Pre-1.0 I had aluminum factories that took the waste water from aluminum scrap and fed it back to the alumina solution refineries. However, in my new 1.0 world I can’t seem to get it to flow correctly.
I’ve tried several solutions, including:
- putting the waste water lower in the junction than the fresh water
- adding a valve to the waste water to prevent backflow
- adding a valve to the waste water to only supply the amount not provided by the fresh water
The only think I have not done yet is decrease the water extractor rates, mostly because I don’t recall having to do that before when I used a valve.
Any tips? Anyone else had success in 1.0
This is what I do, maybe not optimized to the best but if you looked at my factories they are not optimized but they will never clog because of by products.
I tried using the waste yellow stuff (I’m not at a computer lol) from making uranium cells to process the nuclear by product but it kept getting clogged and I ended up setting up a package and sinking it for full reliability.
This was all my first blind playthrough. I learned a lot but there is something to be said for reliability
