Silica

Finally getting into electricity but man, those electronics are expensive! I ended up building on the water in G15 on Olympus...my 2nd base. Im finding that silica isnt particularly plentiful in that area but i need a LOT. Any ideas where i might find a better supply?

Material processor

What do I need to do to unlock it?

Edit : sorry, guys. I didn't realize I just needed another point to open it. I thought there was something else I needed to open first. Thanks for your help!!

Unclaimed animals

How do you get them to go away? I've got a few horses that weren't very good at all and they're seriously gorging the food! Freaking moochers just won't go away!! Lol

Just finished!

My first big building grind! Still a ways to go but the main part is done! Im kinda proud of it.

Edit : if I take the bracing away, will the roof collapse? I used it while building because the tiles were turning yellow or breaking. Maybe a central pole? (Yes...the roof collapsed)

Starting over

Made it to level 12 before realizing i did a few things wrong. I spent points where I shouldn't have yet. Needed those points for something else. I'm learning so its no big deal. For the pros... How many times did you start over before you actually got a a scenario you liked?

Caves

A. How do you find them? Do you just luck upon it? B. How do you mark things on the map? I tried to figure this out on my own but noluck.

Edit : im only level 11 so I don't think I can build beacons yet but i need iron ore already. Isn't the caves the only place to find that?

Taming horses

I've had two of them for about an hour. And my taming is still 0% is there something I should be doing other than feeding them? Or does it just take a really long time to actually get them tamed?

Brand new

This game is tough! Just simply trying to figure out how to make the opening for a wood doorway. I made the door but I can’t find anywhere for the opening of the doorway.

Prime start

I put my carbs back in and primed the system and had a leak. Looks like my prime start on carb 3 isnt seating correctly. Is this too loose? Do I need to buy another one? This little piece is $200 bucks! Ugh! The top one seems fine, but the bottom one won't see correctly. It seems.

Something to ponder

I just rebuilt my carbs last year. This year I had to turn around and completely clean them again. I thought I was doing the right thing by running ethanol free and it’s still the right thing. When getting your ethanol free for your boats make sure the pump you get the fuel from is a dedicated pump only to ethanol free. The pump I’ve been getting from is not dedicated therefore it has ethanol fuelin the lines and it has to pump that through first before it gets to the ethanol free. I think this is why I was showing yellow in my carbs because I was actually pumping about a gallon probably of ethanol fuel in before the ethanol free. I will no longer be buying from this non-dedicated pump instead I will be seeking out a pump that is strictly ethanol free. 3 out of 4 primary jets were completely clogged and the 4th wasn’t far behind.

Found a tell tale...is this a clue?

Just saw this morning, and i've never seen this before. Could this be a clue to what's wrong with my engine?

They were just barely off...

Is barely off enough to make a big difference? I've got them all inline now and going to test it at the river in a little bit. We will see... Two months later, still chasing the same problem! Ugh

Primer bulb isn't getting hard

I can hear the fuel flowing, but i'm not seeing any leaks anywhere. I'm not smelling fuel other than what i've already spilled. Trying to figure this out please help! Fuel line and primer bulb are brand new

Edit : fixed!! Thanks again, everyone I just had to prime the bulb! Thanks again!!

She's gone 😢

Over sixteen years, i've had that car and I just watched her drive out of the driveway. I do feel good knowing it's going to a good family with a mechanic. Also, it's not going to be heavily modded. Still doesn't change the fact that i'm going to miss her. It wasn't fair to just let her sit and rot!

Just want to be sure about this

If i have 3/8 fuel line...does that mean i need a 3/8 primer bulb? I may have found the problem with my boat today. My primer bulb pumped up but then released. Pumped it up again and it did the same thing. It ran but i still had the surge and push push. Still stopped at 4500 rpm and then a huge surge up to 5000. If that fuel line is pulling air wouldn't it explain these issues?

Still just can't figure this out

Per a few mechanic, friends of mine, I put two cans of marine seafoam in my tank and ran the absolute stew out of my boat the other day. I think I drove a total of twenty three miles straight. Ran the motor as hot as I possibly could and kept running on full throttle. She idols beautifully, but when i'm trying to get on plane, she starts bogging down around 4000-4500 rpm. She WAS staying there for about two minutes before heading up to 5000. That actually improved. But I still have the bog and the ever so slight push push...push push. Fuel filter is clean, spark plugs are new, getting spark on all four cylinders, compression is good, carbs we're rebuilt last february, fuel plump was replaced last february, coils were replaced last february, maintenance has been kept up 100%. Vacuum lines have been checked and are strong, fuel lines are all brand new, as well. I really don't want to go through the job of tearing those carburaders down again.But I guess if I have to I will. Also I have ran nothing but ethanol free in this boat, since i've had it.
