Gooey Thoughts

I think I’ve already made up my mind on this, but do I stick with 2 wide for goo or go 3 wide?

I feel like I am missing out on an extra line of goo per harvest, I’d literally have to make a fairly large adjustment to the build to go three, but go big or go home I suppose.

i think goo can only be 2wide for max benefit, it has something to do with block influence range

you can go 3 wide but just be sure within range of 8 lava. All about placement.

As Wondernut says, you can indeed go three wide. Here are some example layouts where the green is gleam/rock/sponge and the red is lava. All three layouts have the maximum lava bonus.

Yea I’ve gone three wide on previous good builds but was debating two wide for the sake of design.

I guess that will come down to personal preference.

It’s also technically more space efficient to go two wide as it would be 2x rock per 1x lava (2.0 ratio) with a 1x lava at the start vs 3x rock per 2x lava (1.5 ratio) with a 2x lava at the start.

But then, of course, harvesting becomes more annoying if using AoE tools.
