[@cyrilderiane7676]

doesnt work. still too mqny germs to purify by the time the clock sends the water out. Is is supposed to work regardless of the number of germs?

[@LowkoTV]

Awesome! Thank you for the video. Just used this in my playthrough and it works like a charm!

[@tnevius3]

@LowkoTV I've been watching your play-through on your second channel and enjoying it so much, I went out and bought a copy of the game myself. Thanks for introducing me to something I've had great fun with! Only 11 hours in, but so far it's been a blast! Thanks @Skye Storme for putting in this guide too - definitely appreciated!

[@Decon7]

Your playthrough is what brought me here xD

[@eugenweissbart]

Hey there Lowko! Watching your playthrough right now 😊

[@thomasbeland1894]

Nice build, you could split the exit of clean water to fill a pipe that will go back in the reservoir as the pre-fill, this way you do not have to rely on an external source of clean water.

[@gamermy2667]

if you place another reservior set up but a half cycle later you can do the dubble amount with the same pump an same 2 sieves

[@SkyeStorme]

Good idea! .. you could actually run 3 or even 4 reservoirs with 1 pump :)

[@daszveroboy]

@@SkyeStorme great setup, i have been using a germ sensor which requires plastic, so i can't disinfect my water in early game. This is great and i can probably run 3 "shifts" with a single pump/2 sieves. 4 is not that optimized because the water needs probably around 30% of the time to sit in the reservoir and disinfect, so you are left with 69% of the time to pump water in and out per shift (34% to pump water per shift or 3 shifts per water pump)

[@UndoubtablySo]

Food Poisoning in chlorine is something like 360% dead per cycle (you can check this ingame) so that means something like only 27% of time needs to be allocated for quarantine if my math is correct Also to expand this build instead of adding more seives its probably better to just add some reservoirs for storing the clean germy water therefore allowing the sieves to run all day

[@Ibian666]

I have an even better system. One less clock, one less valve, the germs die before the polluted water hits the filter so the resulting polluted dirt will not be germy either, and there is no need to prime anything. Should get started on that let's play guide I have been thinking of doing...

[@taggedJC]

You can avoid having to prime it with fresh water by building the Liquid Reservoir on top of a Mechanized Airlock. When the airlock is opened, the Liquid Reservoir is disabled so it doesn't output, but it can still have liquids piped into it. This prevents the germy Water from entering the pipe. Then, before it's complely full, turn off the germy Water input. Once it's ready to be emptied, simply close the Mechanized Airlock and it'll start outputting again.

[@vakalkas]

why the hell does an airlock prevent it from outputting? eh

[@wesselput5259]

Thanks dude, I really had a problem with me running out of germ free water and every tutorial uses plastics, amazing tutorial!

[@KaziAbdurRakib]

"Oxygen not included".... In Skye's base, it's more like "Germs not included"... lol

[@SkyeStorme]

LOL ;)

[@takeetos1]

You should make a Playlist for guides and tutorials like this, so we can always go back and find the videos when trying to do it in our games

[@Aydwn]

Just built this system in my base and it’s amazing how efficient it is

[@bloodyto91]

Thats very cool. I really want to see someone make in this game different BIOMES: Like 1: chlorine biome 3 levels - plant farm for chlorine, second- chlorine ranch, third - the disinfectant system and hook it all up to a chlorine vent. 2: like a hidrogen biome - with all sort of things farms , ranches, fishes , hidrogen power plant 3: like an co2 biome and so on.... It would be really beautifull and you can make them all selfsufficient and regulated. Food for thought. Love the video

[@UndoubtablySo]

awesome idea, actaully in a recent video of brothgar's he was mentioning that I wants to try segmenting his base across the asteroid having dedicated dupes living full time in these places

[@AceNinjaViking]

Always love your tutorials; they're the best at boiling down each system to its most important parts, and I'm able to come back to them even after a 2 year hiatus. XD

[@davidholifield349]

Seems like I just watched a longer version of this, hmmm probably nothing, still interesting though.

[@SkyeStorme]

lol ;)

[@edricnavigator]

Worth testing what happens if the output backs up. I haven't tested this, but I think it's possible that you could hit an edge case where the reservoir is full of water and so you have 20kg of germy water stuck in the input not being purified. Then when the purge cycle starts that will enter the reservoir and reinfect the lot of it. Easy to avoid by adding backup detection to the output, but worth considering the edge case

[@septimustavi9352]

I can think of a situation where you would scale this up...it's when, like me, you have a polluted germ infested geyser near your base. Fortunately I have plenty of Chlorine near the geyser, and I already placed the pump and pipes and power for the pump. Only down side is that the geyser is in an ice biome, so I need to send it to be heated first.

[@septimustavi9352]

Annnnnd there is a second such geyser almost directly above the first one...such a massive supply of dirty, germy water :O

[@volkkeslate]

8 months after the fact but I found this video very helpful. I might add though to answer your question as to why one might have loads of polluted water; It makes an excellent earlier game coolant for coolant loops due to it's much lower freezing point than regular water.

[@brianwest7298]

[@konraddax3659]

Thank you so much! I'm now 80 hours in to oni and cleaning my base and waste has been tricky to figure out. This will be very helpful.

[@Ugnutz]

i use a closed system loop on my toilets and showers and have the overflow go into a chlorine filled room with a similar system to your cleaning room

[@pokegaiyui]

I'm wondering aside from having the out put of the water filter to be directly in the initial shutoff, why not have it buffer it into a buffer tank first sitting in chlorine and have that output into the shutoff valve?

[@lna3108]

I love the 2009 youtube intro, skyes has changed over the years bur it still has the same charm

[@eggtime27]

Could you remove the clean water input by leaving a small amount of clean water in the reservoir after the clean cycle? Just reduce the amount of time on the 3rd timer so there is always a small amount of clean water left in the output pipe? Edit: I just realised this will only work if you know there will be a constant supply of germy water into the reservoir. Otherwise it can't be guaranteed there would be leftover clean water at the end of the cycle.

[@SkyeStorme]

Correct :)

[@vakalkas]

I'm thinking you could do a small loop around/feed back with a water bridge that takes preference in the tubes. So that a small amount will be readied to go in, once the valves switch around again.

[@pdmkdz]

Now I understood the priming lolol, I saw the 20 kg of water in that last pipe! Good catch :)

[@robinchwan]

you should get the mod that allows you to turn on and off the switches yourself instead of waiting for the little guys to do it. well not like i'm forcing you but i've noticed that whenever i want them to do something i have to go to yellow alert or the whole thing fails ( if it's something you need to deal with fast)

[@TheCorpsehatch]

You can get germ filled water if a Dupe just happens to have an accident in the polluted water supply.

[@SkyeStorme]

There are easy precautions you can take to make sure that doesn't happen :)

[@TheCorpsehatch]

@@SkyeStorme It was a wink wink nudge nudge for the next stream ;)

[@growlingoctopus]

@@TheCorpsehatch but didn't he already have that in the very first video in the series?

[@glennjanot8128]

Just a question. Did you add the clean water input because of the pipe between the reservoir and the bottom shutoff? Personally, I use a looped system that only requires a single liquid shutoff with a germ sensor

[@randomuser1093]

I use the infinite bathroom design, so how do I include it in the germ killing chamber?

[@Varatho]

So the point of this isn't to flush the input, it's to put a clean water buffer in the output because the germs don't die in the pipe. Is there a way to turn off the output of a reservoir automatically, without having to use a pipe & valve attached to it? Because it seems like you could make this even simpler if you could hook up a timer to the reservoir directly.

[@SkyeStorme]

Reservoir has no automation socket

[@UndoubtablySo]

fantastic solution Varatho, I wish I knew this sooner, the reservoir still takes input when there is a missing floor tile but doesn't output, I will go change my live build now and see if it works as expected edit: tested and working, thanks!

[@Varatho]

@@UndoubtablySo Did you use a door under it?

[@UndoubtablySo]

@@Varatho yes, sorry i thought this was the comment where u suggested it, it was u right?

@@UndoubtablySo I was just making sure it worked that easily, I haven't had time to test it yet myself.

[@Ayns.L14A]

OO two Skye vids Tuesday is a good day!!

[@jethrosantiago6683]

1:43-1:45 Can it handle against almost a billion germs?

[@SkyeStorme]

Yes it can :)

[@AlbreoX]

Since I started using germy water to wash hands and flush toilets in a closed-loop, I never have to worry about food poisoning ever again. Extra polluted water can go directly to plants, no germ spilled.

[@Thunderbird2935]

Hmm... mine isn't working. Does the chlorine room need to be a certain dimension? I have a small-ish 5x11 (interior dimension) room with only chlorine gas, over 1kg per "square" of pure chlorine, and yet the water in my liquid reservoir reduces its germ count very slowly. What am I doing wrong? I've triple checked the timers - they're all set right. And, my food-poisoned water only has about 300k germs in it at the start of a cycle, and about 290k after the cycle is done.

[@offirbaruch7895]

Works like a charm. Thanks!

[@LTL_king]

or you can just install a door under the tank. Open the door. No liquid comes out all germs stay in and get destroyed. No priming needed. Have multiple tanks on rotation. If you need 10K/s there's no time to wait on water to get cleaned. Even better way. Send all germ polluted water to reed fiber. Your gonna need it later. Need about 10tons of reed fiber to get started on insulation and it takes for ever to make. How do you get more water you ask. look around the map. There's enough water on the map in pockets to last you 200-400 cycles depending on dupe count. Probably around 15 dupes. After you've digged out all the water or a lot. Start working on an industrial brick. Have your ore refinement plastic production oil refinment. Industrial stuff. Oil to petroleum to power. Petroleum boiler turns petro into power, clean polluted water and co2. Co2 goes down to slicksters to make more oil. PWater to water to O2.

[@PassiveFIRE]

I have a massive slime biome around 95% of my base. Within the biome though I have a chlorine vent at 60deg. Is it worth just opening it up and letting the gas flood the area?

[@zynreqxzqx2397]

Why not put a mechanized airlock underneath the reservoir? If it's open, the reservoir can't output any liquid. Thus no need for the extra priming step, and the output step (that 'to make sure, only germ free water gets output' - since nothing can get out in the first place). It would even be two tiles smaller (you need to accommodate the extra tile of height though, but here it's not a problem). The airlock shouldn't destroy gas, since it can 'escape' into the tiles of the room. Or does it?

[@karlevans2024]

Do you have a way to ensure water is above 0 when using polluted ice in storage to cool for this set up? My sieve keeps breaking when it cleans -3 water and because clean water freezes.

[@SkyeStorme]

Use a temp sensor

[@Ayns.L14A]

Hi Skye, I was just wondering are you planning to play Anno 1800 at all??

[@TheFlakrav]

Nice vid, more little tutos like this please :-)

[@Syeal7]

So where is the water getting in contact with the chloride and thus killing the germs? Seems like all the pipes are isolated not open to the atmosphere inside the chloride gas room.

[@S_Black]

The reservoir interacts with the chlorine. Not very intuitive, but same with a lot of other things in the game

[@cameronmartel9578]

DUDE YES. Thank you!

[@G60003]

So how would you manage gremy water without chlorine? Besides just cleaning polluted water will the germs just die off. Or do is hopefully I get lucky and find some in my ice map. Or is there a research mechanical way ?

[@leexgx]

I find it's far easy to just use 4 or more tanks prime them up and use a water flow limiter to control the flow and nothing fancy is needed (more tanks you use you can just let it run with out a flow limiter)

[@solisto]

Skye, when I made a chlorine room to disinfect slime, the room was completely sealed, but I lost chlorine gas somehow. Does an air purifier or algae terrarium absorb chlorine?

[@SkyeStorme]

No .. but killing germs uses up a very small amount

[@solisto]

Skye Storme ok thanks. How do you recommend setting up a way to deal with slime lung, but also not get too much polluted oxygen in your chlorine room? I am at a point where I am basically surrounded by slime/slime lung, but I’m running low on chlorine. Edit: Also, do you have a Discord server?

[@Sandhammer]

Hey Skye great videos, would this work? If you fill the system with clean water first, and then pump out what u need then it will only pump back in until full and shut down automatically even if the fill cycle is still running, judge it right and you will get your max output? And not need the priming cycle? After the first fill as there's always clean water in the pipes?

[@Sandhammer]

With this system you can have as many reservoirs as you want in the methane room chained together. Lots of emergency clean water held germ free?

[@Sandhammer]

Is there anything stopping u using polluted water to cool your base, stop having so much standing polluted water?

[@SkyeStorme]

No that wouldn't work ... and my base doesn't need any more cooling atm :)

[@FyebriesRolandia]

Does it really have to be 100% chlorine? I was frustrated with the last 9.0 gr Oxygen on my own build. Especially because oxygen is lighter so it's rather above my gas pump's reach. And if i open the airlock to it, i risk another gas contamination

[@artur6280]

You can do this system more failproof by connecting you output pipe into prime input. So if you run out of water in the toilet system for some reason this system don't break.

[@truthseeker4291]

That's a good idea. You could branch the output up to the clean input. It would fill up with clean water, then disconnect the clean water input.

[@rcrhinehart66]

Would filling the chamber above the germ water with chlorine help things along?

[@SkyeStorme]

No .. has no effect :)

[@LTL_king]

Last video. Why are you cooling your hydrogen? It exists only to be burnt for power and destroyed. Contain all that heat in a 8x9 insulated tile box and send the hydrogen to a generator to get destroyed instantly deleting that heat away. Send your water up through the o2 preccoling it while your water goes into the Electrolyzer instantly deleting the heat. Take the pre cooled O2 which will probably be around 40-50c and send through a cold biome to cool off. Also if you use a smart battery and bridge mechanics. 1 hydrogen generator can run 2 elecrolyzers 2 pumps pulling o2 1 for random H and a liquid pump with leftover to use that power for the base. Have another setup running the same but have it power the water sieve cleaning the water. With leftover going to base. Or you can run 3 o2 pumps still with leftover.

[@flyingfish6903]

Is there a way to do it using a Germ Sensor and without priming it? I've been trying for an hour now and can't work it out.

[@mikkelnpetersen]

FINALLY a good "how to clean water of germs"

[@beltagy]

What if you seal your dirty water reservoir and fill it with chlorine, then just run it through your filter?

[@SkyeStorme]

Doesn't work

[@dark_noone9287]

I have a question. Does battery output also counts into wire wattage?

[@UndoubtablySo]

I believe batteries have basically unlimited wattage, but the wattage they output should only be the same as what your machines are drawing from it. If you are using heavy watt wires from your power generator/s to a transformer I believe it is best practice to also have the battery on the heavy watt side, though I am just assuming this , I haven't done the research.

[@SkyeStorme]

No it doesn't .. wattage on counts power users .. not power suppliers :)

@@SkyeStorme okay thanks

[@gammaray152]

its a great plastic free alternative but its not like plastic is that hard to get if you setup a glossy drecko farm early on.

This is better than anything you can make with plastic anyway

[@gammaray152]

@@SkyeStorme I'd have to disagree. a single liquid germ sensor linked to a single liquid shutoff can do same process for less power, less space, less refined metals less downtime and only 50 more plastics which isn't hard to get if you ranch glassy dreckos. which is why I always try to grab those dreckos early

I just boght the game and started it up. Somewhat near my starting point I've got an open space full of vacuum (some sort of geode I think since it's surrounded by metal). Is there a use for this or can I just open it up and let it fill up with air?

[@UndoubtablySo]

it may be challenging to make use of the vaccum since you probably cant use it without breaking it so instead I would say just treat it like you would an other carbon dioxide pocket, if you need to create a vaccum in the future you can do so using a liquid lock and a air pump

[@SkyeStorme]

Just open it up if you need the resources or space :)

[@SkyeStorme]

Muahahahaha ....

[@nakkihammeri]

That is nice system but its not the simppliest one. Better system is made from 4 liquid tanks, shutoff, and one element sensor and some chlorine where the tanks are located. Works with 3 tanks, but to be absolute safe I run it with 4.

[@Londrino]

Do you have a link to that method? I can't figure out how you would make that work.

[@nakkihammeri]

@@Londrino Cant find it. Will make a pic later. But the idea is to keep tanks full with automation so and the sensor is before the tanks in a overflow loop only when there is a newly poluted water from the toilets the shutoff opens and lets enough out to empty the overflow loop. Cleaning idea is that the tanks are always full and and when it moves to next tank its germ count will drop to 1/500th of the tank before. When the germ count is bellow 500 no germs will transfer to next tank

[@hairysticks74]

this helps me so much, thank you

[@SilencerGDA]

The simpler solution is to heat up water to the point of boiling and then cooling of steam. It should kill both the pollution and germs and its sort of resource free

[@pyranna2003]

Is it simpler though? You need to set up a boiler and something to cool it back to a useful temp

And it would still get done in a cycle to start again completely empty and cleaned the water everyday. You have 8. Think about that. Your system will run for like 3 seconds everyday. Two Thumbs up for design. But way over engineered for everyone who plays ONI. No one has 300 Dupes. So you've designed something that could turn 6 tons a day.
