Building The Glitchwalker EXPRESS ! Astroneer Glitchwalker DLC [E5]

[@thewrenchreviews9986]

Laterite is a soil or rock that is rich in iron and aluminum, and is often found in tropical and subtropical regions

[@Achilds01]

lol I just coppied that exact thing from Wikipedia too :p No need to post it now then :P

[@xXRobinHood87Xx]

There is a mobile D-Cypher that you can put next to Ruby.... but nice train anyway! Good to know there is no need for an actual trainstation

[@Bigrignohio]

Bauxite is an ore. Laterite is an aluminum rich dirt.

[@catgirl_works]

To add to this, most of the bauxite mined in the world is classified as lateritic bauxite (a little under 90%). The rest is classified as karstic bauxite (around 10%) or tikhvinic bauxite (less than 1%)

[@chronic7482]

You can put two solar/ small wind turbines on each rail post. It is also capable of running vertically and automatically clears voxels and objects that interfere with the track.

[@agwing1306]

Not just vertically but sideways and upside down - I made an awesome rollercoaster ride with it! 😁

[@OddlyIncredible]

With a rail network, you can create a giant power grid that can ring the whole planet - just stick a couple turbines and solar panels on each rail post.

[@redactedusernameconfirmed]

The trains are so good for the gaint purple power things, both in and out of glitchwalkers, I live them so much

[@holydiver09]

For bytes I just took a large platform with a medium storage, a ruby, and a research station in to the storm. Added 4 small wind turbines and about 90 minutes later had 40 thousand + bytes

[@Bicketybam68]

Cool, while I've got the bytes using another method, that works well too.

[@flash1259]

I bought Glitchwalker as soon as it was available and haven't played it yet. I need to get started. From watching your and other videos I think I'd like it.

[@theprocraftinator9814]

From laterite wiki Laterite is a soil type rich in iron and aluminium and is commonly considered to have formed in hot and wet tropical areas. Nearly all laterites are of rusty-red

[@Charles-7]

Laterite is a type of dirt rich in aluminum and much of the elements in this game is much like how it looks in our own world.

[@Tacjester96]

The green circle on the bottom of the rail post is a count down to when it will show up

[@InternetGravedigger]

Run your train line into the storm, then build a wind power station and hook it up to the train post. 22:28 Z1 finally seeing the clay right next to the highway he built...

[@0Subject0]

Laterite is a red, porous, clay-like soil that is rich in iron and aluminum: Appearance: Laterite is typically rusty-red in color due to its high iron oxide content. It can also be yellowish or brown, and when freshly broken, it is usually lighter in color. Composition: Laterite is made up of aluminum, silicon, and iron oxides, as well as crystalline phases like quartz, kaolinite, and hematite. Formation: Laterite is a residual product of rock decay that forms in hot, wet tropical areas. It is created when silica-rich components are leached out of the rock, leaving behind aluminum and iron hydroxides. Properties: Laterite is soft when freshly quarried, but hardens quickly when exposed to wet and dry conditions. This self-cementing property makes it resistant to weathering and suitable for use as a building brick. Uses: Laterite has been used as an iron ore and, in Cuba, as a source of nickel. Other names: Laterite is also known as latosol.

[@konradolschanowsky6401]

laterite and bauxite are both ore containing aluminum bauxite high a high concentration of aluminum compared to laterite which has a higher concentration of silicate and iron respectively

[@Achilds01]

Some other interesting facts I found for you all. "Aluminium is the most abundant metal in the Earth’s crust (8.1%) but is rarely found uncombined in nature. It is usually found in minerals such as bauxite and cryolite. These minerals are aluminium silicates. Most commercially produced aluminium is extracted by the Hall-Héroult process. In this process aluminium oxide is dissolved in molten cryolite and then electrolytically reduced to pure aluminium. Making aluminium is very energy intensive. 5% of the electricity generated in the USA is used in aluminium production."

[@DJ_Taylor24]

The best thing to do about power is to make solar and wind generation stations along your rail system. Each rail post has two hook ups for power so you can connect power stations along the rail system rather than building power at you base saving a bunch of space

[@lordsherifftakari4127]

you went and grabbed that medium Turbine = use it for the "Free" power. if anything, build small platforms to hold a turbine and stick them along the track attached to the poles. power for DAYZ!

[@albertocarlosmartinez8717]

Buen video. Pero como un buen astronauta antes de empezar la misión de Frank es preparar la base. He visto desde tu episodio 1 al 5 (este video) de la expansión Glitchwalkers y vi que con tanta emoción que llevabas te olvidaste los pasos básicos de un astronauta en una simulación de Astroneer: Preparar la base para la supervivencia en diferentes entornos o mundos. Yo ya comencé a jugar la expansión y he preparado la base un poco. Lo único que falta es proveerle energía y transporte y luego si continuo con la misión. Buen video y gracias por identificarme una planta para proveerme de recursos orgánicos infinito que no conocía que la del planeta Sylvia.... 😅 Bueno. Sin más... Saludos y gracias.

[@WharfRat0A54]

I don't want to spoil, so all I'll say is the DLC is good, but they really missed an opportunity to let us explore the planet after the missions are done. Thanks for the series, loving it.

[@Platformtypea]

YESSSSSSSS. 🚂

[@93_rafael]

You need to organize your platforms and add more power sources. Even the organic generator will help you a lot. Try to build a train station so you can prepare/start automation. Good luck 👍

[@Bigrignohio]

Also to add, I believe from OLM's playthrough that canyon has a LOT of POI wrecks to explore.

[@CharlesPruden]

Laterite is a red, porous, clay-like soil that is rich in iron and aluminum.

[@celianlevain7525]

Laterite is the nearly same as Bauxite, but Bauxite is preffered in Aluminum Production because of it´s clearer, Laterite has more Hämatite in it

[@andrewsiyaka7449]

It is the same way with Wolframite. It's ore looks more like bismuth, and the real ore looks like a black version of the quartz nodes

[@obi-wanw3598]

I'm loving the series! I'm not sure if you know but you can have more that 3 cars on the train.

[@mrcheburek3718]

24:12 The platform you took the wind turbine from also looks to be fully functional.

[@Tacjester96]

Z you can put the soil canister on your tool so you never loose it and it doesn't take up a space in your back pack

[@andy06180]

I think I saw a portable d-cipher in the small printer can't wait for episode 6😁

[@connorcarnahan3090]

if you run the train into the storm, you could put your wind turbines there for more power to the network

[@Lastofus_Gaming]

Don't forget power you're going to need lots of it!

[@brimal_rage]

Your generator glitched through the ground due to the game rendering items/resources before the terrain leading to the game believed they are in mid-air where they begin to descend. Once the terrain loads in after the object starts falling it then gets stuck in the ground, and if you ever built a ramp under your vehicle you'll know that the object will just fall through the ground until it reaches solid ground again (usually the first cave layer)

[@andor7044]

Dude, you can craft a portable D-Cipher...😂

[@christaylor6112]

Place a de cypher next to ruby. It collects better. I found that the red storm was by far hardest due to terrain, agressive plants, and storm itself visibility. I ended up using the train to as a mobile platform for ruby and de Cypher as i didnt need power and could send and call back from outside the storm. Also ended up linking train to the portal to decode it with power.

[@josephfiore2843]

I got it the day it came out, opened the first storm/gateway, and kind of fell off. It's fun and the huge planet is interesting. But it seems like we're just activating the old gateways with extra steps. I'm enjoying watching play throughs and may finish it

[@greywolf9783]

4:43 Each rail post bundle may have 10 posts, but it's worth 9 more tethers per bundle than the tether bundles are

[@damonseib9262]

Make sure you keep one of each data storms you will need one of each

[@lionelpopplewell6268]

if the storms don't move, set the rail next to 1 with a platform of wind turbines in the storm , free power

[@CharlesPruden]

It looks like the train engine has connection ports on the sides.

[@calibursatsujin3112]

It is very worth it to have a tapper-> auto arm-> furnace-> medium generator rather than just settle for small gens, especially if you can use a portable smelter since it uses way less power

[@Z1Gaming]

Did this in the video…..

[@calibursatsujin3112]

@ commented that before you actually got to that part

[@koreyokeene]

glitchwalkers totally worth it

[@greywolf9783]

5:50 You don't NEED a rail station it's just nice to have.

[@ziploc2000]

I forgot to check researchable items after opening the Alpha gate, and did the Delta gate as well without any vehicles. That was a pain, especially when I realized I'd made things harder for myself than necessary.

[@Tacjester96]

Z you can put up to 5 cars on the engine it is definitely worth doing

[@Achilds01]

You could have just put the medium storage onto the 2 slot on the base, instead of manually placing them on to a slot.

[@Squishmitt]

you keep saying you need more power, but you leave your medium turbine sitting on the ground, not providing power

[@Blakeyblake88]

If you activate the other device in the cave to obtain another delta toolkit, it's worth 8,000 bytes.

[@tm1699]

You're live in Arkansas. Cool, so do I.

[@midni8rideranime626]

It clearly says 1/6 in the description of the rail engine... bro... T_T

[@Z1Gaming]

Thanks! I did see this and was aware of this, did I say something during the video that would indicate otherwise? Thanks again! 😃

[@stephenalt4652]

It seems like you might have left the medium generator in the wreck, you didn't seem to have it in the clip of you arriving at your base.

[@calvingoodwin167]

I wonder if you can put wind turbines or something on the posts

[@ChodaBoyUSA]

Can't you just put the medium storage with the research directly on the side of the main habitat? I think that is why it has the two-port connections.

[@Achilds01]

Just put the power onto the rail car and disconnect it from the base so only the engine has power from them. Did you leave the Medium Generator at the other base?

[@matthewreed1781]

20:37 Z can you put the storage on the side of the shelter so you don’t have to move the data 1 by 1 to the dcypher?

[@Some.random.person01]

I was playing yesterday and I found a rib bone half buried in the ground. I wonder if they are going to add animals in the future?

[@BraydonAttoe-xs4yg]

I've been playing this game since early access. Way way back in the day. And sadly no. They made a statement years ago about how they never wanted to add animals/ hostiles/hunger/ or basically any semblance of resistance to your player aside from oxygen/power

[@flash1259]

Maybe one of these days we can find a dna sample on one of the bones and have a machine we can use to clone the animals and bring them back.

[@Some.random.person01]

Or clone them to sniff out resources for us

[@christinareeb7577]

aye Hello from NWA!!

[@ChodaBoyUSA]

Why not build the mobile D-Cipher and put it on the platform with the Ruby?

[@koreyokeene]

ive got 5 rail cars on my train and i backed my train into the storms with the ruby on th last car and the D-cifer on the first car so i could check the progress of the storm deta. i dont know the max number of cars is. but 5 was a good number for me.

[@larrykelbaughjr.1831]

Glitchwalkers is interesting, I'll give it that! But, some things being "hacked" are too much! Just certain things in the game shouldn't be prevented from being accessible! Oxygen tank, drill mods, & more things like that! & fix the ground so we don't lose stuff through it!!

[@TheWanderingtraveller]

You promised to keep your areas clean in the first episode 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@Daeon108]

Spoilers, but need help 😂 Am I doing something wrong, I need to produce the extra hacker keys but the portable d cipher isn't spitting them out to finish breaking into the core after you get the initial round of keys. Fed like 40 alpha storm data into it and nothing.

[@jlyvren89]

Bauxite & Laterite are 2 different sources that can contain aluminum.

Is their more bone peces ether on the same plan it or different plan it if so you can make giant Skelton

[@stormquiver]

why not add wind generators on your train?

[@Charles-7]

he doesn't need them since the rail posts also has a cable connection at the base of them, so if they're connected to an external power source, it'll provide power to the train/cars there.

[@stormquiver]

@@Charles-7 two slots on the front of the train. more power the better...

[@KnightRanger38]

Actually, how about putting small wind generators on several of the rail posts? That might provide some power at all times as well.

[@stormquiver]

​@@KnightRanger38for sure

[@Charles-7]

@@KnightRanger38 and some small batteries, and even tho batteries need lithium, there's some around the zeta storm. and besides the wind aren't always turning the turbines, and without batteries there's nothing to store that power anyway.

Why don't you build up an organic/small generator power farm? Your power troubles would be over.
