I Created Infinite Power & Concrete For My Factory! | Foundry EP.6

29:51 I'd like to mention that this T-junction does the job for machine on the right since it have a port marked as input, but nothing for machine on the left since the port is locked (note icon under it). I suppose you re-connected the left port for the left machine off-screen, since it would stop eventually otherwise (500l of water in a single pipe segment only goes so far). What I really like about your factory is that you planned the logistics floor from the beginning. I started without one, so now 3/4 of my factory is over the land I have to dig out whenever I want to bring resources somewhere without overhead belts.

5:45 Ah, so that's how you came up with 25. Considering water is effectively infinite, that's quite unexpected point of reference. XD Especially considering you decided to build them all on a single belt. This works solely because you consume much less power than this setup can provide, so boilers run much slower than 20 ignium per minute. ...and water consumption is slowed down by the same factor, so you can run as many boilers as you wish from the same water intake in such case. They'll just slow down even more. XD In the best case, you won't need to upgrade this at all since 8 boilers is quite enough to get to the solar power and in the worst you'll get away with upgrading that belt to T2 to support up to 16 of them running full speed. 10:57 Again, weird point of reference. Just place as many as your grid require. By the time I had to place 5th, I already unlocked their better version. ...are you doing it all backwards intentionally? 11:55 A little tip: Press Y next time you try to build a column. I was blind to that message right in the middle for quite a while. 12:55 The game just gave you a way to bring power wherever without foundations. And yet here we are. 16:56 One of your transformers is connected to one or more power-poles not connected to the rest of the high-voltage grid, as I understand. 22:43 Oh, you will need them. Just not 5 T1 storage worth of them at once. They are only used in Science Pack T2 recipe and the rest is mostly you piping around.

Power is something I always like to over engineer, it’s always been something I like to prepare and build so I can just forget about it 😅😁 Yeah I figured out pressing y allows to build columns, I missed it for a while Haha I just read the part about the game giving me a way to provide power to different areas and face palmed …… creature of old habits I realise I may not need half the amount of stuff I have in storage, I always over prepare but besides from that I kinda like the way it looks having so much surplus of parts 😁
