#Timberborn high power shaft manual

(I have reposted as this was posted by them in the comments of 'suggesting new features'). This is iCisa's idea on the irrigation tower system. The water dump can lose a further 1/2 of its water when pumping out contents.

#Timberborn high power shaft manual

The automated water pump and automated water dump can work at 1/2 the work speed of a manual pump. As an alternative to all of the above, the automated water dump and/or piping system can be horribly inefficient and leaky. For every 1 block of piping that is added on, an additional 20HP to 50HP will be required to function properly.ģ. The main building, Powered water pump, and water dump will draw a base amount of X each. Piping system, but it requires a special set of pipe pumping buildings to function. So the pumps can fill up water tanks 24/7, which will alleviate much manual labor, but not provide a direct path to water dumps.Ģb. Piping system that can take water from pumps and send them directly to water storage tanks only. Balancing can be done with high power requirements.Ģa. Automated pump that requires X amount of power to pump water at the same rate as standard pump. We could have 3 'tiers' of water lifting mechanisms, a slow-small-cheap shaduf, a scaled-up foot-powered water wheel, and a endgame noria, able to lift water higer (maybe 2-3h) and faster but taking equally impressive ammounts of power.ġ. these lift the water just a tad higher (1/2 a meter maybe?),just enough so it reaches the irrigation canal. There are also norias, and, more interesingly, foot-powered water wheels found in Japan (search for 足踏み水車). I suggested once on the forums a shaduf, which is a simple way of lifting water from the source up to irrigation canals. Othterwise it'd be trivial to manage water. So imho water lifting mechanisms would need to be a combination of labour intensive, material intensive (paper, iron blocks, etc.) and energy intensive. Benches also 1×1 but need a path connection, and they don’t offer anything for some reason (at he time of writing).2- Water lifting: this is a different issue, since raising large volumes of water is hard work IIRC that's the reason why throughout history aqueducts relied on gravity and/or sources of water high up to be fed. The carousel is 5×6, including this 1×3 hut in the back, which is the part you can build on and have to hook power up to. Hadn’t experimented with best setups yet. Shapes and Sizesīoth kinds of windmill are 1×1 but considerably larger above, meaning you can hug them close to low structures but not one another. The vertical power shaft works as you’d expect, being 2 tall and connecting opposite sides. The Irontooth only Engine is 3×3, with the entrace in the middle of one side and the power output directly opposite.

Wood Shapes and Sizesįorester’s Hut is 2×2, Gear Factory is 2×3, Paper Factory is 3×2, and the Printing Press is 2×4. Sure would have been nice to know when I was setting up my farms, grumble grumble. The Grist Mill is 3×2, the Bakery is 2×3, the Fairytail-only Irrigation Tower is 2×2 and affects a circular area shown by the path, while the also Fairytail-only beehive is 1×1 and affects the 7-wide square also shown by the path. Food – Timberborn Buildings Shapes and Sizes Shapes and Sizes I really like it for the fact it lends itself nicely to being set one level up (especially at the edge of a large warehouse), with two platforms to support the tank and stairs leading up. The 1×1 Measuring stick, the 1×2 water dump (note that back square has to be over empty space), and the irregularly shaped Large Water Tank, which fits on a 3×2 grid but has the entrance offset by one, making it this L shape. The barracks of the Irontooths – much more utilitarian. These are in fact the issues that made me annoyed enough to start this guide. The lodges of the Fairytails – note, very importantly, that the double and triple lodge have entrances on the second floor.

The Builder’s Hut is 3×2, the Distribution Post is this weird 5×3 with two corners knocked off, and the Drop-Off Point is a 2×2. Haven’t had opportunity to expertiment with that one yet. Small warehouse, large warehouse (which, yes, has a weird and useful T shape) and the Fairytail-only underground warehouse.
