For water, you need to upgrade their bathrooms as soon as possible. Then you should make a chlorine room of at least 16x4 in size with a liquid lock or use the area that has the chlorine volcano. If you use rust for oxygen, you can send the chlorine to such a room. The setup: Build a liquid storage in there to bring in your polluted water from the location where you send your toilet output into. After the liquid storage, build a water sieve and convert to clean water with germs. then build a second liquid storage for that. After the second liquid storage, build a metal refinery. Use the metal refinery for your refined metal needs and it will help with germ killing. Output from the metal refinery into a 3rd and final liquid storage for germ free water and make sure that it get full before sending it out to your clean water storage to make sure no germs are in the water.

Tip: The super computer uses enormous amounts of water, but the research has to be done so it's basically a sunk cost. Make the most of that water by running it through a metal refinery a few times until it's above 80C, the output it to a small insulated pool with a pitcher pump near your lab. The waste heat from refining gets deleted in the super computer.

If you put 2-4 of them on almost the lowest level (anything below it will become a co2 trap) and use airflow tiles on every level, you can get high oxygenation with very little algae consumption.

I think that bristle blossoms are pretty easy to just skip. I usually start transitioning to ranching as soon as I have everything else set up. Plumbed bathrooms, refrigerator, grill, that kind of stuff. This way even once my ranching is up, I have tons of backup dirt. This also means I can pretty much ignore germs as well. I also only really have one clean water storage. it makes it pretty easy because with me skipping the bristle blossoms I can ignore germs, and mixing the waters is a pretty good idea imo. It means you can just put the hot water into the cold water and then just cool the main tank.

@16:50 - The left side of the map was revealed when you used the large brush to reveal the right. The map is actually cyclic left to right, so really a cylinder rather than a plane :) You might also notice this if you build bunker doors all the way across the top, a dupe sometimes will build the one at the edge from the other side. Going further off topic, the different DLC asteroids are actually small rectangular areas of the same larger map. Sometimes you can see alerts from one asteroid in the fog of war on another. This is also why although you have more locations in the DLC, each one is smaller. Thanks for this video! What I love about this game is that there are so many different ways of doing things.

@@Magnet_MD I think it might just be an artifact of how a grid or 2D array is typically represented internally in a computer. Think of an 8x8 chess board. If you represent that as an array with two indices board(x,y), what really happens internally is a an array with a single index internalboard(n) where n goes from 1 to 64. The index n is then calculated as y*8+x (where 8 is the width of a row). So the first cell in the second row board(1,2) is really internalboard(9). With that it is easy to see how things tend to wrap around from one side to the other, but not from top to bottom. If x is set outside the right edge, say board(10,2) the index n = 2*8+10 = 26. That is the same cell as board(2,3) where n=8*3+2 = 26. So two steps off the right edge is equal to two steps into the left side, but one row lower.

@@Magnet_MD I think you're right, it depends on the context within the game. It makes sense that the debug tools are less careful than the actual game functionality. As long as it checks that it is not completely outside the array (n less than 1 or larger than maximum in my previous example), it will not cause any crashes etc. With the new DLC they now have to check against an arbitrary bounding box each time. I wonder how many places in the code they forgot to adjust for that :D

Lavatories create excess water which was the point of your video.. It creates more water than it uses although polluted, but can still be used for a lot of stuff. Also alot of what you do is inefficent and causes delays such as building around water, which makes you dupes take more time to get somewhere. Your outhouses have no wash basin, while you also have laters going directly into you water which could spread germs. Your base is built in a way that teaches bad habits. For players a washroom loop should be one of the first things done with plumbing, for morale, water, faster hygenie and less dupe work need.
@Magnet_MD3 жыл бұрын
The content I include in my videos is very deliberate, and the first couple of minutes of the video addresses a lot of what you've written. You have valid points, but you need to remember that this is aimed at new players and players seeking help for overcoming early/mid game problems. Everything you're talking about is something that is more appropriate for an advanced/experienced player, so, sure, if this video was about advanced tips for maximizing the game, this would all be appropriate. Since my intention is to give advice to new players, I disagree with most of what you're saying. New players often die because they run out of water or spend time managing systems that are not critical for their survival (water cleaning and managing germs, especially in the early game). I won't burden them with things that aren't ESSENTIAL for survival, so while this is not the 100% most optimal/efficient way to play, this is the way that I advise newer and struggling players to play. Ultimately once you understand a majority of the mechanics in the game, I think it's much more rewarding to add you own touches of optimization, and playing this game in your own style is what makes it great IMO. This game is not difficult enough that you're forced to worry about the ultra fine details in order to be successful. If you want to play in a hyper-optimized way, that's great, and I'm not going to judge it, but that's not the aim of this video (and most content I produce).
@trippydasnek42303 жыл бұрын
@@Magnet_MD Although you disagree, using lavatories early decreases dupe work time and the germ problem can be easily solved with many systems or just stay in a septic system. Outhouses take a while for dupes to empty which is a waste of precious early game time. It isn't essential for survival, but will make the game a lot easier. Keeping outhouses also isn't essential for survival either. Lavatories isn't even a fine detail it takes a cycle to setup and never have to touch again. Again a lot of this tutorial would teach bad habits that would need to be fixed later on. Basic plumbing and water wells are the most basic systems in the game.

I like watching oni videos from other creators, gives me more ideas! Thanks for the video, however one issue I have, you’re showing new players to automate geysers, but the way you showed them, they’ll overpressurize every now and then😅. I usually drop the pump a tile lower than the geyser, or you can drop the sensor one tile down and do Green if above 200-500 for example. The way it’s set in the video 1,100kg of water is gonna sit on the geyser per tile before the pump turns on. Edit: I went into my test map to make sure on this, and apparently this isn’t the case anymore. At least on the cool slush geyser I tested it on, it doesn’t overpressurize until 1,500kg. However in 3 tests I did an air pocket formed in the top right and left corners since if you allow the second tile to fill with water (1,100kg) it forms a whole tile if you only give it two tiles of space, so the hydro sensor got stuck in oxygen, I’d still move the hydro sensor down a tile to be safe 😁.

Yeah, either setup is fine. I usually set those down to about 150KG per tile or so (I may have made a mistake at one point in this video). I just want something to prove that it's worth spending the power to pump out, so one in either location is totally fine :)

Why would you say mush bars are terrible for water? Let's look at blossoms which also use water: 6 cycles for completion. 20kg per cycle used. Total 120 KG per 1600 kcal, or 2000kcal cooked. That's 16.66 kcal per kg water. Mush bars: 75kg water for 800 kcal. Or 1050 kcal cooked. That's 14 kcal per kg water. It's less efficient, sure. But it's not that horrible. And requires zero infrastructure. Now it does cost dirt as well, but dirt isn't exactly hard to come by. I've gone hundreds of cycles on it alone with zero problems. Including in the swamp start which has zero dirt (living off of compost/mud processing basically). And in the swamp start, Bog buckets require 40kg per cycle with a slightly longer number of cycles before it is fully grown. Which makes it consume far more water than mush bars actually. The main cost of mush bar production isn't that it's horribly inefficient on materials imo, but that you need to use a lot of dupe time creating + cooking them.

I’m now an adept of dropping a blob of Chlorine on my food deposit, instead of relying solely on carbon dioxide. This way I ensure it is germ free, regardless of my dupe practicing hygiene or not. And just a blob is enough, as chlorine will kill all germs of anything it touches (over time, although usually under a cycle). It seems about 200g of this gas is enough for the game to understand it is “under its effect”

Another good way to ensure you always have germ-free water, regardless of how messy it is, is - again - using chlorine. You will need at least 3 water tanks surrounded by some chlorine. Fill the first tank, then connect the second - the amount of germs from first to second will drop by well over 3/4 of its original count. Then with the second tank filled, you connect the third tank. Any leftover germs will be killed by the time this tank is full. Anything past that is for germ free liquid storage. And you must ensure you fill one tank at a time before leaving it run on its own, otherwise the germs will flow from one tank to another. Best of all? Energy-free (although requires metal and some research)

Quick side note on the automation, you can save the automation switch if you select the direction your dups can or cannot enter, by using the controls from the door itself - as opposed to the door status of “open/closed/auto” that requires a dupe to be nearby, the dupes direction controls do not, so you save refined metals this way, and can control who goes where - also handy if you want to enforce only dups wearing suits can cross certain areas.

First you should focus on getting locavore, carnivore, and super sustainable achievements for your colony. It looks like you have to build several maximum size stable rooms to ranch hatches or other critters to get meat. Pacu are also good source of food. Once you get locavore but not carnivore, you can begin using plants like wheezewort and thimble reed for their purposes. When it comes to water management for long term colony survival, I use the chlorine found either where natural balm lily plants grow or if there is the chloride volcano. Then you need to build your water sieve there to kill germs. Dumping the slime in there will kill its germs and make your food last very long and not spoil. After the water sieve comes the metal refinery to ensure the water comes out very clean but still warm. In the metal refinery, I set it to do 99 of all that is available and if you got enough lime and iron and making refined carbon, you can get steel in the second batch. Now you have a good water cleaning system that can handle dirty water especially from their toilets. The biggest problem is when they poop into the clean water...

doesnt the ice eventually run out? the water system depends on ice and i see no way how the ice itself can be renewable , unless the ice maker makes more ice than it consumes water.
@Magnet_MD3 жыл бұрын
It does eventually run out. By the time it runs out, I'd encourage you to not need cool water anymore (switch to ranching/barbecue instead of bristle blossoms), or to already have a separate cooling method established. I should have mentioned this in the video, sorry about that.

I’ve managed to make it without making any direct oxygen generators and relying on oxiferns (albeit it has NOT been a comfortable experience but it saved a lot on time and materials) but I’ve come to notice that in a game about oxygen not being included it’s 100000x harder to manage water, my colonists can survive on polluted air but the water is killing them

Handling Co2 can become really easy with a little understanding. My basic is that Co2 is heavier than oxygen, so make a pit down below where it can "sink" into, whilst keeping good oxygen up higher at your base.

A few year's late but what the hell... 9:31 you talk about food going to waste. I learned from Video Game Architect recently that you can build a carbon dioxide cage around a ration box which is a sterile environment. Keeps food indefinitely. To clarify, build a (2 tiles deep) box around the ration box, walls touching left-bottom-right hand sides of the ration box. Carbon dioxide settles in the "cage" and creates a sterile environment. Bit of a game changer for me.

Do you think you could just (I say ‘just’, but it’s a bit complicated for just a comment I guess) grab all of your water sources, unfiltered, and boil and cool it? I’m thinking of the aquatuner steam generator setup which just boils a bunch of random water stuffs and then pumps the water outputted from the steam generator into the aquatuner. You’d probably need a steel auto-sweeper to pick up salt from the salt water, but wouldn’t it work as long as the system has a constant input? Even then you can probably use filter gates and stuff to turn everything off. This kind of thing would also burn the germs! I say this in curiosity and suggestion, not in trying to be informative; I have no clue if this would actually work.

@Magnet_MD3 жыл бұрын
Oh pfft, and I guess I should give my overall thoughts here since you are struggling with that currently. My honest thoughts (at least in the base game) are that germs are not that big of a deal. Once you have renewable water, add handwashing stations for when your duplicants are leaving a bathroom, store your food in a cold place (refrigerator works just fine), use deodorizers to clean polluted oxygen, and produce oxygen from electrolyzers using water without any germs. That should cover a huge majority of the exposure cases. I still maintain that germs and sickness seem a lot more scary than they actually are, with the exception of Zombie Spores.
@DRY411S3 жыл бұрын
@@Magnet_MD thanks for the detail. Now I pick up this game again after a couple of years absence, I'm finding germs are not as big an issue as they seemed to be. They don't seem to be so debilitating on the dupes' work, and not as 'infectious'. Maybe that's my imagination though. However, I'd still like to know better how to deal with the airborne germs, especially Floral Scent and Slimelung. Slimelung seems to die in pure oxygen (and chlorine), but how do I stop it entering the main parts of the base once I've starting digging into swamp biome? I know I can store slime underwater in the biome to stop the germs, but the dupes seem to get covered and caryy it back home with them.
@Magnet_MD3 жыл бұрын
@@DRY411S Yep! I'll cover this in my video. The quick version of what I usually do is just carry the slimelung back to my base, place it into a storage bin and surround that with deodorizers. Some dupes will get slimelung occasionally, but it's not that much of an inconvenience. Note that I usually tailor my advice to newer players or people that are struggling to complete the game, and I just don't think this warrants a lot of attention. You can all-but ignore it once you move it to a central area.

It is only a threat to dupes with the allergic trait, who will sneeze and experience stress when exposed to it."_ : oxygennotincluded.gamepedia.com/Floral_Scents Just dig up those plants and you won't have any floral scents - it dies naturally. There's other ways to mitigate the effects like some tablets or something described on that wiki page. There's also a page on slimelung, but basically what he said. To keep it out of your base make dupes walk past a wash station on the way into your base & if you have to carry materials into your base that're covered in slimelung and you're not happy to wait for it to die off naturally there's an ore washer that can be used to clean germs off of things dupes are carrying IIRC - look it up on that wiki.

What should you do when you run out of ice to cool your water from the geysers? Thanks!
@Magnet_MD3 жыл бұрын
Your next step should be using aquatuners and steam turbines. The aquatuners will cool water that is passed into them, but they will also generate a lot of heat. So if you submerge them into some water, the heat from the aquatuner will eventually boil it, turn it into steam, and the steam turbines will cool the steam and turn it back into water (and put the water back into the chamber with the aquatuners). You could also reduce your dependency on cool water by switching into mostly/all barbecue. The only reason you should need cool water is either to set up cooling loops (using aquatuners and cold polluted water), or for bristle blossoms.

Great vid! Really helps. I've heard you can use germy water for bristle farming, so is there much use to purifying water when you can use germs for food and bathrooms? I was thinking so long as I grill the blossoms it should be fine? Maybe set up a co2/chlorine storage or just use refridgerators, plus a sink at the entrance to the grill to stop the spread? Or does that not work. I'm just starting to run low on the starter water and was going to start water sieving a bunch of the polluted pocket waters soon, but the heating and cooling system to kill germs seems to drain so much power and extra time for ice gathering.
@Magnet_MD3 жыл бұрын
I'm gonna eventually make a video about germs/medicine, but a lot of that video is going to be "germs aren't a huge deal, especially early in the game", so I wouldn't spend a ton of effort limiting germ exposure until you have renewable water. As for the water that is fed to the plants, they don't care about germs at all and will produce clean food. The use for sterilizing water (removing germs) is for when you eventually produce oxygen. Disease doesn't matter in the sense that a few sick dupes here and there won't be a huge problem (especially when you're trying to set up more vital systems), but using germy water to produce oxygen will no doubt expose every dupe every day, and that can be kinda bad when you have a bigger colony. If you want to use chlorine to clean your food, a lot of people like that solution, but I kinda don't... really get how it's set up in a convenient way. Agree that heating/cooling is not a great way to sterilize water, but depending on your sources, you ideally shouldn't need to do that. Try to capture some salt water geysers or regular water geysers, and you should have enough renewable water for oxygen. You can grab those cool steam vents if you need more, but yeah, that should be the only thing that you need for clean, non-germy water. Keeping the two water circuits separated is the easiest way to do it.
@Spamhard3 жыл бұрын
@@Magnet_MD That's super helpful, thank you for all your advice! I didn't bother with sinks early game like you suggested in another video and yeah, germs seemed like a mild inconvenience and not much else at that stage. I got a plumbed bathroom up pretty quickly which needed only a tiny bit of clean water to fill the pipes then it went on a looped system. Set up a sink at the 'kitchen' area (grill and egg cracker), and got the co2 storage next to it, and that seems to have cut down germs to almost nothing now. Tempted to set up a sweeper and rail to bring ingredients in and food out and only allow my cook into that room, but probably getting ahead of myself, lol! So yeah I think once I finish the current pool I have that's feeding my bristles, I'll switch over to the big germy water reservoirs I've got building up. I literally just found a slush geyser last night just above my base so I'll likely forgo the ice storage bin thing (mine were melting to completely empty and only providing about -10c for the pool, think I put too much water in ;P) and get in some pipe cooling instead, should probably get myself some ceramic first tho. I think I might be close to weaning myself off bristles already anyway because my hatch ranches be giving me a crap load of eggs, and I'm just looking at making a small batch of mushrooms potentially. Also got a natural gas geyser right next to my base too so I might have lucked out. I'm only at about cycle 70 tho so I'll leave the natural gas 'til I've found some steel and better materials. For now I'm running comfortably on coal with loads to spare. Oh, oh, one other question! Sorry! Do slush geysers need high end materials for the pipes, or can the more basic stuff still manage it's low temps? I can't quite work out the resistances for each pipe.
