you don't need to drill to the bottom of a deposit. If your pipe reaches it, it will completely empty the deposit no matter where the pipe enters

Hey matt.

The water should just be connected to the refinery. Otherwise you spill most pf it and cant turn it into petrol.

Have a nice day👋

Youtube stopped recommending these videos to me for like 2 year for some reason. This channel really blew up. Love to see it.

[KadePhillips]

Smaller pipes are nice for branching, but pipes have a starting cost so it is actually a lot cheaper to use longer pipes.

[this_nik_not_allowed]

dowsers usually find the topmost oil first, then what is a little deeper, then a little deeper, and so on. In general, from top to bottom, with this knowledge it is easier to immediately get to the deposit

>immediately connect it to the pump instead of refinery
>waste all water into nothing

I see a lot of people giving advice in the comments, so I guess I'll join in on that:
You can get loands while you're drilling for oil. Makes it a lot easier toget started and it allows you to save up more oil to sell at better prices.
The downside is you do have to pay back with interest, but it is usually worth it to borrow some money at the start to get a better setup.
Just click on your money counter at the top center of the screen at any time while you're in the drilling phase.
Maybe we'll see that in use 4 or 5 episodes from now.

Matt, I don't think you should be selling oil for 0.85. You have to respect yourself more! You've got the time, so unless you desperately need a little more money, just fill the whole map with silos and stubbornly wait for them to increase the prices to at least one full dollar.
Also, the hotkey for horses is a very useful thing to learn in this game. It allows you to buy a lot of them in a short time.

[wgoddard]

Your profits could have been a lot higher, but you connected your water pipes to the oil pipes, spilling then out of the oil drill. If you make separate node before drilling to the water, go straight to refinery, and shut the node between your oil pipes and the water, all the water goes to the refinery.

[liquidminds]

Please separate your water and your oil lines. Locking nodes is free.
Connecting refineries with a steady supply of water is difficult until the last efficiency upgrade makes it easier. Make sure every drop of water gets into the refinery.

Turmoil is such a good game. Bought it years ago and its always been in my mind since

[ImpmanPDX]

You don't need to go to the bottom of the oil deposits, just clipping the top is enough to get the whole thing.

[hassnaindar]

Best strat I’ve had is use the moles they are good, and also when placing moles tap the area in the ground you want it to go, clicking at the top of the dirt they only search around that area so if you click deeper down the moles will hunt deeper down

[PistaZOV]

Most efficient layout is 2 silos, 1 rig, 2 silos, 1 rig, 2 silos.
Make use of each branch of a rig, and you'll get the most oil pumping the quickest.
Anything below 0, 95ct/gallon is a bad deal, 0, 80 if you're really short on money.
Don't drill to the bottom of a deposit, it's redundant pipage that you're wasting money on.
An upgraded pipe can take the flow of 3 of the previous tier, so a single level 2 pipe can take the amount of oil 3 unupgraded pipes can.
With these tricks you'll be looking at 50k profit each year if you play your cards right

[kindagamer]

Matt would literally rather spill all of the water out of his drills than buy more horses.

[jodysin]

You should place dowsers before placing drills.

[keeganplayz]

Civil engineer has become petroleum engineer....

I remember this game, good to see you playing it again! Always appreciate a good gameplay video 👍

[piyushgarg]

You should upgrade the master pipes if you are making it through the same branch.. see the pipes.. many times the petrol is not travelling fully meaning you have to upgrade the above pipes..

[bobjhon]

If you aren’t sure if you found all the oil you can always place another dowser, if nothing is left they will just leave.

[lovebus]

I always went way heavier on the silos and horses, then just sell at really high prices. I think prices skyrocket toward the end of your lease, iirc. Anyways, I try to sell at above .90
