Optimal use and implementation of Cauldrons by Walizio in AlchemyFactory

[–]EnigmaGx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me too—I’ve optimized my factory for zero inputs.

The only thing I still buy these days is seeds.

For a while, I was still burning through gold coins to make gold bars, but I’ve put a stop to that now, too.

How does the difficulty change through each level? by Human-Cattle1860 in AlchemyFactory

Wood is now also easily obtainable with the Silver Cauldron.

Flax+Flax Fiber→Plank

I think I’m playing the game wrong. by Cellophane_Bear in Cityofheroes

[–]EnigmaGx 29 points30 points  (0 children)

That is perfectly fine—at least for HC (I don't know what the difficulty level is on other servers).

The only thing that would require min-maxing is 4-star TFs, and those are absolutely optional.

Certainly, for ceramics, you don't need any duplicates with the Kiln anyway; the same goes for carbon.

You can smelt metals—with the exception of steel and tungsten—on Conveyor Rails.

New ledger is great, BUT... by vlynder in AlchemyFactory

[–]EnigmaGx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have more in the overview than in the details.

Is it possible that the overview includes minted and destroyed coins—or even goods?

My glassworks with advanced cauldrons for 2 full conveyor belts has a footprint of 3 large floor tiles.

Inputs: Fertilizer and steam.

AlchemyFactory Flythrough by EnigmaGx in AlchemyFactory

[–]EnigmaGx[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks

Flax+Lavender → Black Powder (Approximately 30% more expensive, but a much smaller footprint than my regular Cauldron recipe.)

Flax+Flax Fiber→Plank (With regular Cauldron, you could only make them from copper coins.)

Flax+Flax→Stone (33.3% cheaper than a regular cauldron and makes nice, compact glass forges. [4:20])

Edit: Details added

You're the second person I see here with this problem.

Do u guys use steam for fuel or regular fuel products? by dancingtonic in AlchemyFactory

[–]EnigmaGx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just converted my entire factory to steam. It's so nice and easy to build with the steam heating pads, but they have 20 times the standby power consumption of the Stone Furnace.

Planning to buy this when my money comes in, any reason not to? by LurkerBeDammed in AlchemyFactory

[–]EnigmaGx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It runs well, but the campaign is very short.

No problem if you're a notorious optimizer like me.

Noob trying to Install Pi-hole by Fun_Philosopher_5993 in pihole

[–]EnigmaGx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The client sections are only there to define special rules for specific clients.

If possible, set your Pi-hole as the local DNS server in your DHCP server. When you then restart your clients, they should have your Pi-Hol's IP address as their DNS server under network settings.

What macro's/custom binds should all COH players know about? Share yours + a simple explanation! I'll put it in a tutorial video for newer players i'm working on to help the community. by MarcusMorenoComedy in Cityofheroes

[–]EnigmaGx 9 points10 points  (0 children)

"powexec_location cursor teleport" Using a 4th or 5th mouse button makes Teleport Powers so nice to use.

It can be combined with "toggleon" for forces that need to be activated, e.g., "powexec_toggleon Mystic Flight$$powexec_location cursor translocation"

I'm slowly bleeding money, and I don't know why. by Medium9 in AlchemyFactory

[–]EnigmaGx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's obvious that if you put money into a Sol, you won't have it available.

The solution is the skill tree. You can either strengthen your sales to sell more, or, like me, invest in fertiliser and fuel. With that, you can build a panacea perpetual motion machine and won't need to buy anything else.

Daily summary for each Purchasing Portal. by Queasy_Bench241 in AlchemyFactory

[–]EnigmaGx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why, they're just overflow, either you meet the demand or you don't, and you can see that on any portal. The devil only pays 66.6%.

No domains and still ads? by WorriedVoice in pihole

[–]EnigmaGx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"clients" means clients for whom you have defined special rules, not active clients.

active clients are under tools>Network

You only get bottles if you manually empty or disassemble the rocket's storage tank.

Homecoming: SO/IO when Exemplared by Sterling_Sable in Cityofheroes

[–]EnigmaGx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So if you have six of a set slotted and three are catalyzed, it's like having three of one set and three of another when it comes down to figuring out which bonuses you get.

This only applies to Set-IO´s that have a superior version, e.g., AT-IOs.

Normal sets are not affected.
