Learn the mechanics so you can engineer your own solutions. Dont accept new dupes until you can provide them with a stable supply of food and oxygen. <cite>darkace77450 posted [p:980014269] in Do you kno...

Learning the mechanics yourself is important but I wouldn't say you can't copy a setup here or there, just remember some of them might abuse an old mechanic that's been patched out of the game. For example I don't know what the optimal cooling method is but everybody just used to put those cold plants near all their machines. One of the most simple things I learned is thermal conductivity versus thermal insulation. I would isolate very hot machines (that don't require dupe interaction) in rooms with walls and floors made out of something that's very thermally insulated to keep the heat in the room. --- twylite sprinkle http://tinyurl.com/jeqyas3 https://tinyurl.com/mgvx7h2 <cite>deoxxys posted [p:980015356] in Do you kno...

Without a means cooling, the machines in such a room will eventually overheat. The smaller the room, the quicker they'll overheat. It's better to build them outside your base and let all the natural tiles absorb the heat.

Sounds optimal, though in the early stages of the game I find trouble prioritizing different tasks and they pile up and seems like nothing ever gets done sometimes.

Sounds optimal, though in the early stages of the game I find trouble prioritizing different tasks and they pile up and seems like nothing ever gets done sometimes. Priority settings can help ensure your dupes are focusing on important tasks before getting distracted by minor ones. Labor specialization also helps in this regard. Prohibiting those meant to dig and build from researching or cooking, for example, ensures they'll work on construction projects and keeps them from blocking your researcher or cook from doing their thing. deoxxys posted...

And you'll probably get penned in by harder materials like granite and abyssalite until you throw a few skill points into your diggers. You don't have to isolate the early-game industrial machinery that far away, though.

AuthenticZac 04/21/24 11:02:59 PM #14:	I played it years ago, when it was in early access, clocking close to ~100 hours into a single settlement. Ended up quitting after a save corruption caused me to lose everything (this was before it had cloud saves) https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/forum/0/08864d04.jpg The biggest issue back then was heat-management. Clean water, as well, but you could create multi-layer "tanks" to filter it (but put off a lot of heat). I had plans to move the system over to the ice-region, but didn't quite manage before the lost save. I have thought about returning to it though. --- https://i.imgur.com/MUJCZY9.png My Personal Backlog (I might have a problem) - https://i.imgur.com/prW4j12.png <cite>AuthenticZac posted [p:980031302] in Do you kno...

It doesn't conduct heat well, meaning all the heat generated by your aquatuner (and they generate a LOT of heat) won't be dispersed and your it will quickly overheat. Building your aquatuner in a large pool of water can serve as a stopgap until you've researched steam turbines, though I'd slap a thermal sensor in the water to cut it off before it gets too hot (and especially before it evaporates). If worse comes to worst, you can just let your base heat up. Dupes may not like the heat, but they won't suffer heat exhaustion or get scorched until temperatures get well out of hand. Insulate and cool your farms since crops are temperature sensitive and you should be okay for a good long while. <cite>darkace77450 posted [p:980031976] in Do you kno...
