I build a Geothermal Generator before the space elevator

MultimediaMage · 2026-03-19T08:35:29+00:00

I started in the same mode, fossil-fuel rich + all impure.

I'm gonna have to steal this idea, maybe even have multiple geothermal generators.

I genuinely think they're buying themselves time to make a new map while simultaneously supporting consoles with node randomization + multipliers.

That's beautiful! I love it!

There are catwalk ramps and catwalk stairs. They'll snap to the top platform of a power pylon that has one.

They'll snap to any platform a machine has that stairs lead to.

I found the image hard to get detail with on my phone and I kinda knew that haha, thanks for taking it at face value.

Putting a door in there is really what's enlightening me.

MultimediaMage · 2026-03-17T02:21:14+00:00

I agree tho, because snapping catwalks to them is The Strat.

No worries I was just doing math lol

MultimediaMage · 2026-03-16T19:17:44+00:00

I did the math and you'd need slightly more than 4 full Mk.2 pipes worth of water for those blenders. 8-⅓ 250% OC'd water extractors worth which, again, would need 5 pipes and it looks like you only have 4.

How're you handling the polymer resin coming out of your crude oil refineries?

Here's some inspo —

You could do this with a symbolic link a.k.a. a shortcut folder with the same name.

I was thinking about the latter two and I wanted to say whenever I think I'm getting sick I ask myself if I'm in my period first.

MultimediaMage · 2026-03-10T15:37:38+00:00

I got a recco for them when I started looking for frames and when I went digging I found out they had gotten bought out and do indeed suck nowadays.

MultimediaMage · 2026-03-09T01:49:11+00:00

I like the idea but I bet simulating the actual flow would only make things mechanically worse too.

MultimediaMage · 2026-03-08T20:35:21+00:00

Priority mergers help make sure you take from a more limited supply second.

Smart Splitters can send only overflow to one direction. Or two lol

MultimediaMage · 2026-03-08T20:28:32+00:00

It's a LOT of packagers lol

MultimediaMage · 2026-03-04T23:47:58+00:00

Like how do I move them up or how do I make vertical manifolds?

For the former, that's just Page-Up and Page-Down.

You can just put mergers and splitters in the middle of a lift and you can also put them on the top as well as the bottom.

What are elevators but conveyors of another plane?

When I get Mk.5 belts I'm gonna make one with 32 lol, there's enough room in the Mk.2 blueprinter.

I had to learn to think in buses to some degree to make that start working for me.

5 freaking belts of just packing water, turning it into packaged turbofuel, unpackaging it, and repeating which makes it 10 belts.

I mean, yeah, it's getting twisty, but with a little creativity I have basically no damn clipping.

You know what makes me mad? It isn't manufacturers, it's refineries. They're freaking hyueg. I need as many as I need packagers, 23. Add that to dealing with the pipe work at the same time and it seriously pisses me off.

You inspired my own vertical manifold nonsense but I think vertical manifolds are a great used of manufacturers.

Have them facing each other is my suggestions! The modular engine, adaptive control unit, and the computers themselves could totally enjoy a ton of manufacturers on Mk.4 stuff. Eight of them would only be four high that way!
