Glowbug Feeding Cardboard Factory - Scrap Mechanic Survival

I've built a factory that produces cardboard hearts for glowbugs in Scrap Mechanic Survival!
I just wanted to build a factory in Scrap Mechanic, but I've ended up building a fully automated glowbug feeding system. These glowing fish, these glow worms, these glowbugs really grew to my heart. Would you pet a glowbug if they existed?
Sure, they produce a lot of glow poop. On the other hand, you can't accidentally step on it in the dark.
It took me about 10 hours to build the factory... And it only assembles 2% of hearts accurately... Still, I think it was worth it. There are so many more stupid things I can do with all this glow poop. Either I could make an obscene amount of glowsticks or explosives.

I saw you on reddit. Amazing Editing for a little youtuber. And the idea is amazing as well.

[@Dr-Pixel]

@yib Thanks! If things keep going this way I won't stay small for long!

I had 30 Glow Bug in one room and at one time mostly all despawend and i only hat 3 left :C

Did you know that you can actually prevent a gloe bug from despawning You can keep them under water since you can build things underwater you can keep it from despawning

[@nix6940]

I noticed you were rapidly pressing RMB to pick up the poop. I wanted to tell you that if you just hold down right click when you pick up the first item, then just mouse-over any other loose items it will quickly grab them all. Fun video, creative editing, keep it up!

[@Dr-Pixel]

Thanks for the hint!

[@user-lp6qi7bw9s]

Wait how about making the vacuum pump collect the poop automatically?

[@Alex-if2kt]

I have done some interesting base buildings, something like this would be interesting to have.

[@mihneababanu4224]

i just wanna say when you released this i used this vid to introduce my friend to the game

Great Video ! You really deserve more views for all that work !

[@Dr-Pixel]

Thanks, I'm working on it!

[@juanfranciscosanmarco7330]

YES! WE LIKE TO SEE YOU DOING THAT definilty NOT stupid IDEAS XD!

[@voidaurora3326]

I love your vids and the editing you do! You make such high quality work for so little views. I love the determination you show and the levels of dedication your show! Keep up the great work!

Thanks a lot!

Nice work again! Don't worry about the glowbugs... they are really the mastermind behind this planets problems...

Thanks you DPP for inspiration for grinding resources in SCRAP MECHANIC

[@Dr-Pixel]

Great, if I can help people to make the grind more interesting!

[@torgerichardt7550]

Not bad! Youre growing very fast, but with this content I dont wonder. Thumbs up!

[@Dr-Pixel]

Thanks a lot!

[@questieee]

You... Could just make a dispenser drop cardboard into a place where the glowbugs can eat it easly....

[@LionHeartBlue]

The effort that you put into your creations and these videos is phenomenal. Assuming you genuinely grind for hours as you appear too. Kudos to you Dr Pixel Plays!

[@Dr-Pixel]

I always strive to make high quality content. And I do all the grind just because it makes for better content to see me suffer!

[@LionHeartBlue]

@@Dr-Pixel Well I do feel for you. The hours of grind you put in just to make us laugh is commendable. Loving it. Thank you.

[@omarkadir7572]

You have to move your factory into the water to keep the glow bugs alive

[@Dr-Pixel]

No, I don't.

[@Skelebone69]

you deserve more subs

[@conniesloan6204]

We need more factories like this

[@Dr-Pixel]

I like factories. They would need to produce something useful, though.

[@rpgryder1886]

Now you need deforestation robots that sense trees and turn them into cardboard, also this stuff could be used to make steel templates of well made pieces of steel that could be pieced together and made into a metal sheet without doing anything but welding some pieces together to save time for the mechanic, or could be used to create weldable bits, or programmable art creators or puzzle pieces, this is just scratching the surface of factories :)

[@Dr-Pixel]

Building Robots that cut down trees is very complicated. I think you would be better of using mods to automate things, such as having a tree farm. Yeah, you could essentially build a 3D Printer, but it's likely to be slow, and normally you don't need the same metal sheet in large numbers. But I do agree that there is a lot of potential in factories.

F for the glowbug

[@TheRealYgrek]

@@Dr-Pixel by the way, why did you build the highest tower on the ground? You cloud do it from the top of the warehouse

[@Dr-Pixel]

@@TheRealYgrek Yes, I did. But if I want to build from the top of the warehouse, I would have to build something to get up there in the first place. I was thinking of trying the challenge again, but then with an automated machine that places blocks.

[@TheRealYgrek]

@@Dr-Pixel you can get there from inside, there are elevators

[@Dr-Pixel]

@@TheRealYgrek Good to know. I was only once inside the warehouse, though.

[@hfpewe7872]

I think that the cardboard actually crushes the glowbs

[@macnmason]

Make ice cream with the poop

[@stillchill9781]

I know how to fix your farm to make somewhat perfect hearts each time, add little stops for each vacuum pump so that it has time to place the block down

[@Dr-Pixel]

Yeah, that would work. But it still is horrendously inefficient. I should have spent more time thinking about it.

[@treeguy5520]

Make a car factory LoL.

[@Dr-Pixel]

That would be really awesome. I think Moonbo did that years ago, just search for Scrap Mechanic car factory. To make cars, I would have to place wheels, bearings, engines, and so on with vacuum pumps. That's currently impossible, but if you know a mod that can do this, that would be awesome.
