don't think i've touched my valley 4 aics in like 2 weeks

viscid plover
#

wat...?

hexed geyser
#

like if the outposts are making more money then i need more resources to get that extra money

#

at least thats what i thought cause i haven't bothered to do it yet

viscid plover
#

your previous statement contradicts your current statement

#

i thought you mean you can't afford to clear out the outpost curency ?

hexed geyser
#

yeah i don't have enough batteries and buck capsules

#

sorry if my wording is wrong

viscid plover
#

so if they generate faster money, you would need more battery to clear the outpost currency

hexed geyser
#

yeah, my point is that i don't have enough batteries or buck capsules rn

#

was just curious if smth changed cause i don't have enough but i don't think i changed anything

viscid plover
#

if you didnt change anything i really can't think of why
maybe you use more battery than before if you did put up more zipline

#

just spitballing

leaden drift
#

that amount should be enough maybe ur not making enough amyethyst bottles and buck C?

hexed geyser
#

yeah i did put up more stuff but afaik it doesn't increase battery usage?

viscid plover
#

yea it wont unless you put up more thermal bank

hexed geyser
#

i've never bothered to make amethyst bottles or buck c cause i had enough of the other ones

leaden drift
#

thats extra stuff to sell to the outposts

hexed geyser
#

im just confused what happened cause i used to be able to afford everything and still have leftovers

viscid plover
#

time to grow the base

hexed geyser
#

yeah ig ill have to grow the factory lol

scenic comet
hexed geyser
#

i've just been using the main aic only base lol

#

but nothing changed in terms of the factory?

scenic comet
#

you need to make 93% of that to drain stocks compeletly

#

your outposts generate more stocks/hr as they level up

hexed geyser
#

how much do defense levels affect it?

#

cause i haven't done any except for one level 2 so i think i was making enough but yeah ill expand

leaden drift
#

i think like 15%

hexed geyser
#

just confused cause nothing changed but now im out of resources lol

scenic comet
#

auto defense is easy if you follow a guide KEK

#

worth doing you get STONKS

hexed geyser
#

i've just been too lazy to lol but yeah i should start doing it

#

been addicted to rhodagn

runic epoch

my outpost levels have been the same for like 2 weeks

i just wonder if anything else affects it cause i have been finishing a lot of quests and exploration

I think everything xiranite is wuling exclusive?

So xiranite towers probably won't even work outside wuling

tiny wind
#

Is it fine using 10 unloaders for 1 production line?

Or should i split 1 sand leaf for all 4 processor

runic epoch
#

1 sandleaf gives 3 powder
Use that as you will

#

And 10 is normal for something like med a

tiny wind
#

Its Already on powder form

runic epoch
#

More efficient to shred it on the production line

tiny wind

I see

#

I wanted compact as possible PerliWheeze

But i guess power problems?

I'm assuming you're unloading the powder from the busPerliWheeze

just maximized my aic on wuling, what effecient blueprints do you guys use?

and i guess if you have two forge of the skys i would make a xiranite bottle maker/filler

sonic plank

im pulsing power to have an avg power output

what do u even have running

no

#

that will be around 275 ish power

im running 2.16/2.2 with max zips and turrets

im gussing u have no busses right

so im honestly wondering how u got 2.46

#

wait

leaden drift

small creek
#

buses use power?

leaden drift
#

no

viral wharf
# sonic plank why?

By power cycling, you can reach average power outputs that aren't a multiple of your batteries' power.

leaden drift

i have stuff like this randomly around

#

Was wondering why I was using so much in Wuling already, till that

#

Think ima have to use the splitters more effectively on my farm too

analog elbow
#

What's with these eco farm layouts

shrewd knoll
#

the pipes dont use any protocol

analog elbow
shrewd knoll
#

you can go crazy with them

#

and make wuling a pipocalypse

viral wharf
#

Oh really?

#

Nice, I'll keep it that way then

shrewd knoll
#

its just the farm tiles and sprinklers uses a lot

viral wharf
merry wagon
#

there's a layout that makes your teammates harvest every single plant while you stand at the center

can someone share me a zipline on this mountain (asia)

merry wagon
crimson inlet
willow beacon
#

or laeva

#

they're both the same

#

whatever can get both stock bill perks is perfect

#

or if you're really stretched thin, give it a "outpost stock bill" operator when you go to sleep and then swap it out for "trading stock bill" when you trade

carmine igloo
#

Does anyone have wuling Mega base?

willow beacon
#

like i have perlica in reconstruction rn, then i swap her for alesh when i trade

#

same thing just more effort

willow beacon
#

pick your fav and run with it

brittle mauve
#

oh wait which op should i put in the stockade

willow beacon
#

wulfgard

brittle mauve
#

wulfgard? for the stockade?

willow beacon
#

yes

brittle mauve
#

ok

willow beacon
#

anything with these two perks is optimal

#

regardless of outpost, look for those two

#

outpost prosperity is fine for early game but once it's max level it does literally nothing

brittle mauve
#

who is optimal in the others?

#

i have antal chen and snowshine iirc

shy gate
#

I need some advice, So I have 3/3min on SC, 2/2min on HC and 2/2min on LC wuling batt. I observed the power use and output for 20 minutes and the output fluctuates to 1.9k to 2.3k to 5.6k. Is it safe to say that my factory won't be backed up during the nights I am not online?

brittle mauve
#

no wait i think i threw in pog

willow beacon
#

OR alternatively
laeva
yvonne
gilberta

#

reason for this is there is nobody with the double perk (afaik) so you use this while you sleep for the passive income

#

then when it's all generated and you're ready to trade, swap it for this

#

it's the same benefit as having both but with way more effort

brittle mauve

#

ye

and wulfgard perma in the stockade?

#

awesome thank you

#

im gonna be forcing a ton of battery production so this helps a lot

willow beacon
ancient zinc
willow beacon
#

can make 12/min

brittle mauve
#

at the very least while the stockade is being leveled

shy gate
#

It was still stable before I logged off but fluctuates to what I said earlier which was 1.9k-2.3-5.6k

#

What would be the most efficient use of ferrium in this case as 90/min is the max usage? Evenly spreading it between 2-3 packaging units for power?

royal eagle
#

Guys how ppl are making 12 syringe from 90 ferrium ?

willow beacon
royal eagle
#

How are they making 12

willow beacon
#

you can sit in dijiang and manually import 10k loads ferrium yourself

small creek
#

if u take the daily avg, they arent

willow beacon
#

it’s not sustainable in any way though

#

they just do it for the screenshot

small creek
#

sudden night
royal eagle
#

They made factory so we can automate and ppl are making Emanuel factories

subtle finch
#

is it normal to have small dips like this?

jovial breach
#

Yes

#

For no reason

#

Everyone has that

willow beacon
# royal eagle Whaat

you can also make loops of filling units and separating units to inflate the fuck out of report statistics

#

again, for no real benefit

royal eagle

some mf had like 2000/min jincao drink or something

This is max for syringe c ?

jovial breach

#

Is 12 buck capsule A per min enough?

small creek
#

u can do better

somber snow
#

12/min isnt the max

#

its 18/min

sudden night
#

I know that

#

I'm following Kyo's blueprint

small creek
#

idt its enough exhaust outpost income if thats what youre asking

somber snow
#

dont rly understand what you mean by enough,
if you mean bankrupting the outposts, no

#

but for good income,
for now, yeah it should do

sudden night
#

Then I'll set-up 2 more plants

#

I have 1 outpost and a good chunk of space on main aic

#

you can boost it with meta transfer

and manual transfer

severe nexus
#

@craggy whale more compact 5 item clump generator built using black magic

severe nexus
#

black magic

craggy whale
#

how did u timing it up

sudden night
craggy whale
severe nexus
#

left part same idea as previous machine, every 64 seconds you make a gap in the black belt

#

this lets the white cube slip through the gap, during which time the batteries are drained off to the side until the white cube returns to block the flow

craggy whale
#

is that the full ?

severe nexus
#

yes

paper magnet
#

time to scrounge up another 40 pulls 😭

severe nexus
#

to set up you need to saturate black line, then put 1 white cube into the battery line to block, then just send batteries

somber snow
craggy whale
somber snow
#

by the time you get to wuling,
youd use fluffed jincao powder or yazhen syringes instead

severe nexus

#

PerliWaaaaa that ferrium usage though

severe nexus
#

bruh i forgot to do my dailies while i was building this

somber snow

somber snow
#

maybe u're using ferrium somewhere else

sudden night
#

Let me see

wet pagoda
#

18 heals is exactly 1080/min

craggy whale
brittle mauve
#

ok so what do you gotta do to slow a belt down for the battery starving

wet pagoda
#

split the belt

atomic fiber
#

splitter PerliStare

severe nexus
#

EFO019A61UiE9AeAo5uI2 (na)

sudden night
#

These are going towards battery making

brittle mauve
#

🤨 ok

atomic fiber
sudden night
wet pagoda
severe nexus
sudden night
#

And 3x this for 18 bucks

sudden night
severe nexus
#

the batteries are on the same line so it doesnt drain to the side while the white cube is there

#

and white cube stays there until theres a gap in the black belt

#

and the amount of time it takes for the white cube to reenter the system and block again is enough for 5 batteries to pass

sudden night
severe nexus
#

and im pretty sure 5 items is the smallest group you can generate with this kind of design luckily

wet pagoda
#

after buckflowers

sudden night
#

A bit more

wet pagoda
#

show em

#

to see where the extra ferrium is used

somber snow
craggy whale
wet pagoda
#

i see, you do steel part

#

that the extra comsuption

sudden night
#

I don't even remember where I put them

#

Let me check

craggy whale
#

but u cannot add the number of it one by one

#

?

severe nexus
#

you probably could if you cheese it with protocol stashes

wet pagoda
#

you should have 180/min, but you have 240/min

craggy whale
severe nexus
#

no there can only be 1 white cube

#

otherwise thats equivalent to doubling the interval

atomic fiber
#

@craggy whale are you asia or EU/NA?

craggy whale
atomic fiber
#

ok

severe nexus
#

well actually you could maybe have 32s timer, then use 2 white cubes to get groups smaller than 5

craggy whale
#

@severe nexusbut dont u need specific amount of carbon at that pint

#

point

severe nexus
#

not for carbon no

#

just need enough for black belt to be full

#

using 2 white cubes for two phase group generator also works

#

i think

brittle mauve
#

wait what is the purpose of this

severe nexus
#

turns out the timer doesnt need to be changed since it just alternates between the two controls

brittle mauve
#

are these all for stalling?

atomic fiber
severe nexus
craggy whale
#

try to adding the number of the white cube

atomic fiber
#

damn... bug abuse PerliWheeze

craggy whale
#

but it makes it worst

#

lol

#

so it only works for one?

#

but theres a chance that battery will go to the cube and carbon split part tho

you can have 1 white cube for 1 phase design, or 2 white cubes for 2 phase design

#

i dont think theres any point in having 3 or more white cubes

craggy whale
#

doesnt this will have a chance that battery will go to stash

atomic fiber
severe nexus
craggy whale
severe nexus
#

so battery always drains to the side

#

i have it running and i dont have any batteries leaked into the stash

#

make sure you dont have any extraneous holes on your black belt

severe nexus

#

god i dont understand anymore

craggy whale
#

since adding 1 more belt adding 2 battery

severe nexus
#

like make the number of items outputted be specific?

brittle mauve
#

wont the rate that batteries leave the aic be the same

#

im so confused on the battery slowing

craggy whale
severe nexus
# severe nexus

you can just use this then, as long as the white cube gets to the converger on time, the number of items outputted will be the distance between that converger and the downstream splitter

#

and not on the distance the white cube has to travel

craggy whale
severe nexus
brittle mauve
#

is there a way to manipulat the splitting

severe nexus
#

there is splitter prio as well

brittle mauve
#

how is it determined?

craggy whale
severe nexus
#

if you have a splitter with 3 outputs with item controls, with the first cw one being of item a and the other two being of item b, and you send alternating item a and b, it will only send to the first cw output of item b until it is full

craggy whale
#

xd

brittle mauve
#

cw?

severe nexus
#

clockwise

brittle mauve
#

ohh ok

fresh sphinx
#

If I want to send 1 item every 6 seconds, how do I do that?

#

I was experimenting with splitters but I couldn't get it. It was either 4 or 8 seconds

brittle mauve
#

the rate at which the aic drains when its underpowered depends on the overall consumption right

craggy whale
sudden night
#

Any idea?

severe nexus
#

i might play around with prio splitters tmr to see if i can come up with something different

brittle mauve
#

are you finding new ways to slow down delivery speeds

theres no certain pattern

you can coerce it with item controls and mixed belts

I'm stupid, I did the math wrong

I thought it was 1/5 of a line instead of 1/3 because I divided the wrong thing lmao

#

What is that? adaptive power or just 1/x very precise

craggy whale
#

it using gate system found by @severe nexus he uses the mix item system

severe nexus
#

someone else found it but i cant find the vid its from anymore

atomic fiber
#

I liked Phantom one more PerliStare

craggy whale
severe nexus
#

i went on their channel and the vid is missing so

craggy whale
#

using less block and block

severe nexus
#

this is what i meant

craggy whale
#

i dont think that will work still

atomic fiber
#

it's a bug btw

craggy whale
#

i guess i have an idea what u gonna do

atomic fiber
#

might get patched

craggy whale
atomic fiber
#

the splitter prio

severe nexus
#

im guessing everything prio related

craggy whale
#

the randomness?

severe nexus
#

bottom belt not being used

atomic fiber
#

randomness is not the bug, that how it should behave PerliStare

#

prio is the bug

craggy whale
#

u mean the top?

severe nexus
#

imo nothing should be random

jovial breach
#

Splitter prioritize certain belt over another

atomic fiber
craggy whale
#

this part?

atomic fiber
#

it's a very old bug actually

#

yet they haven't fix it

craggy whale
#

thats the left

#

wym bug

#

it works tho

severe nexus
craggy whale
#

i dont understand

severe nexus
#

it looks like a different situation than what i was talking about, which is just resetting and incrementing the splitter direction repeatedly

#

this is also explained by a vid i watched that i cant find on the channel anymore for some reason

craggy whale
#

default direction is always counterclock

#

and memory means like the number 123

#

the start point is random

#

but direction still works

severe nexus

@severe nexus its more small but alot works of splitter

If I try to make SC batteries till cost me ferrium and ferrium usage is already capped

craggy whale
severe nexus
#

i cant decipher splitter/converger city

craggy whale
#

it was the blueprint

#

it was bcs the idea was to have 2 or more timer differently

#

to other battery etc

jovial breach
vestal tiger
#

Would it be possible to make a timer

craggy whale
#

by using the gate

vestal tiger
#

Which gate

severe nexus
atomic fiber
craggy whale
severe nexus
#

since splitter seem to have random start direction or smth

craggy whale
#

and let 1 items flowing to converger that not come out from splitter

craggy whale
#

direction no

#

thats why im complainig

#

on their feedback

#

kek

severe nexus
#

lol

vestal tiger
craggy whale
#

this was the original @vestal tiger

atomic fiber
craggy whale
#

if u want to try

craggy whale
#

timer era will be open soon

#

since its easier to calculate

atomic fiber
#

but this doesn't work offline no? PerliSusStare

severe nexus
atomic fiber
#

really?

craggy whale
#

with immature design as well

#

with alot of splitter

severe nexus
#

i really dont know why you want so many splitters and convergers lol

atomic fiber
#

this should be able to be made more optimized too to use less space

severe nexus
#

they make the stuff very hard to read

craggy whale
atomic fiber
craggy whale
#

but im making it smaller as possible

#

what u need to see is just the converge tbh lol

severe nexus
#

well if it works its fine

atomic fiber
#

that will definitely clog

craggy whale
#

ive tried it

severe nexus
craggy whale
severe nexus
#

wdym by 2 timers?

atomic fiber
#

try run that for 3 days straight. many pwm design that is like that got scrapped because it does clog offline PerliStare

craggy whale
#

but you can adjust the output

#

on that gate

severe nexus
#

can we not do 2 timers into a converger or something?

craggy whale
severe nexus
#

hmm you might need something to prevent 2 gaps for that actually

#

if the 2 timers send a signal at the same time

craggy whale
#

wait

#

i think it could work

#

use splitter

#

on that item control

#

but theres no way to know the output of that 1 to get 1 battery as smallest no

severe nexus
#

which item control

craggy whale
#

also i just realize

#

if u add more item

#

u can reduce the ammount

severe nexus
#

hmm ig i dont understand what you are trying to do lol

craggy whale
#

i mean u know why pwm is good right

#

bcs it activate machine every different times

#

1 every 50

#

1 very 60

#

1 every 80

#

it calculated based off how much powers u need and u can have

severe nexus
#

i have not looked into pwm very much

craggy whale
#

it just they deliver every different times

severe nexus
#

what i did read about is there is a possibility of pwm systems crashing the factory due to the differences in the intervals

wet pagoda
#

well depand of how much spare energy you want, and what you lowest battery % you get

craggy whale
#

and also again yea

#

depends on the power u need and can have

#

it just downside outage for few mins

wet pagoda
#

i dit my power regulation, didnt got problem for now, target is like 2.5k

atomic fiber
severe nexus
#

yeah dige or smth

atomic fiber
#

yeah

severe nexus
#

thats pretty much what i use for my v4

#

which reminds me, i need to manually import batteries to wuling again

wet pagoda
severe nexus
#

no

wet pagoda
#

hmm

severe nexus
#

well, i am probably using some at this moment since my backup power generator runs on wuling batteries

#

and i forgot to import batteries for like 2 days

#

nvm theres still some valley batteries left

stark osprey
#

With 2 HC battery lines and 1 Buck A and meta storage online shouldn't I still be able to keep up with the ferium in Valley 4?

severe nexus
#

ferrium in v4 is enough for 3 hc and 3 buck a

stark osprey
#

what's the yield/min for Ferrium at regional 12?

severe nexus
#

1080

stark osprey
#

I guess I was stargnating since the system wasn't consuming any than

fringe summit
stark osprey
#

I just reorganized my AIC there to be able to fit an HC battery setup

fringe summit
stark osprey
#

time to go and make the 3rd hc setup setup

severe nexus
severe nexus
#

nice lol

fringe summit
#

1 belt of originium into 4 thermals will crash

atomic fiber
fringe summit
#

noticed that because I saw a random dip in my exact 2000 W wuling setup earlier in the day

shrewd knoll
#

it depends how you split it

#

since its literally on the line

atomic fiber
fringe summit
#

literally saturated setup

#

it's probably the funny 8s/battery consumption didnt play well with the automanagement cycles

atomic fiber
#

been using this 2 for 1 week. work fine offline so far PerliStare

stark osprey
#

18/min hc batteries finally

stark osprey
#

I finally redesigned my hc line to fit inside a sub aic

atomic fiber
#

belt space seems to help fight against offline clog

fringe summit
severe nexus
#

for v4 theres usually more than enough space anyways

fringe summit
#

what I'm talking about is me consuming EXACTLY 2000 W

wet pagoda
fringe summit
#

so I'm belting 4x originium thermals (200W) + 1 saturated LC wuling (1600) + base gen (200)

#

that crashes once every while

atomic fiber
stark osprey
#

I forgot to connect the belts from the grinders to the steel refiners for the buck A linePerliWaaaaa

fringe summit
#

because funny desync with 8s consumption on originium thermals

#

thermals consume originium at 8s intervals instead of the 40s intervals on batteries

#

fixed it tho

#

I just belt 4x different originium lines, each dedicated to just 1 thermal

#

so it naturally clogs itself

#

like this WILL crash like twice a day

#

this won't

atomic fiber
#

lol

fringe summit
#

the first variation will work if you use a pwm with like +5 margin tho

jovial breach
craggy whale
fringe summit
#

the flow is constant

jovial breach
shrewd knoll
#

just limit it to 3 and give it a 2s buffer

#

it wont fail

fringe summit
#

why I just belt 4 of them separately instead

shrewd knoll
#

since giving it no buffer means it fails when server doesnt update on time

fringe summit
#

not like I'm short on space

jovial breach
#

Literally prefilling fixes it

shrewd knoll
#

prefill just delays it

jovial breach
#

Otherwise there will be slight downtime

fringe summit
#

prefilling delays the decay

#

doesnt prevents the decay

jovial breach
#

What's im missing PerliDerp

shrewd knoll
#

it only works with 4 if you have power to spare but if you cannot regain the power reserve, its going to fail eventually

fringe summit
#

it's always like a tick slower

#

and eventually it will reach a critical failure point

#

where it will dip momentarily

tiny wind
#

Is there a way i can just mirror a blueprint

fringe summit
#

for example

#

look at that 2 hour period

#

and at the originium ore

severe nexus
jovial breach
fringe summit
#

see the tiny yellow part missing in the middle

shrewd knoll
jovial breach
#

Oh mirrored

#

Not duplicate

craggy whale
shrewd knoll
#

so not the way you want to mirror it

craggy whale
#

it should 1 and 3 everytime

#

XD

shrewd knoll
#

and you cant mirror blueprints with water pipes because of the one sided pipe issue

jovial breach
atomic fiber
craggy whale
#

i mean i item is enuff

#

and split it into 2

fringe summit
#

because that's an extra calculation for the server

jovial breach
#

LifengThink cuz logistics units work tick-based?

fringe summit
#

pree much

shrewd knoll
#

its also why you see like -1 on production if you check the long timeline

fringe summit
#

^

jovial breach
#

Hg coding strikes again

fringe summit
#

why you want like a min of +5 power on pwm to prevent critical mass failures

craggy whale
fringe summit
#

10+ is prob best tho

atomic fiber
severe nexus
atomic fiber
#

oh... nvm

#

that not for me

fringe summit
#

I'll just stick with the 4x belt setup lol

craggy whale
#

48 sec delay 3 or 4 items 64s delay 1 item 128 delay or more

fringe summit
#

literally can't go wrong with it

craggy whale
#

is formula to get like 1 extra for charging

#

1 still alive after 8 sec dead

#

msot of em will alive after 64s

#

power outage is relatively easy to calculate than this timing xD

crimson inlet
#

PWM - managing pulses of power usually in miliseconds.

Load balancing/load matching - utilizing various techniques to adjust power generation or load depending on the demand.

D.I.G.E. - applies some principles of both, maybe similar to grid balancing, with the main purpose is to adjust the power load to reduce excess energy generation—saving more battery in storage for selling.

fringe summit
#

still mystifies me how the spaghetti setup havent failed in a week

atomic fiber
#

DIGE is just pwm but for AKE

severe nexus
craggy whale
severe nexus
#

Or between 4 and 5, whichever you meant

craggy whale
#

but im testing it now with timing

#

i mistiming the items xd

#

with my timer

atomic fiber
severe nexus
#

Ah rip

fringe summit
#

intentionally went with one where I have a bigger generation excess

atomic fiber
fringe summit
#

it was exact 2k

#

it's just funny when I found out that originium thermals can fail

#

exact margins for batteries never fail tho

#

because consumption time is large enough

atomic fiber
#

I say you just take too much risk, you shouldn't do exact margin even for battery too

fringe summit
#

this is also why I never bother to do exactly 115 tho

#

because if you fine tune it to consume exactly 115 ferrium, sooner or later the belts WILL fail

#

and you'll just end up using less than 115

#

might as well just overconsume and let it normalize itself

tiny wind
#

Can i create a blueprint on simulators and put it in game

fringe summit
tiny wind
#

Bruh just did built one thinking i can put in game

#

ahahsha

fringe summit
#

or you can go on a gactorio build planner

#

like fbe or something

#

just select similar sized buildings

#

solar panels are 3x3 for example

jovial breach
#

Or use pen and paper

fringe summit
#

pen and paper get messy too quickly from my experience

shrewd knoll
#

just do it in game, your wuling outpost probably empty and use that for a blueprint

atomic fiber
#

get better pen and paper

fringe summit
#

use excel/google sheet if you want custom or just a good old factorio build planner

#

ye wuling outpost works too

#

gui is kinda pepega tho

#

esp for planter modes

severe nexus
#

Me switching a stash to storage mode for the ten millionth time

so it's not bad

but ye stuffs like that

then rarndom power surges too if you forgot that

Using endfield tools boy its a test on mobile those belt not moving ñol

does anyone else feel like their factory is serverely under utilised?

There's simply not enough space in the depot to do things, and sure i could optimise my blueprints to take up less space but ultimately the bottleneck is depot ports right

Do you think we'll get faster conveyor belts so that this changes?

I would move this stuff to wuling but you don't have enough ore there, so in wuling ore/xiranite are bottlenecks

i know i could optimise my space and squeeze stuff in but.. i don't actually need to, the things i'd love to automate (tacticals and gear) can't be made in the factory, so unless i just want to make even more batteries and stuff for stock bills i dont really know what to do
