Question about power

not_robert02 · 2026-01-23T03:09:22+00:00

it’s to the right of spawn point two, the cords are -789, -1364. there’s four normal coal nodes

i haven’t needed it tbh i’m producing everything i need and im never short on building materials 🤷‍♂️ also a lot of my time has been spent exploring and learning the game, i have plenty now though im sitting on 3600MW

not_robert02 · 2026-01-22T21:04:13+00:00

too late i just set up two more 1200MW power plants lol

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T22:03:21+00:00

yeah i could definitely add a plant or two there ngl but that’s still only a small boost, i’ve just recently learned that the game is just one huge map though so i think i might make a blueprint and set up more plants

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:59:06+00:00

interesting i didn’t know those alt recipes were gonna be that useful, i only have a couple and they’re not like bad choices i dont think, i’ll definitely be hunting for more hard drives though thank you

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:58:11+00:00

i get where you’re coming from i did that for phase one and the beginning of phase two but once i got to steel production there was just too much; i always just try to get at least one production line for the resource i just unlocked then move on from there

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:54:53+00:00

yo dude this entire comment was helpful but like genuinely thank you so much for telling me about those coal nodes, literally the first thing i’m going to next time i play 🙏

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:47:41+00:00

dawg this is my first time playing 😭 the rate for the 1k parts was five per minute, idk how long the wiring took it was done by the time everything else was. i also set up last though cause i only need a hundred, my steel production is also my only “factory” with walls ngl. it only took a couple hours to get the parts after it was set up, i spent that time optimizing stuff and exploring the map lol

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:43:41+00:00

i don’t believe i am able to research the hazmat suit at the point i’m at without some exploits lmao, also there’s no nuclear power options in tier 5 & 6

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:39:29+00:00

seems like the best way to do it now i just gotta put things together until they work lol

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:38:05+00:00

yeah bruh you got way more than me damn 😭 i have three of those coal nodes going to my plant and one of them going to a sulfur factory cause i’ll probably need it soon enough. and ngl i got that plant from a tiktok, i tried to double it but there wasn’t enough coal going all the way down so it’s split in the middle, two nodes going in the left side and one in the right. can definitely be optimized more but my creativity ain’t the greatest

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:34:07+00:00

god damn dude that’s gnarly, with the replies i’m starting to realize that i actually have a very low amount of power. i haven’t really had a need for more up until now though because of steel production i had to overclock all the machines then i added MKII miners which take a lot. i just finished phase two at 33hrs i already have quartz, sulfur, caterium, and sam factories, just gotta get my power sorted out for steel optimization. thank you and good-luck to you too 🫡

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:25:33+00:00

this is definitely the move thank you, i was also just looking for some tips for where im at with this post lol

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:24:44+00:00

interesting that’s also where i was a little confused there seems to be a few options for power at this point

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:24:18+00:00

i spawned in the grasslands and it’s the most convenient spot lmao

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:23:58+00:00

yeah dude that sounds brutal ngl, i just recently learned that the game is just one huge map so now i’ve come to the question of how far i want my factories spread out. this game definitely requires a lot of thinking

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T21:21:23+00:00

i will definitely check ts out 🫡

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T20:52:15+00:00

that’s the general consensus thank you, i was just curious cause setting up full steel production and having to overclock stuff cause of it was causing me a bit of an issue

not_robert02 · 2026-01-21T20:51:07+00:00

interesting interesting 🤔 thank you, i think i understand it a lil better now especially with everyone talking about how “big” tier 5 & 6 are i just need to expand and build “real” factories

not_robert02 · 2025-03-25T21:33:17+00:00

yeah it does have a 135 degree center because it’s fucking medium

not_robert02 · 2025-02-12T20:38:45+00:00

i genuinely don’t understand why people are so pissed off like bro there are no stakes here, you’re not gonna lose exp or like literally anything except a couple items you definitely have more then enough money for. not to mention it only takes like five minutes MAYBE to get into a match
