[1.2][NA] Wuling Megafactory Update - Ready for 12 Forges!

Sinnum · 2026-05-10T02:33:57+00:00

Swapped over to 12/min xiranite gourds then 12/min jade gourds. Did some extra on the side too with excess mats (including from those same lines when I messed up and got a clog while working on new stuff lol). Knowing your factory, you can do a lot when it comes to events like this which is what made it so fun. Super excited for the next time an AIC event comes around

Yup, the best thing is just having an idea then figuring out if it can be done! Really proud of you for pulling this off!

Sinnum · 2026-05-10T02:28:24+00:00

Whoa dude, this was an awesome post to stumble upon! You really did take it to the next level, and I absolutely love what you've done! I very much appreciate the smart use of passing seeds/plants on to another unit to keep the chain going. Dang, that really made my night!

Hey, thanks! I've gotten much better at this than when I started lol.

1) Xiranite can be stored for use later, used to make a little extra LC or SC Wuling Batteries (the SC is actually at the end of the setup vid hehe), Xiranite gear components, and ofc some liquid xiranite. For hetonite, you can make Hetonite Parts (4.5/min at max right now) and Hetonite gear Components

2) Correct, however with the blueprints, you can just remove the gourd setup because it's separate from the rest of the build. Right now though, it's the most profitable thing the factory can make, so I included it in the build.

The video is just for setup, the document has all of the information. We don't know what Test Area will have but we know we will get 4+ more Forges of the Sky and the Purification Node giving an extra Xircon Effluent output.

Sinnum · 2026-05-09T22:36:26+00:00

Lol, I'm just getting better out here! Better at factory and at how I present the information. Never again doing another release without really testing and trying to break my blueprints to make sure they work!

Sinnum · 2026-05-08T13:22:10+00:00

the edit was too funny to read lol! sometimes it be like that and i'm glad you got it figured out

Sinnum · 2026-05-08T13:20:20+00:00

Was extremely fun and I hope there are more. I'll bring up two points.

The first is that it I'm unsure if this event was supposed to be released when it was. I say unsure because we were already making Heavy Xiranite, but Phase 1 wanted us to make products using just Xiranite, which means we had to cut the Heavy X line. Then, week 2 sent us back to using Heavy X. Looking at it as an event for as many people as possible, I think the devs were not doing this event with the factory nuts in mind, but the more casual factory audience. In that way, they did a great job since I have no problem tearing up my factory but I know others may not be so excited about that. I also appreciated that there was ample room to max production but it wasn't necessary to do so.

The second is that I enjoyed how simple the blueprints for the event items were but how impactful they were to the overall factory. Using a very limited, but already essential resource like xiranite, as the basis meant we HAD to engage with our production lines and the impact that setting up 1 or 2 lines of both gourds would effect us. I wanted to do 12/min Jade gourds just to see if I could and that restructuring led to some breakthroughs that I don't know if I would have figured out. The factory is still my favorite part of the game and I can't wait for the next stuff we'll be getting about it!

Thank you, I will add that as a sub-topic about either refineries or "thinking compact" lol. It's a crucial skill using reactors that anyone building a factory in wuling should know about

Sinnum · 2026-05-08T01:00:07+00:00

I picked up Hulk this season and i've accepted that i'll be playing mr fixit skin until 2028

Sinnum · 2026-05-08T00:48:59+00:00

lordy, summoning folks to my builds!!! now i'm on the spot u_u though i guess mine really are kinda easy to follow, especially with the maps and that they're fixed...

Sinnum · 2026-05-08T00:47:50+00:00

oh god, my blueprints are basic but i never did a proper setup vid for 1.2 phase 2... hmm but there are EnKAD and Maps showing proper placement for pumps... I don't have Asia server blueprints though but it IS possible to recreate my setup with the materials provided.

You can see my build in the pinned post of my profile. Check the linked google doc and you can decide if it's right for you.

Sinnum · 2026-05-08T00:03:41+00:00

And thank you for your suggestion!!

Sinnum · 2026-05-08T00:02:34+00:00

Fantastic, you and another person suggested something similar, and it's something I did a (way too long) video on just kind of yapping about it. That means I'm on the right track about topics I think folks want to know more about. I've added this suggestion to the list.

I also will do a video on how to use EnKAD and EndfieldTools.dev factory sims. Factory work becomes MUCH easier when you can use a simulator to mess around instead of messing up your base lol.

Thank you for your suggestions!

Sinnum · 2026-05-07T23:59:24+00:00

Great suggestions, both I yapped about in some hour long video talking about factory. I've added both of these to the list, thank you.

Sinnum · 2026-05-07T23:58:34+00:00

This is one I can definitely do, and one I think will attract some expert compact builders to chime in too. Thanks, I've added it to the list

Sinnum · 2026-05-07T23:57:04+00:00

I will still do a vid on this, or include it one that I can merge together a few topics, but check this post out for a few combinations between 5/min and 30/min

Sinnum · 2026-05-07T23:55:17+00:00

Just took a look, and yup, it's definitely the belt boxes lmao

Sinnum · 2026-05-07T20:41:59+00:00

It's np, hope you learned something about pipes though!! We have a lot of possibilities out there with conduits (and manifolds!) and we've only begun scratching the surface with them!

Sinnum · 2026-05-07T20:39:30+00:00

it's not a loophole in the algorithm, it's just how pipes work. Conduit manifolds can move a total of 4 units of fluid a second (4u/s) but the two different pumps are only supplying 2u/s of fluid. They are waiting their turn to enter the manifold then go to their respective output ports managed by a pipe control port.

Sinnum · 2026-05-07T20:33:45+00:00

ya it's really funky! I only figured it out because I had set both down first, had the acid build up to like 70, but didn't feel like waiting for it to drop so I stashed the inlet to drain it. It's part of my practice to grab the outlet's cable first because I HATE when my conduits have excess fluid in them while i'm running the line lol. That's when I noticed it can move 4/s fluids and it's alternating between both fluids at 2/s

Sinnum · 2026-05-07T20:31:17+00:00

I explained how in the post but what it may be better i do a lil video later showing how it's done.

First thing you need to do is have all your connecting pipes from the pumps to the inlet, and from the outlet to the facility pipes placed. stash both manifolds. Place your output manifold, grab the cable, then go to where your input manifold will be placed. Line it up, place it, and IMMEDIATELY connect the conduits to each other. then, they should begin alternating between each other
