All Will Fall Sun Distiller Guide: How To Fix It
The Sun Distiller in All Will Fall looks like a simple water upgrade, but it’s one of those buildings that just refuses to work if you place it wrong. The issue almost always comes down to how it connects to storage.
Sun Distiller Setup Explained
The Sun Distiller in All Will Fall only works when directly attached to water storage, and will show “no storage attached” if it is not physically connected.
That’s the full reason it fails.
It doesn’t push water into the system on its own and it doesn’t use pipes as a shortcut. If it isn’t attached to storage, it simply doesn’t produce anything.
Once it is connected properly, it will begin producing water into that storage.
Quick Guide
Must be attached directly to water storage
Pipes alone do not make it work
“No storage attached” = bad placement
You can place multiple on one storage
Place storage first, then attach the distiller
Why Sun Distiller Says No Storage Attached
This error shows up when the building has no valid storage connection.
The common mistake is placing it near storage or connecting it through pipes and assuming that’s enough. It isn’t.
The distiller needs direct contact with a water storage building. If it’s floating nearby or only connected through pipes, the game treats it as disconnected.
You’ll see:
No production
Error message staying active
Water not increasing
Fix is always the same. Move it so it physically attaches to storage.
How To Place Sun Distiller Correctly
Placement is strict, just like rain catchers.
The correct setup:
Place water storage first
Attach the Sun Distiller directly to it
Make sure at least one tile is connected
Once placed correctly, give it a moment. The system can take a few seconds to recognize the connection.
After that, it will begin producing water into the connected storage.
Can You Stack Sun Distillers
Yes, and this is a simple way to scale water production.
Players commonly place multiple Sun Distillers on a single water storage. A common setup is placing two on one storage to increase output without needing additional storage
This works because each distiller feeds into the same connected storage.
Why Pipes Don’t Fix Sun Distiller
This ties into how the water system works overall.
Pipes connect and balance storage, but they don’t replace it. The Sun Distiller still needs a direct storage connection before pipes matter.
So even if:
Pipes look connected
The network is valid
The distiller won’t run unless it’s physically attached to storage.
Best Sun Distiller Setup In All Will Fall
Once you understand the system, the setup becomes consistent.
Always anchor distillers to storage first
Place multiple on the same storage to scale output
Keep storage close to where water is needed
Use pipes only after the system is properly connected
Think of the distiller as feeding a storage node, not the pipe network.
Final Blurb
The Sun Distiller isn’t broken, it’s just strict about how it connects. If it isn’t touching storage, it does nothing, even if everything looks hooked up.
Once you build around storage instead of pipes, the system clicks. Attach it properly, stack it where it makes sense, and your water supply becomes steady instead of inconsistent.
