I truss you Matt even though you messed the bridge up

[@grimking-bw1hx]

I don't think that was a nuclear symbol I'm pretty sure that was a turbine symbol

[@rickymattice8705]

hey rce love your timberborners songs and already started to sing along, it is so original, can you someday realeas a full song I am starting to love them more and more

You could use the efficient shape to make a berry farm and a "population production" zone. Might as well put it to intended use.

PP for short

[@steffanshurkin1123]

Beavers are produced in the balls.

[@pjp13579]

i support this idea

[@AleksiJoensuu]

One district: Starving and dehydrated Second district: Has so much uneaten spadderdock and maple pastries that all the storehouses are full and the grill and baker's are blocked Both districts: Have a working train network Matt: "Better put one more beaver to gather carrots for this district. And oh wow, better build more storage for all this spadderdock and maple pastries for this other district. Phew!"

[@piermariamontalto6563]

He just doesn't get it

[@KissatenYoba]

storage and transportation systems in this game are very unwieldy, to be fair

[@AleksiJoensuu]

@@KissatenYoba I'm also certain there's a whole lot of editing, and material that gets cut from these so that makes it a lot easier for us to spot these because they happen just a couple minutes between each other.

[@AleksiJoensuu]

Just in case it's not obvious, I'm not having a go at Matt. Nothing but love from here!

[@SamFams.]

Are you hinting at something???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

[@ragerancher]

Life expectancy -90% Matt: "So that's like half right?"

[@ravenbathory9471]

eNgiNEeRiNg 😂

[@polygontower]

Well, +100% of something is double that amount.

[@awwlia]

@@polygontower yes, and 50% is half 😂

[@elknackebroto7447]

@@awwlia no -100% must be half then according to this logic

[@dopesickdog]

@@elknackebroto7447 no, -100% is minus 100%

[@tomkeks502]

When all of your beavers in one district are hungry or thirsty, just migrate them over to the other district. After they took water and food from there, you can migrate them back again.

[@johnsamuel4905]

They are taking down districts soon So this tip won't be relevant for long

[@TheBlastMage]

@@johnsamuel4905 Districts will still be a thing, just an optional one (and from experience, it is helpful to have them). So same strategy applies for if you struggle with keeping district 2 happy.

[@timetravelingtraveler]

That was already done in a previous season of the series

[@cellphone3010]

And having any kind of water storage in area 69 would mean they could store it if it was on the train

[@contingenesis5126]

yeah but once they return they wont have food again

[@ArispeMatt]

I understood the nuclear symbol to be a clever reference to potentially why the rocks in these ruins are hot and continue to be hot enough to boil water.

[@Hobbit_libertaire]

And to why working there kills beavers so fast

[@monad_tcp]

yep, its spent fuel rods from the extinct humans

[@lorenztor1990]

and also why life expectancy is cut by 90%

[@AleksiJoensuu]

I just thought it's a turbine. Like in the name, geothermal turbine.

[@Nagria2112]

the earthcore is NOT hot because it full of uranium....

[@FoxSullivan]

It wouldn't be a Timberborn episode from Matt without having some sort of management crisis leading to the mass death of beavers.

[@TubeNewrome]

He's a real engineer, not a real manager))))

[@talos935]

That involves Matt actually paying attention 😂 We wouldn't be in the current District 69 issue if he actually did

[@willuwalk]

Gotta do the golems! Worst case scenario it’s a great way to transition to the new update! 😉

[@LeroxYT]

Well he did that in season 3 💀

[@felixcaskey4193]

The rocks are corium, a material created in a nuclear meltdown. The elephants foot, in Chernobyl, is a good example of corium. Corium can stay ridiculously hot, for unfathomable spans of time.

[@The_GodlyGecko]

Excited for your start on Update 4 Matt :D. I've been playing it on experimental and the Iron Teeth are a whole new world now! Awesome vid as per usual.

[@Mole__Gaming]

I can imagine someone subscribing to your patreon to become a beaver in the series, just for them to work at the power station, and die at 13 😅 RIP Colt Smith 😔

[@jacksonstarky8288]

After the Colt Smith story, I should point out to Matt that beaver ages are in days, not years. Every day is their birthday.

[@greenhorngaming6993]

I think you should fill it with breeding pods.

[@DiceSully]

Seems a suitable place

[@greenhorngaming6993]

@@DiceSully I thought so

[@catalingaming136]

definetely make some golems in the mine area it would really help with the beaver lives and you already have power there

[@XDeserak]

Gotta remember, it takes a lot of beavers pumping their logs to get things steamy enough, but then you have to be careful the steam doesn't exhaust the thirsty beavers to an early death. That way you can get the powered shafts to pump for you without issue.

[@exojzz]

Welcome back to Tim-ber-borners!! Doo doo YAY, SONG IS BACK!

Everyone

[@catalingaming136]

best series on his channel right now

[@leomattsson7361]

Yes

[@amanipapi]

I love timberborn because of RCE

[@IchigoMewMew2010]

If Rce didn't make timberborners videos I wouldn't be happy and joyful the way I am now

[@husjon]

If it weren't for Paddy we would all be getting architect plushies, thank you Paddy for your quality assurance.

[@mobslayergaming]

always good to watch an RCE stream followed by some timberborn

[@gobokinje9183]

>turns on the beaver grinder power plant >sets 30x fast forward >entire district dead "whered they all go?!" we all know what you did, matt lol

[@awakenedtoast6844]

The District that runs the power plant had 44 beavers still. The dead District was starving to death

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

Nah Matt’s right he forgot to put a gatherer flag so the district couldn’t get berries to grow baby beavers. He was so distracted with the beaver grinder he never bothered to check his error messages.

[@HartyBiker]

​@Awakened Toast nah I think they all died of old age and the population was never replaced because he forgot to unpause the breeding pods Edit: no it was the berries, but essentially the same thing

[@exojzz]

10:12 😲😲😲😱😱 Did Matt just call himself an ARCHITECT!!!!!!😱

[@lovebus00]

You need to play with the supply and obtain settings on your storage now that you have haulers. Engineer that supply chain.

[@Poldovico]

Nah, he already architected some localized famine.

[@Ciubix8513]

You should put chestnuts in the atlantis area, it would be hilarious

[@cathygrandstaff1957]

If he were playing the new update he could grow eggplants. 🍆

[@KrakenIsMahB]

its official, food is stored in the balls

[@ArinJager1]

you know what this game needs? Pipes! (either in a future update, officially, or at least as a mod)

[@LanguageofWreckage]

You should make a breeding pod area on one side, and golems creation area down there too. The shaft of creation. Can't wait to see how you overcome the water issues the power plant is giving you

[@WJS774]

The sensible thing to do would be to build a load of batteries, so the reactor only needs to be run in short bursts, rather than continuously using up water to generate power that is wasted.

[@chrissugg968]

You can add footpaths on top of the grey planned levees, before they're built and the path will be added as the levees are completed.

[@catalingaming136]

i think that timberboners is the best series on matts channel right now i would love to see more videos

[@sparking023]

Beavers, engineering and massive death tolls due to mismanagement. This is a certified Timberborners episode

[@steffanshurkin1123]

For some reason, that one old IT Crowd bit kept popping up up in my head: Moss: "I wonder why it didn't work." Fire extinguisher label: "Made in Britain" Moss: "Ooohhh..."

[@Gaurd1an]

Gotta love the logic of undertaking an enormous atlantis project for scrap metal and in the process adding a simple to reach scrap metal mine for the pumps....

[@g-ymmt]

you should make a little river bit on the side of district 69 so you can grow stuff there, get another train line on the opposite side of the original one and get more food and water easier also get golems to work the nuclear powerplant so everyone doesnt die if they work there

[@greenaum]

I think you're gonna need some golems to work in that filthy power plant, or else you're essentially generating hp from beaver's blood. And when beavers get bloody, anarchy ensues. Then after the mine is up, is there actually a win condition in this game?

[@captgreenlung64]

Goodness man, for all that is holy, please put a super large water tank near your power plant. Also, yeah I'm thinking sunflowers for the "balls" and carrots for the "shaft". And put your golem factory stuff up by the power plant to use the power, to make more golems, to make more power, to make more golems.

[@toxicspydersroblox4992]

Just want to let you know that you can put power shafts above paths by placing platforms above a path then placing it on top of the platforms

[@Hekki94]

I reckon make a couple of golems for the powerplant at least, cant go wasting beaver lives like that Matt! Loving the series btw, keep it up!

[@catalingaming136]

timberborners is the best series right now by far

[@monkeybuisnezs4577]

That mega strong shape seems like a great place to store your tree nuts! 😂

[@SuprSBG]

Hehe nuts

[@JanTuts]

15:52 "Part of the crew, part of the train! Part of the crew, part of the train!"

[@abcdefgcdefg5178]

Timberborners! You have so many great series to choose from matt! I love them all!!

[@brandon2755]

Both water dump and the deep water pump stop dumping water once the water level reaches the spout. Dynamite a hole, place a water dump on it, and once the water reaches the top of the hole it stops dumping water. Easy way to keep dry areas green without digging channels, irrigation, etc

[@brandon2755]

Also new Atlantis should be called atlantisticle district

[@catalingaming136]

who else agrees that the intro songs make this series 1000× better

[@Cristopher.C]

Real Rail Engineer looks cute af inside his little train c: long live to him

[@karintippett753]

I put some housing down the bottom and some food and water storage. I had a district of Timberbots self destruct. Have to keep an eye on them since they too have a lifespan

[@megazetabetaful]

I just had an idea: robo beavers for the geo plant. No more dead beavers, since robots don't have a lives to spend, long as their powered up and the water filled for them to power the plant, it'll form a cycle you can maintain safely and keep your beavers safer.

[@Why24244]

What a amazing set of series, I have just finished watching all 59 episodes😅

[@renevuurwalt368]

I really thought you stopped this game, haven't watched since COVID stopped I think.. you created sooo mutch again, love it thanks for continuing:)

[@CreateWithShank]

I think we can all agree .. it’s time for the Golems to make an entry so all the beavers can attend the upcoming Beavles concert 🤌🏼

[@szmulemul5797]

Timberborners is my favourite series on your chanel, you inspired me to buy that game and i LOVE IT. After 3 days i got 30h and reached end game with 400 beavers on my world.

[@goldglue8716]

You know it’s a good day when rce uploads

[@fishman501]

RCE talking about the difference between Engibury and District (sixty) Nine reminds me of Metropolis. Maybe RCE could do a Beaver city similar to that?

[@sebsafari]

I love how this season almost ended in the first episode and now you’re doing this mega project

[@bobmiller7502]

cant beat a bit of beaver in the morning,and b4 bedtime, maybe after lunch

[@michealfaulkner5612]

Timberborners is by far one of my favorite things to watch you play!

[@BrennonIsMilak]

Gotta make that pit into a new city that is made up of The Line and 2 Mukaabs, because every line needs 2 cubes for engineering purposes.

[@Question-mark21]

NUCLEAR BEAVER POWER

[@rbw3000]

WE NEED A SPOTIFY PLAYLIST OF THE SONGS!!!! Yes I’m SCREAMING!!!

[@catalingaming136]

I still can't get over the fact that matt didn't use the surprise mine to collect metal and instead built a huge geothermal plant

[@briankale5977]

Well if he's going to cheat and add the node to the map himself (when he discovered the map only had 1 node), he's at least limiting how cheaty it was by imposing his own limitation to power only. **shrugs**

[@monad_tcp]

@@briankale5977 I like to think they just dig a hole and found some old human civilization "nuclear trash" deposit which acts as a geothermal place

[@catalingaming136]

​@@monad_tcpthat's a nice way of looking at it

[@catalingaming136]

​@@briankale5977yeah you got a point like it would kinda ruin the season cheating like that

[@adelbert7162]

If you build high platforms and place the Kinetic Batteires? Gravity Baterries? Whatever their called on top you should be able to turn off the Geothermal Generator so that all of your beavers don't die!

[@felixseifert1733]

I think there could be a very efficient beaver-amusement park next to the very efficient mine in the very efficient mega-dam

[@MrBrassporkchop]

Wow all that pumping drained those balls pretty quick.

[@xIXIxDarKxIXIx]

Having a RCE as a friend really puts this channel into perspective. He told me “all chaos, lots of stupidity, but somehow it works for everyone.”

[@cbadcruiser]

build seed farms in either corner of the dredged area and then a wood farm in the middle

[@SuperRickyYT]

TIMBERBORNERS ARE THE BEST

[@WJS774]

Personally I rarely if ever bother with storage for cooked food, they can eat from the grill/bakery, and so long as you have plenty of storage for the raw ingredients there doesn't seem any point to storing the cooked food as well. Also do you want a grilled potato freshly grilled, or after it's been sitting in a warehouse for a month?

[@GhostiesRealm]

The special shape could have some baby bever makers in it, i think it'd make the shape make more sense :)

[@jamesschiller2785]

Grow blue berries on the ends and trees up the shaft of your trench so you can grow the twig and berries.

[@fenixmeaney6170]

How did this man ever manage to build real life infrastructure? One strong shape and he tunes out for 100 years.

[@christopherblakely6298]

This makes me want to play timberborn again. Keep this series going!

[@yeahitsmesofkinwhat]

I think this is the only channel that I'm not surprised where you're having food and water problems in a district, you fast forward and don't even think about it, come back to a dead district.

[@Bric_workshop]

Keep up the banger videos!

[@tigrecito48]

Technically speaking Geothermal Energy IS Nuclear Energy: The primary contributors to heat in the core are the decay of radioactive elements, leftover heat from planetary formation, and heat released as the liquid outer core solidifies near its boundary with the inner core

[@mathewpoole3589]

19:17 berry bushes, large round patches of berry bushes

[@Pystro]

Why would you send carrots to Engibury? That's one food that they already have some of. If you sent grilled spadderdock or maple pastries over, it would give the beavers a higher food variety bonus.

[@RememberingStars023]

11:38 Matt: I don’t want to cull my beavers at the moment. So Matt is not even trying to hide his architect plans for the beavers.

[@Pokaboy10]

When all falls to dust there is just real rail engineer

[@cyberfutur5000]

I would have some what been pissed, if you just mined the cheated thing. Cheating it in for the power plant is cool with me, since you a) could have gotten the power with other means, which would have been more boring and less a tutorial on how to use the geothermal stuff b) You use the energy to power your engineering projects. And engineering is like the shaft of the trinity of reason that keeps us watching your channel. (Dong jokes and you being genuinely a nice person are like the balls, it's a very efficient and strong foundation for a channel!)

[@7ktTube]

I love this series! Thank you for great content ! :)

[@SamFams.]

7:20 "But he woke up dead!" *Ah yes, that's how **_death_** works*

[@DoginSuit]

Please bring back the timberboners and build the strong city. Reproduction is in the left ball and the only entrance is the tip and the path could be interpreted as veins 🤷. And you can erect all the buildings in the shaft

@@AzuraTheRock I know you like it

[@mustaphamutalib9278]

i love that the atlantis is the shape of a cowboy hat

The hot dry rocks are probably urainium which is used to boil water, underground. Google Oklo if you're curious of a real-world example.

[@MonkeyGolf104]

Who agrees Matt needs his own Spotify playlist full of his songs 👇

[@kastorviking538]

make loads of brewing pots in the corners of the efficient trench since thats where kids are produced ;)

[@glauberglousger6643]

Matt has become the very enemy he always said Now he’s no longer building bridges, but forcing people to build them by building TRENCHES All hail the Trench Lord (I have no idea where this is going, this was supposed to be funny but ended up being strange)

[@Maximilian898]

Yeah kinda strange but I will keep the joke up so it won’t be so strange Ps. Very funny comment, I would recommend

[@ethanbailey5636]

It is my humble opinion that you should grow chestnuts in the more rounded portions of the new strongly shaped plot of land.

[@user-sx1fg7lc3c]

"I wouldn't be surprised if it was just dust coming out, he's done so much pumping" 😂

[@danmaardeze]

Colt Smith was in The Groundhog Truman Show Day. He wil always be remembered for his sacrifice.

[@Caralampo]

You should make a long series with a long term goal instead of random builds

[@RhombonianKnight]

As always, the Timberborners' theme has given me enough life to continue on with my own.

[@aukws7-jp2mg]

7:58 you should make a train line to the power plant

[@xNytus]

The type of geothermal energy that the beavers are using is heat from the decay of radioactive minerals, that's why the radioactive icon

[@Gomorragh]

berry bushes near the base of the strong shape, everyone likes a little bush round that area

[@tinhov1]

you should grow sunflower seeds in one of the "pockets" and chestnuts in the other

[@mframe360]

Here’s hoping the series never ends

[@iFix.]

I love how matt get overly obsessed on building something and the he just forgets why he wanted to build it

[@StAjoraGames]

Technically nuclear power is geothermal. Hot rocks (although refined) create steam which turns turbines. Natural geothermal power (what we normally think of) is water heated to steam by hot rocks in the earths crust. Both do the same thing just in slightly different ways.

[@somax1259]

by the way the train mod updated so now if you click on the locomotive you can customize the design of the train

[@Spriglithika]

I like the idea of making golems efficiently. The baby idea was clever too but then, golems are kinda like, the next generation
