My drainage experience cannot help me here...

Ойындар

After countless requests, and 10 years as a drainage engineer, I finally took on Oxygen Not Included (ONI) and it turns out I was not ready for the fluid mechanics of this game! Catch the rest of the series with Patreon or KZread membership!

He does what EVERY other creator does by playing games that devs send him for advertising then pushes the idea to support his play by donating to him with the hopes of actually seeing more content.

    Having watched the video I have some minor, hopefully helpful tips: • skills points lets you give your dupes hats depending on the skill. • Adding a battery to your electricity system allows for the running of machines without a duplicate constantly having to treadmill • the duplicants have to run past the washbasin to wash their hands, so for them to not eat their food with pee on their hands you need to place it on the other side of your outhouse • rooms make duplicants happy, looking at the room overlay legend will tell you what each one needs and does. • If you are unsure about a gas or material the little book icon has tons of info on each thing in the game. • Getting to many duplicants through the printing pod will get you into trouble quick. And most importantly, they will always find creative ways to get themselves killed. Do not let your eye of them. I am terribly disappointed this will not be a main channel series, I can't afford patreon right now :(

    Early and even mid game is pretty fun, but the late game is pretty hard. Having geysers that don't work all the time and certain resources being so rare you have to mine MASSIVE areas. I usually get all the water and plumbing fine but getting power generation is pretty heard and getting to the surface is crazy hard no matter what difficulty you run. You start running out of water and have to prosses the dirty water. The geysers will turn off, the oil pockets will dry up... You have to keep digging more and more areas and it gets harder and harder. Travel times are harsh. Just so you know air does not flow well through ladders but the replicants can step over one block so leave a gap on either side of the ladders and run the ladders straight up and down. I usually have one ladder on each side of where I work. Also certain things work better if they fit the "room" requirements. This means like a bedroom needs to have a door and be so big and have a bed and you can add plants, decorative trim, carpeting and wall covers, paintings... to make them happy. You want one bed per bedroom too. I tend to do a door to a bathroom with a sink, toilet, and shower attached to each bedroom. Put the main work areas near by the bedrooms so they do not have to travel far. Storage lets you clean up stuff and also makes them happy. A good kitchen later on will help. You will find the farther you go the more electricity you will need. You will also find you need oil... lots of oil. You need it for plastics and likely for fuel. Fire polls next to the ladders will speed up travel and will better ladders. There are higher technologies that will automate stuff but I never managed to reach that level.

    Ladders don't actually inhibit airflow. Gases just don't exchange well through one-cell gaps in ONI, but an empty cell isn't better than one with a ladder in it. The one-cell gap either side works not because it puts space by the ladder, but because it makes a three-cell shaft (giving more room for gas cells to exchange positions).

  • @SuperCaitball

    @SuperCaitball

    2 ай бұрын

    I don't think you ever actually got to the late game. Getting to the surface (primarily to vent unnecessary liquids / gases to space) is actually mid-game. Ladders do not impede gas flow; gases impede gas flow. As Darael above said, you put space next to ladders for two reasons: airflow, and to eventually install fire poles to make commutes a bit easier. FIRE POLES DO NOT REPLACE LADDERS. THEY ARE TEN TIMES SLOWER TO CLIMB. Decorative items are not required for barracks and lavatories, and you really, REALLY do not need luxury barracks or bedrooms. For a Great Hall, a single flower pot with a Bluff Briar is sufficient. If you really want morale headroom, invest early in designating a location as a Nature Reserve, that's a solid +6 morale if you can set it to gate access to something crucial (I usually do the mess hall or food storage areas). Power generation is easy. You get a free 2400 watts by building a 16-dupe self-contained electrolyzer setup, also known as a Self Powered Oxygen Machine (SPOM), look up designs on the Googles. Also, make sure all power generators are hooked up to Smart Batteries so you never waste power or fuel. Make sure the max for each Smart Battery is set to 95 (so it has some overflow because the machines sometimes take a second to shut off), and set the minimum higher than 0, based on the "priority" of each generator (for example 20 for coal, 70 for hydrogen, maybe 50 for petrol, and 80 on steam engines since they play a crucial role in heat management).

    @@SuperCaitball I know about the ladders and fireman poles and such. Those methods for power and oxygen are not something people are going to figure out in game. They require 99% of the players to either spend hours experimenting in sandbox mode or to look up tutorial videos on how to set it up. Yes some of these builds are great. I tried to progress it naturally. The one base that actually reached the surface I had to have replicants living in that area because the travel time was just crazy. Then when I got to the surface and tried to build a ship the meteors just kept destroying everything. I have had playthroughs were I never found oil... or any good vents for things like hydrogen. I have had many games were coper or iron were VERY rare. Or I would find a vent and then when I get some good power generation going the vent goes dormant for something like 300 days. Maybe I just have the worst luck. Heck I have had playthroughs were the algae was very hard to find. I think I just have the worst luck in the game. Like I said I can usually get a good base set-up with all the amenities and such with running water, breeding, and farms, but I usually hit a brick wall because the only thing I have is coal and not enough to run for long. I spend hours trying to get something working and it just is not enough. I have to turn off most of the things to power the higher end refineries and such and it just gets sooooo grindy compared to the early and mid game. Next thing you are doing is putting in mods and such to turn off game features to maker it not so bad to play... and this is usually because of too many resources just not being anywhere near my base. When I have to mine out thousands of blocks to find 5 iron. That is crazy. The game also just does not explain things, like putting the wash basin so they are forced to wash after using the toilet. I also found the routing of water pipes to be horrible. Water would flow the wrong way all the time if you tried to split things in for no reason. About the only thing I never did in the game was get into the automation part of stuff or finish a ship.

    I used to love this game. Then it became stressful when I realized something very important that isn't apparent when you first start this game. The game is a race against the clock to figure out how to make yourself self sustaining because resources are limited. Not allowing the wildlife to die and using them to help supplement your resources goes a long way but doing this adds complexity to your bases build. Being lucky enough to get a good variety of geysers is a huge help also. And you need to go online to look up the clever contraptions others have made to make their setups automated. It's disheartening to build everything out not knowing this and seeing your base slowly fill with co2 and unable to fix it. And then finding out that the backstory is that this asteroid you're on is actually a chunk of the Earth that was blown up by the company that made that cloning machine. And that clones are clones of employees that get cloned without their memories. It's like dang I just ruined humanities last chance at survival. It's been years since I played so it's probably chanced since then.

    A few remarks if you want to continue: - your colonists are called "duplicants". Short: "dupes" - Your dupes won't use the washbasin, unless they have to go past it in arrow direction. So you need to put the toilets on the far side of the basins. And make sure you have 1 sink per toilet - you are using primitve toilets with composters. Plumbing requires some research - you will need several toilets. Like at least 2 for the start, but more as you get more dupes. Less if you make them avoid conflicting shedules - Poluted Water gasses off Poluted Oxygen. While it can be breathed, it gives a stress penalty and carries germs

    I have played this game a few times by now, and from what I can see... they're gonna die. 1. you don't have a battery, meaning your "dupes" only produce electricity when awake, meaning your oxygen production dies at night. 2. you are getting way too many "dupes", way too fast, slow down, take the 4th option until you're ready for your first "Dupe". 3. while the Algae plant gets worse in late game (I can't remember if that's still the case), it's very good in the beginning, or at bottom of your base, as CO2 is heavier than Oxygen... Carbon + 2 Oxygen = heavier than Oxygen. so these plants are good at the bottom of your base as they are basically trees. 4. you are expanding way too fast, again slow down. you need the ressources, but it's fine as long as you don't overextend. 5. you placed your Wash Basin on the wrong side of your outhouse, none of your "dupes" are going to wash their hands unless they walk past it, which they would only do if there's task there at current moment. 6. the skills are for profession, the hats though cosmetic are cool enough. 7. I've forgotten the rest.

    As someone that's been pretty into oni for quite awhile - I want to let you know that your first colony will always be doomed. There are so many mechanics in the game to balance and prioritize that most players will see their first colonies starting to starve because of temperature or lack of water The point being DONT GIVE UP, this game is super rewarding once you get the hang of it and it's very fun! If you need help learning the mechanics - there is a KZreadr named magnet who does oni tutorial videos and even deep dives on mechanics.

    I hope RCE takes advice seriously. ONI has a bit of a learning curve to deal with. I play with mods to reduce micromanaging, but when I don't bother with the magical boxes of liquid, gas, and electricity creation, I take resource generation and management seriously. And if it hasn't been said, you can dig four tiles high, and duplicants aren't that bright. They will trap themselves and requiring swift rescue. Generators are great, but you need batteries or you'll have a duplicant working on generating it all the time. This means you have less workers. Prioritize batteries to make sure everything can be powered without constantly needing someone to make it possible to do everything. Oxyferns are very useful if you have plenty of carbon dioxide. Make an area just for CO2 to end up, plant several Oxyferns there, and your oxygen situation will be a bit more manageable. Best of all, the ferns don't need constant watering. Learn the hotkeys so you don't have to manually tell them to deconstruct everything. Just press the button for it and highlight the things you want deconstructed. Build several toilets. I think a good amount is one toilet per two duplicants. Also, the toilets should have a basin pointing the way you want them to exit. You can have an arrow telling them when to use it. If they head either way, have one on either side of the bathroom area. Rooms are a thing. There's a list of what kinds of rooms you can make. A lavatory is a good one to have, as it boosts morale. You need a couple of toilets, a wash basin, a *maximum* of 64 tiles, and a door leading in and out. Morale is important. Too little morale, and the dupes get stressed. So keep morale high. Make trash cans for polluted water and polluted dirt, as it makes polluted oxygen, which isn't as heavy as CO2. Be on the lookout for a steam geyser. Once you can harness them, you can make them generate as much water as you could ever use. Build a pump and you can have water sent wherever you need it. Lastly, power cables can be overloaded. This damages them. Don't try to focus power onto a single grid. Make different sections as necessary, and try not to overload them. The heavier wires are good, but unless you install a mod, you can't run heavy wire through nonspecialized tiles. Shame this won't be on KZread. Unless the episodes on Patreom are free, I can't afford to watch them.😭 I really like this game (even if I'm not very good at it just yet), and Markiplier stopped making videos for it.

  • @touchthesun
    @touchthesun3 ай бұрын

    pro tip for the toilet situation. you can fit 4 toilets and 4 wash basins in a room and get a morale bonus for having a room designated as a toilet. Then you can use the Scehduling tool to divide all your dupes into different shifts which have different times for bathroom breaks, and as long as there's no more than 4 dupes per shift then the one bathroom of 4 toilets will be sufficient for all the dupes you'll ever need

    This is a really great game, but by god it is a time sink Now what i really wonder is if you really never played it and are horribly clueless, or have played it an deliberately made everything atrocious on purpose. (tbh if it's you first / second play, most of your mistakes are very fair.) here's a short list of very basic things to know that will still let you discover the game : - outhouses take a long time to clean, you will need easily 2-3 of them until you get the proper toilets - place the sink on the way to and from the toilets, that's just how it works. - Oxygen generators do not delete CO2, unless you keep expanding eventually you will build up gaz pressure that will block 02 generators - get a battery, that will avoid having a dupe running the hamster wheel all day long - Eventually you first big colony-killing problem will be waste heat from machines, when you go beyond an ambiant 30°C you plants will start dying - you can mess all you want with construction orders priority, but be very, VERY careful with maintenance/operating/supplying priorities

    A single room with 4 toilets and 4 sinks should be enough for most colonies. Split your dupes up into different work shifts so each group of 4 has a different toilet break time, as long as each shift doesn't overlap there should only ever be 4 dupes using the bathroom. Mid game and later you may have to set breaktimes to be longer or dupes might not make it to the bathroom due to longer travel times.
