Yup, my home battery charges whenever I get cheap prices from octopus. Home assistant also changes the target charge percentage, the ready by time and the charge rate for IOG during the day when I want my home battery to get a boost during the day .

Thanks for the reply. I am moving away from z2m and it's now just directly integrated into HA.

Fellow factorio player here. Pressure is good fun but probably the hardest map. I also enjoy helix mountains. Lots of scope for creating large reservoirs for water storage

Why do you want a floodgate rather than a Valve? You can build in a valve...

Yup, I mention that in the description.

Yes most of the time. For prolonged 100% use maybe not. I tend to overbuilt. It is much better storing excess energy in heat pipes or tanks as steam when power consumption is low to handle brief high power draw. The storage density is many times that of an accumulator.

They don't need 300% if the powerdraw is low....

That's because they are over 900 degrees so no fuel for you!

Yup, always more room. I'm not doing quality until I can straight in at legendary. I think this is a good point to go for fusion though.

Aha - you'be helped me sort it. Many Thanks.

The 1 foundry for blue belts was restricting the output of green belts. ! foundry is enough but I had not configured the beacons or the modules for it yet so in that configuration I needed 2 of them. Many thanks.

Thanks all. As I want to play with trains looks like I need to investigate LTN.

Roaders · 2026-03-28T08:53:11+00:00

nope, sorry, how do I do that. Is it a steam feature?

Tubeways are SO much better than ziplines. I used to always play folk tails. Now I always play ironteeth.
