Oxygen Not Included: Beginners Tutorial, Tips, and Tricks!

Ойындар

Oxygen Not Included is a complex game, but after 400 hours in the game I can finally present these 20 Tips and Tricks for ONI. With these in your pocket, you'll have a head start in your first 50 cycles of the game! Prepare your colony in Oxygen Not Included with best practices for bathrooms, kitchens, power, and efficient oxygen production in the early game!

Redaction: Oxylite produces the same amount of oxygen whether mined or unmined. But Mined oxylite produces Oxygen at a GREATLY reduced rate than unmined oxylite, so it's best not to mine it unless you have a reason to do so!

    As another pro at the game, this is the best beginner tutorial I’ve ever seen. These are some other things you could mention: 1. Lavatories intake 5K of water and output more than 10K of polluted water. If the polluted water is filtered and kept in a liquid tank that’s in a closed room full of chorale, the water will have its food poisoning germs killed off as the water sits in the chlorine room. The germ free water can then be used in the base or to make oxygen. 2: Make your first metal refinery in a cold biome. You can makes dozens of tons of refined metals and even steel before the biome melts. 3. In the Spaced Out DCL, fertilizer could be the best early game oxidizer. The currently available oxidizers are fertilizer, oxylite, and liquid oxygen. Oxylite can be printed from the printing pod in 200K batches, while fertilizer can be printed in 3 TON (3,000K) batches. Also, if you want a carbon dioxide rocket, just put a gas pump with a gas pipe element sensor NOT gate system at the bottom of your base with a switch to manually turn it on and off.

    My tip for a loud sleeper - learn schedules. Just put him on schedule when he sleeps at different hours than his neighbors. Easy and elegant. Loud sleeper is probably the best negative trait existing in-game - it is like +9 digging with tryptophobia, basically no effect on the game.

    Oh, and you forgot a simple one: don't destroy wild plants at first, particularly not in caves that have shine bugs and bristle blossoms together in them. You can harvest the plants for food, and even make nature reserves later when you research the sign for some bonus morale. I very methodically build aroung natural caves with a lot of food plants or bugs and blossoms in them. Free food!

    The first thing I do when I start a base is locating *4* wild plants that are close to each other and make sure I never touch them, except for harvesting mealworm or bristle berry. Then I build a park there for a big morale boost and I make sure I put the great hall(where they eat) next to it so they have to run through the park every time(to get the buff).

    Some things I learned for peeps like me who are 2-3 years late for this bandwagon: Ranching is powerful but can be labor, resource, and space intensive. As a discipline it benefits massively from automation (and therefore power) so learning the benefits of leaving certain plants and critters wild is game changing early on. You sacrifice productivity with lack of labor and resource conservation, which can pay off if you understand your needs well and/or can plan ahead. Plug slugs, pufts, shine bugs, and pokeshells are great examples of this. Sometimes simply co-existing with these creatures is the best bet! Carbon Skimmers, once primed with enough water to run continuously, can be piped into a closed loop with a water sieve that will run as long as there's power, filtration media, and CO nearby. If you're concerned about efficiency and power conservation - put a gas element sensor with an automation wire into the skimmer so that it will run when there's enough CO to make it worth the power. Plumbed bathrooms can be set up in such a way they actually produce small amounts of water over time. Note that this water is still germy with food poisoning after being sieved and should not be used in food production but is a great way to support industry crops like thimble reeds and arbor trees in hydroponic tiles if left polluted. Cool steam vents and water vents reach high enough temps to sterilize water from food poisoning! A few radiant pipes heating a pool of germy water near a vent is a very eco-friendly solution to an otherwise vexing problem when attaining potable water early. It may be worth it to wild-ranch sanishells if you don't want to worry about heating and cooling. Germs! Germs are harmless unless they are in the medium that allows them to infect your dupes. Airborne food poisoning is harmless to dupes breathing it in unless it contaminates food that dupes are eating. Slimelung from harvested slime tiles are also safe to handle, but should never be allowed to offgas their polluted, germy air into your colony for your dupes to breathe in and get sick from. Your database will tell you what conditions you need to foster in order for germs to die off on their own to prevent massive outbreaks in your colony. Buddy buds who produce their own beneficial "germ", Sinks, showers, oxygen, chlorine and high pressure environments to store slime and polluted dirt (like under water) are your easiest bets early on! The Disconnect tool! It will save lives and make your life so much easier. Don't be like me who was constantly asking my dupes to tear out and rebuild pipe networks while learning how to make their first electrolyzer set up. It's almost always a good idea to introduce a buffer or overflow into your liquid and gas systems in case you miscalculate or have power issues - some systems are quite delicate and do not like to be left to sit or have too much of one product/element. Piping bridges! These boogers are not just for hopping a line you don't want to hook up to and understanding these will help your pipes run a lot smoother and more compact with less fuss overall. The contents of a pipe will generally prioritize going into a bridge first, they work like a one-way valve and even an overflow in some situations. If your pipe contents are getting stuck midway through a pipe, make sure that the contents of that pipe are all set to be moving in one direction. An odd input or output can send an entire system to a halt because it confuses the priorities of where the pipe (and therefore the stuff inside) is going.

    Bonus Tip: Build transformers.

This will ensure you aren't wasting resources on producing energy which you cant store, especially for gas powered generators like Hydrogen or Natural Gas as they get consumed very quickly

    tip 2.5 - you can configure the world settings a bit to make things a less stress for starts. Do not remove the ability to like Eat (you can make it where dupes don't need food) - but this will disable the challenges/achievements associated with them. Instead, it is possible to make them only consume 500cal/cycle each, and use bottomless stomache to your advantage in new dupes - to get the calorie based achievements like Carnivore still possible. (with only 9 dupes, at that!) Increasing their resistance and such will allow you to venture into Slime biomes without worrying about huge outbreaks, or just simple mistakes that would become devastating later on when Heat becomes an issue to deal with. Also - something super key early on - is learn scheduling. Having 3 dupes normally makes people make 3 bathrooms and 3 sinks, but if you seperate them by at least 1 time block, you can get away with 3 schedules, 1 dupe in each, and only 1 toilet and 1 sink PERIOD. This means a good 4 schedule system will allow only 4 toilets and 4 sinks even if you have say 16 dupes. (4 schedules, 4 facilities = 16 supported dupes) this saves in resources and space - which can allow dupes to get done and travel to tasks faster, instead of running with "long commutes" stuck on all time. Also the micro musher is a Booby trap - ONLY USE IT if your colony is starving and you don't have enough production. The use of water and dirt can quickly add up to dead systems. I disagree with Critter Ranching - as Carnivore achievement can only be obtained if you focus on it from the first or second dupe printed in. You don't need a ton - but some hatches ( 3 taming rooms, 24 total hatches) - turned Stone Hatches will provide useful Coal - and Meat in bulk enough to completely feed some 20 dupes every day (once going) combine with a passive fish farm (or printing pacu) - allows another meat on the fly need if carnivore calories get low. NOTICE _ Oxylite is no longer a problem. Dig it or dont it will provide the same O2. When you dig, it's mass is halved - this is true - but the OXYGEN PRODUCED - is not effected, as they offgas into the same amount of oxygen, so no longer do you need to worry about if you should dig it out or not.

    Stress was a problem I was having when I started playing the game but it's a problem that *completely* disappeared as I learned the game. Now I wish that dealing with heat(cooling down water/air) was as simple. You can really get far into the game if you insulate the base as it doesn't help the second you start using electrolyzers to create oxygen because it's going to be warmer. A band aid solution is to build the electrolyzer in a frozen biome but that will only work for so long before you destroy it. Then we have another trick I used quite successfully a long time ago and that was putting the oxygen production closer to the surface and then just manage the heating up of the oxygen as it went down to base using various pipes. I'd really like to learn how to make actual proper cooling loops(spoms) like I've seen in pictures but they seem so complicated to build because people are going out of the way to make them efficient and compact(makes it harder to understand).

    DW. It's not hard, just science-y. If you don't have options you can't experiment is the idea. There are almost always many ways to do things in this game. Like refined metal. You can make it with metal ore in the rock crusher or metal refinery. But that makes heat and requires a lot of labor, as well as oil in the case of the refinery. Instead you can breed smooth hatches in a ranch, which does not produce heat but requires arguably even more labor grooming them so they are happy, depending on how you do it You can also find volcanoes that make metal for you or you can just dig down until you find lead. Several ways to reach the same end, no one better than the others for most things. Same with a lot of things. You can breed dreckos for plastic instead of using the press etc. I always do that bcause it's simpler and I can put off digging down for oil until I want to make steel. You just need a good ranch-design. Never feel as if you have to build everything. Just the things you need or want to build.

    @@toobad8657 There are a few hard checks though. At least I feel as if there are. Early you can make oxygen with algae, but that's a limited, non-renewable resource. So in good time you have to set up your oxygen supply for the mid-game/post-algae economy. That requires a power source like a NG vent, a stable, renewable water supply and a rather large construction effort that tends to spread as you build it. Cycle 50-150 is exhasting sometimes as I scramble to get all this set up before I run out of algae. There are different ways of doing all this too, I'm sure. But for me it basically always ends up with a HW wire running all around the map to tap into all the geysirs, vents and volcanoes I want or need. All of it runs on that one endless wire, and my base is the livable square in the middle of it. So this is obviously a mammoth construction period, and sometimes I'm not done with it until about cycle 500. But it always starts with oxygen. Even if you want to be a homebody and take your time, you can't because you'll run out of algae. Anyway, a lot of fun and frustration on the way. I would recommend you find the vid on YT about taming all the geysirs and things though. That can save you a lot of frustration and let you quickly make use of the various resources you find on the map, whether it's an energy source, a water source or both. Don't be intimidated! Try things and just restart instead if it goes tits up. I've started hundreds of bases. Early on because I did things wrong and couldn't fix them again, and later because I tend to get bored with my bases when everything is done. Space is always the last thing I tackle, and sometimes I don't even bother with it because it's so time-consuming and fiddly. More fun for me to just start a new base.

    Loud Sleeper is easy to deal with. You don't even need to give them their own bedroom, just make sure that they're on a different sleeping schedule as their bed-neighbours. If you're like me, and split the initial three dupplicants into three different schedule slots as one of the first thing you do in a colony, you can even forget about this trait until you start getting more dupplicants.

    Terra is great for starters, but once you kind of know the game, consider the frozen asteroid Rime. Most of the benefits of Terra, without having to worry about heat for hundreds of cycles, if that. The only issue is cold, which is pretty easily dealt with once you get insulated tiles and heat generating devices. I find Rime much easier to handle temperatures long-term than Terra.

    "What's fun for you" > great advice. "Plenty of room for snoring dups" > you missed rotating the schedule "Set direction for the bathroom sinks" > dups will not wash their hands if they don't have germs on them and you can "remind" them to wash their hands by sending them back behind the sink. (While you don't need to disinfect your outhouses, they can become so disgusting that one hand wash isn't enough, so I would leave it on) Germs -> Food poisoning is bad for ingestion but is safe to breath. Slime lung is bad for breathing but safe to eat. Positive traits don't matter unless you are on a harder map or have a difficulty setting turned up. Diver Lung is the only trait that actually saves you resources and that matters Oasisse where algae is not in your starting biome. The other is for germs but in the current game it only really matters for disease ridden play. Oxygen generation -> 1 difuser per 5 dups is enough. Dups can breath polluted oxygen if it doesn't have slime lung. In the early game, if you rotate everyone's schedule 4 blocks from the everyone else and have 3 blocks of down time, you actually only need 1 bathroom and 1 sink but you need to make tidying the highest priority for all your dups. (remind your dups to wash their hands (see set direction). (No promises with "noodle arms", might need a second outhouse)

I feel like I need to not only take it slower and not plan like 10 cycles ahead at a time, but also just…not use priorities nearly as much.

    I myself prefer to have no digging duplicant as I think that in the future gameplay there is way more digging than building. Plus atmo suit will already give you an extra +6 on digging. even though you may start out slow in the beginning but you will find building duplicant much more useful than the digging duplicant in the end gameplay.

    BTW, have you tried taking a dupe every time the printer pops to see how long you can go before someone dies? My record is 38 dupes straight before death. But I had been desperately staving off mass death for the last ten dupes then. It gets very hard to feed all of them and stuff so problems tend to cascade a bit. Still, a useful way to learn the game quickly. At least for me.

    I found alot of parallels with Rimworld in this game (Except that rimworld can be even more merciless/unfair). :D I appreciate your guick starting tipps to avoid certain bad situations. What are ysour thoughts on a 'designated hauler'? Basically some dude or Madam that just hauls things all day? In the beginning, due to all of the digging, there's quite alot of debris lying around and storing that stuff actually takes away quite a bit of space.

    I definitely recommend a Hauler/Tidier dupe. Absolutely. I tend to let stuff sit on the ground for a long while, and haulers tend to be my 5th or 6th dupe overall. In the early game, most materials are plentiful enough that you can just use whatever mineral is on the ground next to what you're building. But over time this becomes less and less reliable. Once you dupes need a ton of morale to continue to take new skill points, I clean up my base a lot. And that's typically when the hauler really comes in handy!

    DIG UP OXALITE AT WILL! It's been proven by demonstration without a shadow of a doubt that digging oxalite does not have an effect on the amount of oxygen that will be emitted. Yes the mass gets halfed but the emission rates are different for each case and both lead to the same exact outcome. So we no longer need to worry about preserving those oxalite tiles
