Flare stacks do not produce anything and just serve as dumps for chemicals you can't use yet. you cant do anything with hydrogen or oxygen for now so for the moment you should just connect the hydrogen and oxygen outputs to 2 flare stacks.
It has three products: Hydrogen, Oxygen and Slag. Connect the pump to the first new building, the electrolyser.Once that is created you can place down your first offshore pump.Then you will start with making a wind turbine array, this will serve you for power until you get to making a green algae farm.(click the + and - keys to increase the amount of tiles you're placing down. Before you can place down any buildings you're gonna need to use the sand in your inventory to make yourself a decent sized island, it works just like landfill in vanilla Factorio.1 Offshore pump (found in the production tab).1/2 Burner ore crusher and 1 crystallizer (found in the Resource refining tab).4 Electrolysers, 2 flare stacks and 1 liquifier (found in the Petrochemical refining tab).Wind turbines (found in your inventory).To go about the first quest you will need the following buildings:
If you want to figure out the production line for yourself, see this page for how to use FNEI The following paragraphs will walk you through the process.
There are four in total, in order, they require you to: While you may be used to starting out trying to make automation science packs in vanilla Factorio, in Sea Block you first have to complete a series of 'quests' before unlocking science packs.
To new players, one last piece of advice: be careful of overly compact designs, as the constant stream of new techs and supply chains can cause a small, un-modifiable section of factory to become a headache whenever an upgrade comes along. In the form of both the landfill needed to expand, and the stranglehold of powerful spitter islands not far from the starting safe zone, engineers will find that planning compact designs poses a larger challenge than it may appear to at first. Players who dig through the suspicious rock on their starting island will find a set of conveniently useful machines, pipes, and crafting materials! The first step they should then take, is to expand their island! One of the defining features of a Sea Block playthrough is the addition of space as a resource. When first creating a new Sea Block game, things can seem overwhelming! Fear not, with the help of other stranded engineers, this page will gather all your early game tips and tricks! Good Luck!
