Farming Hacks? - Timberborn (Part 5)

[@MatthewChenault]

Yes, you need to build up that levy at the opposite end of the map. Water will exit the map when it reaches the map edge. So, in order to build up the lake level height, you need to ensure there’s nowhere on the map for the water to flow.

[@lightspeednerd6467]

correct looks like pravus didn't look anything up

[@chandrasivaram]

Pravus, to increase DAM water level , you need to build dam (close) at other end of the MAP where water flows outside of map ending. Use dynamite to dig deeper in your river areas, so that it can store twice much water .

[@electricheisenberg5723]

Pravus power goes through ALL buildings. You didn’t need the high shafts, you can just connect to the warehouses under.

[@PupOrionSirius26]

Not all building transfer power. Only ones that do will engage with the gear shafts with a blue gear icon. And no, they don't transfer it upward.

[@electricheisenberg5723]

It's not seepage into the ground, it's evaporation. Meaning deep reservoirs are preferable to wide as only the top layer evaporates.

[@do0nv]

In this episode Pravus does a bunch of smart things. Finally!

[@Nerazmus]

And then forgets to close the flood-gate and wonders why the lake isn't filling up.

[@shadowproductions969]

One thing that can be a challenge but really rewarding is to build a huge terraced multi dam. There's a few guys you can watch for inspiration if you want, but essentially using a series of dams you can create near infinite water flow for power as well as a really long sustaining water supply to last through even the longest of droughts

[@almar8874]

There are 2 ways to handle droughts: Build high dams to store more water in the river, or build lots of pumps and tanks to store more water on the land.

[@adrianpacuan3750]

Please make this series longer. I love this one.❤

[@stoneforge9837]

You can limit what goes into the store houses, because everything is slowly going to fill with wheat.

[@Nerazmus]

How to start building up water? Well, maybe try closing the flood gate. I think that would do the trick.

[@andstufff]

2:30 - pravus sowing 15:20 - pravus reaping

[@jessedarby2243]

water flows off the edge of the map. if you don't build a wall at the other side of your reservoir it will never fill up. you are very much not filling it faster than you are losing water.

[@Aisndianeidnawbedja]

Man seeing a new timberborn video fr pravus is just a great feeling

[@cowboyboots9901]

Part 1, "power goes through buildings". Part 2, "power goes through buildings". Part 3, "power goes through buildings". Part 4, "power goes through buildings". Part 5, "I need to use high power shafts to raise power to the grist mills."

[@coffin4738]

You will have to block off the edges of the map to keep water in. Also you should select each warehouse to store certain items and block others from being stored to maximize your storage.

[@XxSlimfastxX]

I'm 30 seconds into the vid so I don't know yet if you figured it out. The water is running off the edge of the map in the reservoir you built. You need to build a levee to block it to raise the water level

[@sasharose488]

i actually bought the game after watching ep 4 and built that mega dam you can almost get 9 days worth of water in it if you improve it like i did after seeing your version and built the dam myself but i highly recommend the lake map strongly its so much fun and you get a new challenge on how to store up water because there is no easy way to store it

[@prestonfry5233]

Build the Damn Dam!

[@rickcoona]

Yes, the water is running off the edge if the map! *FIX IT!* 😈

[@DAMDARAMDAMDAAAAAMM]

At my current run 50% of my beaver population died due to a horrible failure (deleted some paths and had no food production) but this farming hack saved my game.

[@marnixmulder3049]

the water falls of the edge of the map

[@simonholt2870]

I was wondering if someone would mention that. It falls off the far side of the map that empties the reservoir before the flood gates can

[@cetrana15]

Close your map edge with levees or else it will flow out of the map and you lost water.

[@spritemon98]

To bad he never read comments

[@interstellardragonet8705]

I only have one thing to say, well, multiple things: “Oh dam.”

[@orblite1]

for your windmill. all buildings that require power will transfer power to adjacent buildings ie if you place one beaver will on a logmill and place a gearshop right next to it then the beaver wheel will power both buildings through one input

[@liqw3d]

This game is so to fun, you water is escaping off map, buold another levee along the edge of map and you will stop the loss

[@liqw3d]

I posted this before you had the revelation haha

[@nicholasmaher1909]

Loving this series!

[@phoenixgaming5549]

I really like the series keep it up

[@maltardraco9555]

Pravus is right, this is how we do farming in Minecraft.

[@ConvetionalHeretic]

You should build a 1 high flood gate at the end of your river (before the big basin) when the drought starts you close the river completely and keep it filled up higher for longer. Especialy later on when you will be pumping out more water. Also, with enough explosives you can make your river 2 deep. The pumps for these guys are 2 deep max, augments your water stores even more. (Don’t forget to reopen the floodgates at the end of the drought or else you will flood your town.)

[@aaronbaker2186]

Stream guage also measures water flow, so put them in front of or behind water wheels to get an idea how much power is behind the flow...or place them first to figure out where to put wheels.

[@PupOrionSirius26]

Could you not see it literally running off the map after the lake?

[@dennylukman1801]

If the dev left that exploit unattended, I say they praise Pravus.

[@quinten106]

Praise pravus

[@ViperRST82]

Absolutely immediately thought Sarlacc pit too

[@Sefaor]

You can check water levels. It's under water management tab I think.

[@electricheisenberg5723]

I think it’s a thing you can build and also checks speed

[@timi1710]

Spiff would be proud

[@sixtoplacencia3576]

Dam the lake!! thats a great idea.

[@ThisIsNotADrell]

Kekekeke,i just love war hing you and your funny reactions. Hehehe.

[@Pisces8Gemini]

Yes. A perfect start to my day.

[@Rakan_Alshouaibat]

How about you start storing water using some levees to increase the surface area of the river so you can store more water

[@AllenYCLau]

Dam is the new road in Pravus' world now

[@CMDRunematti]

the hell do you mean it's dumb that the water is flowing out of the map? how else did you think it was going away? O_o it would just rise and rise and rise if the edge didn't drain

[@zzbudzz]

Before you get explosives you can put levees around one block of land and fill it with the water dump ..it does the same thing as a hole in the ground with a water pump👍

[@lucasn4077]

15:18 yeah, yeah it does

[@Scy]

You really need to learn the key bindings, mr. Clickety click For starters, p pauses and starts buildings instead of clicking the pause and start buttons For closers, backspace or delete(?) deletes stuff, instead of clicking the trash can (and press enter to confirm)

Fun fact: iron teeth can build engines for power

[@swisscheese489]

it does fall of the edge of the map

[@historygaming3765]

this is some minecraft logic here boys.

I will buy this game as long as its price drops to less than 10 bucks. No rush, we are not beavers. LOL

[@hurryupharryg]

Use dynamite to make the lake and reservoir deeper you can blow down about 4/5 tiles

[@youssefchaoui2940]

the temple of morning wood

[@TwilightRage2099]

Start digging/blasting deep reservoirs and pump from those. They'll last longer in a drought.

[@zzbudzz]

I wish the water stayed dark blue , I don't like when the water is so transparent.

[@Zeiltaid]

The beaver federation approves this video

[@Namel909]

Maybe the water is running out of the map on the back end of the big damm ?

[@spritemon98]

Yep

[@canadajohnpauli.237]

The one thing you're doing wrong is that you don't store enough water. It will bite you in the neck sometime.

[@spritemon98]

His stupidity will end him because he never reads his comments

[@KingAnthem]

Those natural dams can be destroyed without dynamite. Currently it’s mostly for terraforming

15:19 oooh yes it IS falling off, and thats totally not stupid, thats the only logical thing to do .... As you can clearly see, it isn't even 4cm high.

[@GrumpyRussianGaming]

hi!

[@spritemon98]

Your giant "dam" is literally useless 🤣. Since you'll never read this ever you need to physically build another dam at the end of the map because its flowing out but you'll probably find out when the drought hits

👍👍👍

Seems like this gonna be patched soon

[@sergiocroquer3983]

This series has been really fun, I ended up buying the game just out of watching this. In fact I'm copying your idea of doing a huge. However, as a mechanical engineer, your decisions regarding water level management and energy frustrate me at some moments xD

[@KingAnthem]

Set up levies around it, for increased sustainability. It allows you to turn off the water dump

[@jenniferhamels1176]

Beavers stop using the water dumps when the water in the “hole” is at max level. There is no worry for flooding if you leave it on.

[@France.chinois]

@@jenniferhamels1176 His worries are that he doesn’t want someone to always work on it

[@jenniferhamels1176]

@@France.chinois Which shouldn't be a worry because when the dump is "full" the beaver becomes a hauler that helps transport other resources to storages anyway. It isn't like the beaver is being wasted doing nothing if the pump is full.

[@tomx_pl7760]

Minecraft gameplay when? :P Maybe with some automation mods? I'd love to see such series!

[@viktorlarsen3356]

Hello

[@csii6478]

Research the measure stick located next to the mechanical water pump and put it in the reservoir to see if the water raises over time also the small warehouse will transfer power to the gristmill above it when you connect a power shaft to the warehouse

I usually enjoy content from Pravus, but holy heck the misplays and stupidity of this episode is a bit much. It doesn’t take that long to understand the mechanics of the game! You’re 5 episodes in and now you’re wondering how water exists the map? Really now? 😂

[@khressdota1811]

i have to say, i bought the game a week ago and i fell for the same thing. You just don't realise it when you play it for the first time.

[@jenniferhamels1176]

@@khressdota1811 The first time I booted up the game I checked the entire map to see how the water flowed. Where it started, how it was generated and where it was going, how it was leaving the map. Pravus took the time to look where and how the water was being generated, but didn't even think to see how the water was leaving the map on the opposite side? C'mon now.
