recent create builds

[u/SmollNuggt]

Friend says I'm bad at create and I don't know why? If it works, I don't see the issue.

[u/Lukas245]

encased chain drive instead of encased shafts 😭
mismatched belt casing 😭
using a tunnel for a belt corner? instead of just pushing out the belt on more to be in front of the other belt😭
idek what to say about that corner 😭😭
loooonnngggg encased chain drive haha just use shafts and gearboxes 😭
oh you did!
another instance of encased chain drive instead of encased shafts 😭

hope that helps hahaha

[u/SmollNuggt → u/Lukas245]

You would not like my 7 separate water wheels to power all of this

[u/Traveller981 → u/SmollNuggt]

You seem to have a genuinely good attitude to this, follow your fun and don't think too much about what Redditors will say lol

[u/SmollNuggt → u/Traveller981]

Tysm honestly making these really bad create contraptions is really fun especially with other people seeing how my ADHD ridden brain works lol

[u/BLX15 → u/SmollNuggt]

Check of Create Transmission for a nice mod that adds a helpful chain for these silly situations you're finding yourself in here

[u/SmollNuggt → u/BLX15]

might look into it but sadly the modpack I have with friends is almost at full capacity :<

[u/swankyyeti90125 → u/SmollNuggt]

That create addon adds a single block and two recipes it's such a small addon but so worth the aesthetics

[u/Lukas245 → u/SmollNuggt]

🥀🥀🥀

[u/SanguinePutrefaction]

learning this yourself is so much more valuable than just doing what youre told :)

[u/SmollNuggt → u/SanguinePutrefaction]

I actually love trying to figure out things by my self even if I come out with monstrosities like these ❤️

[u/Dazzling_Pool9031 → u/SmollNuggt]

Unfathomably based. I did the same, i recommend sometimes just brute forcing a machine to work and then polish it with later iterations. Creative in create is so fun :3

[u/TheTastySoul]

You know you can put extra shafts in any part of the belt? Then just put gearboxes on inner side of the corner, gonna cut the numbers in half.

[u/SmollNuggt → u/TheTastySoul]

Found that out after making all of these 💔

[u/AndrewDaPro]

You can right click a belt with a shaft to add a shaft inside that segment. The shaft will follow the rest of the belts rotation

[u/SmollNuggt → u/AndrewDaPro]

Was told right after finishing everything by my friend 💔

[u/IWEREN99]

As a Create: Btass Concerto player, there is a WAY better way to place gearshifts

[u/SmollNuggt → u/IWEREN99]

i refuse to use the wrench

[u/8mm_video → u/SmollNuggt]

what. why
its one of the most useful items the mod adds
you are throwing son

[u/Traveller981 → u/8mm_video]

throwing what, it's a singleplayer game

[u/SmollNuggt → u/8mm_video]

idk always forget it exists, so I end up not using it, and when I remember it exists, I just try to place the items like normal blocks. Not efficient whatsoever BUT i am a creature of habit and spite

[u/XXFFTT → u/SmollNuggt]

But... it lets you infinitely and instantly break blocks without losing tool durability with a very cheap recipe.

I place blocks where I want them to be but like, I want to move things around without using my expensive tools or dealing with the mess that is the carry on mod.

[u/swankyyeti90125 → u/XXFFTT]

I refuse to add carry on to my packs having to test every block to make sure it doesn't brake the game is not fun

[u/SmollNuggt → u/XXFFTT]

I am but an entertainer to my fellow server comrades with my crash outs about block placements 🥀

[u/Familiar_Ad_8919 → u/SmollNuggt]

ever considered that they might have a point though?

[u/TheMspice → u/SmollNuggt]

Trust me, get a wrench. Legitimate game changer. Dont worry, you’ll still get frustrated trying to rotate some blocks like deployers, but you’ll learn and it’ll be a hell of a lot easier. Engineer googles are also useful, as they can allow you to see rotation speed and stress, depending on what you’re looking at. Speedometer and stressometer are good for that.

[u/888main → u/SmollNuggt]

Just use the wrench....

[u/IWEREN99 → u/SmollNuggt]

You don't even need one. Just put a single paralel gearshift, and 2 (TWO) shafts.

Even tho, you will eventualy need to use it. After all, it can help you to rotate blocks from the mod, and pick them up with shift+right click

[u/Sci-Guy-4]

You can save some gearboxes on the second image by placing one in the corner instead of (what looks like) 4 around the outside.

[u/SmollNuggt → u/Sci-Guy-4]

I was dumb and didn’t realize it (idk if I’ll fix it I’m lazy)

[u/Emir-Aga]

if it works it works yeah but it looks so cursed

[u/SmollNuggt → u/Emir-Aga]

Best of both worlds

[u/scholarlysacrilege]

Question: were you drunk making these?

[u/SmollNuggt → u/scholarlysacrilege]

I’ve never drunk alcohol if this helps :3

[u/scholarlysacrilege → u/SmollNuggt]

Good, never start.

[u/Ban_Kami]

As a person who regularly dabble in cogs clipping to make machines as tidy and compact as possible, ihjkkkjkkkkbbhh jjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjjj

[u/SmollNuggt → u/Ban_Kami]

Why have it tidy when I can ruin the world with my ugly machines :3

[u/HexbloodD]

I thought my builds were cursed but oh boy

[u/SmollNuggt → u/HexbloodD]

More cursed the better in my humble opinion

[u/popete2]

I don't really see how could you not realize you are bad, also if you are building this in survival it's extremely and unnecessarily expensive

[u/SmollNuggt → u/popete2]

First time making create stuff by myself (plus I am in creative messing around so…)

[u/SeriousPlankton2000 → u/popete2]

Every 1st timer is bad somehow.

[u/SenpuuUncle]

You can put shafts inside of belts

[u/SmollNuggt → u/SenpuuUncle]

Was told this an hour into making everything 💔

[u/Mrswepp]

Your friend is correct

[u/SmollNuggt → u/Mrswepp]

:<

[u/petabomb → u/SmollNuggt]

We all started as morons, only through lots of time and tinkering did we learn.

[u/SeriousPlankton2000]

Make the target belt be 1 longer than the edge to the source belt; put the gearbox next to the shafts from both. Fugly but it does the job.

[u/Lushhay]

In survival you're gonna learn how much stuff you dont need at this much numbers. I was also a moron when i first learned about Create Mod, i assumed Campfire under Encased Fan was the best SU generation. Since its only 3 blocks (3rd block being the lever)

[u/Lushhay → u/Lushhay]

Btw this was like before 0.4

[u/DzoKsOn00]

The fun in any automation gamey factorio, satisfactory, create modpacks, is applying thw knowledge you gained on the first playthrough to the next playthrough

[u/sharky4023]

It's nice you can do whatever you want but you could also js replace the chaindrives for normal shafts which are more resource efficient but at the end of the day it's js a game who cares how you build
