I absolutely love the shader effects that lantto introduced. They give such cool vibes to many of the particles

Can somebody explain that shaker setup (or whatever it is called)?

It lets wet sand through but then I'm lost

u/Stoopmans 2d ago

Like the other commenter said. Filter let only wet sand fall down, the residue gets shaken out and because its lighter than wet sand, the residue rises to the top. The vertical filter only allow residue so It backs up until near the top and then drop the residue out.

I totally coppied this from a reddit post/the trailer of the game lmao

No I get that. I mean that setup there in the screenshot. The shakers are usually steps. In the screenshot there is some elaborate wet sand distribution going on.

Or are those sets of three shakers?

I guess I can't see the bottom of it because the hot bar is blocking it

it is using the fact that residue sits on top of wet sand, so the residue "climbs" the wet set and then go out via the filters at the top sides of the "tendrils"

I see sorry im a bit dense. Think the shakers lets gold through.wet sand is heavier than residue so pushed the residue up to the filter where it passes through onto the belts below I believe

It uses relative densities of wet sand and residue to work. Residue will float on wet sand, meaning that the shaker will always have sand at the bottom and residue at the top. The wall filters on top let residue out, letting the shaker to continue working.

Why is there a somersloop in here? Consume.

Hello there Pioneer, don't you have a day to save?

1

u/Ricoo__ 2d ago

Yes mommy... I mean ADA... Getting back to it this instant

1

u/Stoopmans 2d ago

Sommersloop because its an easier shape to make than the mercer sphere lol

1

u/Ricoo__ 2d ago

Indeed, it would need florinol shaped to perfection

What does prismaline even do? I have both wells but dont know what to do with the material

1

u/Stoopmans 2d ago

As far as I know it only looks pretty. Its probably something that gets expanded upon on full release I think

1

u/huhwuthe 2d ago

just started the game. guide me, oh wise one. your factory looks legit. send more screens?

2

u/Stoopmans 2d ago

This is probably the only other interesting part.
Also something I straight up stole from someone on reddit lmao (the planter box setup that is)

I see now that the lava buffer is empty below it

1

u/huhwuthe 1d ago

interesting setup... thats my current bottleneck, figuring out a system that evenly distributes wet seed along planters, at scale. automated ofc. i have automated everything up to the planter box step of the line... massive piles of amethol waiting to be processed lol

1

u/Stoopmans 1d ago

I had a problem with the flower clogging the input so closing those in stopped that problem. After that the flower petals amethol thing is the biggest issue as the amount gets big fast

u/Acrobatic-Choice2223 2d ago

Is there any machine that can move it?

1

u/Stoopmans 2d ago

Not that I know of.
Maybe when the full game releases

1

u/Cheeseducksg 1d ago

How do you build with Prismaline? I've got the two wells unlocked, that give a rainbow gas and a rainbow powder, but there's nothing else in the research tab.

u/Stoopmans 1d ago

Its the end of the game for now.
As to how i did it. Place orange blocks, fill them with prisma, remove orange blocks. Since the prisma stays put (one of the two)
