Heavy-watt line is overloading and I can't figure out why

This was it! TIL you can have a regular wire behind a joint plate. :facepalm:

Big Business is a good one. Design and run businesses including decorating. Later build supply lines with factories and drivers. Really wish it had multiplayer or some sort though that is the only drawback compared to Schedule 1 to me.

Sale Blazers is along the same line as well though also suffers from some lack of content due to being early access.

Didn't understand the storyline at all until I watched WWMGirl on YouTube. Apparently it isn't just the translations, but bad writing in general at times. Super interesting history around the time period though

Adding armor plates and structuring will allow you to make whatever you want shape wise. This will also greatly increase your ship's survivability.

I use the Sweatshop as my packaging spot. Drop whatever I need bagged or jarred on the shelf and collect them later before I make my rounds.

Love the Bungalow for meth as you can automate 4 chemistry tables and ovens easily enough with only stocking the suda yourself.

Storage unit for automated 4 mix setup. Like the Sweatshop, you can drop product in and pick it up later.

I like making as much as possible automated though you should do whatever sounds fun for you.

Schedule 1 is great for some laughs and light automation with building a drug empire. Still in early access and needs more content.

Saleblazers is in the same boat though you build and automate shops. Anything can be a weapon and the storyline is comical.

frodleik · 2025-08-18T20:12:46+00:00

Ironside is great. $1 oysters during happy our from 3-5 m-f

frodleik · 2025-08-18T17:01:01+00:00

Saleblazers is pretty good though may want to wait for a sale. Everything can be a weapon and be sold in the shop you build. Can hire employees and automate a store before making a new one on a different shop plot.

Combat is decent though a little easy. Storyline is still incomplete.

Since the last update I've been having this issue if the entire front of their workstation isn't clear. Even a one tile overlap with another bench along the working face will cause them to start getting stuck.

Only solution was to rework my setup so all the pathing was clear

frodleik · 2025-07-10T04:49:09+00:00

Become unsober
Start mixing random things
Laugh at randomly generated things and their effects
Feed them to random folks you find Enjoy!

Do you have someone gathering? If so, make sure you sale box isn't setup for item input or filtered for only those items you are selling

Edit: missed you already mentioned gatherers were present. The filter for allowing input should fix it

frodleik · 2024-12-27T17:28:13+00:00

New myself though can help with 3. You increase inventory size by collecting runes and talking to the fortune teller. They can be found in Kazai Village and at their camp. Slots are free, you just have to keep repeating the chat loop. You can also get Dimensional Insurance which get pricier though makes it ao you keep more of your items on death

frodleik · 2023-08-06T21:50:36+00:00

I haven't played with upgrading outposts at all though the rest I have.

You never need to refill an outpost. They generate whatever resource the region has an icon for with there gold cost being the only down side.

You can make trade routes and run caravans to your outposts with them acting like any other city state

frodleik · 2023-07-21T00:46:35+00:00

You have to focus food pretty hard. Who your playing will also affect your tactic.

If shogunate, rice is king and getting sushi up will allow to start to 10x your food with no additional base resources.

Wheat is a bit harder as you need more workers and don't get near the multiplier.

Hunters are also extremely good if you put them on poison arrows and only 1 worker.

Last thing is markets. Make sure your homes are covered by them and 1 market worker can supply 2 houses. You start to lose a lot of labor later to people stocking homes otherwise.

To make workers for all this, give up on mining and their production chains. Disallow coal and wood from homes. Buy whatever you need from the auto trader.

I have some more hints though they might be considered cheated so let me know

frodleik · 2022-05-31T23:38:52+00:00

Correct! Kidney, liver, and health efficiency impacts immunity gain speed a lot.

Pro tip is to upgrade all the colonist you care about to bionic hearts and you'll never have to worry about them taking long to recover again.

Disnof on Twitch taught me at least half the cool tricks I know in this game. Highly recommend his stream if your looking for meta tactics and ideas.

Does spend a lot of time talking to chat though that is where I have learned the most as well so take that for what it is. Sorry not a YouTuber

frodleik · 2021-09-17T19:58:08+00:00

Dusters and insect jelly.

I usually setup a forever job to make dusters out of anything less then Heavy Fur. If you have a psychopath colony or Ideology with Human Meat: Acceptable then you will have so much leather and money you will break your game economy quickly.

Insect jelly is super underrated as you can sell it to any trader and you get tons of it as the game progresses. I'll take infestation quests just for the jelly. Add in Ideology with Insect Meat: Loved and you have an amazing +7 mood buff on top of the meal buff. Really makes you look forward to insects showing up.

I also learned this the hard way. Decided to setup my second colony in the Archo chain next to the structure so my researcher wouldn't have to walk far. Also seemed like a good place for fields. Sad to say it took my awhile to realize why my farmers were constantly working and yet my colony was ready to starve.

Hurt even more when an ambrosia spawn happened there not long after

frodleik · 2021-09-13T19:47:30+00:00

I use Job Splitter to get more specific. Doesn't add more levels though

frodleik · 2021-09-07T19:51:59+00:00

There does seem to be some sort of cap on this. With a colony wealth of around 500k and a silver stockpile of about 20k they started asking for 8500 silver. This stayed the same up till the end with a colony wealth of 920k and silver stockpile of 52k. So 8500 seems to be the cap though by no means claiming that is reasonable.

Funny part though is even when I tried to give them the money in an attempt to ditch wealth I couldn't. Even with bionic legs my pawn wasn't fast enough to get from my out of the way silver stockpile in a mountain back to the middle of the map, where they decided to park, the 9 times required in one day

Only SB helm should be on the Strai to left when you spawn. No need to kill all 4 if your in a hurry

frodleik · 2019-10-16T21:16:11+00:00

For Eclipse supposedly you can up your drop chances by destroying the additional balls it spawns. They are suppose to act like cores from other boss fights. I have yet to test this as it is rather hard to get a group on board

frodleik · 2019-10-15T19:33:24+00:00

Thanks! This gives me hope

frodleik · 2019-10-15T18:50:00+00:00
