I dont know if this is a new feature or something but if they don't work try outputting 4 power from the branch. Small edit, you can add 8 more planter boxes because 1 sprinkler can afford a 2x2 area. So you could expand the base into a 4x2 100k views 💀
@@witcherai3919no because theoretically you’re using the same amount of sprinklers. Instead of using the two sprinklers for the 2X2 you can use one for the 2X2 and it will still be sustainable. So you could use that other sprinkler for another 2X2
15 doesn't divide by four evenly, so there's 3ml wasted water from the sprinklers in this set up. Strongly consider slightly expanding this to two floors of 2x3 planter boxes. You can still get the job done with 2 sprinklers and two ceiling lights for each floor. With fresh water, you'd only need one water pump, but the two from this video would be enough for a purifier set up. Well done.
To everyone who is reading this now, facepunch updated rust so that there's no water waste with sprinklers. So this farm will have maximized water efficency 👍
I mean the devision system made sense. Split 15 by 4, you will get 3,.. the decimals are the water that goes to waste because rust won't round the decimals up because that would create water from nothing basically. Instead what they've done is just include the decimals so now the sprinklers will give exactly 15/4 or 15/(amount of planters)@@randyjackson776
I built it to see cost, approximately: 13,000 Stone 6,000 Wood 4,500 Metal Fragments 20 HQM (not including tools) 14 Gears 20 Cloth 4 Tech Trash 16 Tarp Upkeep should be around: 1,700 Stone 350 Metal Fragments I also see a flaw in the design as there is no need for the switch, the power can go from the power to the first Electrical Branch, and then add another branch to connect your 2 ceiling lights. Also, 4 sprinklers is Overkill, only 2 are needed to get 3ml of water per 10 seconds, which is a liveable amount of water for any crop despite the genetics.
Switch and sprinklers personal preference. You might want to turn all the electricity off in random scenarios. Since it can afford 4 sprinklers i like to use them because you fill up the planters faster so if you don’t want to keep your sprinklers on 24/7 you can fill them up faster and then turn them off for a while.
Glad I chose ptb before trying to build this the 2 triangles at the start have been throwing me off so much. Thank you vry much for a simplified rundown on electricity too extremely helpful.
This farm base is great, self sufficient and amazing. One thing you can do is add a boat room on the backside next to the wall all the electrical stuff is ran on and boom you can use it for rigs and cargo as well 👍🏽
Is there any way to increase water output from the purifier? It's giving me 12, but I wanted to have 4 sprinklers on each level. (My pumpkins can't seem to grow with only 2)
Sorry for the late response. For some reason I don't get notified about these comments. If you're still wondering the answer is no. You'd need more water pumps/purifiers. I think teaguytom / sigbog has some good tutorials related to that.@@riomouris4767
Neat base layout, i like to have an extra water barrel somewhere because the purifier doesnt provide much of a buffer when you run a larger operation. Did you ever run low on water with this setup?
No, this setup will always supply water so you can have it running 24/7. I intentionally designed it like this. And ofcourse you could expand say a third floor but then you wouldn’t have an endless supply of water.
people forget how broken the bucket is, i used to work so much to make a water cool system, then i realized build near a river get a bucket and ur planterboxes are filled with water within seconds
You can up it a notch and get water jugs, find them or buy them from bandit/outpost for like 5 scrap. 5000 ML of water in 1 go. So fill a planter in 2 runs.
you most likely wired the bottom ones before you wired the top ones. if you look in the video you'll see i noted it. Water can't go up without a pump that's why you have to wire the top ones first so it will flow down.
Oh yeah I forgot about that. It shouldn’t cost more than a normal 2x2 which is 2 stories tall. So about 8-10k stone i would guess. But yeah I should of checked
I got rlly into farm bases in rust And i will today and FW try this one out already trained the order in creative But i dont know if i should use the windows since idk if people will raid my farm if they can see all the cloth They just need to destroy one stone wall and have already 4 large boxes. Ty for the design im hyped to test it out today.
It can be tricky if youre looking at it at certain angles. Try changing your lookatradius or replacing the branch somewhere else. Otherwise just follow the steps in the video and it should work👍
Not enough power. Make sure you connect all solar panels to the battery. It should be enough with like 2 solar panels tbh. You always gotta make sure the power in to the battery is greater than the power usage of the battery. And if u use solar panels remember they don’t work @ night
@@fishermorrison3621no silly, that’s the point of the battery. The battery charges during the day, so at night the power can be distributed. once its day, the battery recharges
Does it not exist? It can be because of lookatradious that its hard to see the input at certain angles. Try repositioning yourself or change lookatradius in f1 console with this command: client.lookatradius Default is around client.lookatradius 0.15 And you can try lowering it for a more precise lookatradius or highering it for a more wide range of lookatradius.
i mean i like the windows but you can build it without them I guess. Otherwise some people might think that it's a normal base and then it looks like a cheap 2x2 to raid because there's no honeycomb.
Sounds very weird and like a bug. try rewiring sprinklers/replacing them. If it doesn't work try building it on a sandbox server and try it out there because it should work to 100%
Not familiar with heaters in farms but try placing them on the surrounding walls I don't know if 1 heater will cover all 4 planters however just try it out and you'll see if plants get more heat happiness. And power should still be enough for 2-4 more heaters.
You can always have it on but some plants don't like too much water. I think if you have full planters with 9000ml of water with god hemp/berry clones their happiness will reach a maximum of ~75% (something like that)
only thing im doing different is ill use the water pump side as my jump up so the tc has more doors in the way also if you put your water supply higher then the sprinklers then you dont need to power the fluid switch. the power from the water pump can pump to the purifier on the roof then you can flow that back to sprinklers
Means they don't get enough power.. Did you face solar panels facing the right direction. And did you wire them up all together to the battery using a combiner? Redo wiring for your battery
It doesn't hold water? What do you mean by that? I'll just write the wiring here to make sure you did it correctly. Water pump 2x -> combiner -> input of water purifier. the water purifier needs power to run aswell. Water should be taken in the purifier and converted to normal water which you'll see in the right barrel.
If you've done everything i've done it should be working :p If it says requires pump your pump is probably not on / does not have power. Your fluid switch acts as a pump therefor it needs power to function. And wire top sprinklers first, then bottom ones.@@kylebrahhh7705

I’m not sure how the purifier gets full when the power is turned off? Could be console bug. Just rewatch what i did and do it step by step, if you follow exactly what i did it should work. I didnt cut anything out so go back and redo
@@Gilbert96 I did last night lol. I went back and the water isn’t being purified it’s going into the first tank but not the second. Idek I think it just might be a bug bc I did everything step by step.
1 or 2 reasons. 1. The water level fluctuates and it might be too shallow at one point. 2. You don't place them correctly. It can be tricky placing them and you need to do it from certain angles. However it's most likely n1 reason.
Why windows? Are you aware they can actually slow down growth? If there is sunlight hitting a planter the game will give it a light rating based on the sun even if there is an electrical light too. This means the electrical light source only takes over when the sun is completely down. During sunrise and set you will have less than 100%. Is is certainly a bug, but I doubt it will be fixed anytime soon.
@@Gilbert96 I follow along just fine, water and electricity are very complex in Rust. Explanations go a long way and I've found that not many people provide any explanation. It's much harder for people who don't know how to do it at all to learn.
Water and electricity isn't complex unless you have 0 idea how it works irl.. Pump provides water, solar panel provides electricity, branches branch out power etc. Output goes to input.

Thanks bro I’ve been so lazy to get into it because I thought it was hard but you made it easy and it’s fun
Wow really glad to hear. I'm happy I helped!
I built it to see cost, approximately:

6,000 Wood
4,500 Metal Fragments
20 HQM (not including tools)
14 Gears
20 Cloth
4 Tech Trash

Good vid tks mate, the material cost would be a nice to have yes at the beginning of the vid or in the description

Yes you can honeycomb it
What do I need to have the branches set up.
electricity
Followed your guide correctly but instead I’m using windmill and large battery and still don’t have enough power apparently idk why
follow all your wiring with a wiring tool and see where the power ends. You need to troubleshoot it somehow.

smart and good ideas

No you only need the default of 2 power to power 2 ceiling lights. 1 for each.
@@Gilbert96 But ceiling lights are 2 power each... When the branch is on 2, only 1 works, switch it to 4, the 2nd comes on.
