2 things:
Take the boosters off your flamethrower tank, use the roller to flatten the first 4 layers of snow, then the tank to remove the rest. Add 1 booster to the tank, repeat. Add 2nd booster, repeat... claim cleared :)
If you made Tier 3 tools (specifically the pick) using the masterwork designs available at the shop, they won't have the 3 skull debuffs for each stat - makes clearing dirt manually much easier.
On the second thing, it's all about the right tools for the right job. I keep those junk tools around in case I need to bore out a small hole. The base line tools do better jobs, but also, they take away more ice. It's a trade and sometimes, I'm not looking to clear out an entire block of ice in one swing. That's just me though.
I'm also not the biggest fan of the RNG the forge marks have. I just made a heavy drill with 1 improved speed and -3 output........And that was right after I had forged a heavy harvester with 2 improved vein bonus and 3 output bonus on it...... I feel like the debuff part is unnecessary.
and you can even add buff \o/
You're a real"er" civil engineer.
Matt's brain must be gaining architecture cells.
@@steeljawX Can you save scum it?
Clearing claims with flammenpanzer should be quite easy, just remove all boosters, clear Tier 1, add one - clear Tier 2, add both - clear Tier 3. Just activate some engineering logic ;-)
problem is that all of those tiers are deeper than the tank is tall
meaning you still tunnel into them
would be eeasier if the thing would even out perfectly and not make you drive a slope
@@Zanta100 I've only "played" Hydroneer on UA-cam... But if you rise your flammenwerfer up and it is still not enough to clear the remaining roof, then it is clearly a flaw on the gamedev part. Or, alternatively, you can melt snow driving backwards on those floors/roofs to create the "staircase" gaps, this way you will have access to all the snow tiers in your claim.
There's still a thick ceiling even with pointing your jets up
Thiz is ze flammenpanzer...
It panzer flammen
@@mountainman4128its just how the game was made
Matt when he forgets that the crane is a crane, and he could have left it at the top and lowered the drills through a small vertical hole
He couldn't get them into place that way though
@@environmentalmatrix5898 which makes the whole crane system for the heavy stuff incredibly stupid
to use it you need to dig out half the claim but you have no real tools for that
@@environmentalmatrix5898 why couldnt he put them where he wants. Just dig the shaft where you want it.
@@wittyjoker4631 The oversight needed for that is a bit much. It's easier after you've already got the means to make those heavier machines. Like if he went and got a new fresh claim and decided he'd make it with only heavy machinery, he could do a much better setup. It's integrating the heavy machines into existing smaller systems that is a pain. Getting the "conduits" in the ice for the conveyors and plumbing is a pain and digging straight down can reasonably only be done by hand (very slowly) or by explosives (very expensive.) Also (I apologize for assuming your knowledge on the game. I honestly don't know your familiarity with it) the deeper down drills are placed the better resources they'll dig up. He could place them on the surface and get a lot of pocket change massing up, but it's a better value to put those deep and get as much as you can out of them.
You clearly never tried to replace a Harvester all the way at the bottom of a claim only for it to constantly get stuck on everything else!
Since you are continuing in creative mode anyway. There is a new mod called HeavyLifter by ItchyBeard with which you can move the heavy drills and the harvester by hand.
You have emphasized why I believe the devs or a modder should create a divining rod to locate relics. It's thematically appropriate and can be as precise as they want. The principle of course being that you walk around with the thing and it jiggles until you reach the point where you're above the object and then it's jiggling the most. They could make that be within a few feet or a few meters or what you have you and of course it doesn't tell you how deep it is so you have to figure that part out on your own. It would take all of the tedium out of finding relics though.
Theres a logic relic finder
You can take out the boosters on the lava thaw if you wanna excavate the layers. Should make it a bit easier.
Just more proof the Matt is an Architect 😂
matt, theres relics in the og hydroneer too
Wow you’ve grown since 40k subs. Used to put your vids on when I was studying for electrical electronics engineering exams and I’ve now finished uni. Your growth is ridiculous congratulations love it
That's what she said, and thanks!
I don't have the dlc so I'm not sure if volcano island also has the rake tool, but the rake tool can massively cut down on the time it takes to clear more land with tools, versus pick alone.
If you use your pick to clear out a decent hole of ground in one cubic unit of ground (can dig through many cubes at a time to reduce tool swapping) then use the rake to 'flatten' the wall of a block adjacent to the one you are trying to clear. The result will completely annihilate the ground in the cube 'above' the surface you flatten
Hint for the relic at Cinder Footing. It's impossible to get until you get Tier 3 stuff. That should narrow it down for you as to where you should be looking for that particular one. I haven't found the others, but that one, I've found twice. Once in an experimental creative game and then going back in my normal game after getting tier 3 stuff. It's about in the same place and that one isn't something Tier 1 or 2 can get. (And yes, I know you have Tier 3 stuff. I'm just saying that to give you an idea as to where it is rather that outright telling you the answer.)
The heavy machines are a bit of a pain to get any where. They definitely force you from tunnel mining (which we all do) to open pit mining, which is a bit more of a challenge. If anyone's really wondering what the difference is between the normal harvesters and drills vs the heavy ones (and I'm only sharing because this is after RCE has already got them) is that normal drills and harvester can process ice from every tier, but they require an ice melter to utilize conveyors and drills create 1 ice stone or ice block every 1-2 seconds (whatever their rate is.) Heavy drills get a "burst fire" where they'll drill for about 8-12 seconds (again I don't know the exact duration) where they'll dump a lot more ice out of them. They'll then stop, rotate to the next of their 3 drills on them, and then repeat. So it's more of you get stuff in bursts rather than a steady stream and you can create a steady stream with more of them filled with more stuff with fewer heavy drills in comparison to how many normal drills it'd take to get a similar result. The Heavy Harvester takes the harvester and the ice melter and merges them into the same oversized machine. Ice blocks that go into it both create water and also will generate a small amount of resources and ice stone will get processed normally. I believe the only other benefit from the normal variants is that when you add pressure boosters on the lava intake, that will ultimately also boost the heavy machines performances. But beyond that, you can (for all reasonable intents and purposes) complete the DLC without having to get the heavy machines.
If any thing, and I do mean anything on the crane end up flopping over into an impossible to maneuver position, just hit F to retract the crane and the game will force whatever's on the end of the crane to comply. I've had forge marks fall under the ground after connecting to them. F will rip them up out and get them to a "normal" state.
matt!!! u can put small bars of each resource on sorter tray's to be able to just throw a bar onto a conveyor and now worry about it
Yeah, this is often missed - all sorters in the game support multi-item filters, including manual sorters.
@@rhystedstone I usually put both the bar/gem and the raw ore on my setups just in case. There's always those moments of mental ineptitude where I throw everything onto the sorting line and wonder why there are bars and ores bouncing all over........That's when I had enough and tried "Me"-proofing the system.
counting with RCE. One more step of becoming an Engineer
With the lava thaw, if you want to stay level, you have to keep tapping flame up and level or it will dig in and go too deep. It ends up taking forever but its the only way.
When you set off the second nukes, youtube went to commercial for bandaid.
You can automate the spanner refilling too with a loop of conveyor and the spanner throwers above it with the input hatch facing down.
The spanner bags will go marry round the throwers and fill them up to max. Also the throwers will only take as many spanners out the bag as they need, while leaving the change in the bag.
I think the main reason for the heavy harvester is that it is the water machine and the resource harvester in one so that you can just attach water pipes to it and then just shove all your resources inside and it will do both jobs without the need for them to be sorted by conveyers
Pro tip for the auto repair system at the start, if you flip the reader and dispenser you can leave a bag of spanners on top of the dispenser and it will pull from the bag as they get used
I spent two days using the flamer to clear all the claims to find the relics.
I could be wrong, but if I remember right cinder footing has the relic near the middle in the tier 3 snow.
Also if you craft a pickaxe it'll not have the -3 penalty to size and speed. If you use a forge mark it'll have some random bonuses.
Like the grinding truck before it, the most effective way to use the flame truck and not fall in your own holes or accidentally go deeper is to just drive backwards. It's super easy. I don't know why nobody else ever figures this out.
17:38 that was totally a donkey Kong noise you just made 😂😂😂
Don't stop these series please+
Silly me, I never thought to take the truck down to tier 3, I just dug a large hole and hoisted the drills down to the bottom while having my truck up top
You could make holes and let them sink down on postition basically just as many vertical holes as needed. You can mark positions using dripping lava to have a nice grid.
That's only through Tier 1 ice. Lava won't melt through Tier 2 or 3 ice.
Try to dig a tunnel with enough space to walk through but with dirt at your eyes level,should allow to xray for the relics
That flamethrower vehicle looks like something the Orcs would build in 40k
I just love seeing Matt muck around in the snow
Love Johnny Dangerously. Makes me giggle every time I see the forehead palm!
Can you take the power up things off the flamethrower? Then you can only dig one level at a time, which might make it easier to clear out an area without falling through
The heavy lava harvester is good, insted of having to filter and split the ice (which btw u dont need to split by type, it makes water out of each), u can just dump it all into the heavy, and it makes higher pressure water, and stuff has a harder time getting stuck in it, so it really is a nice one.
“I tried to do it methodically but I got bored, so let’s just go get some Nukes instead”
"We're mating with the flamethrower truck" was something I never thought I would hear
14:12 ghost fly by😂
I don’t see it
@@man-ne1sm something black fly by
You can do live streaming when you are clearing the claim to find the relic if you're bored
You really need to take the scale up the volcano with you.
Or get an extra one to keep up there. It's kind of like having an extra pan to move multiple things with: something so simple you'd think an architect like Matt would think of it.
@@aulvinduergard9952 I never played this game, but the scales feel most important.
I think you're gonna find, like in the base game, that the big nuggets produced by higher tier drills, require a higher tier harvester to digest them. Otherwise they'll just pile up on top of the smaller harvester and block it. So there's more fun.
No, don't stop now, we need more!
Oh yeah Matt is back with hydroneer
16:45 lets game it out would 😂
Can the flamethrower be used while it's hooked onto the crane? It kind of seems like you can at least get into it.
If it works the way I hope it works, maybe you can hook the flamethrower onto the crane, reverse the crane into the claim, get into the flamethrower and melt the snow on all three height settings while it's still hooked on, then get back into the crane and back it up again and repeat the melting process.

I've invented new swear words playing this game.
As an Engineer, Algebra still sucks.
...Well, the original way I was taught it. Teacher made it more complex than it is. 😂
Oh I thought the Jurassic park references were going to catch out gen z but now you've got only fools and horses references in there. Now you are referencing an episode of it that came out when I was 4 and I'm 38.
Matt, congratulations your Josh energy is growing.
You should put a scale at the forge place on the volcano
Have a blessed day, Matt!
i think "lets game it out" would be proud of you here 4:54
I think the Heavy Harvester could've been continuously working if you had simply flipped the conveyors around, so the other drills would send water into it.
Oh man! I love the series.
For your heavy devices you could have saved so much time and had premade holes made to drop them down so you wouldn't of had to drive the crane down underground.
Some claims give more resources than others, some are high in cloutium, some corestone, some ... you get the picture.
They want you expanding to all the claims on this one
9 months later, a cranethrower is born
I would call those nukes an appropriate and measured response engineered to simplify tasks such as ceiling removal.
thanks for adding warnings this time
Only way to really do it cleanly is using a combo of Pick/Rake to go down 1 level then use the roller to clean up just that one level. Pick/Rake to go down another level, then roller to clean up that level. The mole/flamethrower don't stay level and can't be trusted. If you are trying to bypass everything on the way down to a specific level, then the flamethrower w/ the right booster on the back is the best/fastest way.. but you'll never get that mess you left behind cleaned up with machines ever again. It's explosives and picks from then on.
Oh and "recall closest vehicle" while at the top of the volcano respawns you back down at the beginner mining location. Bypassing the whole drive down
That's only if you are trying to clear out the claim entirely. If you're trying to find relics, it's actually much faster to take off the booster tanks and dig exploratory tunnels at T1, put a booster on, go to T2, repeat, then again for T3.
From there, you take a pickaxe to the base of a tunnel 'wall', crouch into it and your head clips through the ground and you get XRay-vision of the surrounding area.
When I did it that way, I got all the relics in maybe 3 hours, and it has the bonus side effect of being able to use the prospector helmet of finding all the ore veins in each claim to see if one of them is really good or not.
The exploratory tunnels are also perfectly flat, because the ground below them is the next tier of ice, which the thaw cannot dig through because we're using the thaw explicitly without the tanks needed for that tier.
I was having a really bad day today your video cheered me up
Yeah, I don't know what the big harvester is for either - it says the yield is better, but unless the dev clarifies what that means, then it's just a waste of effort
the only thing it does is save you from sorting out snow for the water system but at the point where you can realisticaly afford it you already have a sorting system anyway
same for the big drill
at the time you can really use it you need to dig out the whole claim
Hydroneer: it's just a waste of effort (but kinda fun)
@@NETBotic all games are a waste of effort, it's more that this particular waste of effort doesn't seem to do the, admittedly pointless, thing it claims to do :P
@@Zanta100 I wonder if the intent is you are suppose to use them to improve returns on the upper tiers of a claim rather than trying to get them to the bottom?
The better yield part is that when it turns ice into water it also spits out resources for that ice instead of just turning it into water
I really enjoy this serie :)
5:15 I thought he switched to Space Engineers for a second
Oh, this game needs hirable logistics NPC's or some kind of quality of life feature XD
Do you like 'Foo Fighters - Wheels' "Story Time With" Mattuw... If so and this is to not the invisible person who kicks black labradour plushies after being barked at. Understand Matt impatientness is a bleed through, some have spent a long time training so the grind of looking at a bright screen can get a bit weary, probably best you invest in one of those old office screen eye protectors. The one thing about them is they forget what it was to be alive and to be fair you've had a few in game genocides so think long term and if your house guard doesn't stop fkn around with the camera angle I can get to him too.
Lets goo new vid i was working out on the time of upload so i could only catch it now
11:14 isn’t that the relic you were looking for lol
I really enjoy watching these. You have to suffer the grind so I don't have to 😂 Sorry, mate, but you're a public servant and thank you
What grind? He is cheating anyway.
this has really been a speedrun of watching Matt stop enjoying this game
Volcalidus is a weird DLC.
I agree with Matt that some of the decisions made are just weird and not very effective.
Mat dig a hole straight down from the surface where you want the drill. Then from the surface use the crane to drop the drill down the hole.
Build a sorter that sends ise to the melter and everything else to a parking spot that can drop ingots from the bottom of the dig site into the back of your truck.
It'll cut down on trips up and down.
You should buy some of the lava intake pipe boosters for you pipes
You can use more than one intake pipe to increase pressure, you can also use water pipes to tank your vehicles🤓
MATT! I have an idea for you, can you auto refill the auto spanners?
Yes, you can. Set them up to the side of the filters, run a conveyer belt underneath, and then you can just drop toolboxes on the belt to reload the spanner throwers. Make the belt into a loop, the load it up and you can go a long time without needing to pay attention to it.
yoohoo! more hydroneer!
Maybe dig a hole straight down to lower it from the surface.
Thought of building the lave filters in an alternating/logic circuit style?
Make a super bridge going straight up the side of the mountain
Guess in the future they’re might be a flamethrowing crane 🤷♂️
Do you think that you can bring money back and forth between volcalidus and the starter island?
11:18 I saw the last bone!
This game needs an inventory system
dude, you have like 5-20times more patience (hard to guess) that I would have :D
Yeah, thats definitly how cranes are supposed to lower stuff into a hole...
It's pretty clear that RCE thinks like an architect.
Can he be saved?
😢
Your flames can go up but if you miss some and can't reach them with the flamethrowers try using nukes on top of the floating dirt
Do the veins helmet only show gold or does he need to take the fire drill and hollow out each tier to see what else is there? Maybe a greater deposit of cloutium or however it's spelled. Edit: Oh, he mentioned it.
it shows all possible veins but you need to dig them out to actually see them. its pretty uselss as the range is soo small that you already dig into it with the melter before it turns on
@@Zanta100 Not to mention having iron and gold veins in this game is just getting in the way of detecting potentially useful veins, so strip mining is better in all respects really, and if you have the tokens for the helmets, you might as well use them to buy the flame tank
Good shit. I can only recommend!
I used to want to be a high school teacher. watching him 'learn' is the most frustrating thing
'Forgetting for the nth time' is also a test.
Who's gonna tell RCE that the pick you buy is SO much worse than the one you make, even without a farge mark?
i feel like he made everything he can to loose more time despite saying not liking it :3
Think you need a layer of darker snow under your drills at T3
rce the new harvester put it up top and move all the production up top. replace the ice melter with it and make all the resources from everywhere feed into it
Build an auto filler conveyor for the repair spanners.
If you're done with this, please do more timberborn!
MATT! Construction hammer!
he made another video yayy!!!!
Place the flame tank on the crane move to position climb in flame away what you can then move the crane. Rinse and repeat
Season 8 of timberborn is needed soon
Yea
hopefully
I cannot agree more with you
Matt should play scrap mechanic after this series
I see you turned Hydroneer into Fallout.
You're an engineers, you do calculus and multiplication.
Counting, addition and subtraction is for the plebs.
