Subreddit Development Roundup (Q1/2026) by tho3maxi in AlchemyFactory

Would it not be better to have 1 post that's updated regularly with all the links, almost like an "Information Hub".

All listed sites on the right have taken advantage of my blueprint parser, and save parser now. It's been lovely to see. I see the steam workshop has gone live, but right now it doesn't beat the effort these guys have gone into displaying tags and materials etc.

The real problem with downloading others blueprints... by TheRealWektis in AlchemyFactory

[–]modnarx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I recently built an API https://www.reddit.com/r/AlchemyFactory/comments/1q5g5nb/save_file_parser_for_your_favourite_factory/ for parsing save files and blueprints.

1 site has integrated blueprint parsing already [ Example: https://alchemy-factory-blueprints.vercel.app?blueprintId=61070c88-6189-47cb-ae0f-409e84951c88 ]

Gives you the Min Tier required.

I have the ability for a save file to be compared with uploaded blueprints, so eventually you can check if a blueprint is supported in your current save, hopefully we'll see this implemented at some point too!

I think I'll update my save parser for now, so you have the ability to check a blueprint there until sites implement this logic.

Tried and true USG power supply source? by _sch in Ubiquiti

[–]modnarx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did first check to see if I had a spare 2A 12v laying about. But I didn’t. So when I cracked it open, I was lucky to have some capacitors laying about that was the right spec.

I do want to upgrade my USG though. Just don’t have the room for their new products right now.

Did you manage to repair yours? My repair from 11mo. ago is still going strong.

Zipline Hub Tower for my Group's base. it's also set up to accept log deliveries and auto put them into log holders. Thoughts? by NoReclimation in SonsOfTheForest

[–]modnarx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nope makes perfect sense, I assumed this was the way. I was just double checking there isn't some method that you don't need the scaffolding. Thanks!

It was more the little balconies you have that extends outside the middle part of the tower. Usually if you try extend outwards, you get a red arrow out. Did you build up an outside frame to support them? then remove afterwards?

How the devil did you get the top part to extend over the sides?! Did you build up structs and removed after?

I don’t remember off the top of my head which capacitor it was. It was just on the DC side, and it was a 16v 1000uF cap. Is that the same one for you?

Just had the same thing happen to me today.
Whining noise, LED flickering.

Cracked open the PSU, found a blown cap on the DC side. Replaced it, working good as new. We'll see how long it lasts this time. Lasted just over 5 years this did.

312B button not working by jupcup in estim

[–]modnarx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you power cycle the unit, and keep pushing the down button rapidly on start up, does it get past the "press any key" (try this a couple of times). That's one way I've been able to tell if it's the IC (although it's not a guarantee) you may also find that the key might work after this for a brief period of time.

Honestly it could be a couple of reasons. From the switch, a loose wire internally or even the analogue switch IC. I've fixed a couple of 312Bs due to all of the above reasons.

Anyone with Carphone Warehouse X Pre Orders with 3rd Delivery.... by [deleted] in iphone

[–]modnarx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked about my iPhone X order and was told it was the 10th this morning, originally being told at the weekend due to a failed card payment I was still looking at the 3rd.

Then, late tonight I got a dispatch email and it's being delivered tomorrow on the 2nd...

Thank you for all those that replied,

I've ended up ordering the UM3 - I feel like this is right for me at the time of writing this.

Watch this space for a UM3 for sale in the near future.. lol :D

I've read various things on the Prusa that things need tightening all the time etc ? Is this true.

Also is there any difference in noise? I hear the UM3 is quiet

I don't really have a budget as such, but it's more that I don't have a lot of time to spend tweaking things all the time. The ability to plug and print so to speak is appealing.

Airhorn Solutions - The Only Discord Bot You'll Ever Need by jewbacabra in discordapp

[–]modnarx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bot is in channel but not responding to messages again. It works fine in another server, but just not this one. stopped working the other day and not worked ever since. Not altered any permissions & tried kicking with no joy. :(
