    I made a mistake :s sorry! The water extractor should always be set to 300 water - whilst also looping with the 150 water from the aluminum scrap line. Don;t know how I skipped that :s

      It's interesting that you chose 300 Alclad Aluminum Sheets per minute when 240pm seems to be nice and round.
      1x Mk2. Miner on Pure Bauxite at 100%,
      2x Water Extractors at 100%,
      2x Aluminum Solution refineries at 100%,
      1x Aluminum Scrap refinery at 100%,
      4x Foundries at 100%
      8x Assemblers at 100%
      I believe Coal and Quarts are at 50%... And the only oddball is Copper at something like 40% but I honestly just overflow the tree to another line.

    I suspect this has to do with updates changing the amounts needed, but the silica seems to be really off. With 5 foundries running you need (75*5=375) silica. The refineries make 125 which means you need an additional 250. With a single constructor making 37.5 silica that means you need (250/37.5=6.666) constructors making silica. If my math is off, let me know. An easy fix to add a couple constructors and underclock one so the basic layout still works beautifully and absolutely helped me figure how the hell to make all this work. Honestly had no idea you could loop water back in like that using a 1 way valve so that trick alone was a life saver.

    • @Dracule0117
      @Dracule0117 Рік тому +2

      I just ran into this too. If you need to fix it without adding constructors (due to your factory design, etc), you can do so by adding 2 Power Shards to each of the 4 Silica constructors and overclocking each of them to 166.6667% (62.5 produced/minute). Not the energy efficient solution by any means, but it keeps the factory footprint the same.

    @DreamPhreak 3 місяці тому +2

    I've NEVER been able to get valves working right, even when left to the default setting (600). I followed your tutorial exactly, and used your comment replies to make sure I had it the same, but still the valves dont work for me. I removed them entirely and went with a "Variable Input Priority (VIP)" system, where the wastewater is connected like normal, but the fresh water from the pumps are on a separate pipe above the wastewater pipe. Then they're connected with a vertical junction. Instead of valves on both sides, its pumps both pointing towards each other. This prioritizes the bottom-most pipe first, and then fills with the top pipe(s) after. Now my factory is working as it should, completely emptying out the wastewater first. Also can I just say I love your factory design. I had the silica made elsewhere and brought it in via train, and the whole design feels very modular. I could just keep stacking this side by side as much as I want.

  • @simonhagfalk

  • @MinnesotaTravis
    @MinnesotaTravis 2 роки тому

    To get a decent 50/50 mix of Alclad and Casings, I simply added a belt between the final Alclad merger at the end of the 10 assemblers and the aluminum ingot feeder manifold line (the one running in front of the assemblers) so it would take alclad sheets and aluminum ingots to the storage area. I added storage for the alclad sheets but used a smart splitter to split off aluminum ingots and overflow and then added 4 constructors. You don't need 4 (only if you want to produce casings *exclusively* instead of alclad sheets). If you're going 50/50 split, you need to turn off 5 assemblers and use only two constructors, one at 100% and another at 66.6666%. If you *do* want to make just casings, you run all four constructors with the 4th running at only 33.3333% (all assemblers off). Hope this helps!

    You mention going back to the Foundries but don't.
    The water you've corrected in the comments, 1 Water Extractor at 300m³ permanently and 1 additional constructor for the 150m³ to startup the factory until it's recycling the water.
    You produce half the amount of additional silica required, you need to double this so 7 Constructors to make with the last one being clocked at ~66.67%.
    Nice design but very hard to follow from this video. It does give you a very good blueprint to lay all this out though.
    Thanks!

    Always the thing is to plan properly whole chain. I have 50 hours or so in this game, and Alu factory was my 1st really big project. It takes me 10+ hours to calculate and build all together to work. Final effort is Ultra clean main production level with 300 sheets/min and 240 chasing/min. It's all set up for 100% efficiency. Also it's splitted with 3 rules -> 1st further poduction ->2nd storage -> 3rd sink. I Made one mistake during it, so keep it in mind. By the time, when i got mk2 pipes i thought i own the world. Wrong. Didn't calculate my 3 refineries which makes 720 total Alu, way above 600. Fast correction and all gonna smooth now. This really makes me proud when all this little things works perfect together now :)
    PS: IF u are at alu levl u should have more than enough different products to get most of HDD. DO IT! Don't bother with basisc recipes, cos they are much less efficient. for alu: sloppy alumina and pure alu ingot are must have. Cheers

  • @mikepiazzat
    @mikepiazzat 3 роки тому +6

    Nice build, my friend and I just put it up. Upon looking though and seeing the factory in action, it seems we are putting out 250 silica, which will feed into the four foundries, which require 300 silica. These four foundries will put out 240 aluminum ingots, which then are going into 10 assemblers, which need 30 per (300)? Let me know if I am missing something. We put the 33% constructor up to 150%, which gets us up to about 293 silica and killed two assemblers

    • @TotalXclipse

      Hmmm I don't know how I've managed to muck up but apparently I have, the raw quartz line needs 7 constructors set to a total of 6.66 clockspeed. That should resolve it, just don't know how I managed to do that so wrong

    • @STR1K3R55_

      It's 5 foundries. Also if you have 8 extra power shards, you can put two in each constructor and set them to 62.5/min. Should balance out right.

Are you trucking them over, so 4 trucking stations are required? Is it a train? Drone? Or perhaps convayer belts expanding across the entire map. I'm curious because I'm on phase 4 and I keep traveling to all my separate bases to collect things. Since trains and drones are too complex and expensive for me to comprehend. Trucking is more understanding and do-able yet tedious. Thanks.
