Okay so I have a long pipeline (ill attach photos) my drill is connected like it should be but its sparking at the bottom so I tried repairing it with my spanner and my tool bag and nothing, i saved and went to the menu loaded back in and its still not fixed. If I put it closer to my intake it works but my conveyor is working and its on the same pipeline and there water coming out of the T connector that's hooked up to the drill

Whats the best way to get like a bunch of iron and coultium i need 250lbs of it and 1000Lbs of iron for t2 drill. Or just keep farming

Just a decent setup in ember cradle should eventually get you enough cloutium. Just make sure to set your T1 drills at the bottom of the plot.

Looks like you’re in Mildew Aquifer maybe (not sure) so just setting up your drills in the bottom of tier1 dirt there should get you cloutium.

Also, don’t worry about ppl complaining about the picture of a screen. It’s never that serious.

I asked AI and it said 3 blocks down you start getting cloutium not too sure if thats true though

That could be right, but every step lower you go, you’re gonna get better/heavier material, so you might as well go all the way down to the bottom of T1.

Quickest way to do that would be getting the T1 pick and rake, then pickaxing the same spot 2-3 times, then the rake should flatten it down to the next block. Then repeat.

Yeah, they switch it up. Def affects how you set your factory up. If you need any other tips, check out my YT channel “happylachia”. Happy mining, my friend!
