Opad 4 Loop Hoop Shot Guide

Dlaczego?

If you play on survival this might come in handy, since you can’t use the console to add tickets.

W pewnym momencie, player level 50 IIRC, the price terminal gives you legendary plasma weapons, or other legendaries and sometimes X-01 power armor parts. It’s pretty random, Ja wiem.

But if you want to buy those rewards, you need a lot of tickets.

There are three ways to get them, find a few lying around, play the games and win some, or add them via console (Why would someone cheat?).

I kinda stumbled over this by burning through my junk from the workbench, building all sorts of crazy contraptions.

What do we need?

Base game with Nuka world DLC.

Workshop DLC, the one with conveyor belts.

You need to have access to the Nuka Cade building options.

A good amount of assorted junk, not so much this time.

Focus on rubber, stal, and gears.

A working power supply and a ton of Nuka Cade Tokens.

Even ground to build on. The contraption isn’t large, two attached wooden floors should suffice.

I personally prefer the Sanctuary foundations for the experimental building.

Jak?

You have to build one elevator z the conveyor belt options. One conveyor belt without any attachments or supports and one sorter, any will do. The sorter isn’t mandatory, but it better have one and don’t need it, than need one and don’t have it.

The sorter is there to reduce the errors that the elevator produces over time and acts as a power connection point. Sometimes the basketballs fuse together in the elevator and you lose numbers, the sorter splits large amounts of items into single items.

Do not feed the sorter!

You can feed your basketballs into the elevator. You can use both basketballs, green and brown. And you can build the green balls via Nuka-World building options if you can’t find enough.

Pierwszy, you place the elevator and put it on the support, then you attach the sorter at the top. The sorter has one input and two outputs, so it should just snap on. The conveyor belt snaps to the lower part of the elevator. Now you connect a power supply to the sorter. You can test it by grabbing a junk item and putting it on the conveyor belt. It should be transported into the elevator, then into the sorter, and fall right next to the conveyor belt. Now you place the Hoop-Shot close by. Grab the Hoop-Shot and (that’s the tricky part) slowly drag it under the conveyor belt.

Test the alignment with one basketball, and feed it into the elevator. This takes some time for correct placement but it’s totally worth it. If the ball hits the basket/ring, you’re almost there. You should save now and feed 10 balls into the elevator. Insert your Nuka Cade token when the first ball leaves the sorter. Wait for results. If every ball hits the basket/ring and gives the sound, your setup is perfect.

Last steps:

Sometimes the balls are falling from the conveyor belt and roll away. Prevent this from happening by building some sort of border for the belt without covering your access to the token insert and ticket claim. When you finished playing, you should turn off the power supply and collect all balls, and put them into the elevator, because conveyor belt systems tend to mess up your settlement when you’re not around.

I feed my elevator with 100 basketballs, Ale 50 should do the trick.

My payout is 300-400 Nuka Cade tickets per token and game. But I will set up a total of 5 contraptions, so I don’t have to wait for a minute to collect only 300-400 tickets.

I tried to chain them together, but it makes little sense when you have to insert the tokens in every Hoop-Shot machine.

The spark.

Not everything starts as progress. This was the first attempt, too lame, too big, and the machine was stuck after 30 piłki.

Więc, keep experimenting with stuff and have fun.

Ciekawostka: It took me longer to make this guide than to get from prototyping to the final contraption.

Redagować: Made a loop with four games, running clockwise in a circle, so I could stand in the center and insert tokens from there. It worked somehow. But I wouldn’t recommend it. Po 10 minutes the whole system snapped. It will take days to require all the balls that rolled downhill into the river. But I made over 10,000 tickets with it.
