Before you go

Farming steps

  1. Build a Constructor and select Empty Canister.
  2. Connect Plastic to its input and provide an open output route.
  3. At 100% clock, supply 30 Plastic per minute for 60 Canisters per minute.
  4. Connect the Canister supply to a Packager configured for the intended packaged product.
  5. Supply that Packager with the matching fluid and route packaged output away.
  6. Check container and fluid availability if packaging stops.

Repeat, collect and use

Balance Constructor output with Packager consumption and keep the matching fluid flowing.

Common mistakes

  • Do not search for Empty Canister nodes; manufacture them from Plastic.
  • Do not expect a Packager to run on Empty Canisters alone; it also needs the relevant fluid.

When to stop or switch

Stop adding Constructor capacity when Packager demand is covered and the Canister buffer does not keep growing.
