uMod - Excavator: Tick Rate vs. Speed vs. TimeForFull - Gather Manager

Posted 6 years ago

Last updated 6 years ago

All/Anyone - My goal is to increase the speed at which the excavator operates:

Per vanilla: 20 Diesel w/ 40 min = 800 HQM ore.
My goal: 20 Diesel w/ 20 min = 800 HQM ore.

Which combination and value the following variables might allow me to decrease the time it takes while still producing and consuming the vanilla amount? I've toyed with each and can't seem to figure it out.

"ExcavatorBeltSpeedMax": 0.1,
"ExcavatorResourceModifiers": {
"*": 1.0
},
"ExcavatorResourceTickRate": 3.0,
"ExcavatorTimeForFullResources": 120.0,

Please and thank you.

 "Options": {
    "ExcavatorBeltSpeedMax": 1,
    "ExcavatorResourceModifiers": {
      "*": 5
    },
    "ExcavatorResourceTickRate": 4,
    "ExcavatorTimeForFullResources": 100,
    "GatherDispenserModifiers": {},
    "GatherResourceModifiers": {
      "*": 5,
      "Stones": 5,
      "Wood": 5,
      "Diesel Fuel": 1

285 HQM in exactly 2 minutes with the code above (from 1 hopper)

290 HQM in exactly 2 minutes with the code below (from 1 hopper)

 "Options": {
    "ExcavatorBeltSpeedMax": 0.5,
    "ExcavatorResourceModifiers": {
      "*": 5
    },
    "ExcavatorResourceTickRate": 3,
    "ExcavatorTimeForFullResources": 100,
    "GatherDispenserModifiers": {},
    "GatherResourceModifiers": {
      "*": 5,
      "Stones": 5,
      "Wood": 5,
      "Diesel Fuel": 1

so you basically need to increase Timeforfullresources

Merged post

Timeforfullresources: 10 would give you 2785 HQM with the bottom code.

285 HQM @ Timeforfullresources: 100
260 HQM @ Timeforfullresources: 110
245 HQM @ Timeforfullresources: 120 (using the config at the bottom)

give or take 5 HQM as fuel is used the moment u start the engine so i had to noclip to the control room
