Hi,

dont know if it was the hotfix today, however, I tried to make a Medium Flora Farm. I got BER 9 as the maximum. Problem here is, I use a BER 4 Harvesting Mechanism and got the Harvester up to 92%.

I dont have the Material to get up to 93%, cause i hit the end of the material. Has anybody ever made a BER 10 Flora or Chem or Gas Harvester of Medium Size?

Thank you.

Yes, yes,and yes.

Made a couple late last night.

Also on the harvester mechanism, I got it exp up to 95%, not just enough to get 4 BER. I am believer that there is a hidden decimal part after the displayed 4 that helps get to 10 BER at end easier. I get to 10 BER on final harvester long before I run out of exp points.

razor is right, the better your component, the easier it is to get to 10.

Hi,

well, thanks. BER 10 Gas is no problem, made them. but still no BER 10 Flora. I have everything above 90% and i am unable to get BER 10. Even with a 90% BER 4 Harvesting Mechanism.

Any Ideas?

Forgot something,

how high did you need to go to get BER 10on flora? Well, I hit 92% and still got BER 9, how high do i need to go?

90% should have done it, did you have a level 4 harvesting mech?

I made two florals, both 96% iirc, they both hit 10.

I'd have to check again to be sure when it switched over...


One thing I do remember, I have great metal... but only pretty good fiberplast. So when I make the harvester mech for the flora it is lower % than I get for light ore mining unit (since it is all metal... or most anyway.... not looking at recipe). I get 95% on the ore mining and like 90-92% on harvester mech. Also the fiberplast doesnt have a HR... so I think we lose the potential 25% of that as well.

I find it easier to get 10 BER on mineral than flora (mineral I got 4 out of 6... flora I got 4 out of 10). May just be random bad luck. *shrug*

Either way, it is definately possible to get 10 BER.

Forgot to mention, that I started putting the final % on the harvester mech/light ore mining/fluid pump/etc in the name so I can tell which ones were 95% and which were 89% etc. All of them were 4 BER, but gonna try to see if the final % of the device affects the final % needed to get 10 BER.

Hi,

well, I would consider this a Bug.

I made a 10 BER Harvester, and here is how:

I justused slightly better material for the harvesting mechanism. The strange thing is, I ended up at 90%, like with the other Materials, but this one hat a higher UT (944 and 990) and the others had more of an overall good value (UT 944 and 894). Well the first one with 90% Efficiency and BER lead to a BER 9 Harvester after 10 points of experimentation. The other one Lead to a BER 10 Harvester after 9 points of Experimentation. The first one showed 25% experimentation potential, the good one 26%. All of the successes were great or better, but that should not matter cause 90% was the maximum that could have reached.

Putting all this together I think something is wrong here. 90% should always lead to the same results on the end-product, and should not have additional hidden attributes.

In this case, I was able to get two significant different Harvesters out of two 90% Harvesting Mechanisms.

Would be great to at least get a comment if this is how its supposed to be.

Archangel, could you pls try that?

I was just curious if 10 is considered "uber"??? I made another post stating that I made a fusion power generator with a BER of 12. Would that be considered pretty decent???

1) It doesnt count against you if the resource you're using doesnt have a specified stat. For example, I made a 98% Fluidic pump last night using lubricating oil(has none of the stats)and exceptional steel.

2) I think the storage size on the final combine contributes to the extraction rate, although it really shouldnt. I've seen several threads of people discussing how their BER 10 dropped to a BER 9 after a failure when experimenting on the hopper size. Try using a material that has better stats forhopper size, so that you get a higher % storage on the initial combine.

That is where you make your mistake.

Don't use fiberplast.

Use a chemical with no UT/SR/HR.

Class liquid petro or lubricating oil is a good choice....
