You can put the spacefarer module on the bottom of the rocket on top of the engine, this makes it look nicer and also reduces the amount of ladders needed

This also means you don't have to reroute your connections every time you redesign your rocket unless you change engine sizes

The automation ports on the rockets should work like this: 1) The top one detects whether the rocket is landed (already switches to green when the rocket is incoming, even before it touches the platform 2) The left one should do exactly what the "begin launch sequence" does. It can definitely start rockets that are not fully fueled (as long as enough fuel is there for the trip). Maybe it doesn't work for non-round-trips, but that is just a guess. Setting this to green also triggers the boarding of the crew. 3) The right one is only green when every item on the checklist is done, including the boarded crew, which in my opinion makes this one quite useless, unless the crew is intended to stay on the rocket forever. There is a chance that your rocket will immediately start when it lands. Depends on how far the dupe is away from the rocket control station. A simple filter gate after the pipe element detector with a few seconds should make this consistent without any unwanted surprises. If you want to go really funky, let Liam "produce" water and energy locally with his own steam rocket in a bigger rocket silo. A round trip to orbit and back only takes a few seconds and the amount of steam from the rocket exhaust is crazy.

If you make the bed permanent for the dupe then you can use the third automation port, which will turn green when he goes to bed, assuming everything else is ready as well.

A tip for the rocket you could put 2 storage bins in place of the second bed and place the atmo suit docks where the two storage bins were originally just to make so you don't have to micromanage ellie in the rocket😁

Ah good idea!

"I'm not happy with the current base, and may demolish it all and build it again, in a more 'ultimate' fashion". What, you mean you're gonna destroy it all and build it all again, modified to be better with everything you learned so far? Preposterous, such thing has never been done in this channel (?)

You have gas cargo module on the rocket, maybe you could store some steam there and fill the engine on the oil planet from it.

But why?? u could just set up a boiler on the oil planet and then get water back in net positive manner. and that's more ultimate. If u can't ship water, then make it automatically, so ur duplicant only needs to tend to the oil wells. Compress the extra water in a waterfall and pump it as needed. Basically: launch enough water to make enough oil--> oil to pet/sour gas boiler --> consume resources to make P.H20 --> boil P.H2O to water and steam--> collect hot water to make oil and repeat loop. auto sweep p.dirt... dupe sits back and deals with oil geysers. just saw that you have ethanol on the map. burn that for power and make water. u have tons of it. that's free water waiting to be converted.

Sounds like a lot of contraption just for something we have unlimited amounts of on the main planetoid. Not sure...

Nice vid! V entertaining. Good for Ellie, that dupe would kill to spend her life in space

True

I may have missed it, but I think you will need another liquid filter to filter out the oil that will inevitably be pumped up from the very bottom of Crudial. You are, at the moment pumping up the liquid to the top of the map and filtering the water, but I think oil will soon be pumped up to the top of the map as well. Good luck!

I dump the oil next to the transit tube with an element sensor atm.

Perhaps start explorung the third planet? There are pips and arbor trees, good source of dirt and food (omlettes). Also the 3rd planet ussually has lots of gold amalgam and aluminium, you may need it in your builds

I think you need to toggle the round-trip option when on the home planetoid. As it seems the game is not checking fuel, as you wouldn’t be able to fly back to crudeio with your current fuel level.

If Ellie really does nothing else but live in the rocket from now I think you should make it look nicer. I know it's not really necessary but a nice bed, maybe a phone to pass her downtime :) I like the idea with a atmosuit dock. I actually build it in my newest rocket and if nothing else it save me the trouble of having to unequip the suit all the time.

Maybe you could use the same rocket to bring water and take back crude oil to process in the main planetoid using geothermal way.

Excellent point!

Maybe a buffer or filter gate form liquid element sensor. Watch it land and use a timer to see how long ot takes to read a water packet, then set your delay to send. It may have to go after not gate also...

how did you do that? The swipe all thingy. 12:00

Hey Nathan, lovely series. I've played a little the game, but I feel way more enjoyable to look at you doing wonders and being funny, thanks for it! I have a question: why are you dumping gases out of space? Even the oxygen you're producing from the vent (16:34)... Wouldn't it be more convenient to store it for future use (or just leave it where it is...)?

@Nathans-Sandbox

I can't leave the o2 where it is because it would overpressure the vent, I do end up including it into the oxygen system later on.

Because of the materials color mod and building it with cobalt.

Die Automatisierung wird nicht funktionieren da in der Sekunde wo die Rakete landet das Rohr ja noch leer ist dem entsprechend wird sie direkt zurück fliegen also bräuchtest dort eine Zeitverzögerung. Bevor du es ultimativ machst vergiss in der Planung nicht wie du das Petroleum oder notfalls das Öl zurück schickst, würde sich ja die 2 Leeren Tanks anbieten. Um zum Schluss ein Tipp nimm lieber anstatt der 2 kleinen Fachttanks mit je 9.000L ( zusammen Höhe 6, 18.000L) nimm lieber einen großen Frachtkanister da passen 27.000L rein und der hat nur eine Höhe von 5 sparst dir also eine Modulhöhe zusätzlich ein.

On your other world it's silly making an oxygen maker that runs 24/7 for 1 Dupe. You're using up water for nothing really. Just make a normal one. When you over pressure is stops. It stops using water. Electrolyzer is using 1000 g/s or water. That a lot of water being using for nothing. 4 oil wells use 4 KG/s. I don't think you can fly enough water faster enough. That's almost a 1/2 a ton of water every second.

You commented this mutliple times and every time I tell you the O2 gen doesn't run 24/7. It only produces as much O2 as the dupe requires.
