Upgrading Coal Power
This guide follows on from the Coal Power 101 guide, the focus here is about expanding coal power, in particular using overclocking and underclocking.
The message I hope to convey is by planning your coal power builds from the start, you can easily upgrade their power output with minimal effort.
Coal Power Tutorial
Coal power is the first time you use pipes to move fluids in the game. It is the simplest form of automated power (apart from Geothermal) however if you don't set it up correctly you can end up with power outage situations that can be frustrating to resolve.
Top 30 Best Ways To Make Fuel
This article is about the Top 30 Best Ways To Make Fuel! Actually, there's only two ways but there's many variants of those ways. The purpose of this video and is to tell a story about how much building is required for each process and how much power each process creates, there are pros and cons to each solution.
Train Fluid Platforms with Fluid Buffers
Train freight platforms will cease input/output operations when a load/unload operation occurs. This video shows how to use fluid buffers with train fluid platforms to ensure your production line will always receive fluid during load/unload operations.
Calculating Fluid Train Size
If you use trains to transport fluid then you are going to want to make sure the train can supply enough fluid to last the round trip. This video explains how to calculate this along with a working example.
Freight Car Targeting
Do you have a train station with freight platforms that are designated for different purposes? I'll show you how to configure a train to target specific platforms and ignore others.
Temporary Plastic and Rubber
This guide shows you how build a temporary setup to generate plastic and rubber.
