I was assuming this update we're doing 13,x/m battery with 5/m hetonite part but maybe too much with the part
you can xira comp or use 1 big crucible with 1 split of 10 xianite in while purification warer of 1 supplys it + 1 split of 2 xianite on 1 forge for 11 hv output
We wont be running 12, just the extra forge because of size constraints
Sadly
i mean if you doing potion route when having 20 xianite
i just drowned on concrete

can I improve this?
Is it as big as fumo
Way bigger than fumo... but im working on shrinking it
I'm confused what is "potion route" and "potion" in general. My factory is currently making 12/m heavy, 12/m SC bat, 6/m hedonite parts, and 2/m LC bat.
oh heto your stuckcomp or bat
oh your making the tea+syringes hmm.

Im curious with the end result
It will be beautiful.
Especially how you push 2 liquids through 1 pipe with timing
Separating unit, dw
Oh what
Someone mentioned that method a while ago
We will use seperating units with bottled liquids
Damn if its as small as 13x30 imma put it in my base immediately
LMAO no
1 forge is 16 by 24
Remember
Or 15
Ye.. my 1 xyranite forge takes 13x30
dang give me that 16 by 24 that so small uwu

Check some of leanders old blueprints
He the goat
mine 18 by 24 lel
but hrmmm weirdly enough
Bro you know the design needs like crucibles too for stuff but its mainly logistics circuit
i feel like our wuling space so big
Yeah i guess
I can cheat it over to some other space so not really problem as long as I can make it thin and long
I'm on phone uh...where's the blueprint option
While i appreciate the sentiment, plz, stop
In toolkit
Thx pookie
Thin and long.... maybe ill seperate the blueprint into configurable parts then

It should be possible
It okay you make it the way you want. I'll try to understand it first
I dont like using something i dont understand
Wish you luck LMAO

Ill send it in the fots post
what are yalls hetonite production lines looking like, i feel like im wasting a ton of space just for 1/2 of the setup
Welp, no fun allowed, I guess...
Youll be surprised
flip it and move in front the purification and your done
@shadow void this is what i meant

What is gonna happen to my purification units
i feel like ive been factory mogged
rotation time
my eyes red from waisted 30 power
looks great ngl
Mine is a chaos I have yet to fix...
This is the old one
Ive already piped it to test area
Thx to @craggy oyster

nah i mean you drain the yellow soda instead pipe it back to 2 crucible = less 10 power + less 20 power since 1 less pump needed
mm soda
I could make it more organized, but the game should give me 240/m more Cuprium first... and some Ferrium on the side...
we got 240
But we could have more...
@valid gazelle u can just bottles it and bring it out tho
bruh 
Oh i dont like loop back like this
On more continuous and stable lines i do it
bout what?
single forge fots swap
The fact that we're at lv15 but these two still have "low purity" should count as a hate crime...
so flipflop between hxira n xira?
my final design for xiranite ratio controller
Huh, I wonder what's ruining this nice "vantage"

makes sure it always outputs an amount of items thats a multiple of 5 no matter how many you input
probably the dumb freaking memo beacon
lag free?
lag how?
potato device lol
nah i have a potato device
lagspike 
shouldnt be that bad

im literally playing on an emulator

mac moment
i should probably go finish the rest now
me who playong at phone with 6gb barely wprking ram lag spike happen everywhere
worst case ill test on my potato device which barely runs on min settings
before wuling, i had played on my phone, but now for some reason it just wont start properly, i've tried reinstalling too.
I need help with a full blueprint for Wuling AIC but I keep having problems with the automation. I used a full blueprint before but Im not sure how to use the water intake and outlet things and also it made the syringes too fast making me run out of sewage for the crucibles so if someone could help me it would be greatly appreciated.๐๐
actually found the problem thank you guys ๐ญ
6-7
just
read the intructions in bps
running out of sewage is a sign of lacking copium
I'm tryna make these components why isn't it workin
You arent giving it anything
youre not... inputting anything
Uhh
Uhm..
the useful solution is not to make them
not the correct components for purple you need the i think the blue?
purple gear is cryston comps no?
Aight then lemme stash this stuff
also, the item identification control port isnt a source, its just a filter
so you still need to connect it
Wait.. that gives me an idea.. how come i never thought of this
Do you get a simple sorter with splitter and control ports ?
yes
but due to straight lines control ports have,youll need a 5wide space
Why isn't it in the list
hidden medal
Did you do the tutorial
Which
The one for cryston parts..?
is there no reason rn to be using the purification nodes?
Time to sandleaf
Free power is cool
theres not enough ferrium for another sc line and theres not enough xiranite for another heavy line
oh
i mean true...
Everything in this game has a use... Albeit the use is abysmally small
No need for sewag treat
maybe its a 1.3 thing then
do yall have a simple lc bat blueprint
It took me by surprise when i got that after faffin around the area lol
We don't really need anymore scw beyond 2 atm tbh
yeah too many goods
their way of introducing new resource inputs/outputs is very funny
Imagine hcw
๐
so many new forges and nothing to use them on 
Power inflation
yeah, they REALLY need to let ppl disable memo beacons
thanks for letting me put all these down..?
What as the output again for that
30sewage:1xircon??
Ye
tbf it helps you clear lv3 cardiac
idk what i missed?
It's so bad that I powered all my shit up
Agreed. Those shits spoiled the other secret thing for me
And I still haven't touched a third thermal bank
wait there's another secret?
Look around and you'll see~
did you level them all up?
tang2 home carrot
yeah theres one somewhere you can level up
one in marker (lv3 max) one in wuling city (lv4 max)
yeah I missed that at first, but I had 15 anyways
still annoyed at how low wuling caps are
it would be nice if they could have an exclamation mark in the map to let us know they uncapped another level
ikr it doesn't even say the lvcap is raised
we stay on wuling for at least 1 year so intentionally nerf
ehh tbf it just doesnt rly matter
We're playing as it expands, every part patch, manually walk to every one to check for updates (joking)
can't even have full ziplines and turrets
ever since the aic event ive been drowning in goods to sell and been buying out everything every week with multiple millions in excess
ohhhh you mean protocol max
And artificing?
all the caps are so stupidly low
its such a stupidly huuuuuge map
did that already
qingbo i dont really care about?
i have zips set up for all the rare spots and that didnt take long at all
I wish the caps were just shared between maps atp
the minor maps are empty anyways
I don't need cap there
yeah wuling city is the only one i care about
especially with all the fluid pumps and crap taking up protocol space
yeah putting 9 or 10 pumps just for factory deleting my protocol
anyways it isnt that big an issue for me anymore
im not doing deliveries in the city anymore
so i can technically shut down a bunch of my ziplines... i mean i wont but i can
Are deliveries worth it? Ive always just sent them to the job board
arent the depot missions in wuling still better
worth enough
like by 10k and if youre willing to reset spam
or rather, u send job then take other player job
that one mf being on the other end of the map is heinous btw
Is that the going strat to min/max it?
test area deliveries are 106k wuling city deliveries are 119k
wuling deliveries always get done
i have made The Sludge
v4 deliveries never get done
swapping job basically let u get 4 job but only delivery it 3times
rn test area deliveries are FLOODED
nobodys set up zips yet so nobodys taking them
except yours truly
yeah
are you maxed out?
I see. Thanks for the info, ill keep it in mind movin forward
more catalyst 
*none taking coz wulcit give higher bills..
yes and cardiac is still lv2 and im at lv15 development
cats cost 16m even if you artifice with heto
my monopysical still got more backlog 
I have my test area ziplines up so I'm good
i lowkey got disappointed when the new redistro level didnt have any artificing cores
well more like 17m but still
I just about finished my physical artificing
like omgggg
can you share your RDM log to me?
I got distracted with Yvonne and zhuang artificing earlier
Im not setup my zipline yet
to lazy
even if you go nuts and artifice with heto gear you're spending 16.9m/wk on it
It takes 9 zips at least for test area deliveries or someone have less zips?
test area Zipline kinda small
I used like 16 zips in test area
half getting take for top left destination 
how actually useful are the purification nodes?
i dont see the real appeal for it unless im missing smth aside from it producing xircon affluent
I HATE IT
I have zips to the plants and also to the alluvium
i didnt know where it was at first so seeing they put it somewhere you HAVE to jump pissed me off
like omg fine
screw me ig
wait it's jump only?
well i dont, dats the same area where i setup Zipline tech for manifold
unless u zip
that's hilarious
theres no way to deliver w/o jumping
unless i missed a bridge you can put up
Not really useful as the ratio is sad.
Plus limited with 3 pipe input.
thanks, you're right its the environment monitoring
why u have 2 Zipline there
....
Like the one in top right?
XD
oh yeah looks like it's the platforms
please consult the chart
ignore the other line that's for conduits
praise Zipline tech
why was it even added aside from like lack of ideas or smth (and the regional dev level)
i find doing it solo easier
off field op always try to jump into planter 
Maybe later upgrade it is useful, maybe..
For now, kinda less valued.
im setting up my purif nodes just to fuck around
I have no idea how to zip tech tbh, too hard
im gonna set up like
That's sick
I should try to connect the other line with the other route maybe idk
wait fk I connected them wrong but I don't want to move the conduits
test area collectibles are obvious as sin
one of the sidequests straight-up points you to the one chest worth 150 beryls
Imagine players complain that the chests and aurelyns are too hard to collect
The only time I used a guide is for the initial wuling city
Just for better routing
oh god i have so much sewage in my marker stone aic
time to melt my brain piping it to the test area
wuling city huge n the chest literally on each edges 
Yeah I didn't want to run around back and forth so I just used a guide to save rime
make heto on ur main aic, drag acid from test area
yeah mistakes were made, if I need to add the 3rd line of sewage I'm screwed
i was thinking this...
what r u doing
LOL
this is so cursed
Pipeess.. >โ<)
is my zipline setup bad?
not at all
add a splitter
combine all sewage producer on wuling save more protocol cap as u don't need to piping from marker stone to test area
in the water? 
you are missing the dude who spawns here
Forget one at right below..
yeah dat dude placement really 
havent seen it yet
so not placing anything yet
you should
ill place it later
hes right where that blue zipline is anyway
Right at that blue zips..
He always standing there even without delivery..
my current zipline setup
still have excess xiranite
yup
What do you plan on using the excess for?
once full, will burn entire stockpile by converting 12th forge into a third h-xira line
ah I should do that too
then back to normal xiranite
got it
My zip placement with extras.
help how do I get rid of the extra pipe
Delete both first then redo?
Magic
Hello chat i have took my test and almost failed but now Im ready to factory
Do we really have to bring all the sewage to the test area
save power at the cost of protocol capacity
The fun or the funny?
Noooo.. Redo the arrangement, its crossing.. >โ<)

what additional resource you can make from here?
like a really low-yield heavy xiranite line i suppose
Dang, I missed one
we don't make enough xiranite for another full-capacity heavy line
A dream.. 
did you miss the wall one
for now it's honestly just for saving power as others have said
we dont need the extra trade goods either
nah, that was obvious from the green pointer thing and the dumb memo beacon
well time to use that cheat item
Ugh, i'm friggen blind
Help my zipline stuck after upgrading cardiac outpost 
@valid gazelle how slithering is this to u?
๐ how i am supposed to take pipes back from test area when my protocol capacity its literally at 346/350
pipes
pipes and stuff in between to lenghten the size dont take slots from there?
Bottles manually.. 
from* test area
yes from test area to wuling main AIC
arent pipes and logistics separate from that particular 350 limit
and on main aic i am at 346/350
It will still consume when u place like bridge to extend the pipes.
thhere we go
forgot Ferrium powder
18 heavy.. ยฐ-ยฐ)b
b
using your savings of xiranite is not fair youll run out long therm
yeah, eventually runs out of Xiranite, gotta swap back
Using switchable last forge for xir and hxira..
once i cap Heto parts, and get 10k heto comps, i'm switching my Hetonite over to Meds, then i'll be postive on the ferrium/powder side, and i'll only need to swap back and forth on Xiranite/Hvy
While me do half half..
So both capping slowly..
don't really know the ratio on the Batteries, but the more xiranite i consume making Xircon Effluent the more i'll get, it just is setup to use whatever the normal 12/m doesnt use
yeah, i just didnt wanna run the gearing unit non-stop the whole time making barely anything for comps
Lovely ๐
Its one line with heto.
If turn off, it will store the rock directly.
But my heto rock already almost capp, so might as well use to stock the part and gear. XD
is it only possible to place 5 water pumps in the jingyu valley outpost? I need more water for plants
Iirc can place to 7-8?
I dunno. Can't seem to place more than 5.
I tried placing manually too, but just no space
farther right theres space for like 2-3
place on the side and on the back of the pond
or east and north
Ah, thanks! missed the one right at the outer edge. There is just barely a spot for 1, with red squares everywhere else
based on the orientation, north there should be more room
6 + 2 at corner.

Yes, but mine enough 
Cheater..
lol! woudn;t have noticed those 2 at all
eh, plenty of protocol capacity
Yess. Sneaky pump.. ยฐ-ยฐ)

I re-crunched the numbers (I did it twice to make sure I didn't make a mistake) and from what I calculated, to maximally utilize the recycling facilities with 7 lines of sewage while making hetonite, I got that you need to split 46/73rds of one of those sewage lines into a reactor to make additional effluent. Very impractical (but theoretically not impossible) to split pipes into 73rds, but it works out to 0.63. I did a small pipe maze to put 0.6 into a reactor like that, and after letting it run for a little while the production seems to be trending in a way similar to how I expected
The cursed piping.. >โ<)
Someone pls explain this to me as if I am a toddler
What are those amethyst bottle doing?
dumping sewage
and this is my soccer field 
Shuttling the sewage between main and the funny place?
no, i prebottled a bunch
was pretty pointless
unless i make even more Xircon effluent i cant get a constant 18/m batteries
you make 1 line of sewage per cuprium line. There's 8 cuprium lines but 2 of those sewage lines need to go into SC batteries. If you make all that cuprium into hetonite, you also get 1 more sewage line. So if you put all 7 sewage lines into the new Test Area's recycling plant, you get back 7/min effluent. So my thought experiment was, what if I hold back a little bit of that sewage to make effluent in a reactor (which reduces that 7/min amount) such that it adds up to 1 line of effluent to make additional heavy xiranite. Turns out the math is really ugly
7/m?

Hvy Xiranite needs some of the Sewage
basically you can make more heavy xiranite by holding back a little bit of that sewage to put into a reactor, than just using what it recycles
I add the reactor effluent and the recycled effluent together to get something really close to 1 effluent line
the test area's purif node can handle more than 180 sewage in a min right?
it can handle more than you can physically produce
2/s x3 x60
oh it's 2/s nice
It can but you cant produce that
yet
I still have like erm 6 leftover sewage
from hetonite
I just sent them to water treatment bc it's a pain to send pipes from marker stone to test area
maybe I'll consider bottling + separating those excess sewage
can i connect two different small outlet conduit to one big inlet conduit (manifold)?
make hxira with them
No
make more than 12 hxira?
by using 1 forge to alternate between xira + hxira production?
i mean im making 12 hxira with the sewage from hetonite
Its the fots bending technique
I only used like 80% of 30 for hetonite
for 6 hxira on marker stone
A Manifold can be placed on 2 of the ports, then a conduit each on the other 2
oh yea
bc 20% of the effluent are sent from purif
yea that's what I did as well
now I'm thinking to just bottle them and separating them on wuling city
so I don't have to send another pipe from marker
but it's just 6 sewage

i think so yea
hey yall, I have nothing in my meta storage for wuling. Any suggestions on what can be metastorage transfer and built for additional stockbill income?
if u factor in the power, its kinda worth tbh
40 power, 20 each
need that per 0.5/s
and the bottle comes from excess hetonites
so 20 + 20 + 5 from moulding
just 5 power saved

well the bottles get reused
aight im settling with:
12 SC
3.67 LC
3 Heto Comp
12 Hxira yield, 6 used by comp
300 xira yield, 288 xira used
just need enough
why are there two pipes for the big conduit manifold? do i need to balance the inflow for both pipes? can i do one big inflow rate in one pipe and small one in another pipe?
true let's hope it'll be usable for next tier of meds
Manifolds accept 2x 2/s pipes
yea lol
man, are we actually gonna use those for something?
why people make over 1k of heto comps?
for fun
w8, 3.67 lc?
I'm gonna make 10k then stop making Heto all together
makes sense..
so capped on both heto parts and bottles?

yeah imma just make every heto products and stop when done
3.67 lc using meta dense origi?
yessir

trying to get Heto to cap, then Parts, then make 10k comps
new 60 orig + meta dense orig = 110 orig
meta dense coz ferriums are balanced at 90
i only consume more ferrium when i make extra Xircon Effluent
and make near 18/m SCW
I still produce 530 orig bc I'm too lazy to go back to that orig cave on southern wuling

its like a dumb balance game now
always has been

time to make my Main AIC base into BP so people quit the game midway building it


is there another area where we can plant in wuling?
not yet
the extra effluent killed my base again
I'm surprised by how little ferrium ore there is in wuling
i cant do ts anymore
why yield so low
read what i just said
lmfao
u arent using priority merging?
i mean the sewage never even comes out
Finally cardiac outpost lvl3
23400 bills per hour
There's still no defense mission

do i have to max research the first layer to unlock the next electric miner
i just bottle EVERY effluent (especially the one coming NOT from 60/m xircon purif)
then sending out 30/m effluent into skyforge for extra HX
the one that can mine ferrium ore or blue ore
eyy i forgot
what else should I build with my xira?
Yeah im getting into cardiac arrest making my base
Its stable now
Somehow
how do i calculate if purification node's byproduct xircon effluent is sufficient to handle a 6/min heavy xiranite?
Gears component maybe
PEAK BASE
now this is interesting... @shadow void
Isnt it like 30 to 1 effluent
Or heavy xiranit
Idk how long it takes to make 1 effluent

already making 12/min
my zipline stuck in here
2 of my aic bases are at the pipe limit
it clipped?
And all of them are at the like facility limit
if its still working leave it be i guess
I hate it


Endfield engineering
If work don't touch it 
Finally
This area no longer too broke of wuling credits
Hi, is there a way to make the movement of goods in factory slower? Like since metastorage transfer of dense originium cube is 25/min only, I want to temper the outflow to that, not 30/min
splitter
not technically but yes
heres an example on a 25/m
returning 1/6th of a belt back to the converger in front of an unloader forces 25/min
Damm maximize space
thanks!
wthank you!
It about symetrial tho ๐ญ every 7 forges will use all space
You know for some reason my theoretical usage for the ferrium powder fluctuates
So it isnt using 90 a min all the time
the sync is real
Can i copy so my main base save space?
well, fk this extra effluent
im disconnecting it until someone finds a way to use it without breaking anything
vort make one post in BP channel for both server already. u can use that. not this ver but it his own adjustment to this.
I cant seem to figure out what these 3 are.. are these all splitters? sorry noob question
i can think of 2 case
- theres a line using ferrium that has bottleneck
- you try to use excess ferrium to make extra of smth, but the interval between production is long making the graph wavy
if on average production and usage is the same then theres no problem
orange line = splitter
white line = converger
Thank you
OOO didnt know there was a diff in color thank you!!
where tf even is that ๐ญ
another aic endmin pic
lmao
lol
i hate these walls
same as the first area in v4

lemme inspect mine rq
you can still access the inside though but
what even is the purpose of the wall
its small
think im almost done, might setup a quick switch forge setup so i can burn excess xira into heavy xira
does anyone have zipline on there
so how much of the cuprium do we dedicate to hetonite, rn i got 4 working on yazhen A and 4 on hetonite
what can I do with the excess orignium?
Can Hydro mining rigs mine ferrium?
yes
lmao just barely missed it
and yes worth it
why tho, does it give you more?
costs less in power but more in protocol capacity
so it's up to you which one of the two you'd like to prioritize
it saves u a lot of power for ferrium in particular tho
originium is negligible for most ppl
one fluid pump = 3 ore nodes?
yes
you might hear ppl talking abt purity, but its best you ignore that for futureproofing
i just cleaned up my wuling city aic from like, 40~ bridge belts (battery prod line) and i was barely exceeding facility cap with those belts
i dont think protocol capacity should be a problem unless anyones as stupid as i was with those belts
nice
damn
puri outside wtf
maybe some pipes witll wwork
lmao this water puddle has unlimited water 
me when im cheater
using game's feature is not cheating
the small puddle next to the ores by test area entrance >

how are u supposed to bp your marker stone now
pls
Yes it will work
is full hetonite the meta rn
i dont have to bp the purifiers

pipes
what on earth is thiss
PIPES
can i get a top view
@dense blade PIPES
yea youre just gonna be slop and put "additional isntructions"
oh
so it is not yet to be a problem
it is a problem for future me
and im indeed.. not yet future me

false
chat, what can I do with 60 extra originium
make scw/lcw
personally I use it on lcw
?

?
400 POWER OR 30 DENSE ORI POWDER, OBVIOUSLY
ohno, aic mode

GET OUT OF THE WAY THIS IS AN INDUSTRY NOT A LEISURE FISHING SPOT
legit hate stoopid npc
Lmao
can liquid hx be used to clear old blight or it still requires only liquid xiranite ?
clearable + stronger
they fishing 24h too, ridiculous
What's an hour, there's no day night cycle here
We're tidally locked between the sun and talos
I so wish they add day night cycles
there is /h bill regen
imagine test area and fangxing avenue by night
it can be if Talos becomes a solar eclipse
sudden wall at 2nd sub pac after upgrade... luckily didn't use conduit or pipe from that side
by then it will be total darkness
1 day passed irl, 1 day passed there as well
but they npc still fishing 24hour non stop at our base
I almost got 4 operators too all the way too level 90 yay
5 forges ?
pretty nice build
ngl
symmetrical too
someone zipline got trapped post outpost upgrade



guys pls i cant think for myself
all 8 cuprium to hetonite
or can i still use 4 on yazhen A
damn... if you trust me you'll be selling your factory to aether side

even i dont trust myself
I mean I also trust your judgement you've helped me quite a few times
Where was that?
marker stone sub pac
How can I empty bottles into the void manually?
Oh.. Gotta check mine..

i made a compact yazhen a line if anyone needed
Asia code: EFO013o712UU14aEI0579
Imagine someone who build purification and crucible outside area in there..
All got blocked by walls..

It look better from top view ngl.
there's also another array on the other side
wanted to also drive it thru the depot lane but I haven't gotten myself to actually do it yet
maybe in 1.3
u on asia or na/eu?

gimme ur uid
so I can add
i sent you an invitation, give me too
4874372543 . everyone look away,nothing to see here accept Fuyu
where BP Code
lol it just a joke
still hasnt accepted my friend request...

now i gotta turn my whole base 90 degree so that angle can work
im unworthy..
im full
Is it possible to get a slow stream of xiranite,cuprium,and heronite components
and who are u
are you asia or na

for some reason my 10 and 30 min aic reports are unreliable
2 hour one looks almost perfect except the xiranite
yep

How did you know
Can I make the top part more symmetrical? 
they gave us an odd sided pac on an even sided area
is it easier to get acid from Test area or...
If you wanna add, here
wow whel
๐ณ
Ah. Simply scenic
Nah, im just that guy
u just give me an idea for the purr node sewage line
Happy to inspire, bb lol
So, regarding the sewage treatment plant that's new, is there a real use for it yet?
save 300+ power
How so
Why can't I assist?
you use it instead of water treatment facility
Because I'm running 6.06/6.6k and I'm fully utilizing my resources
When i purr inert to ert and feed to h.xir forge, i only need to feed 0.75 sewage to the cru right?
my factory is a mess now cos of this update...
Damn
marker capped on pipes
city capped on buildings
jingyu capped on water pump in the base and i don't wanna outsource

cant wait to save 1/2 mins eff from 0.25 sewage
Same
I had to scramble a bunch of shit work together to scrape my sandleaf powder production up to par
there're 8 pumps in Jingyu lake tho. U used all of it?
guh, i finally got myself ready to make an attempt at setting up wuling factory layouts (i was burnt on factory after doing valley IV), and now there's another update? i'm crying, i don't wanna do this anymore, factory is too hard for my tiny brain but i don't have any of the gear components or mats i need for stock bills ๐ญ
i just want someone to point me at a blueprint i can set up and forget
maybe if i find the brainpower i'll work on prettying it up later
my factory was from 1.2 and i have only been makinga djustment since then lol
p nice not having to redo it everytime
tho i doubt i can say the same in the next factory update cos i'm out of space alr
Wuling factory inital setup can be intimidating, but adjusting stuff after that isn't too hard if you build with wiggle room.
No shot they don't give us another space in the next update right?!?!
the initial setup is what's throwing me off tbh. once i got into the rhythm of valley IV, it wasn't too bad and i could make the adjustments i wanted. but there's so much more going on in wuling, and something is just not clicking for me
my main factory in wuling have so much space i can experiment and never run out of space
i mean, just start from making xiranite generator
The fluid routing can be a bit much to adjust to, and using the wuling plants for Carbon saves a lot of trouble.
take battries from v4 to kickstart ur factory
biggest if of all time
u don't build a factory with plenty of wiggleroom?
no
i have one (just 1. a singular generator working. it... kinda takes up a lot of space because i don't know how to make it more efficient)
i mean, wuling's aic space is so large that if u optimize, u have plenty of open space (like literally at least 1/3 of the space)
back during 1.1, my wuling factory only occupied like 2/3 of my space and my jingyu was empty
cram everything close because thats what ur "supposed to do" then new update oops tear it all down 
and then i shoved carbon generation in sky flats subPAC ๐ญ
literally
also i think the only time i had to tear down factory was uh... when they introduced sc battery?
tore down all my lc for sc day 1 cos hell yeah, more power
like- i am the dictionary definition of "tell me you don't really know what you're doing without telling me you don't know what you're doing" ๐ (marker stone subPAC only looks normalish because it was a blueprint)
too much open space between belts
true, yazhen that
okay but why is yazhen better than sandleaf? isn't it clunky with the water piping?
also carbon to single carbon dust, i never did that at least
1 yazhen = 2 carbon
1 sandleaf = 1 carbon
1 yazhen = 2 carbon also 1 carbon should = 2 carbon powder
it IS the games fault
It's ok i also didn't know until people told me
yes...
i thought it was always there once u unlock yazhen lol
Yeah it's hidden
apparently, i did it with jincao at some point but switched to sandleaf. but yeah, recipe isn't there til you do it once
I once made a massive design using only sand leaf cuz the recipe was not unlocked
it seems a lot of people did lol
does.. anyone know how to optimize this mess of a factory... (couldn't screenshot the whole aic, but it's supposed to be for hetonite components
but i don't really get how each layout is supposed to be. where am i supposed to set up the forges for heavy liq xiranite VS battery production line VS the gear component lines? i know acid is important for a lot of different recipes, but the only PAC that has a convenient acid pool is that subPAC in the corner, and i don't know if there's like- a priority to the production lines, or if i'm supposed to turn certain things solid to port over to a different PAC layout and continue with gear component production, or things like that
im trying to like, optimize it in any way possible cause i havent really reached the highest possible expansion lol
using sandleaf for carbon
i need a full in-depth explanation and demonstration of how this works, but they really don't do that in-game and i feel bad asking what sometimes feels like stupid, no-brainer questions to people who already get it
Isn't acid only needed for like, hetonite and hXi liquid
one carbon instead of two
dw girl / man, i feel you
i dont get much shit man,,, im sorry ๐ญ
you ๐ค not understanding AIC factory ๐ค me
it's literally easy tho
i kind of understand the basics but as how to optimize it, i srsly have no idea LOL
far easier than redstone
is vi here
personally id keep xiranite forges separate from heavy xiranite forges, too much of a mess, just feed xira into Hxira forges using depot unloader
fuck, maybe i should've done that ๐ญ
he should be awake right
he was here a while ago
@valid gazelle
u didnt have to ping 
You need to utilize the Depot Bus more and the ability to place it wherever we like.
Set Marker Stone as the place for setting up Hetonite related productions so you won't need to take acid from there to Main.
In Main use 6-8 forges for SC Wuling Batt and Heavy Xiranite then 8 Cuprium Refineries for accessible sewage source.
4-6 extra Forge in Jingyu then place the components and meds anywhere you can fit them
I wanna make it feel urgent for him
Look for hikarin's in #1461542035617091681
nah he'd be happy to have clueless student
also goes without saying at this point but use yazhen for carbon
1 yazhen -> 2 carbon -> 4 carbon dust takes care of 1 xiranite forge all on its own (+1 sandleaf being shredded into 3 powder to feed into 2 compacters (1 powder fed back to depot))
alright @valid gazelle have u found a way to use the extra effluent from test area without everything else bricking itself
my current methods all end up with the same problem: too much sewage in the xircon crucible
Same
It's just not worth it to save a bit of power and add more protocol capacity for a few drops of efflu
Don't u just cycle it to ur 3rd battery production?
Im thinking of putting it out then back in but idk specifically how
Not everyone makes 14.75 scw
Ah
Don't you just use a separate facility for the returned effluent
What r u makin from it then?
Cuz the stuff is at a perfect ratio as is

I forgot what u can make w effluent tbh aside from xircon or hxira
the plan is to put the effluent back into hxira/scw, but they keep running into sewage problems at the end
again my proposed soln is to force the sewage back out, split it, then put it back in
anybody got any idea what to do with the extra Forge of the Sky and Originium?
but idk what specific split i should make for it
definitely not manual ratio, im looking for smth more automatic
Battery
Split the extended crucible into 2 regular crucibles? 
lame

thats like, giving up
yea
thats why i only store effluent into bottle, and then send out 30/m effluent for full 6/m heavyX
so u forge cycle?
I think I finally refined my Xircon production to a point where I cannot make it any smaller.
i'd suggest checking out kyonstinv's videos on youtube. he does a good job explaining stuff, and also has blueprints so you can use those if needed. peteryr also has one short video, but it's a bit dated since it's for valley 4. the only other tip is that for wuling stuff, I highly recommend modular factory, which means each section takes in stuff and outputs something intermediatry and build things up. modules as others should make: xiranite, battery, xircon, hetonite, cuprium. there's going to be some connections with fluids like hetonite gives a bit of sewage so that should be connected to your xircon line, and if you have access to purification, then inert xircon gets piped to purification which dumps into an hxiranite line. as for components and stuff, you usually will have xiranite left over, so just combine it with a small area somewhere.
yeaaah if i want 18/m
forge cycle is manual i dont wanna do it 

slow lc battery or xiranite comp.
else, if you scrapped your hetonite line, a slow sc battery using test area map purification device, require lots of conduit train from main to test area map.
depends on setup it might be easy to switch
my other problem is that i've maxed wuling depot and upgrades, but i think i'm still only regional development lvl 9. so a lot of the "endgame" blueprints are way over my production capabilities, but i don't produce enough to level up
for my case i need to sell it
like how tf am i supposed to forge cycle here
okay, this makes sense. i'll check out kyostinv's vids then
Good thing my power setup has redundancy cuz I can jumpstart production when I fix it later.
factory brick is always sewage ratio issue most of the time
do you think I should scrape the farm in Wuling? it's taking a lot of Production Power
you can either
- Make a small SIRcon crucible to make those extra SCW
- Feed it to your 2nd Heavy Xyranite reactor
these 2 should be safe enough to not brick the entire line
Nah, I was using the acid out from the heto line to make hXi liquid, but hXi ran out so the acid backed up, which backed everything else up

Cuz I needed a handful of hXi liquid for the quest and I didn't undo the adhoc modification
1st is manual/no ferrium left for that
2nd is not safe
not safe for your system.. yes... mine works fine with the bit extra
More xircon effl into hxira = purification clog = inert effl backs up = crucibles produce less xircon effl = less sewage usage = sewage clog
oh that.. think an overflow valve can safeguard that, send it to the test area in case
i was thinking of that too yea


thats what i thought, ill be damned
