Engineering the MOST PROFITABLE MINE EVER in Hydroneer...

A brand new update in Hydroneer brings new mining equipment, with tier 3 dirt now minable which means I can increase my profit majorly! Maybe one day I can afford to not walk around in my pants as I will be filthy rich, or maybe just filthy...

About Hydroneer:
Hydroneer is a mining sandbox game where you dig for gold and other resources to build massive mining machines and a base of operation. Use primitive tools, hydro-powered machines, and player-built structures to dig and evolve your operation in this tycoon-style progression system.
Using a state-of-the-art voxel based terrain system, you can create cave networks, quarry pits, or even mud mountains. Discover relics of the past in the depths of Hydroneer, with better rewards the deeper you dig.
Hydroneer features a dynamic modular system for building structures and hydro powered machinery. Create the base of operations from your own design to optimise your work. Create networks of hydro pipes, control pressure. Craft resources, weaponry, and jewellery.
Rigs are large hydro powered machines used for a variety of uses, from digging resources to transporting goods.
Various parcels of land await you in the world of Hydroneer, each with their own advantages. Deeper pits, attractive scenery, and closer stores. You decide where to build your base of operations.

From how I understand it: Lower elevation dirt = Larger chunks of ore/gem Ore veins = Higher likelihood to get a specific type of ore from the generated dirt Higher tier miners = Ability to drill higher tier dirt + ability to take higher pressure water inputs = Faster mining

[@froozer7904]

Waiting on the Josh and RCE collab where they put their pc's to the test

[@Taolan8472]

All correct. Water pressure is speed only, tier is weight/value range (also corestone can only be drilled at t2/3). The splashing at the pipe on the t2 and t1 drills are because they were being fed pressure above their max. RCE does need to ditch the shredder hook on his main file tho. They're no longer available in the shops because they are no longer necessary since they fixed harvesters.

@@RealCivilEngineerGaming Surely the best way is to melt it all into massive bars, as they seem to be basically potentially "infinite" in density, instead of creating giant piles. I'd be interested to know how big it could be made, and how much that would be worth.

[@xLeiZzex]

@@TheBaldrickk Given how the game reacts to number inputs i asume its limited at integer max value (about 2.14b).

[@S2Hnmbr195]

easiest way to find the vein, is the leave the drill in the ground, get out with it still in the ground and look at the machine. it shows the shaft (giggity) in the ground and stops directly where the vein is. then you just dig to the tip (giggity) of the shaft (double giggity) and there it is.

There was so much science and engineering in this video, absolutely beautiful. I'm proud of you

[@itsacryingshame7847]

There's a mine inside Icehelm too RCE! The drills actually output dirt containing a range of weights which scales up based on the tier - pretty sure the maths and ranges for each drill are on the wiki

[@what_to_read]

I'm an engineer myself and I absolutely love engineering! Being an engineer involves problem-solving, creative solutions and a lot of hard work-- all of which I love! I'm so grateful for the opportunity to be an engineer and I'm so proud to be part of this profession. Being an engineer is an incredibly rewarding career and I'm so thankful for the amazing opportunities that engineering provides. Thanks to I Love Engineering for being such an inspirational resource and for helping me learn more about engineering. It's an amazing platform that helps engineers stay informed and motivated. Keep up the great work I Love Engineering!

[@cheesygapple5055]

RCE, I love how your videos are so wel edited and that you can really see your having fun making these videos. Keep doing what your doing!

[@maartmaster]

the reason all chunks from the drills are similar is because dirt chunks can "Clump together" forming larger dirt clumps, basically growing in worth. Higher tier miners are just able to dig up bigger chunks at a faster rate, but all dirt can form into the largest chunk size possible

[@brandon2755]

You can rotate the boosters so that the opening is up top, easier shard loading.

[@brandon2755]

R, T, and Y all rotate objects.

[@samuelmendlowitz7276]

Please make a follow up to this where you melt all that into a bar, run it for five minutes and see how much each bar is worth.

[@misterspooz7910]

[@zxuiji]

The rake works by where you're point at in the dirt, if the spot you're pointing at is closer to the next block point then it will offer to flatten, if it's closer to the previous block point then it will offer to fill.

[@Dave0439]

for a scenario like RCEs gold shower hardhats were invented, its dangerous having fast hard things fall on your head

[@erumaaro6060]

I build a giant mine in the mildew claim when there were still goliath drills and dirt dupers (and reactors... sigh). In total over 200 drills, all feeding into a single sorting system. It looked like a continuous stream of ores with not a single gap between the pieces. The game turned into a slide show though(CPU bound).

[@bgyenskate5448]

With Creative Mod you can CTRL+Middle Mouse Button to delete items instantly instead of having to take out the wand! :)

[@yeetus69]

didnt know that, ill try that

[@inferno3197]

I think the different types of dirt the machines are pumping out only affect the mineral gains of diff. Tiers of harvesters, so not when you use the brush.

[@Alexor715]

That splashing from the machines pipes means the machine is already at the max pressure and that extra pressure from the intake won't speed it up further.

RCE actually goes pretty in depth with these things if you go ahead and watch some of his earlier videos in the series. He even shows how he constructs the bridges and fishnado. He also has an entire channel with archived videos from his streams that are unedited, but of course go into much more detail.

[@isaacgonzo]

​@@nattyboh2944 i knew he went into detail, but the vods might be what in looking for, as a 'step by step' type thing

[@Taolan8472]

Hybridsteel is one of the go-to peeps for learning hydroneer. He just started a new "season" of streams for the latest update, but he's also got some videos covering the basics. Bewarb his older stuff tho because he's got guides going all the way back through the history of hydroneer.

[@Taolan8472]

A couple of general tips: You only need one i take per line. Multiple intakes does not improve pressure. You only need one harvester. 1000 drills can all run into a single harvester, no problem. You only need five water filters for pure water. Place them soon after your intake, and only put one per pipe so you can easily repair them. Always have a general shutoff right after your intake, and shut your machines down before quitting.

[@wezza668]

''I was hoping it was a bit deeper if i'm honest'' 4:38

[@gmeletrk]

Not sure how maby times this has been pointed out, and im a bit late, but has anyone told RCE that a single harvester can handle the dirt from at least 40 drills from my own gameplay. I imagine that it is on a equal tier basis, as in my single cloutium harvester is currently processing dirt chunks from 40 cloutium drills. I assume an iron harvester couldn't handle so many cloutium drills.

[@BizzaroHunter]

I''m not entirely sure there is a maximum. You can run at least 60 intaked corestone miners feeding one, that's usually when my framerate starts to give out. Only max I could see is if the resources on the harvester output start 'stacking' midair before actually reaching a belt, which again, I haven't seen.
