Would you consider sky-highways cheating?

It's super easy to have them and just drive the explorer faster to reach my outer outposts of quartz and sulfur, and to explore and pick up mercer spheres and hard drives, but I feel like I'm cheating a lot by doing so lol

I'm officially locked in for the mid game

I realized that power drain was going to exponentially climb. And 3,000 Watts was not going to be enough. I'm almost done unlocking nuclear power but I know I won't be able to get that started for a while so say hello to my generator farm. 64 generators in total. Still need to do some tweaks but now I have 16 megawatts.

But this still is my first playthrough and I'm learning optimization do you have any suggestions I would appreciate it but she seems to be working pretty efficiently. Also I was sleeping on valves. Those things are pretty sweet.

New Player Tips

I just started my first play through, I’m loving the game I’m just a little lost. I began watching a new player tutorial but found myself copying everything from the video and not learning as much. Do you take builds/blueprints for factory’s, and will doing so be “cheating” ? Any tips for learning the game as a new player?

Newbie Here.

So, I started my very first play through a little over 150 hours ago. I’ve gotten to phase four, and I’ve wanted to upgrade my plastic and rubber production for a while. I’ve found that piping just eludes me. I decided I’d start with just one 600 oil pipe in a manifold system feeding 20 plastic refineries. Math isn’t hard, 600/30 =20, but no matter what I do I can’t for the life of me get all the machines running smoothly. I’ve seen videos and watched tutorials of piping, and I know about the sloshing mechanic. I’ve waited for the machines to back up, installed valves for direction flow control, and I’ve got buffers at the start of my manifolds. And yet it seems I’ve got 2 or three machines at the end of the manifold that refuse to get enough oil. Any tips?

New player here need a helping question answered

I just started playing yesterday morning and I have no idea how to automate things nor how power lines work even (and I'm good at Redstone stuff in Minecraft) I have (somehow?!) gotten Biomass Fuel Tanks up and running but no conveyor belts or anything else like that aside from portable miners and I have power slugs blue some pure nodes of Iron and Limestone located on the map and such O just would like to stop the manual grind at least for a bit and properly start exploring... Btw I play on Xbox Series X

Is there a way to figure out how exactly to curve the road to get in between these three points or do I have to just do trial and error?

Conveyor lifts just stop working randomly

Not sure if this is a bug or not that is just presenting itself but I have a handful of conveyor lifts that just stop working periodically. I've rebuilt them over and over, and everything connected to them and around them and they always stop working after a few minutes. Everything worked basically fine until today.

Anyone else experiencing this? Suggestions?

I never had issues with transports until this update...

Can someone explain to me why my truck keeps stopping right here after unloading? Its got more than enough space, fuel, and a fully connected route. I have to manually move it a few feet then enable autopilot again for it to continue. The hassle ive gone through just trying to set up routes for vehicles now is enough to make me put the game down for awhile.

I unlocked infused uranium cells just after I finished building my 1200 uranium processing plant

As the title says, after finishing my uranium processing plant while I was waiting for the system to run at full efficiency, I found an hard drive which contained the alt recipe.

I was so proud of my plant, it was the first time I tried harnessing fluids correctly, building water towers and valves in the correct way.

As I always have problems with fluid byproducts flooding the system, shoul I rebuild with the new recipe or should I leave as is?

I left the game running for 10 hours and the numbers stabilised without sulfuric acid flooding my machines.

I finally did it :D

I finally beat the game and achieved the golden nut on my second playthrough. 194 hours on the save.

What a journey, wasn’t expecting phase 5 to be as easy as it was.

Phase 4 makes or breaks or men.. lol.

Was really happy to get this wrapped in time for AC resynced and the alters dlc, but all I feel like I want to do now is to start a new save.

I’m so so so tempted to do a pure node world to build my ‘master’ world so to speak.

How do you guys process this feeling?

Half way point Phase 4

As we rap up our second main building phase 4 is finally in motion!

Currently 3 others play besides me we have gotten all late game items depo to the cloud.

We got lazy and started shipping everything to the same area in one building we have 4x780 lines. 3 of the are iron and 1 is copper. its 8 stories tall making most things.

Then the biggest building is our oil machine making rubber and plastic ofc aswell as rocket fuel to give us our main grid before nuclear.

There's alot of other small factorys but this is what was picture worthy.

TIL: You can get power slugs from lizzard doggos.

I was hoping they would bring me the non renewable resources. Now I just have to wait and see if they bring me any sloops.
