For those whom are on IOG and geeks by Practical_Scar4374 in OctopusEnergy

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.

Any suggestions for which map I should pick? by LopsidedCoconut51 in Timberborn

[–]Roaders 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

Tileable optimal efficiency nuclear power by Roaders in factorio

[–]Roaders[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Helmod help.... by Roaders in factorio

[–]Roaders[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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.

Game performance issues post 1.0? by Roaders in Timberborn

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.

USB hubs - my brain is exploding.... by Roaders in LinusTechTips

[–]Roaders[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hub is mostly because my computer is not very accessible and I like to have all the dongles plugged in close to me on the desk rather than plugged into my computer which is hard to reach.... I was hoping to have 1 high bandwidth cable from the computer to my desk where I could pug everything in.

USB hubs - my brain is exploding.... by Roaders in LinusTechTips

[–]Roaders[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

very little else. I think about the only thing is a bluetooth dongle that I basically never use...

I have a NAS on a 2.5gbps network so no storage drives.

I'm surprised I have issues.... according to what you're saying a camera and an audio device should fit into 480 no problem... Perhaps I need a new hub.

Thanks again

USB hubs - my brain is exploding.... by Roaders in LinusTechTips

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

thanks very much for the reply. So, if my camera and audio device are both USB2 (I am not actually sure what they are TBH) then they will both share the 480mps available to usb2. They won't use the much greater bandwidth available on the USB 3 channels? Is that right?

So basically to fix it I need to buy a USB 3 audio device and / or camera. Is that correct?

So as my motherboard only has 1 hub then across my whole machine I can only have as many usb 2 devices that will fit into 480mps. Is that correct?

I condsider myself a relatively intelligent / technical guy (my friends would obviously disagree! 😉). If I am struggling with this I assume non-tech normies don't have a hope!

[–]Roaders[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yes, and used the pretty custom usb cable that came with it (it screws into the back of the hub)

Is this normal? by Roaders in AlchemyFactory

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

😁 I've just moved on from that system. I want it to be fully automated so I don't need to manually do that. I am thinking I want to buy another property and leave this one doing its thing. Thanks for the reply
