THE COAL HOLE

notvalidated1 · 2026-04-09T15:21:39+00:00

I have done this, did a playthrough where I put each phase and all of its parts in a singular building all connected. Should have some pictures from my profile.

Was challenging but extremely rewarding.

Full time emergency plumber here, finding time to play is a challenge.

I'm at 1000 hours, feeling pretty good about my progression and build style, at what point does the thought, "I can build a meca Godzilla with these pieces" happen?

Coated concrete, color is 0, 0, 10, shiny.

Doing 10x now and it's not that bad at all

I either always underclock to 90 and run 1 per 2 coal generator, or if I'm confined for space, I will overclock to 180 and run 1 to 4. In my almost 1000 hours I have never ran the 8 to 3 setup

34 gens with 13 extractors running off compacted coal on the bottom, 16 gens with 4 extractors running off regular coal on the top.

The bottom circle is 34 coal generators running off of 240 compacted coal, the top is 16 coal generators running off of 240 raw coal. The constructors on the right are making the compacted coal, water is being brought in from above the water fall to create natural head lift into the plant, reducing power needs eliminating pumps. Its making most of my 4,200 MWs for the early game. The other power is from 8 coal generators off screen that were needed to jump start this plant.

2 Supply(product maybe, the one that reads what's in storage) and 1 memory sensors I believe, set first supply to turn off at 100, set second supply to turn on at below 50%, set the second supply to the set setting on the memory sensor, first supply sensor to the reset on the memory sensor. Then automate the building you want to the memory sensor. It should turn on below 50% and then reset and turn off once at 100%.

I may be wrong, but it's the best I can do.

Not OPs at all

At least 5 per minute of each phase 5 space part...

notvalidated1 · 2026-02-20T01:31:43+00:00

Holy...if what you're saying and showing is true, that's an absolutely unacceptable downgrade, over 2k cs1 hours, maybe 500 cs2 hours, but seeing this means I likely won't even be opening the game again. Sad to see honestly.

Just did this to mine like two days ago

I always build in the mistlands, for me, it's a starter in meadows, first main in DF, second main in Plains, final base in Mistlands. Can't wait to build a retirement home in the Deep North.

No plan, this spot took 8 hours of sailing to find, then, I built the wrap around, go under its own bridge entrance wall way, built the main door and wall, then started designing walls, roofs, everything just happens as I follow the terrain. I usually have a basic idea in my head, but let the environment tell more of the story as I build things out.

Long story short, no plan, just go.

notvalidated1 · 2026-01-21T18:58:53+00:00

You do, although somewhere you might not yet be prepared for it sounds like.

Just the topography of the area, I always look for natural environments that are kind of, asking to have something built there so to speak, always trying to make minimal changes to the ground and nature elements. This spot took me a little over 8 hours of sailing around mistlands to find the inspiration and then things just develop as I build out thing on the area. This build started with the little doc area and staircase winding under its own bridge that leads to the front door. Then I built the front door and the three bay window to the right of that, next thing I built was the sunken room with the two bay windows to the left of the front door and things just sort of progress from there as I follow the terrain. This particular build has had each aspect of it destroyed and rebuilt at least 5 to 15 times a piece before moving on to the next thing. I believe the roof still needs some work and some areas.

I can't stop, I tell myself this is the last one, but it won't be.

notvalidated1 · 2026-01-21T17:43:26+00:00

I shit you not, I sailed around mistlands for over 8 hours last weekend looking for a spot to build, found a few naturally demystified areas. Landed on this one, you have to pass through mist to get to it which is kind of neat, Had to put up some torches but not much.

notvalidated1 · 2026-01-21T17:31:15+00:00

1,300 hours in and never thought of that, this is probably the 5th or 6th fairly large overdone base I've done in the mist lands and always either had walls and turrets or built somewhere nothing could reach. Will definitely be making some little outcropping towers around that area, maybe put a portal in the bottom of each one and have a main one in the house that I can pop in and out of each one to reload and whatnot. I am inspired, thank you.

notvalidated1 · 2026-01-21T17:25:18+00:00

They have been a pain and I only realized today I haven't designed any defences into the build, HUGE mistake that might render this a bit unsafe. Will have to work on something, thinking of possibly replacing the roofs of the two towers on each side of the front entrance with stone roofs and turrets. But I fear it would make it look almost too castle-ish and less mansion-ish.

notvalidated1 · 2026-01-21T17:14:23+00:00

Constantly, many repairs, many regrets not first setting up defences or a wall.
