  • If you’d like exact rates, you can use belts of various speeds & smart splitters, eg.:

    Need 300, so take a higher belt (eg one of the 455) and smart split off into a mk3 belt (270), and overflow the rest. You should now have a full mk3 270 belt and 185 remaining (overflowed). From that you can smart split into a mk1 (60), and split it in two (30, 30). Take one of those and merge it with the 270 from before and you’ve now got 300, with 125+30 remaining for more siphoning off. Basically, 300=270+60/2.

    Similarly, you could do 2000=1200+780+60/3. The rest is left as an exercise to the reader.













  • I’ve mostly been spending my time working on programming tools for myself, for the experience. Last week, after multiple weeks of work, I finally finished a macro calculator for crafting, which was a fascinating project (multiple caches were needed to calculate quickly). Realized however, that the formulas now use modifiers that must be pulled from the item/ recipe database, so this week I’ve been writing an extractor for the data from the sqpack files.

    It’s been a lot of fun, but boy howdy is there not a lot of information out there in documentation form. So, I’ve been dumpster diving existing extraction projects to figure out the various internal structures.

    As for 7.1, I’m most interested in hearing about the raid; their combat team has been cooking well, and I’m excited to see what’s next.
