Architect Archive

Ok Ijust started Architect this week and have encountered somewhat of what I think is a problem. I have somegreat quality materials, and have no problem making BRE 13 Mineral Harvesters and BRE 14 Fusion Generators. First my question and then what i've currently been doing.

My question is that is it possible to make a BRE 13 Flora, Gas, or Chem harvester?

My problem occurs trying to make better than BRE 12 Flora's, Gas, and Chem Harvesters. I live in a Research Center city, along with a 43.21 crafting station, and I experiment 2-3 bars at a time, all the time with great or amazing successes. Yet time after time I can never seem to get better than a 12 BRE.

Does anyone have any suggestions or is this something that cannot be attained at this point?

Thanks for any input given, it will be much appreciated.

Yes you can make BER13 for all harvesters styles.

Have you tried using lub oil for the chemical? That might make the difference.

The other harvesters use more chemical than the minerals. And if you use lub oil then it does not consider the stats so it can raise your numbers.

ya, its the chem part that is letting you down..

the stats that determin extraction rate are not present on any lube oil, therefor it does not count towards or against you...

if you use the same steel as you have for mineral extractors on the others and then use lube oil in the mining componant (eg turbo fluidic pump) then you will have no trouble making 13 BER chem, water, gas etc extractors.

hope this helps.

I agree, lube oil is the key.

Ok done, thank you all very much, that hadn't ever occured to me.
