[@just-in-time6069]

Love as always and just got done watching little of retardo zerg and I think we need a willy zerg with a good team commanding your zerg would be good for your follower once a while open up dis cord maybe set some rules like spamming music, certain things how ever and think it be so much more organized even not having everyone one on same team plus the Iq is probably much better with your following and think it could be cool just find server that's gonna wipe that day or one that has a bad group that has to be wiped for the better of the people got to be bad toxic for it to be justified for a massive zerg to wipe them figured throw out the idea it could be a good video for once a month and your followers to get ingaged with great player wish I could play but for now I'll keep watching and give suggestions keep up great work and have wonderful day.

The reason that it sometimes takes more molly's is because the fire isn't doing full damage to one side of the door. This can happen when you do not hit dead center between the two. It can also happen if the doors are high up. In your case you threw them too far to the right.

Follow your doctors advice and all that, but as a little extra, google some studies about benefits, reduction in heart attack instances in people who eat chilli. Ginger is also good. And lots of Vit D. I make myself a cup of tea every day with grated tablespoon of ginger and a 1/2 teaspoon of chopped chilli. It's a nice drink that wakes me up anyway, and if it has the benefits some studies suggest, bonus. Good luck brother, I wish you many years of health on this planet.

[@simonsilence]

Just in case you have an extra combiner but it on the ceiling beneath your roof and just attach whatever electricity producing asset on or beneath the roof to the now upper combiner and run a single well hidden cable down to the combiner in front of your accumulators. Just saves you from reconnecting everything if you change something in your base. I once even did a 2 fed system to avoid raiders breaking power: the big accumulator sits invisible below the roof and the small accumulator sits in the lower part but both are fed into a ring net that has a combiner in front of every turret. Trapped quite some raiders that were confident they killed energy after seeing all the lights and shit go off when they killed the small battery downstairs.

[@granola_ikario778]

Hey Willjum, just to say that splitters and others items doesn’t need energy so you just need 9 power to run 3 electrical furnace. Always appreciate your videos keep up the great work ! Love from France ;)
