"Deliver water to the cultivator"

[Swaggaccino]

So I have 3 different water pumps going into a water compressor to a water decompressor to water filtration, to 3 water storage tanks and finally into the cultivator yet the cultivator always has that red water drip symbol. I have the cultivator constructed on the hazenite deposit but am stumped on what to do next. Any suggestions? Thanks.

EDIT: It was a glitch. If you are having the same problem, type restart_map into console and do the objective exactly as specified (e.g. build an actual pipe segment if it wants you to build a pipe, not compressor/decompressor, and have em at lvl 1, not 2 or 3 if you turtled like me and researched later technologies).

This might sound like the most IT answer ever but, is the water pipe going to the liquid intake port of the cultivator?

my guess is more that the filter is connected the wrong way (it matter from where the mud comes) or there is not enove water filtered.

Not directly no? I have some storage tanks along the way? Is that ok?

I doubled checked and it looks right. See pic above.

Are you feeding water or mud into that filter? If it's water then you can remove the filter and straight connect the water pipe to the cultivator, otherwise switch the de-compressor over to mud if you have any in the network.

I have 3 compressors going into 1 decompressor. I think two are definitely mud and the other sludge, I will check. Can that work though? 3 compressors into 1 decompressor?

You didn't select liquid on decmopressor. On topic of selection, make sure you also select right plant, the 'nites' sites tend to autoselect plant for your first cultivator.

I have liquid selected on the decompressor. Redid my setup to make it filter water before compressing it.

Which plant do I select on the cultivator?

Okay I fixed it. restart_map into console. It was a glitch. Had like 20 achievements pop.

Depends, I'd say go for the ones that have the 'inites', in this case, hadanite should be the best option, and it is the one selected. There are guides on what plants are the best, but usually they don't differ that much in production, so I would go with the one that offers plant matter and a rare resource only plants can produce. There are shrooms that produce cobalt too, so I would advise for you to look for the big purple shrooms to have constant cobalt income, even if it is a minor income. Carbon and iron is best to be acquired from the resource synthetizing, since one t3 fusion reactor can support 7 t3 synthesizers, which is about 28 carbon/iron per second, and they take much less space than cultivators/harvesters.

Also if you are in campaign, I would advise going for the acid biome and establishing a cultivator base there, you could get most if not all of the 'inites' there and a titanium plant. Recon site doesn't have any waves spawning there, so it is the best option imo.
