Brewing for acid

[AnimusQT]

Well not sure if its an issue but while i have 1000 impure acid in all 4 slots with pure water as well connected up and running. i left it to run all night and only got 50 acid. So im not sure if any of u have this issue where its production is slow.

i have 4 water pumps in a 160psi area connected to 2 osm impurifiers. I getting a good amount of impure acid which i have to manually put into barrels with water to make acid, but even when i walk away it production is awful and in beta they resolved this issue and it was on par with the sulfur perk.

more understanding of it: 20mins in barrel > 10:1 so for every 40 impure acid = 4 acid. Sulfur of cause is better but right now my rng perk choice have been to say awful lol

That's how it works, you should have like 8 barrels, but it's not "possible" to solo, unless you make an alter, teaming up with your hive is also an option.
There is also the option for you to have a specialization in memetics that allows you another way to make acid "more expensive - faster", you can "reroll" your specializations each week when completing the objectives, so it wouldn't hurt to see in what levels do the specializations you are looking for usually come out

we set it up for 8 hrs, both the sulfur chem and the fermenting.

So with the chem lab which turns sulfur + energy links into acid in 8 hrs was produced 99 in 8 hrs while the fermenting in 8 hrs gave less and required way more to make it.

Sulfur chem spec only requires sulfur and energy links to make acid while the fermenting requires water + polluted acid (which is refined from polluted water in polluted areas). to even remotely keep up with the acid farm you'll need 4-6 pumps > 2 tanks > 2 purifiers > 1 barrel, and thats just to produce closest amount... and then manually put in to fermenting barrels while sulfur... make sure you have 5k enegylinks per stack and some suilfur around 400 and boom done you have 99 and advance chem lab makes 2 stacks in 8hrs which in 16hrs wait i had 4 stacks done fementing i was still waiting for it to break 200.

either way acid isn't an issue for me just the process required seems not worth doing and sulfur being the only choice to go. Id say they both should be viable for to allow a mix but oh well

You get 1 acid every 20 minutes. It's garbage

[2-1 your move kid]

If you are using electric eels to increase generator strength and have a bunch of other appliances connected to your power grid you don't get to choose which appliances get shut off while your eels recharge. 4 barrels running for 8 hours produces around 1000 acid with no interuptions.

i have no power consumption issues btw i till have 25w left to use

It's crap, and much faster to just go kill things, but it IS passive... I guess.

ya i wish it was like it was in beta test at least it wasn't slow
