RonEmpire Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Been trying to search around to see if anybody has a Pufft farm (egg sorter) design and haven't found any yet. The problem with Pufft Farms is that when they drop their eggs, the Dense and Sneaky eggs need to be taken out and redirected to the right environment, and vice versa for Dense and Sneaky farm area. I suppose you could just have an algae farm with a mixed gas and mixed pufft and simply just pump out the oxygen and the chlorine but that's kind of a waste probably. Anybody have a Pufft Morph farm set up that sorts their eggs out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLance Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I just leave the eggs tbh, once they hatch they get seperated by the critter drop off point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FutureJohny Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I use "auto wrangle" in my drecko farm. It works just fine. What I am strugling with however is not Normal / Dense /Squaky filtering, but how to keep just single prince with multiple others pufts without manual interaction.

I tend to just leave the pufts to regulate the puft princes on their own, Squeaky pufts will lay squeaky eggs and eventually a puft prince egg, the puft prince will live long enough to boost the squeaky pufts egg laying etc again before it dies, then eventually another puft prince will be born etc. Very rarely do i end up with more than 1 puft prince, but i do sweep away half of my eggs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranch, hatchery, slaughterhouse. Ranches have set number of critters with prio 9 and sweepers for the eggs. Hatchery has number set to 0 prio 9 and all eggs are dropped there. Slaughterhouse has number to max and prio 8 and is flooded every night. This works flawlesly, but only as long as you handle single type of critter per ranch.

Sasza22 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I made a small puft farm recently. If i set the dropoff to acept only pufts and puft princes and enable auto wrangle the squeaky and dense pufts will be wrangled at the dropoff so i can move them wherever i need. Apparently they can`t wrangle the baby pufts beacause they waited for them to be fully grown but they won`t starve to death before that so it`s ok.

GnyoR Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 How about just use 3 conveyor loader with 3 different critter egg settings? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That works if you like to use automation to make the eggs drop on the other side. If you don't then just gotta wait for em to hatch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be able to use just 2 belts. one going to the left and one going to the right. even if you dropped off wrong egg - the arm should just reload the egg back and it will end up to the final destination going to the right. or left.
