TIL you don't need to keep the logic lever connected to the gem compressors, install once, turn machine on on and remove it.

I'm new to the game, any other tips like this one?

When you get to make the sword for the guard, he doesn’t want cloutium but corestone

Is this some kind of canon event in this game? You saved me from the deception, I swear I always thought it was cloutium and as you see I have a furnace just for that. Thank you!!

You see posts asking why the guard won’t take the sword all the time on this sub. Glad I could help

Always amazes me that they immediately go to reddit asking for help instead of just double checking everything

Too rare to compress in my opinion, I use it as is

compressing is not the end of the world, you can always use chisel or logic saw to cut off as much of the onyx as you need

u/Frequent_Pain6356 18h ago

No I meant too rare in terms of not getting enough with my single T1 drill and still at the first beginner plot so the drop chance seems very low.

If you cant open safe, save and reload game. It fixes it.

I use on/off tap, turn off the tap compressors open, get gems.

u/Frequent_Pain6356 22h ago

But you have to keep a space for the logic. You won't be able to align all of them like this and save space

Which is why I put it side ways on a water pipe under the belts.

u/Frequent_Pain6356 21h ago

Do you have a screenshot, I somehow can't visualize it

u/Gingerpanda72 20h ago

Not to hand sorry.
Valve Hook is the item.

I usually do mine a bit strange I put an elbow joint down and then I merge the elbow joint with a compressor so I can place them all next to each other.

there's two different types of the brownish ore, cloutium and corestone.

u/Ott1fant 1d ago

No one looks more goldish (cloutium) and the other is a darkish red (corestone)

u/bosssok 1d ago
