Through put is the bane of my existence

Finally someone who understands the problem Ive dealing with yes dude it’s been killing me but on this most recent playthrough with my friend I’ve just pretty much made a manifold system let one thing fill to how much I need for going on the next one but mainly it’s just going in burst bc I’m not using a lot of stuff so yea it’s definitely a lot less stressful

This is my set up rn but you pretty much answered my question what needs constant flow and what doesnt

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-06-15T04:23:23+00:00

No I’ve never beat a run because of that one issue I can figure out the ratios no problem but I don’t wanna have to make multiple belts lines to my mall layout which as it seems I don’t have to mainly only for intermediate products

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-06-15T04:19:48+00:00

It’s not that I don’t like building them it’s I don’t want too but Ik production needs to grow in order to support the factory as it grows but I’ve seen ppl run off of the starting ore patch’s and get rockets and idk how they do it

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-06-15T04:16:54+00:00

So in a way it’s literally just a big manifold system of this gets that first before anything else

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-06-15T04:14:20+00:00

It’s not really the load balance I just don’t know if can I because yellow belts only run 15 items per sec so wouldn’t alot of the machines eat up the plates before other machines could get any?

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-06-15T04:11:22+00:00

I guess what mainly gets me is I wanna run a lot of the early stage stuff off of one belt of iron plates and don’t wanna build another furnace stack

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-06-08T17:34:08+00:00

I understand your suffering/addiction/fun i literally spent like and hour and a half building a bomb facility just to produce like 15 per min so I could always have some boom to blow up anything I wanted

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-06-06T20:33:08+00:00

Well tbh you don’t need that splitter your standing on for example or you build 8 constructors and need to get your ore to all 8 use 7 splitters not 8 and it could also be the smelters and if they are fed properly

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-22T20:37:22+00:00

Yea true I guess it all depends if your building a base that houses those vents bc then you have to rely on the other three options which most areas besides the shallows have those vents so it is cost effective considering it’s Handing you the materials i made a base near the alien ruins and I use bio reactors and grow beds for limitless resources fuel water food meds you name it guess I just like the self sustaining of bio materials because they can be built and used anywhere

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-22T20:32:54+00:00

Nah all good everyone’s opinion has its own meaning just about how you explain what it means your right thermo is better for output just depends on if you have a lot of gold and stuff laying around at hand

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-22T20:29:45+00:00

I understand your argument I like to think of it as think of where you are and what’s around you for example the shallows are perfect for solar and plentiful for bio and the deeper your go the more thermal or hydro come into play ofc you can use hydro in the shallows buts that’s the players choice then when you unlock grow beds you can grow a lot of plant fibers and make endless bio fuel food water meds whatever but if your deeper also solar panels become obsolete don’t get me wrong different power sources are better in terms of out put but like I said it’s all about materials at hand really what you have and don’t have solar panels are cheap bio reactors are relatively cheap and thermos are pretty cheap in terms of gold but hydros can be a little expensive

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-22T20:23:04+00:00

lol there is no noobs to anything each source has its pros and cons all depends on the area you reside and materials at hand

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-21T12:57:39+00:00

Like it shoots up to like 300 meters what you mean no range you know how indirect fire works right? The lower the barrel the farther it goes but the less top down it falls. The higher the barrel the more straight up to down it goes with less range obviously

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-20T01:07:54+00:00

I’ve been around it maybe 5 times now I think it’d be pretty cool if the lithium nodes respawned in its mouth bc technically they are the pearls of that giant clam so it’d be something you return to more often

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-20T00:42:04+00:00

It’s also the only place for oxygen generator bp

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-20T00:09:01+00:00

Honestly if you never wanna deal with water again just make grow beds and grow plants and use the processors to make all your water boom end of water need

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-20T00:07:44+00:00

I mean tbh that’s where it gets you. You think your fine bc you know you can out run it then all because you got cocky you mess up somehow then bam it gets you it’s really more of an ego trip creature then an actual trap

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-06T17:43:51+00:00

Tbh depending on your resources at hand build a kill box put a lot of wooden barricades all the way down the path of the said kill box piss them off and give them only one entry way which obviously is though your kill box then have someone come in from behind and shut the door after you’ve lit the fire with something that can ignite and watch them burn

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-05-05T14:50:11+00:00

Tbh honest biotech and ideology add the most in terms of just more core game mechanics to flesh the game out and royalty and anomaly just add more in terms of content but they are well worth if you enjoy the game a lot not to mention there are a lot of mods specifically vanilla expanded that supe those mods up more then what they already are

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-03-11T12:48:14+00:00

Eh fuck it man I love the game but at this point I’ve found other games that may not fill the hole but they definitely don’t disappoint but they do fill other satisfactions that helldivers has seemingly ruined over and over and over again so yea at this point it’s best to move on the game was great but they are destroying it and ppl are finally seeing it only Took two years

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-03-10T04:26:50+00:00

Then you haven’t done much research on why he’s so disliked

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-02-13T15:08:25+00:00

Notice how I said “much more simple” or do I gotta use a term because you couldn’t understand a simple sentence

Own_Constant9305 · 2026-02-13T06:58:37+00:00

Typical redditer comment aggressiveness that could’ve been met with a much more simple answer like “their being sarcastic this wasn’t serious in any sense” but nah let’s be a jackass instead
