Ah so wats in ur subs.

?

[valid gazelle]

sc batteries, hetonite

Stashes

[foggy iris]

Makes sense

[lusty violet]

[valid gazelle]

old*

[green sleet]

I find it really funny that the game can use [] in their naming schemes, but its labelled as a forbidden character if we try to use it

[marble yarrow]

wanna have a only main with no subs?

[foggy iris]

U have bp for that xira production?

[foggy iris]

For now

Like i have 3 xiras gourd and lc on main rn

[random estuary]

Are we getting 4 more forges upon phase 2 or next patch?

[valid gazelle]

this is a double line btw

instruction in the thread itself

[meager stream]

may14 will added +4 limit

[valid gazelle]

then i can finally replace my planters of the sky

[nova pilot]

No new sub pac?

[foggy iris]

Ty

[keen badge]

there is a second outpost added to Wuling, if that's what you meant

[meager stream]

no spoiler info so far 😢

[nova pilot]

I mean 3rd Sub

[keen badge]

oooh my bad 🙌

[nova pilot]

Just so we could leave it empty

[foggy iris]

So i dont need individual plantings just use the bp? @valid gazelle

[marble yarrow]

well it wasnt announced in the 1.2 preview

only marker stone is added

[meager stream]

• new map test area
• added +4 forges
• mining spots, 2 of em cupriums
• added depot node

[valid gazelle]

its a complete line. You only need to supply with with 1 conduit connected to 2 pumps

[nova pilot]

Hmmm

[green sleet]

Those 2 cupri spots are gonna be game changers lol

[valid gazelle]

its 13x60 so it can be a bit long

[marble yarrow]

purification node

[foggy iris]

Ayt cool thx

[nova pilot]

We'll cross the bridge when we get there

[meager stream]

about gacha, they will add limited headhunting (pogra ardelia laeva gilberta) & free *6 operator selection (idk in what case or its pure free gift)

[meager stream]

do you know something bout it? 🤔

[shadow void]

new Energy Alluvium

[marble yarrow]

give sewage, get effluent

[meager stream]

like other version of purification?

[fervent lodge]

Headhunting capacity exceeded (32/32). Please stash some operators to place more.

[tidal adder]

Can someone tell me the best blueprint to make the best gear from scratch I have material but I don't how to build it

[shadow void]

What i wouldnt give for some Arsenal Tickets right now

I did manage to get 80 from the credit store today though, luckyyy

[nova pilot]

Take a stroll in #1461542035617091681 ^^

[craggy oyster]

i still dont get how we get eff from it. we didnt put any xir in it and only sewage right? orrr xir is from the land itself

[meager stream]

and about mifu banner & new arsenal, i guess starts from May 22 or 23. And i guess mifu is physical/heat operator with guard/striker type

[tidal adder]

I forgot that channel existed lol

[shadow void]

just a thought, they supply the liquid xir, we supply the sewage, and we split the effluent output

[meager stream]

need 2 crucibles from xiranite mats until this step

[shadow void]

Talking about the Purification Node in Test Area

Wuling or whoever supplys the liquid xir, and we just supply the sewage

it could be like we are cleaning? or reactivating old xiranite?

[marble yarrow]

xiranite chernobyl ground zero

[meager stream]

or like...recycling/returning back to its original

[nova osprey]

might just be a highly efficient sewage to xircon machine in terms of lore/technology

after all to make effluent you need xiranite + sewage, so it wouldn't be too far off to say that the effluent is the result of purifying sewage

[marble yarrow]

27 hours till jade gourd 🔥 🔥 🔥

[meager stream]

noo chernobyl noo 💣

[shadow void]

Xiranite is carbon and ori tho

are we getting the Inert or the Xircon out?

[meager stream]

need additional oroberyl xD

[jagged swallow]

what blue print do i follow

[nova osprey]

indeed, but xiranite is used to purify blight too

[shadow void]

whats your wuling production like?

[jagged swallow]

well mainly from last update

[meager stream]

lemme see again....

[craggy oyster]

not a single ori involved, it wet carbon ahahahaha

[shadow void]

was thinking batteries, or maybe the sandleaf

[dense blade]

ores

[jagged swallow]

not all ores but i have mainly most just not current update

[dense blade]

I recommend getting to aic III first

[sharp island]

Wow 1-2 hrs just to get the hxira up

[shadow void]

if someone has a bp that makes jade gourd, but the bp incorporates all production that'd probably help you the most

[dense blade]

how many forges have you unlocked

[shadow void]

all the bp's i've seen have the heavy xiranite pumped in via unloaders.

[dense blade]

mine has 1/4 from forge lol

and I think you mean reg xiranite

[jagged swallow]

I have all upgraded for AIC 3 but not turret

Turrets i can't be bothered with

[dense blade]

get the mortar

[shadow void]

wont really need the turrets, no new def missions

[sharp island]

I havent checked what does expanded mixer building do

[jagged swallow]

Miss 2 point and i think i do lol

[sharp island]

Can it handle 2 formulas at once

[shadow void]

can handle multiple

[dense blade]

how much originium do you have

[sharp island]

Hmmm

Okay

[shadow void]

you can do passthrougth too if you didnt know

[craggy oyster]

T-The
A-Acient
L-land
O- Of
S-Sandleaf
It's everywhere ahahaha

[dense blade]

if you have 480 you can just opt for 12/min sc + 8/min regular gourds

[sharp island]

?

As in just letting the mat go thru it?

Yeah i know that

[shadow void]

if he can setup Jade Gourds that'd be better for the event

[jagged swallow]

Well i be honest ever since i step into wuling
Is that much we get and till now
They won't give us any new blue ore or orange ore on newer areas T_T

[sharp island]

Thats how i managed 12 bats with my jank of a factory lol

[shadow void]

||we get 2 more cuprium and originium nodes in the Test Area on May 14th||

[final sierra]

best placement :)

[jagged swallow]

Why more cuprium isn't they enough

[foggy iris]

Anyone has hc battery 100% production bp?

[dense blade]

so like, how much is your oringium yield though, I need the numbers to assess to what you can sustain currently

[foggy iris]

Valley

[shadow void]

look at all that surface area

[sharp island]

Not enough buses

[jagged swallow]

Oh ok let me log back in check because i have no idea

[shadow void]

currently we cannot make Hetonite at 100%

[sharp island]

Hetonite needing 4 cuprium fluids is madness

[craggy oyster]

i recommend 2 row of bus in the middle, that should give u 4 working zone for u to build around

[jagged swallow]

Wuling just discourage me to do any pipe or factory due to i might not have time....

[nova pilot]

Server?

[jagged swallow]

Went your lazy

[sharp island]

Wait uh both sky king flats and the marker stone area can take in hetonite parts right

Or something

[final sierra]

will we have recipe for Xiranite Jade Gourd on event phase 2 or phase 3 ?

[jagged swallow]

I dont know if i be able to clear event

[sharp island]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/935823396464394326/1409360777353363608/prts_nay_tung_tung.gif

[nova pilot]

Marker Stone ideal because the acid pond is right there. You need to manually send the acid thru pipes/conduit in Marker Stone or Main AIC

[sharp island]

I mean the uh outpost management

Making the parts is in marker stone

[dense blade]

oh you’re at 480

[jagged swallow]

There none new spot?

[dense blade]

you can use most setups around here

[nova pilot]

Ahh I think you can't sell Parts in the Marker Stone outpost yet cause low prosperity level

[dense blade]

not for originium (yet)

since 1.1

[sharp island]

Even at level 2?

[jagged swallow]

I have lvl 12

[sharp island]

I havent seen what level 2 allows me to sell

[dense blade]

you can’t yea

[nova pilot]

Not sure

[dense blade]

only in jingyu

[jagged swallow]

If i start like tomorrow am i able to clear event

[sharp island]

I know level 1 cant but idk if level 2 marker stone can

[dense blade]

if you start in 4 days you still can lmao

[jagged swallow]

oh cool

[dense blade]

but try to get your cuprium up to 180/min

[jagged swallow]

4 days left or for now to 4 day if not gg

[jagged swallow]

Because i didn't get the new ores for that area yet

[nova pilot]

Make a thread in #1461542035617091681 and #1498875864203526244

[valid gazelle]

but i havent bp'd them yet

[jagged swallow]

Which aic blueprint i should use if not i probably won't start XP

[nova pilot]

Prolly one that meets your current ore yield, regional development level, sub PACs availabe, and AIC steward upgrades bought

[sharp island]

Mark of a software engineer

[dense blade]

I mean as in even if you start the event from scratch within the last four days of the event, you’ll still buy out shop and get the trimmed medal.

[jagged swallow]

Max Lvl

Ah

[sharp island]

I just put all the busses on the edges and then figure out how to do prod from there

Lol

[marsh inlet]

So assuming you can only have 6 cuprium lines going at once (optimally) how would you setup the 8 crucibles needed?

[valid gazelle]

wha ?

[dense blade]

is it shameless plug if I say my bp

[sharp island]

I didnt feel like brainstorming putting the busses to make sections for production lol

[nova pilot]

Nah I was waiting

[dense blade]

you’d have to remove

something tho

[sharp island]

So i just dumped all the busses into the edges

[dense blade]

bc of the 60/min cuprium shortage

[marsh inlet]

(Should I just setup 4 crucibles?)

[valid gazelle]

im a bit surprised you took me for a software engineer

[jagged swallow]

I guess i can use yours ......i found it ....i a start went i free

[sharp island]

What event is this btw

[marsh inlet]

And copy it once we have more cuprium?

[valid gazelle]

how did you get to that conclusion

[dense blade]

the gourds

[sharp island]

Stereotyping

[dense blade]

what else

[sharp island]

You probably arent but yes

[sharp island]

Ok ok

[valid gazelle]

damn... ive been stereo typed

no you are correct..

[dense blade]

if you just rush gourds last min you can still make it

[marsh inlet]

At least ur not an xray tech tryna figure ts out lol

[jagged swallow]

I feel like some of us here might be related to IT

.....i still a student ....

[valid gazelle]

good luck and good work, young padawan

[sharp island]

Me i just care the code works

Probably a nod to how my base looks horrendous and is making max bats and syringes

[marsh inlet]

Halp

[sharp island]

Lol

[jagged swallow]

So true

[marsh inlet]

[sharp island]

Some insane space management ig

I picked one design and just did that for all my xiranite prod

[marsh inlet]

Why would endfield only give us enough for 6 lines

[marsh inlet]

Space isnt the problem

The problem is u can only run 6 lines but u need 8

Should I just run 4 then?

[sharp island]

Well yeah

[marsh inlet]

Or is it worth running 6?

[sharp island]

I mean im choosing to not do max cus it isnt possible to do max output components

And i still need to make syringes

Yippee

[marsh inlet]

I could do that tbh

2 lines for other stuff and the rest for acid stuff

Think ill just do that till endfield stops being cruel

[nova pilot]

4.5/m Hetonite parts or 3/m Heto parts then 3/m Yazhen Syringe A

[sharp island]

Besides 4 forges is 3 hxira/minute

I think?

No its 6

[dense blade]

not an IT but a student too

[craggy oyster]

why do u need 8?

[sharp island]

Problem is components want 12 /min so u need another 4 forges

[valid gazelle]

to run a max efficiency heto or double yazhen/jincao

[sharp island]

And the rest is stuck on bats

[craggy oyster]

all 6 cup into heto only need 6 crucibles tho. u mean the 2 pufficication too?

[valid gazelle]

yes

[craggy oyster]

bruhhh

[valid gazelle]

i'll dibs this

[craggy oyster]

niceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[nova pilot]

If I turn on the shredders and refineries on the right, the purification units won't go zzzz meaning its running at full efficiency

[craggy oyster]

i need to start to stop caring about minimized machine and just get more line up like this

[hasty falcon]

If I have three Fluid Pumps feeding a Manifold Inlet for a total of 180 units of water, is it possible to have the connected Manifold Outlet output 120 units from one exit pipe, and 60 units from the other pipe?
I realize I can solve this easily by just using two regular outlets, but I just wanna know if there is a good way to do this

[craggy oyster]

1 conduit = 2 pumps max. cant do 3 pumps

[random estuary]

3 splitter 1 converger for 2:1 split?

[marble yarrow]

those bridges are a nightmare in all-in-one

[marsh inlet]

2 hetonite solution needed for hetonite production to be optimized

[marble yarrow]

what a clusterfck

[marsh inlet]

You can separate it to make it less clusterfucky

Like for instance I refine my cuprium elsewhere

[hasty falcon]

That doesn't seem correct. My current setup with 3 Fluid Pumps feeding a single Manifold Inlet is sufficiently feeding water to all my planters and forges

[marble yarrow]

my goal is all-in-one. no outpost

[marsh inlet]

[craggy oyster]

use 1 extend cru instead, doing the same as the other 5 cru and doing all the heto solution work too

[marble yarrow]

(i dont like teleporting to outpost to tinker stuff 😭 )

[marsh inlet]

The problem being you need 4 crucibles making cuprium solution, then you refine it to 1 hetonite solution

So you need 8 lines of cuprium

But we only have enough cuprium being mined to run 6 lines

So either way you need 8

[nova pilot]

We get more on May 14

[random estuary]

For now.
I'd rather people show bp for jade guords over 8 cuprium hetonite.

[marsh inlet]

THANKFULLY

[craggy oyster]

i mean now u can. 7 FotS in outpost 1 and u mostlikely never gonna have to tinkered it anymore.outpost 2 only bottle up the axit and stash it, so at main base u can just bring out axit for heto.

[nova pilot]

The problems gonna be the facility and belt limits

[craggy oyster]

isnt this count as the same category

[nova pilot]

*pipes has another limit set

[craggy oyster]

8 is for 100% efficiency heto line. i wouldnt say we "need" 8 in this case lol. we use what the game give us

[craggy oyster]

u said belt lol

[marsh inlet]

No but you dont get my point

For it to be optimally ran

We need 8

You can make it non optimally

[craggy oyster]

ahhh icic

[marsh inlet]

Which is fine

But for 100% speed

We need 8

[craggy oyster]

ye ye

[hasty falcon]

@craggy oyster I turned off all water sources except the Manifold Inlet with 3 Fluid Pumps. You can see it works:

[craggy oyster]

u using the new double one?

[hasty falcon]

Yes, that's the Manifold Inlet

[valid gazelle]

i shall listen to this podcast and put myself to sleep

[marble yarrow]

holy shi Test Area liquid meta storage transfer

[craggy oyster]

im guessing it will be 90/min each so u can split one side to 3 so it 30/min each and link one of the 3 to the other pipe for 60/120. need to test it to be sure tho

[valid gazelle]

aight imma sleep for the night

good night ~

[hasty falcon]

Do you know how to make this split?

[shadow void]

||so we getting 2 extra ori nodes, will we get an RDL increase and get low>high on any others?||

[craggy oyster]

wait a sec, im doing it

[marble yarrow]

bp tutorial:

climb the mountain and pipe acid from there

[craggy oyster]

im running out of cup part to make manifoil conduit f me

[shadow void]

[marble yarrow]

(fuck i cant do this on enkad)

[nova pilot]

I think so

[hasty falcon]

Anything with a pipe outlet works for the purposes of a split. Just need two outlets to work with

[nova pilot]

Ferriums I hope

[shadow void]

all the devs need to do is give us something that does what enkad does, and they could ban dataminers too /jk (atleast that last part)

factory builder companion app

complete with bp export, or even have the bps link up with your ingame bps

[nova pilot]

We need that Unli power setting asap

[shadow void]

quick, someone make that app and sell it for $10 a d/l

[nova pilot]

-# Can't wait to abuse it to save a few SC batts

[craggy oyster]

like this. left side split to 3 and one of it join right side, and then the other 2 of left side joined eachother. left would be 60 right would be 120 assuming it work like i thought

[nova osprey]

holy shit lmao

[hasty falcon]

Thanks!

[shadow void]

Do not look

||#1484103575381737634 message||

[shadow void]

I don't know

[nova osprey]

im just gonna assume yes and run 12/min gourds

[marble yarrow]

nice

[shadow void]

you'll know for sure in less than a day when it hits asia

https://tenor.com/view/money-show-me-the-money-gif-6703020883716708631

if infinite, dump, if not, slump

[nova osprey]

i mean it's the fact that he got the phase 2 shop prices beforehand

[shadow void]

at the least i've got an idea on how much the shops both cost

[nova osprey]

that's what makes it kind of trustworthy

[marble yarrow]

8.1M certs

[shadow void]

6.6 for me

[nova osprey]

huh, wont you have more than that?

[shadow void]

stockbills yes, certs no

148k stored, + 6/m hyv = 73440 over 204 hours

221440

x30

thats minimum

if no stockbills earned we should be getting more credits per gourd

[nova osprey]

ah you're doing 6/m heavy

[shadow void]

so it will be higher, maybe

yeah, factory stays normal that way

[fervent lodge]

i've thought about this, but i think i would still use the planner
the speed of iteration is almost 2x compared to the game just on the interface alone, so unless they make significant snappiness improvements idk

dijiang testing area would be baller

[shadow void]

100%

[fervent lodge]

also because it's dijiang they have an opportunity to make it multiplayer

[shadow void]

a better zoom would massively help along with a UI declutter

[fervent lodge]

pls hyberbryph

[shadow void]

Oooo, nice idea

[fervent lodge]

i really fuckin' wish i could hide those MASSIVE goddamn labels

feedbacked that in beta and they're still there

[nova osprey]

tbh they do have more important changes to implement

[fervent lodge]

single visibility toggle 😭

[shadow void]

wait, you run enkad?

[nova osprey]

but i agree they should change it

[dense blade]

is the 120:30 still speculations or actually datamined info btw

[shut hearth]

WOAH 15 minutes

[nova osprey]

true

[craggy oyster]

fr. they said they increased the zoom, but we can still zoom more if we put a 50m blueprint. so they can do more but they wont let us lol

[shut hearth]

thank you

[fervent lodge]

yeah i made the thing specifically because of the problems you outlined

i just wanted to screenshot my full factory without mspaint debauchery

and then it kinda spiraled

[shadow void]

https://tenor.com/view/steve-harvey-jesus-thank-you-thank-you-jesus-praise-jesus-gif-3461947309210531773

[final sierra]

also nice 👍

• tested some more

[marble yarrow]

when paid subscription to unlock this interface skin

[fervent lodge]

ask riley in my server

he was working on it

but bro said he burned out

[nova pilot]

Badly need this

[fervent lodge]

split it into blueprints, import into enkad

done

maybe it's more work but nicer screenshot

[nova pilot]

Thanks I'll give it a try later

I'm taking way too long trying to align the ss and make them on the same shade

[fervent lodge]

yeah it's ass

[shut hearth]

Napkin math tells me that if I run 14 lines of 4 thermal banks on ori + 1.5/min of wuling batter feeding into a bank, it'll give me a consistent 6000 power

[fervent lodge]

selecting 2 belts 50 cells apart and then doing the move command allows you to zoom out further

[craggy oyster]

a little out of light 'd be fine tho. i only crop middle part where it has the most brightness and it work pretty good

[fervent lodge]

me in beta:

[shut hearth]

is there a way to see how much power is drawn in enkad?

[nova osprey]

oh yeah i never questioned that tbh

[nova pilot]

But big ahh item icons

[fervent lodge]

[marsh inlet]

Ive done it

Hetonite production online

[fervent lodge]

either ctrl+s and look at the file list, or just plonk a thermal bank somewhere with a battery going into it

[nova osprey]

i suppose one problem of doing that is that even though you can calculate how much power is drawn, it's still hard to predict depending on how many ziplines you have put down

[marsh inlet]

[fervent lodge]

yea

[shut hearth]

as long as my 12/min gourd setup is below 450 power i should be good just ignoring valley 4 shenanigans

[fervent lodge]

you know what surprises me

[nova pilot]

Yeah I've learned how to maneuver over it. This is a good example of bad shade

[fervent lodge]

this is a 500k server

[craggy oyster]

oh this is u didnt do the zoom trick tho.

[fervent lodge]

yet the aic channel is relatively dead

is the factory really that niche

[nova osprey]

ikr

[shut hearth]

i think they need to make these events happen more regularly

[nova osprey]

certainly feels like it

[keen river]

its the english aic channel

other languges have their own channels

[nova osprey]

most people who come here to ask questions are asking which blueprints to use

[fervent lodge]

esp with events, in an official server i'd expect an insane amount of yap

[keen river]

#工業雑談・相談 message jp channel seem pretty active

its also hard to tell how big endfield is in west

[fervent lodge]

last message sent 30 minutes ago

[keen river]

its 3:45 am in japan now

[nova pilot]

I prefer the "Bulk Action" page than the zoom out bp cause u can see the belt/pipe logistics more clearer

[shut hearth]

like I complained in my feedback that the factory system is so disappointing how most people just copy paste a blueprint once, and never touch it again for months, and suggested events where outposts favor certain items

so they basically nailed what i asked for spot on

[fervent lodge]

i want a weekly.

[marble yarrow]

200k users is mr beast spammer awaiting activation

[shadow void]

Not to mention its a gatcha game at heart

[fervent lodge]

make 1 weekly delivery require a specific item to deliver

[nova osprey]

i think that was the original intention

there's a few half baked systems too

[fervent lodge]

yeah i think so too

[nova osprey]

like for example the thumbs up trading for outposts

[craggy oyster]

idk it look pretty good to me. not sure about u

[nova osprey]

that was definitely supposed to be something but now it's just.. recommended? as if that makes sense

[fervent lodge]

i think they literally had a full game and then had to nerf it
the same way they nerfed it by releasing sewage in a later patch

we may get the full game over time once the playerbase sticks

[nova osprey]

i hope so as well

[nova pilot]

I try to avoid the messages at the right side

[fervent lodge]

i want rail networks... that'd be peak

[nova osprey]

once player base sticks, it would definitely be easier to make it more factory focused bc most would be used to it by then

[nova osprey]

you play factorio?

[shut hearth]

okay idk how to read this is; is it saying the total power generated by my setup (not including the aic) gives a net loss of 70? so the power of my setup is (battery power) + 70?

[craggy oyster]

ahhhh. this is 3 pics merge. if u want to remove the text complitely i think 9 pics would work, but ye it will be a lot of work ahahaha

[shadow void]

Factorio, Satisfactory, Dyson Sphere Program, etc

[nova osprey]

tbh i haven't played factorio much

mostly because i wasn't really introduced to factory games until a year ago

and no time

[nova pilot]

Yeah, this used 27 if I remember correctly. If I can't see the item indicator I adjust the screenshot so that everything is included

The dark shade on the left ruins it

[nova osprey]

so many random circles

[craggy oyster]

27😭

[fervent lodge]

ironically no
becuase i know i won't have a life

[nova osprey]

lmao

understandable

[craggy oyster]

btw u can just shove the conduit in the middle of the 2 pumps to look better. we still got 9 pumps left and 6 pumps right

[fervent lodge]

just like ingame, 320 is the total power your build takes up, 250 is what you're producing

-70 is not enough power from that originium you slapped in there (250 power prod)

[fervent lodge]

i get my fill by watching Doshington and then never touch the game

[nova pilot]

I did. This was outdated

[nova osprey]

[nova pilot]

It looks off without the 2 depot buses at the top

[keen river]

rail in factorio is so peak

meanwhile rail in satisfactory is utter trash and disgrace for humanity

[nova pilot]

Oh wait you meant the water pipes

[craggy oyster]

the pumps and conduits from teh river

[nova pilot]

The screenshot below is moved to the side cause the rightmost pipes can't be captured normally

[fervent lodge]

like imagine getting on a dirt bike and blasting through a desert to lay some rail networks

[keen river]

yeah

[fervent lodge]

it has the opportunity to be peakest peak

[keen river]

i hope they will add some sort of rail logistics in future regions

[craggy oyster]

i mean this

[keen river]

they could make building rail like it was in astroneer and it probably would be fine

[nova pilot]

Ohh I see, thanks a lot
-# mb I'm kinda light headed XD

[craggy oyster]

it look sooo much better without the conduit and pipes sticking out

[nova pilot]

Yeah I could make it work with the manifolds too

[marble yarrow]

(avoiding conduit coz thats -1 fac count)

[craggy oyster]

not sure cuz rn we dont have anything that need 8 input of water yet. im doing fine with 4 input. plus it more flexible

[craggy oyster]

i would die from cringe of pipes before that

ahahaha

[marble yarrow]

(-2 for inlet outlet pair 💀 )

[craggy oyster]

ohh btw

do u guy think we gonna have an ultra conduits to "teleport" fluid from map to map?

it seem weird to have to pipes all the way up to the new map to use it

also it will solve the axit problems

[marble yarrow]

nope. its ok the way it is. 200m conduit is already great

[craggy oyster]

hang on a second . is the new map an outpost?

[marble yarrow]

no

[stray warren]

You can also just bottle it up and unbottle it as a bandaid solution

Using the filling unit

[shut hearth]

oh okay ty

[craggy oyster]

-200 power for 5 axit and a bunch of facility count 😭😭😭

[nova pilot]

We don't have the option to unbottle or discharge the other liquids (yet) sadly

[stray warren]

https://youtu.be/sdMw-Cfnzcw?t=139

[nova osprey]

all liquids can be unbottled to my knowledge?

just not dumped

[nova pilot]

Wait I should I say this...

[craggy oyster]

we can dump every liquid from bottles i think

[marble yarrow]

my sewage went from main aic to test border with:

(all manifold, and double pipe)

manifold inlet > 200m > outlet > 80m pipe > bridge > 80m pipe > inlet > 200m > outlet > 80m pipe > bridge > 80m pipe then test area

[nova pilot]

You bottle acid from Marker Stone. Then you output the bottled acid in Main AIC into Inlets

Smth like that?

[nova pilot]

Can't dump sewage

[green sleet]

I finally redesigned my hc bat line. Kinda looks like a dome now

[craggy oyster]

yes. but 5 axit = 5 pair of filling-seperating unit = 5x20x2=200 power. and a bunch of facility count

[craggy oyster]

oh right i forgot about this

[nova osprey]

or effluent/inert effluent

[craggy oyster]

nice work. u can add 2 line of sandleaf powder on top to make a square.one sandleaf powder will be wasted tho

[nova pilot]

So you really have to use the Tianjing Pond

[green sleet]

I was thinking about doing 2 powder outputs for the steel, but it increased its outward footprint too much for my liking

For now, ill suffice for the useless line that only serves to be symmetrical lol

[craggy oyster]

u mean it gonna be too high?

[green sleet]

Well id be subbing 1 output of sandleaf for 2 outputs of the powder on the sides, increasing its footprint by 3 and changing its symmetry

[craggy oyster]

no no. i mean u said it look like a dome right. but if u add 2 infinite sandleaf ontop and then put the sandleaf shredder in between the shredder row and the grinder row, u will have 6 input of sandleaf powder for 5 grinder, and it will be more square that way

[green sleet]

Oooooh. Damn thats a good idea. I do like my squares

[craggy oyster]

still symmetrical

6x5 grinder =30
6x5 planter/seeder also 30 it match perfectly

[foggy iris]

Eu

[vale bramble]

after 2 days of constant acid dumping, i present to you, my new pool

im going to dump the most expensive fluid in wuling here when region 3 comes out and hetonite becomes useless (never.. probably)

[river wadi]

Heavy liquid xiranite

[vale bramble]

forgot about that

[late crag]

is this a good way to make SC valley battery ?

[vale bramble]

i have a feeling that you're underfeeding your packaging unit

add more machines..?

[late crag]

more shredding?

[craggy oyster]

zzz = not enough input, red Φ = too much input

[keen river]

you need 3 lanes of shredded originum

otherwise its fine

also i think you need second pair of ferrium components too 🤔

[river wadi]

3:2 originium:ferrium for sc battery

[keen river]

if you unlock the depot its easier, you wont lack the slots

[late crag]

like this?

[craggy oyster]

1 more fe component and 2 more ori powder. altho u have 2 belts of fe component but it just one line cuz there is only 1 machine working on it. once the stored up material runout it will be one

[vale bramble]

more machinery, not lanes

[gray oar]

Why aren't you making wuling bats? iirc Wuling has very little ferium so it's not the best idea to make those

[vale bramble]

adding more lanes just splits the output

literally just noticed that's wuling

[craggy oyster]

cuz they new ofc

[gray oar]

first wuling bats are not hard to make iirc

[craggy oyster]

they have to learn lol. cant u see they struggle making SCV

[river wadi]

lc wuling battery is more convoluted than hc valley battery

[gray oar]

fair enough, although it would make sense to learn in V4 where there's much more ferium

[green sleet]

Revision 2. Now with inbuilt farms. Couldnt brain out a way to square it more, but at least its not a dome anymore

Kept the same sideways footprint too

[craggy oyster]

now it a mushroom hahahaha

wait me i go find my old BP

i rmb it smt like 30x26 one

[late crag]

wait whats fe?

[craggy oyster]

Ferrrium

[foggy iris]

Anyone has hc battery 100% bp?

For valley

Eu

[green sleet]

Rn mine sits at 36x24 lol. while i wont outright copy you, ill at least find inspiration from it to fix my mistakes

[craggy oyster]

still as beautifull as ever ahahaha

one of my 1st creation

30x26 it iss

[green sleet]

That is very nice

[craggy oyster]

u right on time lol, too bad it still Asia only

[foggy iris]

Wat u mean?

[green sleet]

Bps are region locked i think

[foggy iris]

100%?

[craggy oyster]

yup

[foggy iris]

Fk guess imma do it

Wish me luck

Aint sharing tho

[green sleet]

At least there be a photo to go off of to help 😂

[craggy oyster]

gluck

[pulsar willow]

can I get a recipe for the jade gourd?

I am back to the heavy xiranite production

[foggy iris]

If i collect ferrium from wuling it counts in valley?

Mining

[pulsar willow]

the stats are local

[craggy oyster]

no they have their own storage, but u can tranfer them manually on the ship 1750 max each time

[green sleet]

No. Theyre seprately tracked

[pulsar willow]

on the bottom right you can see what region you are looking at

[late crag]

is this better ?

[craggy oyster]

Nope. u still havent understand the formular. Wuling bat need 1 belt of xir and 3 belts of densed ori. that has to come from 3 seperate line of grinders. 3 belts coming from 1 grinder mean u have 3 33% belts of dense ori which still only equal to 1 line

[worthy condor]

I finally made it home! Does anyone have any good guides or YouTube videos or anything to help me get my Wuling production into shape?

[pulsar willow]

many people use Kyostin's base

[worthy condor]

Okay, does it work well?

[pulsar willow]

it's a min-maxed base I think?

[late crag]

this way?

[pulsar willow]

it's... progress, but you don't have enough of xiranite and originium for 1 full powered battery line

you need 6 crusers shredding units for originium ore

to sustain the grinding unit

as well as full line of xiranite instead of 1/3

[late crag]

do you have a picture ?

[pulsar willow]

I have to go to work

just left the game sry

someone else will help you im sure

[craggy oyster]

like this

[keen river]

freed some space for tomorrow 👍

[late crag]

what is that sending orgium?

[craggy oyster]

a depot bus. u will unlock it in the tech tree.

[craggy oyster]

here

[late crag]

i now have it but how does it work?

never mind

[subtle finch]

[craggy oyster]

sup

ik red count as a facility but doesn blue also count?

[keen badge]

Thinking about pumping this acid back to the core AIC 🤔
Would pipes do? I mean, I did it before over long distance with liquid xiranite, so I know it's probably doable
Or can I just ... "chain" conduits all the way?

[late crag]

its slow but is this better and sorry for asking alot

[craggy oyster]

Pretty sure u can. it's what its for. Chain manifoid conduits for up to 8 axit

[amber imp]

Can multiple conduit outlets go into a single inlet or vice versa?

[keen badge]

Eight? Not just two?
They look like two inlets/outlets just... compressed into one facility
Or do they have higher capacity than regular pipes?

Or did you mean using 4 manifold chains to get the "eight lines"?

[craggy oyster]

Read the formular again. 2 ori powder + 1 sandleaf powder = 1 densed ori. so u supply it , each grinder need 2 belts of ori into shredder and 1 line of sandleaf . To supply 3 grinder u need 6 belts of ori in total.

[craggy oyster]

1 manifoid = 2 pipes = 4 pumps = 8 axit unit

[late crag]

i think i did it now

[foggy iris]

Welp found the problem y my production halted

Low ferium ore mining

Mined more now im getting 12/min hc and 6/m buck A

[keen badge]

Something like this? 🤔
(sorry, still new-ish to this factory thing)

[tame sedge]

I did this, chaining conduits through Wuling

[craggy oyster]

Yup yup

[foggy iris]

For wat?

[keen badge]

Thinking of chaining these manifolds together and get that acid pool piped to the core AIC in Wuling City ⤵️
#aic-factory message

[tame sedge]

Extra pipe for fun #aic-factory message

[foggy iris]

U need those for heavy xiranite?

[keen badge]

And whatever else that acid might be used for later, yeah
(and yeah I know there are more pools in the Marker Stone area too, I'll tend to those separately)

[craggy oyster]

for heto related item and for future stuffs. we now can have liquid h.xir using axit too

[tame sedge]

You could always bottle it up instead of running conduit

[foggy iris]

Ffs when will this end?

Shud i focus stockbills on steward upgrades?

[nova osprey]

if you need the steward upgrades

[iron stratus]

upgrade all your aic-related stuff before focusing on stock redistribution goods

[foggy iris]

Im only making xiranite lc and gourds in wuling

[shut hearth]

Do yall think we are gonna get a HC wuling battery next patch?

[cobalt hedge]

is this just for fun?

[iron stratus]

likely

i dont see why they'd drag sc any longer

with so many forges and so little ori

[keen badge]

For liquid heavy xiranite, and w/e else that acid might be used for later
But yes there is some fun factor too 🙂 Remember that deep pit with a 40k cap? 😅
(I'll deal with the other acid pools in the Marker Stone area separately)

[shut hearth]

maybe they are trying to transition us to something that uses 12/min heavy xiranite

like what if they will have xircon 2.0 with heavy xiranite

[iron stratus]

i assume hc will be 2:1 with heavy xira

[subtle finch]

@shut hearth 2 of your ||jade gourd|| layout made it to my compilation post

[craggy oyster]

Maybe 1 2 more patchs.unless they gonna stick with 2 lines battery only

holy chinop fucking destroyed us with his 12/min setup

[craggy oyster]

😈

[shut hearth]

btw @subtle finch what is ur factory currently running?

[subtle finch]

it's in a suicide mission rn

[craggy oyster]

Do we need to do some sort of mission for the phase 2 or we can just preset the BP so once the patch online we instantly make new stuff

[shut hearth]

wait are u making ZERO batteries

[subtle finch]

technically originium ore are batteries

[shut hearth]

this is my plan

i have a ton of xircon left rn so it's actually running 13.2/m batteries then i plan to ration it out if i have to when i run the gourds on overdrive

[subtle finch]

i'm going for high score, so it's not for everyone

[shut hearth]

but that only gives you 3200 power total if u burnALL originium directly

[subtle finch]

ill be running 18/min heavy intermittently until the end of the event

[worthy condor]

Sorry, what was the best Wuling production to follow? Somebody said one but I can’t find it or remember it

[subtle finch]

power is cheap without sc bat and only 5-6 normal forges, im only at 3500w

i supplement the rest with like 800hc a day

[shut hearth]

the hc batteries from meta transfer is only 0.5/min right?

[subtle finch]

i do manaul transfer, 1 stock could last a couple weeks

too much for the event

[shut hearth]

do we have any numbers on how much the gourds sell for and how much there is to buy?

[subtle finch]

luckily i stopped selling almost 2 days ago to save them for phase 2, so i didn't really lose out on any bills
but i drained a huge portion of my hoardings

i think it's only 57k pre-phase 2, and constant 6/min after should clear the outpost bills with jade alone

[shut hearth]

which server do u play in? also how much earlier are the events released in as vs en?

[subtle finch]

asia, i think na/eu is 12hrs behind

[shut hearth]

wait what so i dont even have to worry about outposts bills capping?? from just 6/min??

or are u talking event currency

[subtle finch]

with the 57k heavy/heto in stocks, yes

no, outpost bills

[shut hearth]

damn

[green sleet]

Next step is straightening out my pile of sticks. Yay conduits

[shut hearth]

if the devs are listening, i just had a crazy idea; what if we got a new region mechanic where power given to facilities scales with distance from a pylon, and factory efficiency scales with how much power they receive

[green sleet]

That sounds like a nightmare

[subtle finch]

[shut hearth]

introduce the inverse square law to gacha players

[subtle finch]

they cant even spell annihilation and squads right, how do you expect them to read it

[green sleet]

On that same note. If they gave us power lines thatre only 1 space big, thatd be dope

[shut hearth]

are u calling someone out in particular?

[subtle finch]

hypergryph

[shut hearth]

OR what if the factory became 3D/had verticality (which well... players have already figured out)

[shut hearth]

NO WAY

[shut hearth]

I thought u were joking

no no no, they made the mistake TWICE

it's hilarious

[craggy oyster]

end filed industry lol

[dreamy jungle]

I never noticed these errors

[abstract sage]

got excited because I unlocked a new base and fully upgraded it's size. wanted to place down my battery factory as I know I'm a little under .4k away from being over on power. forgot how big this thing was, it would take up almost the entire place.

[nova pilot]

Not bad

[shut hearth]

Why would we tho, no one pays attention to endfield announcements

[subtle finch]

change your name to F R I U T, and wait until someone notices

[dreamy jungle]

Change yours to hikiran

[shut hearth]

The entire daily sequence is just cycling through 20 different popups and spamming escape key

[dreamy jungle]

Bruh i cannot type

[shut hearth]

U gotta change ur name to all lowercase and see if we notice

OR add extra spacing between the letters

[dreamy jungle]

Oh

[craggy oyster]

l

[subtle finch]

now show your conduit lines

[craggy oyster]

lower case L instead of I maybe, depend on font

[craggy oyster]

the sandleaf one only put a pair of seeding/planting and run the sandleaf back to depot. Then on top make 10 of the sandleaf planter for more symetrical

[nova pilot]

[craggy oyster]

ah shit . i premade 8 conduits i lost track which is which lol

[nova pilot]

Ahh swap the extra Planting Unit for a Depot Unloader?

[dreamy jungle]

[craggy oyster]

yup, and put it on top, 5 each side, should be enoug space

[nova pilot]

Awww but I like how it fits

[subtle finch]

they knew it's gonna make a mess on the map, so they hid it unless you zoom close enough
idk why they don't do the same with relays and pylons, or just have a persistent toggle setting

[dreamy jungle]

Hikiran im waiting

[craggy oyster]

then make 2 lines of turn off stash if u not hiting facility limit. but im guessing this is pretty close already

[tough berry]

tommorow tommorow ohh tomoorow uwu

[nova pilot]

I think I'll keep it this way for now

[craggy oyster]

oh 401??? there's so much more. niceeeee

[nova pilot]

Can add a few more but I'mma save it for conduits for the sewage to go in the test area

[subtle finch]

i think they have the tech to move your characters with belts
would be a useless but fun feature

[nova pilot]

401 from the bp alone, relay towers, pylons, mines, and the ziplines are not included 😭

Btw thanks again for the conduits @craggy oyster

[subtle finch]

i still haven't remade my central base design

aside from not knowing how to place the 4 expanded crucible at the center
i constantly change production

[craggy oyster]

How about the circles ahaha

[green sleet]

Registeel, is that you?

[craggy oyster]

dont give me ideal ahaha

[craggy oyster]

damn now u make me wanna build a human base. Crucibles is head, i alreayd got heart cuprium, batterry could be arm and wwhater in to be legs. probably j.g

[lilac sparrow]

its a bit of a mess but can someone tell me why the amethyst side is bottlenecking? do i need to double the amethyst parts production?

[lofty lodge]

after 2 days of break from endfield, production still stable yay

[twilit shard]

expanded reactor goated

[craggy oyster]

yup. 2 amethyst = 1 bottle. 4 bottles = 8 amethyst

[twilit shard]

Finally got the thing to condense space for making batteries

[lilac sparrow]

are there specific recipes that are most efficient to level each zone?

[craggy oyster]

just produce the highest product u unlocked. sell and upgrade more to unlock higher stuff.that's all.

[craggy oyster]

pay attention to the ops assigned to each outpost. There are 3 buff. 1st one is more outpost "exp" 2nd one is more bill when trading and 3rd one is outpost produce more bills to trade, So u want 3rd to active always. then when u trade switch to someone that have 1 or 2 or both.then switch back to 3rd

[ruby sorrel]

it's real, I don't even have to make LC, 4825/5700 power

[subtle finch]

did i miss something? what are those ratios

[ruby sorrel]

0 item swap outpost clearing

[subtle finch]

[nova osprey]

[subtle finch]

i guess it wouldnt work if i transfer hcs

[ruby sorrel]

yeah there's nothing left to transfer

ig you might free up 1 bank's worth if you do LC power

[upper fiber]

anyone counted how much the event boost will accelerate the bills regen?

[subtle finch]

40%

[upper fiber]

or it will only happen after we start the quest

[ruby sorrel]

oh wait I counted wrong I do need to make LC

I put too many hc banks down

[upper fiber]

the event timer is saying the event start at 2 AM tomorrow for me

so the 40% will start at that time or not

[nova osprey]

40% boost tmrw? damn

[upper fiber]

i wake up at 6AM+, so i need to adjust my stock for 4hrs+ extra boost

[dense blade]

[ruby sorrel]

I'm just going to pretend this is fine I don't want to count

[cobalt hedge]

sorry if it's a dumb question, but how are you going to source xiranite for the heavy xiranite in valley iv? relying on transfers or

[hoary crag]

heavy xiranite about to get the orirock cube treatment

the entire stockpile ain't lasting a day

😭

[silent canyon]

If I cleared out phase 1 should I stop making gourds?

[shut hearth]

Yes, jump back to making heavy xiranite

[keen badge]

Did I say Valley IV somewhere by accident? O.O
Nono in meant in Wuling 😅
There's just this... weirdly placed acid pool that's on the border of the Wuling City & Marker Stone regions and I'm hoping to utilize it too
To make liquid heavy xiranite to clear "hyper blight blobs" at the very least

[lusty violet]

nicee i ended up doing 19.5 Med [A], 14 HC, 12 LC since ratios seemed nicer

[ruby sorrel]

funny ratio is real

wasting power cus 6360 with 6hc 12lc

14 is still swapping though no?

[craggy oyster]

Alright this is asss

[lusty violet]

it's still selling 9.5 to infra
for power 4.5 HC 12 LC for 5260

[keen badge]

clever depot bust placement 👀

[ruby sorrel]

oh yeah that works

easier split?

[lusty violet]

just squeezed in an extra 0.25 med [a] so its not 20.8% of a full line but 25%

[silent canyon]

Right now I got 4 Xiranite lines going into making Xircon Effluent, and 2 going into making Heavy Xiranite

[ruby sorrel]

so that's uhh 1/3 instead of 1/6 split on the shared steel

[silent canyon]

Making 2 lines of Xircon and 1 line of heavy Xiranite. Should I go more aggressive on the heavy Xiranite and make less Xircon?

[hoary crag]

depends on your priorities

[ruby sorrel]

hm, yeah I'm under 5260 power anyways I could drop it

well I have to rebuild my parts farms though

[hoary crag]

if your h-xiranite stockpile isn't that large yet then I'd advice boosting h-xiranite production for phase 2

[meager stream]

need at least 20k both hxira & heto raw, i guess

[hearty sail]

Have managed to turn one of the sub PAC's into a mostly dedicated sandleaf + carbon area and somehow this still ain't enough

[silent canyon]

Heavy Xiranite is basically 1 line of Xiranite turned into xircon effluent, and 2 lines of raw xiranite right?
So at max you can make 2 lines of Hxira right?

[dense blade]

yes + 12/min xiranite

[silent canyon]

But at that rate, that means 0 xircon for batteries.
So I probably want something more than 1 full line, and less than 2 full lines

[dense blade]

hcv

• raw originium

is plenty

[ruby sorrel]

hmm these are the only random parts I need right? if only I could make ziplines with factory

[hoary crag]

I already have over 110k raw heto and 80k-ish hxira 😭

[ruby sorrel]

tbh I could be stealing the amethyst from LC prod and it'd cost less power but that doesn't even matter

[craggy oyster]

Good luck fishing 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[ruby sorrel]

I can't believe you're pulling all the fish into your factory

[upper fiber]

if you're still using sandleaf to make carbon, yeah

[hoary crag]

Along with 148k Hvy/Heto, I just hit 68k Xircon Effluent filled Cryston Bottles, I could do 12/m Hvy Xiranite if I really felt like it w/o touching regular production. I'll have about 100k regular Xiranite I could blow thru but i'd have to procure a Forge makeing regular Xiranite

[valid gazelle]

[ruby sorrel]

can you even select things for bp without top view

[valid gazelle]

Nope

[meager stream]

I was remembered...."factory competition challenges". Build factory from scratch within time limit & no topview. Beautiful view & clean tidy will be the winner (got thousand $)

[hearty sail]

I'm gonna have to redo my cuprium blueprint because I foolishly have both the raw cuprium and CU components going into the same output depot

[craggy oyster]

i mean , Josh did it

[hearty sail]

It will not be fun

How could he do this

[upper fiber]

no leek for next half? any new HC bat

i realized that i will not get to see new unit preview because of that brilliance banner.... should i pull or skip zhuang

[hearty sail]

Zhaung has gone straight to work as the liaison for the 2nd Wuling sub PAC site

Since she ticks all 3 of the criteria for extra stock bills

[upper fiber]

akekuri done the job already if no new lv outpost

what is her use in cabin

[ruby sorrel]

and there's dapan for on trade bonuses anyways

• op xp

[hearty sail]

I think it's a large buff on operator XP item production, I can't recall exactly

[craggy oyster]

i turned xir liquid filler into a cooling system 😭

[ruby sorrel]

20/30 op xp 14/18 mood

[upper fiber]

dunno if i should get her just for that...

[meager stream]

pullpullpullpullpull

[hearty sail]

She also has this silly idle animation that is enjoyable to watch

Surely that is enough reasons

[ruby sorrel]

idk rather consider how she plays in combat, and if you have team/wep for her

[upper fiber]

nah, she is ||ugly ||with that outfit

[ruby sorrel]

mine has just been chilling doing nothing

doing nothing but be a resource sink

playing rossi anyways

[meager stream]

about fangyi....do you guys remember the early story entering wulingcity? moment that fangyi using ultiskill

[upper fiber]

i pulled tang2 and rossi and have no use for them in combat

[shadow void]

I still havent used any of my crowns, sitting on like 150

[hearty sail]

I have her with the English Rabbit lady, endmin and Ember. Ember stacks vulnerability and the rabbit lady applies electry to buff her attacks

[ruby sorrel]

we have so many crowns it's crazy

[hearty sail]

Endmin just watches

[upper fiber]

lol many.... it isn't enough to max 6 units

if you buy bpass maybe

[meager stream]

it should be her form

[ruby sorrel]

idk I don't m3 everything

sanity gate feels bad

[shadow void]

i just don't feel the need to use them plus dont wannt mistakenly waste them

[meager stream]

but why become this until rn, feels like flashbang

[ruby sorrel]

it's so glow you can't see anything

[keen badge]

this suited her better imo
the color matches xiranite more closely
and the circuit-looking things suggest some kind of augmentation to control her power

[ruby sorrel]

nerfed by lack of shadows

[hearty sail]

Basically this

[ruby sorrel]

tbh who is staring at the front while in combat anyways

how do you fight like that, I'm too skill issue

[shadow void]

don't like how it locks you faceing forward

[hearty sail]

I don't think you actually can, she always turns to face the way the camera is pointing

Maybe in photo mode if you are fast

[ruby sorrel]

can you lock-on and face camera away from boss or sth

is that why ppl are complaining

[meager stream]

sorry bit out of factory topic xD

[hearty sail]

I haven't tried, it might be a way, but for the most part I'm too focused on getting rid of the nefarious slimes

[pulsar willow]

Is this an AIC factory chat

[ruby sorrel]

it started from dijiang/outpost skills so maybe?

too bad the only factory related combat items are food we can't automate and gear we can't afford to artifice

[meager stream]

btw about 2nd exchange (factory event), goodluck preparing at least 20k each of hxira, heto raw & yazhen

[ruby sorrel]

eh not like I'm going over 22.5/min not gonna bother prepping heto

[cyan forge]

W8 the new recipe is still tmr?

It's not today?

[ruby sorrel]

I think I have ores again since I crashed my factory for 12+hrs yday

and yazhen is literally free

[orchid pilot]

I think Asia server gets it sooner. NA is 1d 7h away

[cyan forge]

[cobalt hedge]

oh lol sorry i likely misread something somewhere i recently saw someone port acid to valley vi so i must have made an unconscious connection lol. makes perfect sense though, best of luck!

[meager stream]

but quite slow producing, and also we dont know yet the exchange list

[cyan forge]

Ah yuck so eitherway it's still tmr

Good God i thought it was on monday

[ruby sorrel]

stockpile only matters if you're going over max sustainable rate

[cyan forge]

Shit, how many more heavy n heto do i gotta move to v4

[ruby sorrel]

doesn't matter if prod takes 10hrs per item

it's just rate matching

[orchid pilot]

I cannot wait to cull all this stashed excess lmao

[ruby sorrel]

tbh I'm probs not going to delete my hxira stash on this cus I don't believe in 14m

[orchid pilot]

I don't believe in the 14M either but honestly, what else am I gonna do with it

[meager stream]

and...the exchange rate for selling jadegourd so far will be 120 (regular stockbill) + 40 (event) per item

[orchid pilot]

I'm gonna be over 150k by the time we start ph2

[cyan forge]

What 14m?

[ruby sorrel]

buffer for the next time I blow up my factory and not notice for 3 days

[devout egret]

Until you hit 80k cap.

[orchid pilot]

There are one or two people who interpret the wording of the EN event description to mean that there will be an additional exchangeable amount beyond outpost stock bills up to the holding limit of 14M stock bills

[cyan forge]

Wym 80k? Like 80k on v4?

[ruby sorrel]

I was running on 50% SC batts for 3 days before I noticed last week

[orchid pilot]

merci and I assume that the auto-exchange at event end is identical to manual exchange (i.e., stock bills are limited by outpost generation, anything excess is cert only)

[pulsar willow]

I made my factory a bit more neat. Placed the Heavy Xoranite forge back and made a little Xiranite Gourd production using 22.5 Xiranite per minute (it eats away 2.5 xiranite per minute, so not a big deal, since I have a full depot of it).

Also now I make only 15 hetonite per minute and a bunch of meds. Meds just seem more in-line than hetonite parts.

[devout egret]

Yeah arent you doing that? since your asking the question how many you moving to v4

[pulsar willow]

Especially since it's very expensive to make hetonite gear for artificing lol

[cyan forge]

Am not moving all 80k wdf

It'll take ages movin it back if i do

[devout egret]

Why move it back just be there for collection

[cyan forge]

I alr don't wanna move more if i could but I'll prolly have to move like 10k more today

Ugh

[pulsar willow]

Moving is quick though?

[cyan forge]

Jade gourd stuff

[pulsar willow]

Like what, 7-8 times? It should be around a minute or two

[cyan forge]

Yeah, wasting 10 min on repetitive back and forth, i just don't wanna do it regardless

[cyan forge]

What?

U need more than that for 80k?

[orchid pilot]

you don't need any stocked in v4 if you just plan to clear outpost bills constantly

[cyan forge]

I'm confused at what discussion we're at

[pulsar willow]

You said that you need to move 10K today

[orchid pilot]

left side is the additional stockpile you need if you intentionally let outposts near cap at phase change

right side is if you don't bother letting outposts fill

[pulsar willow]

Isn't it done from dijiang

In a couple of clicks

[orchid pilot]

regardless, both are under 68k

[cyan forge]

Oh ye, if it's only the 10k today, it'll take at worst 3 min

[orchid pilot]

so if you've already filled wuling, no need to hike it to v4 unless you're doing over the top shenanigans

[cyan forge]

This is assuming 6 jade/min?

[orchid pilot]

yeah

[cyan forge]

How many forges is that?

[orchid pilot]

7/1 forge split

permanent, no bouncing with 6/2

[cyan forge]

Huh? U make 6/min w just 1 line?

[orchid pilot]

yes

[cyan forge]

Oh cool

[orchid pilot]

the recipe is just 1 heavy + 1 heto + 5 yazhen soln

albeit with some convoluted steps

[pulsar willow]

What are the recipes for jade gourd, can someone share it please?

[cyan forge]

Ok i didn't know that i guess

[pulsar willow]

Thanks

[cyan forge]

Well that's good to know

[orchid pilot]

👍

[cyan forge]

I am saving bills rn tho

[meager stream]

and here is the steps

[cyan forge]

So I'll see how much i need

[orchid pilot]

so yeah the people prepping like crazy are either 1) doing it for the meme or 2) believing in extra benefit that is unclear at best from language interpretation (and from cn/jp phrasing, looks unlikely)

[frozen summit]

What's the max xiranite yield can 1 forge make

[orchid pilot]

xiranite is 30/min, heavy xira is 6/min

[pulsar willow]

All the extra gourds will convert into bills and I believe that they will exceed the limit maybe?

At the end of the event

[cyan forge]

Nope

[orchid pilot]

if you go to the event screen and click the details, you can look at the exact phrasing

[cyan forge]

It'll just be extra event currency

Iirc

Which we don't even know if it's tradable after we clear shop

So like

[uneven aspen]

it only says extra event currency doesnt say what the event currency going to convert to

[cyan forge]

Meh

[pulsar willow]

[orchid pilot]

if you search "manga translator" you might find Hikarin's machine translation from when I posted the cn screenshot of event rules last night

upthread from there, I also translated myself

[cyan forge]

[uneven aspen]

I wonder if this is true or not.

[orchid pilot]

likewise, there's also been chatter that that was originally unlimited qty redeemable, then patched to limited

[south rover]

I'm trying to get heavy xiranite fluid but it doesn't actually produce it even though the entire facility does produce everything to make it albeit slowly

[pulsar willow]

Then I think people are just doing it for the love of the game

[orchid pilot]

heavy xiranite comes out as a solid, not a fluid

[pulsar willow]

Just to find excuse to make more factories lol

[orchid pilot]

very much do not recommend making heavy xiranite unless you can make it at full utilization rate

just make xiranite instead

I mean, I guess for the event you need to get your heavy xira up and running

[uneven aspen]

is that acid on the top right? what's that for?

[orchid pilot]

but running forge at like... 10% utilization is a huge waste of the limited resource

[south rover]

Yes I'm producing both

[meager stream]

a-ah 😢

[orchid pilot]

oh sorry the belt line was faint and I missed it

point still stands about forge allocation though

I don't think it's a good idea to make liquid heavy rn

[south rover]

I'm trying to make heavy liquid

[pulsar willow]

It's a good idea if you need heavy xiranite liquid for a couple of puzzles

[south rover]

Yeah more than likely not

[orchid pilot]

it looks like you're feeding normal solid, not heavy solid

[pulsar willow]

I made like 10K bottles of heavy xira and called it a day

[orchid pilot]

We already know the formulas for ph2 event involve solid heavy, not liquid heavy

and that is immediately the highest value item in the game (while it's available)

making liquid heavy now, especially when your heavy supply is so limited, is throwing away your supply for jade gourds

[pulsar willow]

My head hurts just looking at it...

Holy spaghetti

[south rover]

Actually tbh I'm having problems trying to produce enough xiranite atm honestly you're right I need to stop production

[orchid pilot]

yeah it looks like your factory needs work from the bottom up

just from the fact that the area is not expanded, I suspect you have extremely limited bill income

not clear to me why you're using relays for power inside the aic zone

[south rover]

Yeah that's also true trying to farm a bit of that as well
