Copper Wire

[123]

So [Copper Wire] is needed for making conductive floor for generator, I don't know how that work yet because turned out after 40 hours of playing the game I only have like FOUR [Copper Wire] in my storage.

While making one [Conductive Wooden Flooring] needs 3 [Copper Wire]. Machines like [Industrial Furnace] and the [Fire Powered Generator] itself are probably 2 floors wide each, if I have 5 [Industrial Furnace] , then I'd have to make 12 [Conductive Wooden Flooring] which equals to 36 [Copper Wire].

Is there any faster way to get [Copper Wire] than scanning the Abandoned Ruin for it ?

Yes there is! The hazardous ruins are the best choice for copper wires.

Weird, I've been in there quite many times, but even after 40h of playing the game, I only have 4 copper wires in my storage. I think there isn't that many from hazardous ruin or cmiiw.

ok that´s strange. In 70h play time I got loads of them in the Hazardous Ruins. Additionally, you can find them in the adandoned ruins 2. Don´t know if that´s a rule for them but after changing the level 3/4 times in these ruins I had days were I only found copper wires. And you can find a treasure chest with two copper wires... but I´m sure you already found these.

I see, I'll check again later, I probably overlooked it in my storage boxes.

Great to hear! You are rich in copper wires now

WTB SORTING BOXES ?

So I can use my generator now, but can it power wood based machines or only power stone based machines ?

I never did one so I´m not sure about this but I just checked the wiki and it says "Used on the ground under machines to transmit energy from Fire Powered Generator to thoses who used Power Stones." Not sure if this is correct ...

I see, seems like it can only power Power-Stone based machinery judging from what the wiki has to say.

Imo Wood based machines are actually the ones that need to be made more convenient than Power-Stone based.

I agree with this. Maybe you could try using it with the wood based machines and tell me about the result..

Anyone else find it funny that we can make copper pipes, disks and plates but not wires and have to dig up hundred year old wires to use in our machines?

I personally like the fact that there are important items we can´t craft. Makes them even more valuable when you finally find them.

Still focusing on upgrading house, will do later.


Btw since you've been playing the game longer, any difficulty when you upgraded your house ?
Some stuffs are blocking and I'm going to move them including my boxes, damn this would take some days without gaining something :(

By difficulty, judging from the look of it, the Assembly Station seems to be blocking it too aside my stuffs. Is that gonna be a problem ? How do I move Assembly Station ?

Look at this screenshot, the assembly station is blocking the upgrade

I first upgraded the land, then the house.
Assembly station, house and worktable can be moved at A&G Construction as well. When you´re opening their catalogue you can decide between upgrading and moving it.

Just go to A&G, click on upgrade house and the second screen will open as well. The new area of your house will be shown either in green (enough space) or red - you will clearly see if something is blocking the house.
