I think I'll call him "The Conductor".

I'm just starting to design my first rail system(LHD), and I've encountered some issues while trying to design an intersection.

First, I couldn't figure out how to make a curve without first attaching to an existing rail which is problematic since nothing in the BP designer can connect with anything outside of it. I got around that by making a BP of just a single curve (after deleting the connecting piece).

The bug where the designer's bounding box doesn't visually match was easy to work around once I figured out what was happening. Hopefully the finished blueprint isn't cut off.

Apparently signals can't be placed on the ends of tracks. Being unable to attach more rails to these curves inside of the designer means that I have nowhere that the game will allow me to place signals.

Is there a way to make a more complete BP for intersections, or will they be mostly manual each time?

Edit: realized after I posted that the left and bottom curves are going to the wrong side. Glad I noticed before trying to use it.

I chose this area because I thought that I'd have room to automate all the super early game mats and build my space elevator. Now I'm not so sure. Right now I have iron plates, iron rods, screws, wire, cable, and concrete automated with smelters ready to set up copper sheets the next time I play.

I was at a US grocery chain today and came across some...misleading price tags. I took a couple pictures intending to post them to Lemmy before going to bed, but I don't know which community would be appropriate for such a thing. The closest I could think of is A Boring Dystopia, but it doesn't seem quite right there.

From staring to walking

After putting off getting more chromatic iron thinking I'd find plenty more in the vaults, I finally went mining the other day so that I could get going with create. I was a bit disappointed (but not surprised) to find that minecart assemblers were removed from VH, but I managed to get this thing working after playing with it a bit (hadn't messed with gantries previously).

Before I fill the rest of the farm, are there any other crops that I could farm with this contraption with little to no modification that would be useful? I'm mainly thinking of altar recipes, but other uses would be good too.

I'm trying to get a fission reactor up and running, but one of the final chemicals (uranium oxide) won't transfer to the last chemical infuser. It worked long enough to get about 20 buckets of fissile fuel into a chemical tank, but that may just be because I was manually inserting to empty the tank after setting up filters. As seen in the images, the hydrofluoric acid is making its way into the same infuser.

All controllers in the network are full of power as well as all machines connected to it.

Edit: For some reason, moving the uranium oxide to its own channel both locally at the destination and on the routing network got it working despite the destination still having 2 channels routed to FinalChems.

I made this album in response to someone in MineTogether asking how to automate washing. I figured there's a chance it could help someone else too.

Does the "signal" from the spatial anchor propagate through quartz fiber and p2p tunnels, or does another need to be added to each subnet (and p2p network) that goes into chunks where the main network has no cables?
