no enough water likely

plush dew
#

ohh so it’s like using too much xira?

upper fiber
#

your xira only produced 40/min

plush dew
#

waitt how do i fix it then T^T do i deadass make a proper base atp

i dont even know if i can produce the other gourd in time before the event ends

craggy oyster
#

1 gourd need 90/mins xir. that, equal to 3 Forges. u only making 40/mins. All ur xir not even enough for 1 gourd

pulsar cypress
upper fiber
plush dew
craggy oyster
#

u need to get more forges in the AIC techtree, and then set up more xir making

plush dew
#

ohhh okay then

craggy oyster
#

how many forges do u have

plush dew
#

thanks guys T^T

#

uhm wait

#

oh my i need more

pulsar cypress
#

Go to the factory tree, unlock the node that make u can have 8 forges in max.

bright zodiac
#

finish story, get datalogger, unlock more

craggy oyster
#

4 forges ur xir should be 120/mins. ur current xir line is also under supply ig

bright zodiac
#

the last tree on wuling , need you to finish marker stone story

plush dew
#

this one?

craggy oyster
orchid pilot
#

jade wins
working on the raw mat'l streams to demonstrate that these two are equivalent.
Left side is metax dense ori (which is superior), right side is metax ferri (since dense ori is unusable and raw ori is worse)

bright zodiac
#

go finish marker stone

craggy oyster
#

time is xir , xir is gourds

plush dew
small creek
#

At least its not that far

plush dew
pulsar cypress
ruby sorrel
#

or is this making lcw for power

final sierra
#

hmm is this needed anywhere? 🤔

if we have item A in storage then block item B
if we don't have item A then give item B

plush dew
craggy oyster
#

need to get that up 1st

plush dew
#

Ohhh maybe bc of my battery?

#

ill take pic of my main factory

subtle finch
craggy oyster
#

ye the forges too

subtle finch
pulsar cypress
# plush dew

I mean the setup in tour factory.
A screenshot like this.

subtle finch
#

would you look at that, @small creek is right

small creek
#

what PerliDerp

plush dew
#

last two pics are in sub aic

subtle finch
small creek
#

ohh thats 0/min SCW

subtle finch
#

wont be fair to not use the leftover xiranite, so i went with 1 forge in duty cycle

craggy oyster
ruby sorrel
#

cursed numbers wow

small creek
#

I think all jade will still win cus you eat some battery for power

plush dew
subtle finch
#

i just went with the extreme, using all ori for sc first, vs all in jade

small creek
#

Yeap

upper fiber
#

6.714 jade from where

small creek
#

forge cycling i think

pulsar cypress
subtle finch
#

7 forge x 30 - 10

small creek
#

let the xiranite pile up then convert it to hxira for more jade

solid quiver
subtle finch
#

both can be powered with hc, and power cost can vary per person

marble yarrow
# subtle finch

best to remove 1 SC (3200 power) to compare with full 3200 originium usage)

subtle finch
plush dew
solid quiver
subtle finch
#

hc battery is free

plush dew
#

Wait is it supposed to be yazheb or jin

subtle finch
plush dew
#

Guys its now xira 117 per min

#

GETTING THEREE

subtle finch
#

qyurii just want to compare sc vs jade, and lanturn want to account for the rest of the raw mats
i think that answers the question

solid quiver
#

then wouldn't 2nd comparison have 1.5/min WSC?

craggy oyster
subtle finch
#

this is for the event only, so all min maxing methods are allowed, thus free power

plush dew
subtle finch
#

you can make your own criteria PerliFumo

plush dew
#

As for the jade does it require more complex mats T^T

ruby sorrel
#

just pretend value beyond outpost regen doesn't exist unless it's going into comps

small creek
#

thanks for your work AmiyaFumoSalute

paper magnet
#

heavy xira caps out at 12/min right

subtle finch
#

oops, i forgot about the ferrium meta, but it still loses

paper magnet
#

i cant claim credit for this, i stole a setup from someone

orchid pilot
#

there's the raw material comparison to demonstrate that the two scenarios I outlined are equivalent
I forgot about the tiny 1.25 u/min dribble of ferrium in the status quo scenario

plush dew
#

120 LETS GOOO

#

If i dont finish this event im missing out on jades FAK

upper fiber
#

?

south haven
upper fiber
#

finish main quest maybe

paper magnet
#

heh im in danger

orchid pilot
#

are you doing accounting for bouncing skyforge?

subtle finch
marble yarrow
orchid pilot
#

yeah I don't think our results should be different

plush dew
orchid pilot
#

unless the bouncing rate is drastically different between the 6 and 12

upper fiber
solid quiver
#

no need to unlock all

craggy oyster
orchid pilot
#

uh, I think you should turn off base gourds

#

if you're playing catchup, you need all the heavy xira you can get

plush dew
#

Oh the new one uses heavy xira

orchid pilot
#

making base gourd now means fewer jade gourd once you have that set up

upper fiber
#

no hetonite yet likely

orchid pilot
#

hetonite runs fast

#

22.5/min can support triple line

#

hxira should always be the limiting factor

subtle finch
upper fiber
#

dunno who made that instead of 1.5/min

#

SCW

marble yarrow
plush dew
upper fiber
orchid pilot
#

metax

subtle finch
upper fiber

manual cycle

subtle finch
craggy oyster
#

u should just make gourd til then

marble yarrow
subtle finch
#

so what can we conclude with this? Perlithonk

marble yarrow
#

this is the better way

upper fiber
#

do as you like

orchid pilot
#

yeah 2/3rds is way too high

marble yarrow
#

i fill 68k xira, then i full blast hxira

upper fiber
#

as long it is surplus

orchid pilot
#

it should be based on the ratios of the surplus during accum and drain during depletion

subtle finch
orchid pilot
#

accum is only 12 u/min

marble yarrow
plush dew
orchid pilot
#

depletion is ^yeah 72102u/min

velvet ledge
#

what are the important stuff should you be producing in valley 4 endgame?

the ones not in kyostins blueprints

bright zodiac
upper fiber
#

what is kyostin bp

bright zodiac
subtle finch
small creek
#

I lost the plot right about after you posted your table

marble yarrow
craggy oyster
#

there's 2nd shop too. u get more rewards making the 2nd item.

subtle finch
orchid pilot
#

duty cycle percentage heavy

marble yarrow
#

yep 94.44 x 11.11

storm garnet
#

what did i miss

upper fiber
#

nothing much

craggy oyster
#

event math fiesta

marble yarrow
#

bouncing forge aight you patent that one 😭

bright zodiac
storm garnet
#

btw, i'm about 1.1k into of 1.7k gourds i need to craft as surplus before stopping making them

#

not that big a surplus, but might as well stop it if i'm online by then

vale topaz
# velvet ledge what are the important stuff should you be producing in valley 4 endgame? the o...

ignoring about other player bp.
have a stack of

  • refined originium
  • amethys part
  • ferrium part
  • steel part
  • chryston part
  • bomb
    before moving on into other production line, those are required for facility construction or in game puzzle ( bombs ).

main production is HC battery, 18/m will use almost all of the originium.
the rest will be buck A / citrome A to use the ferrium.
last will be buck C to use the amethyst left over

velvet ledge
#

i seee

orchid pilot
#

ok wow

orchid pilot
#

I guess the duty rates between the 1/2 and the 2/3 scenario are different enough that accounting for it does actually swing the pendulum

velvet ledge
vale topaz

# marble yarrow

yeah this graph seems to add up Perlithonk
can you bump depot size to infinity?

marble yarrow
pulsar cypress
storm garnet
#

i don't even have enough space in valley to do everything AND make 18/min food a

#

my food a is below 12/min atm

bright zodiac
storm garnet
#

also, i had to remove my food b after i got 80k on both

orchid pilot
marble yarrow
vale topaz
# velvet ledge this gud enough?

around 10k for safety.
80k if you want to fire and forget. ( mine was set with permanent ferrium/amethyst/steel part production )

storm garnet
#

i should remove the carbon line instead, i don't need carbon in valley lol

orchid pilot
#

oops sorry I forgot to take xira out from right side

#

there we go

marble yarrow
#

yeah 0 net xira

#

i'll be spending 2nd half of 1.2 to go back to the auto-bouncing forge 😭

storm garnet
#

yesterday i got max scw cause of using gourds and it fucked up everything in wuling lol

jovial breach
#

so it's extra 0.63/min heavy ?

orchid pilot
#

honestly, that's a big part of the reason I decided to go for big funny number (@ Etrexum)

upper fiber
#

did people math heavy xira = jade?

orchid pilot
#

we're comparing the scenarios of saccing batteries for more jade gourds, whether it comes out ahead in stock bills

jovial breach
#

well yes and some heto but you always have surplus heto

marble yarrow
#

14M bill copers

storm garnet
#

what's the point of making more than 9/min gourds?

subtle finch
#

so what's wrong with my 12.143? PerliDerp

orchid pilot
#

memes or hoping for end conversion

subtle finch
#

am i bad at math PerliDerp

orchid pilot
#

12.14 would be ~1% uptime of triple forge

jovial breach
#

sunday price POGranichnik

storm garnet
#

the devs already said it was just outpost conversion in an ingame mail lol

#

what more do you guys want

#

the cope is so high here lol

#

i guess there is nothing else to do

orchid pilot
#

tbf the en language makes it sound like not outpost

#

but cn reads to me like outpost so that's what I'm expecting

#

but yeah it's just

#

what else is there to do

storm garnet
orchid pilot
#

the language in question is "stock bill limit"

#

what is that limit

storm garnet
#

it clear as air

orchid pilot
#

14M believers interpret that as 14M holding stock bill limit

storm garnet
#

"goods not yet traded to the outpost"

orchid pilot
#

cn describes that instead as "exchangeable" stock bill limit

orchid pilot
#

goods not yet traded to the outpost doesn't define it as an outpost limit, just refers to anything in inventory / stash / depot

storm garnet
orchid pilot
#

anyway

#

we've rehashed this over and over lol

storm garnet
#

it's fun lol

marble yarrow
bright zodiac
#

i still believe its not depending on outpost bill (it will be very ridiculously .... bad)

storm garnet
#

just did

marble yarrow
#

ah you just misread it

bright zodiac
marble yarrow
#

fair

bright zodiac
storm garnet
#

lol

orchid pilot
bright zodiac
#

everyday, the debate will turn into 50% 50% gamba team

storm garnet
marble yarrow
#

why would the auto convert even need to consider your outpost

orchid pilot
#

honestly, it's excellent bait for both haruna and me

vale topaz
# storm garnet

since 1st dev stream , under impression the dev value moderation and non hoarding attitude.
it was when they talked about the recycling center.
they said about 'if already maxed, no need to gather them.'
so if the gourd sale will be using outpost stock bill, that will be in line with their attitude.

orchid pilot
#

will spin us both up on the opposite sides

storm garnet
#

i'm prefer to go with the option that allows me to not touch the factory much until the new update

jovial breach
#

POGranichnik first time ending the week with 13m

marble yarrow
storm garnet
#

i already play too many hours every day

pulsar cypress
#

Leftover Gourd = bills + cert, if outpost empty to full cert when event ended.
The remaining certs still exchangeable later coz shop remains there for a while.

Thats all right?

velvet ledge
storm garnet
#

btw, i was at 13m today but bough the 10m deco

bright zodiac
storm garnet

basically, this event only thing was allowing me to buy the deco lol

Which megabase is better kyo or xlice

#

I feel like kyo

storm garnet

mine

plush dew
#

Yea imma trust kyo with my life

plush dew
marble yarrow
#

"megabase"

storm garnet
#

in my game

hidden temple
#

instead of the spare 1-2m after catalysts weekly we've been hitting like 4m surplus since the AIC event started
so after 2 weeks of it we should already have saved enough for the golden lung nodge

jovial breach
#

why mega base

#

just build normal

plush dew
#

Bru idk i just searched bases in yt thats what showed up

craggy oyster
#

im force to buy lung or unuse ticket 😑

storm garnet
#

my factorio 1.1 save megabase

marble yarrow
storm garnet
#

this game is like a factorio tutorial

jovial breach
#

does mega base here mean all in 1 main aic or like, just max endgame yield

cyan forge
#

hm if u r consuming 1 battery every 10 min, it doesn't show up in the aic report?

craggy oyster
storm garnet
#

recipes are complex for a beginner though since the patches

cyan forge
marble yarrow

plush dew
storm garnet

basically, what all your bases look like after you are done building

#

with max yield

marble yarrow
#

megabase with map census PerliWheeze

#

wait i can outsource the pumps for hulu cave

craggy oyster
jovial breach
#

ICANT max endgame yield

#

(make no sc)

orchid pilot
#

bruh

#

making v4hc in wuling is a loss

#

it's worse than just burning ori and making yazhen/jincao c

jovial breach
#

that's my base lol

storm garnet
#

poor ori

craggy oyster
#

didnt watch him yet

storm garnet
#

just transfer some to valley

#

until event is done

craggy oyster
#

but he probably same with kyo

storm garnet
#

most bps are the same yield/usage, so just search for bps that are small

jovial breach
# plush dew How about iwintolose

i mean all are the same max yield it doesnt matter which one you copy, for me i would go with whichever one has least power comsumption

#

or the one with the most spare space

#

that also is good

small creek
#

or the one that is easiest to understand

#

which almost always happens to be kyo's

paper magnet
#

for hetonite

small creek
#

even if its not the most efficient

plush dew
paper magnet
#

1 cuprium line = 1 cuprium liquid right

vital narwhal
#

IWTL is trolling with his base design, he uses 100% sandleaf for xiranite, lowkey triggering when he's guide maker

storm garnet
#

iwtl is braindead quick youtube slop

small creek
storm garnet
#

being like that for years

small creek
#

But i guess u have to cut somewhere

craggy oyster
plush dew
#

Ohhh ig ill use xlice for now then o7

small creek
#

what im trying to say is

#

guidemakers make easy to understand bps, not max efficiency ones

storm garnet
#

yeah, just search bps with consumption and space in mind. and you should know how the yield numbers work beforehand.

vital narwhal
#

i'm not familiar with all of them tbh, I only know about what iwtl's looks like because I saw it on an account I was helping and I had to know who committed this crime

small creek
#

using one of them is basically just a matter of picking your poison

#

I remember kyo's 1.0 bp that was producing HCV on the side

#

While its easy to understand, it was definitely not efficient

craggy oyster
#

i dont like those "produce everything" base

storm garnet
#

the best way to make people understand how the factory works is to just make a single line from the beginning to the end, and the game itself already teaches that

brittle sedge
#

yet...

plush dew
#

Fangyi’s gear uses the cuprium right

jovial breach
#

for your fyi before the event i had like 4.3k power consumption, half of the main aic plus half of markerstone subpac free space

valid gazelle
storm garnet
#

the new xira one

valid gazelle
#

Fangyi using cuprium gear is significantly weaker..

plush dew
#

OH YEA heto

#

Got it

valid gazelle
#

itr ied that before switching to hetonite

storm garnet
#

there is an alternative with another chest instead, i dont remember which one

#

Should call all of you the Super Mario Bros for how much spaghetti I see in here PerliFumo

jovial breach
#

if you dont start with ult

#

or if you need more than 1 ult

storm garnet
#

i'm not the right person to ask to indentify spaghetti cause when people say "oh, look at all my spaghetti" i just see super organized factories

paper magnet
#

something feels wrong here

#

what do i do with the acid from the purification machine

valid gazelle
#

i dump it

#

back to where it came from

orchid pilot
#

you can loop it if you're careful to make sure it doesn't clog back to the purifier

#

or yeah, dump it

storm garnet
#

just dump it, less risk of something going wrong

upper fiber
#

there is no risk for looping back if you do it normally

storm garnet

i'm a satisfactory player, i don't risk loops, i have ptsd

@marble yarrow @small creek i'm so bad at math ICANTsns
i think this is accurate now

meanwhile, i'm not making any food c and my ferrium is at 20k ore and cubes and powder maxed

jovial breach
bright zodiac
jovial breach
#

Instead of making yszhen C i use the ferrium to make 3/min hcv

upper fiber
#

btw, why is heto part below 2 for the right one, what else itis used

storm garnet
#

i'll turn on the parts and bottles for now

subtle finch
#

maybe the 6.714 is not that accurate now... let me check that too, but right side is def correct now

jovial breach
#

Im just wondering how do you have enough power without making hcv

orchid pilot
upper fiber
#

oh the extra .6

storm garnet
#

battery consumption per day is not that high, you can sustain with manual transfers

jovial breach
#

PerliWaaaaa manual transfer

storm garnet
#

you gotta do what you gotta do

orchid pilot
marble yarrow
orchid pilot
#

I have 7.05 jgourd/min for standard setup

#

yazhen C should be ~0.06/min since it's ~1.25/min ferri leftover and takes 120 for a full line (6/min), so ~1%

storm garnet
#

i was wondering why all this weird math, and now i remembered the 14m copium

jovial breach
#

Game has no content so we gotta find something to do

orchid pilot
#

yeah something is up with the ferrium sum formula

pulsar cypress
#

Time to rebuild wuling..

orchid pilot
#

your heto part and jade gourd ferri cons add up correctly to 22.5

#

so that plus 60+6.25 from batts is 88.75, so there should only be 1.25 left for yazhen C if total is 90

storm garnet
#

you know, just for you guys, i won't stop the gourd making before the event ends

#

even if asia confirms it's copium

pulsar cypress
#

Me also still making 6/m, asia.

storm garnet
#

1.7k gourds is a sacrifice i'm willing to make for you

solid quiver
#

4 days until minor adjustment in the AIC

#

then another 7~10 days until new patch

#

absolute boredom

storm garnet
#

that minor adjustment will probably make me have to delete everything. again...

pulsar cypress
#

°-°)b

solid quiver
#

I will delete everything to rebuild to extend gameplay duration

#

it's still will be 1h at max

upper fiber
#

i'm wondering how they're gonna convert our stuff.... should be no MT at the event end moment

orchid pilot
#

what's MT?

upper fiber
#

maintenance

orchid pilot
#

ah

#

yeah I'm also curious how they will confiscate the gourds lol

storm garnet
#

mmm, i think some people here have some opinions about what will happen at the end of the event...

marble yarrow
#

i've hidden some of my gourds inside thermal banks, splitter, converger, item control port

solid quiver
#

magically everything will dissapear or will have a little hot fix download

orchid pilot
#

oh damn

#

I thought of thermal bank but not the logistics

marble yarrow
#

sadly i cant put them in turrets (they might become sentient)

storm garnet
pulsar cypress
paper magnet
#

yay finally figured it out

storm garnet
#

my poor courtyard, it didn't survive well 2 heavy xira setup

paper magnet
#

i feel like ive overcomplicated this, sanity check anyone?

vale bramble
solid quiver
#

I'm gonna fill that with sewage

storm garnet
#

40k tank for free

winged oriole
#

I re-emptied mine on the expectation I'll have way too much xiranite later

pure badger
#

okay so i've already solved the problem as of now,

though, the issue lies in whether i log in the next day the Xiranite Effluent clogs up, and the entire thing stops working until i drain some of it

anyone got an idea of why?

storm garnet
orchid pilot
paper magnet
#

i had the same issue yesterday

orchid pilot
upper fiber
#

wonder how many times do i have to type that

storm garnet
#

if it's 15, you need half a pipe of sewage

paper magnet
#

i use this lazy setup for batteries

pure badger
pure badger
storm garnet
#

if we consider 1 cuprium refinery worth of sewage as "1 pipe", then you need half of that, using a splitter

upper fiber
#

the passthrough one won't have sewage issue, so obviously the half2 one

pure badger
#

i hook one pipe up to two expanded crucible

storm garnet
pure badger
orchid pilot
pure badger
storm garnet
#

pls don't use treatment for xircon, we have purifiers now

orchid pilot
#

😭 trashing inert

storm garnet
#

just treat sewage

orchid pilot
#

yeah, the battery inert goes perfectly into heavy xira forge after purifier

pure badger
storm garnet
#

ok, but don't leave it for long, you are wasting xira there

pure badger
#

yeah

#

okay so after looking at reccepies containing sewage, yeah, i think i see why it stops working now, thanks for the heads up

orchid pilot
#

uh, I can't really see why this would choke on effluent

storm garnet
vale topaz
#

completely forgot about skport daily sign in

orchid pilot
#

oh

#

calculating xiranite gain in duty cycle is a nightmare PerliDerp
i feel i went back to uni

storm garnet
pure badger

storm garnet
#

i would mention belt bugs cause i always like to blame them, but your xira and ferrium is topped up

paper magnet
storm garnet
storm garnet
#

when i get problems with my crucibles and they clog, i try to get them down to 20 or so

brittle sedge
#

where does this pipe go?

orchid pilot
#

these do not add up to 90

marble yarrow
#

i can actually outsource pumps here if test area comes PerliWheeze

paper magnet
#

im doing that 4 reactor setup, if you're using 2 of the reactors to make the xircon itself then you shouldnt feet any waste into it

storm garnet
storm garnet
#

then pipe limit start to become a problem

#

(says me with 1152 limit problem)

pure badger
#

i'm just leaving it there cause i'm still trying to adress the Crucible itself

orchid pilot
subtle finch
orchid pilot
#

should be somewhere in the ballpark of this

paper magnet
#

is running 2 outs from a forge the same as running 1 out but splitting

#

just to make it cleaner ig

storm garnet
# subtle finch

btw, total xiranite not being multiples of 30 is cause...?

subtle finch
orchid pilot
#

yup, dense ori left and ferri right

#

your yield/usage 115 115 is right but yazhen should be uh

#

115-22.5 to achieve that, since 22.5 is always going to heto, regardless of where the heto goes eventually

#

92.5

#

that /120 * 6 should be the yazhen c rate

storm garnet
#

btw, reminder that heavy xira uses not 2, but 3 lines of xira + 1 of effluent (which might need to be another xira line too)

subtle finch
#

204 xiranite/min =(3*30)+(180/7)+(4*(14*(60/38)))
that's the duty cycle formula for 13.25sc with 6+ heavy
too long to explain PerliDerp

storm garnet
#

cause the heavy forge itself is 1 xira line lost

#

just funny things the devs makes us suffer

orchid pilot
paper magnet
#

in theory can i just have like 12 packaging units just running

#

i wont run out of the heavy stuff right

orchid pilot
#

you will

storm garnet
orchid pilot
#

depends how much you have stocked how long you can run it

warped delta
storm garnet
#

3.8 lines for 1 line of heavy then i guess

orchid pilot
#

2.8

storm garnet
#

again, the forge for heavy counts as 1 xira line lost

paper magnet
storm garnet
#

if you are making only xira and decide to make heavy, you are losing 3.8 lines of xira to make heavy xira

upper fiber
#

they count xircon eff from sc bat

storm garnet
#

you can't run that forever rn, that needs 240 cuprium

subtle finch
#

i just forgor heto part is depndent on jade and sc, and medc is dependent on the rest

warped delta
#

Sure, but we're almost certainly getting more cuprium with next patch, so I built the full thing out now. Doesn't hurt anything.

storm garnet
#

so, what i mean is... actual xiranite yield is 240, and every heavy xira line then uses 114

upper fiber

here's the duty cycle formula i derrived LappDumb

subtle finch

the P can sometimes varies if you need xiranite for external factor like 1.25sc

storm garnet
#

i dropped out of school, pls, no math

orchid pilot

because the battery feeds its effluent to the forge

warped delta

The outposts are drained of bills, I've bought out everything in the store besides some of the sanity tokens, my artificing is done, and I have like 300 more art tokens. I don't feel the need to poopsock 85 ethers for no reason thx

orchid pilot
#

in my table I compensate for that by subtracting 0.2 * 4 * 30 from the battery xira consumption

storm garnet
#

factory games are the games where you can have more than 99 megaelixirs and that's actually your endgame objective

subtle finch

#

ohh OK so price of heavy or battery

warped delta
#

I have Factorio Space Age, Satisfactory, Foundry, and Shapez2 for that... Endfield factory stuff to be quite honest, is very basic and clunky

storm garnet
#

what i like about endfield vs other factory games is the online factor

#

since the factory doesn't stop when i log off

#

so i have to manage it accounting for that

warped delta
#

I mean, you can run dedicated servers for Factorio and Satisfactory that keep chugging while you're logged off...

if you have say, two refiners running steady state sewage into conduit, you'l pull it out at 1/s

i should have told you that before when talking about the xircon setup

scarlet osprey
#

like imagine being a new player in 3.0 starting in valley 4
its either you figure the factory out or lag behind

orchid pilot
#

but if you clog it beforehand, it will dump out at 2/s until the conduit depots are empty

#

then it will return to 1/s

storm garnet
#

if the conduits fill up, you need to empty them before the xircon setup works fine

The issue is they're not actually running the factory when you're offline bc they would be wasting server processing for everyone that logs out and never returns to the game. So when you log into the game it takes a look at the last time you logged out and does napkin math to catch you up

Also would strongly advice to not have your power banks connected to your production lines of batteries, cuz if something goes wrong with the production so does your overall power.

Might not sound as different, but if you have your batteries hooked from a depot output, it will take far more time for your power to actually shutdown due to a lot bigger inventory access to batteries
