I always thought it made more sense to have all the sorting and processing at the top, where the soil isnt as valuable. Use the better real estate for drills. Also, it simplifies the plumbing, especially for water and has the added bonus of making retrieval of the final products easier.

@Muroshi9 Ай бұрын

There is kinda a limit on how much you can do before the game starts to chug so just filling a level with drills is kinda impossible.

You know the ice from the lower machines doesn't have to be piped to the melter, it can be processed for resources too. You can put shard bars into vertical boosters, it's just more of a pain.

@altrossalexx2705 Ай бұрын

He wanted to have more water i think.. He dont know that a single drill can run water alone i guess 😂

@tyelork Ай бұрын

Not to mention he could put a melter at the bottom to keep the pressure from the water higher, rather than conveyoring it up to pump the water back down. That is assuming he can buy/make additional melters.

@tomaszkrysinski7234 Ай бұрын

3:35 to be fair, instead of that whole conveyor escalator maybe you could have just added another ice melter on the bottom?

He needs the ice melter to be as efficient as possible. The drills lower down poop out more frost rocks, so putting the drill at the top (for more ice) is more efficient.

@BobLegoman Ай бұрын

ngl, this game would be a million times better if you could buy a "license" to place certain pieces and then a fee for each one placed. It's like the game is designed to waste as much time as possible with having to travel back and forth into town because you forgot to buy a 90 degree bend.

@Xythos87 Ай бұрын

heck, just a planning phase where you could place ghost versions of the equipment along with keeping track of how many of each would save so much time even with the stupidly clunky ui and unintuitive item carrying system.

@jamesd2021 Ай бұрын

Having played it myself this is basically right, everything is a grind and its designed at the base level to just make you spend as much time as possible getting anything done. No inventory so even moving objects is a grind since you have one hand apparently. Basic first stage automation takes HOURS of resource grinding to even start to get enough materials to sell to buy the machines. Then they break basically every 20 minutes so you can't even just leave them running while you explore or do another task on another site. I wouldn't blame him one bit for using the dupe wand to actually make the game playable or he would be spending weeks of just grinding resources to make a build half this big.

Oh man what to say about this episode lol. ~Drills that at or above ground level will only produce ice chunks, no frost rocks. ~Ice chunks still contain resources so you are actually wasting resources sending those ice chunks back up top. ~2 drills making only ice chunks are required to keep belt running non-stop.

Matt, If you put drill above basic lvl of dirt(like 1 block above basic level) drill will only produce ICE, u need 2 drills fir 100% uptime without any sorting. Later Big Harvester can produce water so if u have high number of drills u will not need any ice melter.

Some tips i feel like you dont know: 1.:you can put items in a cart before buying them to stack them infinitely and purchase the whole thing by parking the cart in the buy zone. 2.:there are structural items like stairs, floors and walls which make going back and forth in the mine easier just so you dont have to use the flight helmet and you could also build a bridge with the m if you wanted to. 3.: logistics is op, use it 4: watch a tutorial on how water and lava pressure works in the game cus its just too long to write here 5.: you could have easily got lots of tokens with npc quests, not just the dino skeleton guy 6.: (this isnt a tip really) when an item touches conveyor, cart or car storage they lose all collision so literally nothing can effect them until they are moved off

Yeah it's a pipe hook, place closest to the items using pipe power (we can't call it just hydro power anymore) and you can see how low the pressure is before it goes inside for example a drill. Practically worthless to put right next to a pressure booster pipe since it just resets to Max at that location again. Soooooo they're basically best used as a tool rather than a permanent fixture. Just bring one around and pop it in when and where you need info. I only leave in places that frequently have pressure changes.

It doesn't matter where the dirt comes from, only the height value of the drill itself. If it is placed above the natural surface by a block or two, then you shovel a bit of dirt under the gear looking spot on the bottom, it'll give you only ice, its so much more efficient for belt powering than his set up.
