This guide was a lot easier to follow than the first in the series. Very clear and no skipped steps. I hope you consider updating the first two episodes to fit this same, clear format. Cheers
Thanks! I put a lot of work into this one... I was meant to finish it three days ago but felt that the series really did need that clarity. I will renovate the first two episodes once the website goes live but for the time being will focus on other clear layout content! Thanks for being honest about your thoughts and I'm glad you found this one much easier to understand! :)
Hey TotalXclipse, really like your vids. But there is one question that i have, what about an build for these damn Rotors? This guys are killing me and i can´t sort it out for some reason. That would be so great. Thanks and keep up with that good stuff.
@@chaosakazero no I meant "when does the steel pipe video come out?". Not when did the steel pipes themselves come out lol. But thx for the fun fact lol
@@Wasp20 :D I was along the same lines as Kevin... I'm planning on doing a stator guide this week, we'll be using steel pipes for that so, probably next week. Although what would you prefer a steel pipe layout seperate. Or a steel pipe and stator factory layout?
What’s a good way to get 270 iron when I only have mk2’s but can over clock up to 150 per minute. Should I underclock them a little or should I divide some of the ore out and add what I need back in some how. If the second option please give recommendations how.
So if all the foundries need 450 coal per minute, how are we meant to get that there using mk3 belts in 1 belt? I’m not using the manifold design, just using a 1 to 10 splitter design I found you made in one of your old video guides. Great work btw.
I use two belts in this video, one either side of the factory and you'll need to do the same. As for the split I'm not sure off the top Of my head, as you'll have a surplus of items :/ Sorry I'm not much help, I am hoping to eventually cover these guides as load balancers eventually as well but it's all a lot of work :D
Hey, what do you suggest I do if I already have a factory of 270 steel ingots per minute in place? Can I still go with this build with the exception of the steel ingot part or will it be a totally different setup?
what was he doing at about 8:26 to reset the splitters it seems like it would come in handy instead of me having to restack the splitters like I usually do
did they change the recipe since this video or did you just bugger your math ? as of right now it says 12 steel beams per 2/min. so if 2 per minute is 12 beams 10 per minute would be 60 beams (12 times 5) (which is only 6 foundries and 4 constructors) not the 120 you do.
What I'm having trouble understanding is your steel bus. Why underclock only the first two if both mirrored steel bus's are not connected? You said in the beginning; 2 running at 33% and 10 running at 100% What am I missing here?
because they're mirrored and not connected each side will need 5 at 100% and a single one at 33% which is a total in the build of 10 at 100% clockspeed and 2 at 33% but you could underclock all the foundries to 88.3% it's whatevers best for you. I just find it easier to underclock 2 rather than 12 :)
@@vorisek921 You made me doubt myself then. :D Each foundry needs 45 of each item, and each row has 6 foundries so thats 270 items per minute (so a fully saturated MK3 belt) you need two for each manifold, one for Iron ore and the other for coal. :)
The first merger of the line isn't necessary. as you're going to place that input in the back of the next merger. However if you prefer to have all foundries followed by mergers, you can.

They really should add the ability to mirror structures, such as the foundry, so the input / output isn't offset.
I totally agree with you!
here i am crafting these at the workbench XD
Same lol
hey, any chance of adding pictures for this to you website? sometimes its easier to have that to reference aswel :)
Hey TotalXclipse,
really like your vids. But there is one question that i have, what about an build for these damn Rotors?
This guys are killing me and i can´t sort it out for some reason.
That would be so great.
Thanks and keep up with that good stuff.
Hey you're in luck! I'm hoping to do them this week! ;)
@@TotalXclipse Ohh that´s great news. I´ve done them for now but only cause i got the alternate screw receipe. I´m looking forward to it :)
Screws! Oh the screws! AAAHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhh...
i just want to say one thing I liked this video a little but now that it is done gg keep on the good work!
Thanks! I'm hoping to keep the channel developing and growing, so more content will be coming soon! :)
Very nice modular building!
I think I will love the bid and now I watch it😊
Yes! This is exactly what I need to do today! When do steel pipes come out?
I think Summer 2019

@@TotalXclipse both I guess. Because if there's not much use to there only being the one
@@Wasp20 Well I'll do a stator layout then including the pipes and then later on I'll do a solo pipe factory.

how much coal and iron do we need as input, I'm not sure if you said he or not
Hey, what do you suggest I do if I already have a factory of 270 steel ingots per minute in place? Can I still go with this build with the exception of the steel ingot part or will it be a totally different setup?
If you run it through a manifold, if you have any excess it should be fine to be syphoned off to storage, but yeh, it'll be fine :)
what was he doing at about 8:26 to reset the splitters it seems like it would come in handy instead of me having to restack the splitters like I usually do
That's a bug - sometimes it double placed a merger or splitter so you need to delete the merger thats on top of it so you can connect the conveyors up
did they change the recipe since this video or did you just bugger your math ? as of right now it says 12 steel beams per 2/min. so if 2 per minute is 12 beams 10 per minute would be 60 beams (12 times 5) (which is only 6 foundries and 4 constructors) not the 120 you do.
yeah.. you would need about 400~ coal and iron per minute into this setup if you wanted this to work

OHHHHHH "facepalm" i was underclocking the first 2 as in the first 2 you place... oh dear. Thanks for the clear up.
@@Saothz Ahhh that would make sense as to why you'd have a problem, sorry i wasn't more clear!
this would need 480 coal and iron right?
Exactly :)
Ok, thanks
I know i need to automate the versitile but do I need to automate the smart platings?
10 foundries? So you need what? 5 pure coal and iron nodes to get this running?
I think two of the foundries are underclocked so just under
lol everyone saying its a dumb video when it came out over 2 years ago and the game is in EA.. shits gonna change xD
What do you mean by a manifold?
I just saw this message - if you're not sure what one is it's a line of items that splits off to feed other items / the overflow method.
This video is confusing the murgers after the foundry
hey how do u manage having enough input in the foundries ?
I use two MK3 belt buses for iron and Coal, alternately bring the items to the factory on a MK4 then split them between the two conveyors :)
@@TotalXclipse aren't u short on transport then? These 2 belts give 540?

OMG CAN YOU EXPLAIN IT MORE AND WHY YOU SKIPPED THE ONE MERGER

Hahaha
The Discord link is invalid
Again? This happened last week, I'll sort it out now. thanks!
discord.gg/dqwkgqz That should be the valid one from now on :)
nvm it was good sorry
I hope that means I solved the issues for you in the end :)
This is so hard to follow…
doesnt work i did literally everything
Are you still having problems with it?
you litterlay never told use where to place the other foundries!!!!
I place them at the end of the video as it mirrors the initial build :)
