The real zen moment is when FJ realises he messed up the farm plots in an unnecessarily complicated setup, and would need to shift them all by a couple of tiles. That's like the worst thing that can really happen in ONI, but unless he edited the video for audience age concerns, there was not even a single swear word.
@@Sparhafoc I know right... I tend to yell at dupes when they go and do stupid mundane tasks that I never queued where I set a high priority and they run right by it ignoring it as if there was no priority or urgency to it...
It's worth reminding people, you can use the Farm Station to put Farmer's Touch on wild plants. With Superspecialized and Exuberant you can harvest every 9 cycles. I know that's not quite the zero work colony, but gardening is a fine hobby for dupes.
I could never bring myself to do that, it's just an efficiency thing. Wild Exuberant sleet wheat with Farmers touch gives 757 kcal a cycle Planted Exuberant sleet wheat with farmers touch gives 3,200 kcal a cycle You would need to apply 4 times the farmer touch to the wild stuff to get the same result as it takes longer to grow. So I figure if I'm going with fertilizer I will go with planted crops as the gains scale so much more.
If you click the Spacefarer module, there's a little pencil next to the name on the details card. That allows you to rename rockets. I'm 99% sure this is built into the game now and i read about it in the patch note at some point.
I believe I did this recently. You can definitely rename rockets. I'm positive of that. But it may need to be done by clicking on the platform they're on?
My last world I had a cool slush salt geyser just below my copper volcano. I put insulated tiles in a small box around the geyser and had conveyor rails run through the cold salt water to cool the copper. Sometimes this game can make things very convenient for you.
@@asureaskie The pwater is kinda dangerous to do that with, since it expels water at like 400ºC+ temperatures, the dirt formed will flash into sand and form a tile. Bad news.
You can feed it salt water?? I understand why they did the reactor the way they did, even though it doesn't really make much sense, but not taking damage from dirty or salty water is absurd even for ONI standards. I will have to ask on the forums whether the devs made this as a deliberate choice or it's just a fluke, but in any case I hope they change that cos' that is just plain wrong.
2 things I noticed: 1. Yes I read the names at the end :D 2. About this whole "casual" thing.... how do most of us play casual? well when we run into a problem we go to Francis and look how he solved the problem (or a similar one that can be used), so now when he has a problem, he does the normal "casual" Francis John thing... and asks himself! Problem solved :)
26:30 If I remember how the Pips work, they not only check how many plants are nearby but also check if the conditions for the new plant are met. That means, for example proper atmosphere, and particularly when planting waterweeds there should be already a layer of salt water :D
I thought so too (about needing a layer of salt water), but was then surprised to see the pips already planted the seeds in the top row. I swear mine wouldn't plant them until I added a layer of salt water. Strange.
Temperature is also checked as if it is too cold they wouldn't plant sleet wheat for me. Not sure if it is in general the max livable ranges that are checked and not individual growing range.
Great Video! When dismantling hydroponics farm for Glass, if you put a random tile on top of the hydroponics tile, the debris will fall out the bottom and not get stuck inside the glass. :)
I discovered while playing a few months ago that research reactors can use any water type, they spit out the salt/dirt (which instantly becomes sand) out to the bottom of the reactor. Also you can mix 3 of the water types on a single line without issue, using all 4 gives the low coolant warning temporally.
I know that it doesn't bother you as much as some, but if you want to keep debris from entombing itself in the glass tiles you can put a tile above it before deconstructing it and make sure the tile below it is empty. It kind of forces it to pop out lower and not entomb the material. Tip for any who care😀
@@candy-ass4915 Nice! That is pretty convenient. I used to cook dirt, but then often some debris would get entombed, so I started doing the manual airlock thing, but that is a bit tedious to do. Hmm.. since you can't copy the empty storage settings, now I'm thinking I will try the empty pipe command. I'm kinda thinking it might drop out as debris, but it's worth a try as the command can be mass-issued. Thanks for the tip!
@@Pancake_Nix It would drop as a bottle, which always forms a tile when the liquid solidifies. so: it would work! You simply need to make sure only 1kg is in each pipe segment.
You can just empty the farm tile to kick the glass up. Then it turns into a tile above and you can deconstruct the farm tile to get the metal ore back.
Feels weird being here under an hour from video upload, Love the videos, oni had always been slightly beyond me so its always fun watching someone who actually knows what they are doing playing the game
33:00 - A recent reddit post taught me you can make "solid flow valve" by just hooking the conveyor meter's automation ports together, and setting the desired flow rate as the limit.
My first time seeing a nuclear reactor melt down in an actual play through. No need to make such a complicated design for metering out enriched uranium, that's what the conveyor meters are for. I've suggested the glass trick a few times. I don't know if someone else has suggested it. If you like to keep the resources, you can empty storage on them and it'll create a tile *above* the farm tile. (A recent discovery I've been informed of)
@@Wurmloecher exactly, it makes a natural tile above, although if the dupe is standing below or next to the tile sometimes it comes out the wrong side, so you want to wall in the hydrophonics tile to make sure it comes out the top only.
Two tweaks you may look into: First, your reactors overheated because you put the water in line. If you split it you could still run the reactors water-starved. The only downside is the resulting steam / waste leaves at a higher temperature. Really neat for power generation, really awful if you need to cool it down. But if you meter things out or at least split the water pipe output, you should be able to run more reactors with the same amount of water. Second, I think you might be able to use Conveyor Meters with timer resets to drip-feed 1KG packets of uranium, possibly with less overheating automation machines. Other than that, still some impressive engineering for a "casual" playthrough :D.
I love those glass tiles! There is another way to generate those without buried object inside. Farm tiles are not essential. I just build a lot of pipes and limit pockets of glass to 1000g. Then just let them flow to the liquid bridge while using tje snip tool to keep them 1000g. When you will be emptying them, glass tiles will form out of bottles of molten glass. Yes. you ll end up with a pipe inside those natural tiles, but make that pipe radiant and you ll heve yourself a cooling/heating pipe already in tiles. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I do not know whether or not you need to have a tile under there to catch that bottle of molten glass. I just build it and haven't actually tested this. and you have 15 tiles of that natural goodness. I do everythig to get rid of those cracks. SO ANNOYING!! btw love your videos and i really enjoyed the card colony one!
In regards to the glass tiles, if instead of how you do it, you build the hydro tiles one below where you want the natural tiles, and then once the glass is in them, use 'empty contents', your dupes will come by and remove the 'liquid glass' from them, which then becomes a bottle on top, which then solidifies into a natural tile, without anything in it.
or just use a mod that allows us to build the tiles. i mean .. we can build rockets, nuclear reactors and massive automation. i'm sure we can build a small patch out of some dirt lol
Idea for the nuclear waste: Refill the water planet with it. Then, just for fun, bust open the compressed water storage under the ocean of nuclear waste... 😈
Funny thing, I made a nuclear waste collector last night too. But I went a totally different route. I made a rocket silo with a cooling jacket through the whole thing to condense and freeze all the nuclear fallout so it can be transported as a solid to pool of waste heated up with a liquid tepidizer. Sure it's not the most energy efficient, but I'm really sick of random blobs of waste leaking everywhere.
The inverse is also true for research reactors: maximizing the amount of enriched uranium but carefully limiting the water allows you to generate ungodly amounts of heat(40 turbines worth) You inject just enough water to keep the enriched uranium at 2000c (preventing a meltdown), which translates to superheated nuclear waste coming out at the same temperature, constituting the bulk of the heat produced. I think it goes by the name CLRR and there are a couple posts and videos floating around. Also it would be so cool of you could melt the ice asteroid with this.
Francis there is a good Mod for Pip Overlay, it tells you all details on why you can and cannot plant in certain spots as well as telling you that Pips won't plant anywhere with less than 200g of Gas Atmosphere
I'm sure someones mentioned it, but pips only plant if the plants are able to grow. So you need to have the right temperature, the right rads, the right pressure, the right atmosphere. Most plants have a minimum pressure. That's why they won't be planted in vacuum.
Also I wanted to say I enjoyed this episode a lot more than the strip mining asteroids. This felt classic Francis. Ridiculous builds and some mistakes were made. I would like to see you take advantage of the already existing new toys like the geo tuner and the upcoming bleachstone hopper.
When I make natural tiles I always put conductive wires, radiant pipes and radiant ducts in the tile before I make the tile. This allows the tiles to be cooled with no atmosphere. Once frozen the Co2 is quickly chilled to the right temperature. Granted I usually use water to make the sleet wheat tiles and copper for the bristleblossoms. I will try the glas tile method on my next play though to see if the glass method meltsradiant pipe. -5 is the sleet wheat grain frozen temp in co2 on my pc.
Ah yes, casually producing almost 700 tons of nuclear waste with 5 nuclear reactors and 3 of them casually having a meltdown, you know, casual stuff. XD
Been experimenting with rads. If a plant is exposed to a minimum of 4500 Rads you will get a mutated seed. I looked very carefully for the minimum because am trying to set up a rad green house as soon as I get steel, plastic and enriched uranium. Also you can rename the rockets, Klei added that feature a while back, no mod needed. just click on space-fare module and click the pencil icon to rename the rocket module.
For my mutated sleet wheat farm I just piped the supercoolant straight through the nuclear waste, much more efficient and you can use it after solidifying to stabilise temperature
Well that's not an ominous thumbnail and title XD For the Niobium volcano. moving the pitcher pump to the left side of the volcano would let it grab all of the liquid niobium and then you wouldn't have to worry at all about the left over potentially melting the ceramic side panels. Especially since you're using an induction plate to cool the autosweeper. Just a though if you ever go back to the Niobium volcano or find another metal volcano you want to auto-tame the same way
Hello! Simply to mention: the conveyor rail meter valve would have done the same in a more straight foward way (set to 1kg and reset every 20sec) Somehow nobody uses them but they are great!
conveyor meter is better than conveyor shutoff for cooling. Sending lower packet instead of 20kg will cool it better and conveyor shutoff has a chance to break.
Materials "escaping" when a tile is deconstructed diagonally is actually a recent fix. Instead of being placed on top of whatever tile is present, diagonal deconstruction will instead shunt the reclaimed material towards the Dupe doing the task!
About creating natural tiles with nuclear waste. Through it's high SHC it's perfect cook dirt tiles from algae, slime etc. Put the organic material on metal tiles. Run the nuclear waste through the metal tiles and you got dirt tiles.
re: the naphtha in your liquid lock boiling, that's because the inner blob of naphtha is in vacuum so it can't conduct heat anywhere if someone had dropped rock in the outer blob, it would have conducted heat to the air outside and not boiled the solution to this is to either only have one blob, or to thermally connect the two blobs with a tempshift or a wire bridge or whatever
"Well, on the bright side, it'll generate a whole bunch more nuclear waste!" - Fancis John, 2023 LOL! Next video idea - Francis plays ONI, but has to take a shot every time the gateway activates (or Rimworld, but takes a few shots every time a raid happens)!
Another simple way to get the rads you need for mutant sleet wheat is with wheez worts. It's not passive but a dreko ranch should give you enough to run domestic worts.
@47:55 The door dupe controls don't work on doors turned sideways. Possibly because the dupe is moving up and down, not left and right. You need to lock the door to keep dupes from using it.
Putting less water into the reactors does work. It has basically the opposite effect of what you've got going now with using less uranium. The more uranium in a reactor the faster the uranium heats up, and the temperature of the uranium inside of the reactor is calculated separately from the temperature of the reactor itself and the temperature of the waste is the same as the temperature of the uranium, so instead of getting cool waste that you don't really have to manage the temperatures of you get superheated waste. You can run 20+ turbines on the output of one reactor. I think people call them CLRRs, coolant limited research reactor. Definitely a bit tricky to run, they can break and melt down during saves so usually people set a timer to throw a couple of full packets into it prior to the cycle flipping over just to be safe. Definitely something you'll want to play around with in sandbox before instituting it into a game I think, but definitely worth playing with if you ever need a ton of power.
Pretty sure that water starved reactors have made sour gas boilers far less attractive. It's that perfect amount of power right in between the 10KW of a petroleum boiler and the 50KW+ of a sour gas boiler.
If I may make a request - see about abusing the somnium synthesizer. It’s the closest ONI has to making a Yunners (arguably possibly better with less war-crimey feeling)
It's funny. The Yunner build came up in a conversation today. I told a friend about Into The Breach, telling her about how I made one unit kill every other units in a map including my own in one turn to gain an achievement and she said it was a good thing she knew it was just a game because out of context it was weird. So I told her about some of the wonderful wonderful things you say when you play Rimworld.
@@KainYusanagi it’s actual productivity bonuses on top of stress reduction with no proximity limitation. So yeah it’s arguably better or worse considering the investment is higher. And if you have a couple or more frozen friends that roll poorly, plus no more use for scientists once all the research is done, finding volunteers who buff all your other dupes isn’t difficult.
1:02 I think upgrading this into a mirror image design (one Dropper/Steam Room setup to each side of the volcano) and increasing the tile height inside the steam rooms from two blocks to three would probably be a better idea.
if you build a bottle emptier on top of a door that constantly opens and closes, on top of a water tank with a pitcher pump and an auto-sweeper there... Won't that compress all of the water in bottles in one spot? Since the auto-sweeper would get the water, give it to the bottle emptier, and then the bottle emptier would stop working because the door opened and it would drop a bottle of water on the ground.
Another stupidly easy way to get heat for natural tiles is just building a steel tempshift plate in magma, deconstruct it and use the new move command. I use it to cook 5kg blobs of algae surrounded by metal tiles. Just have the dupe drop it on the metal and move it in a timely manner to another location that needs cooking to spread the heat.
I like to just turn the water planet into a automated food factory.. just put Nuke plant use the power to run everything, the rads for the launchers and to temperate the farms.. feed the ocean to the plants let them harvest themselves scoop up everything with sweepy and fire it off for cooking. If you plant some grubfruit you have some surplus sulfur to feed to sweetles or grubgrubs to get decent grubfruit and also just dump a bunch in every farm.. they'll speed up everything and the sweetles give you some sucrose for grubfruit preserve in rockets and you can make some high value food with the grubfruits. just go nuts on the numbers and you only have to worry about processing it fast enough
I think you did something similar with igneous rock in a previous playthrough that i've stolen for my own volcanos, but just ran it through an industrial sauna so you could get all the possible power out. Probably don't need it here though.
The Research Reactor can run with less than the 4kg/s it "wants". This just results in more heat being generated. Running three reactors on a single 10kg/s pipe is fine, so long as you meter it to 3.33 each and they will all run hot. If you don't meter and runa single pipe then the first two will take 4 each and those after will meltdown.
The niobium setting only makes sense because niobium forms a tile from very little mass compared to other liquid metal volcanoes. Basically for other liquid metal volcanoes, to use the same setting means that you are just adding more steps to get the same result. Though it does look cool so there is that.
3 Aquatuners doesn't feel casual enough for your cooling; I think you should build a system that can revert magma level temperatures to frozen in one cycle; you know, to handle your concerningly high increase in Nuclear meltdowns.
Use conduction panels instead. The deconstructed panel drops it's material at the input port, the tile appears in the center. as long as the input port is at the bottom, you don't get buried tiles with the metal, and it looks better.
good pipe splitting. to make it error proof have a liquid bridge split out three ways. It will always spit out equally on each pipe. Personally, I went the reactor route for the rads on farm tiles for food. Exuberant seeds + sweetle tending + fertilizer means you need like what... 5 crops? it's overkill.
would like to see you make a Zoo world, have every single animal on the world and have the ability to keep them all fed permanently without dupes bringing resources to them
I'm thinking the most logical variant to put on the remaining tiles would be the original one. This way you can eventually retrofit the whole setup with all Exuberants.

Wild Exuberant sleet wheat with Farmers touch gives 757 kcal a cycle

You don't need to desalinate or sieve water before sending it to a nuclear reactor. Reactors will take any water and steam distill it for you. :D

Ah yes, casually producing almost 700 tons of nuclear waste with 5 nuclear reactors and 3 of them casually having a meltdown, you know, casual stuff.
XD
Yeah, it's just 3 Mile Island all over again... and life goes on.

Been experimenting with rads. If a plant is exposed to a minimum of 4500 Rads you will get a mutated seed. I looked very carefully for the minimum because am trying to set up a rad green house as soon as I get steel, plastic and enriched uranium. Also you can rename the rockets, Klei added that feature a while back, no mod needed. just click on space-fare module and click the pencil icon to rename the rocket module.
FYI: you can feed any type of water into your nuclear reactor. Been feeding mine salt water for the last 1000 cycles, runs like a charm
Watching those reactors explode genuinely made laugh out loud😂
For my mutated sleet wheat farm I just piped the supercoolant straight through the nuclear waste, much more efficient and you can use it after solidifying to stabilise temperature
If you put a tile on top of the hydroponic farm, when you deconstruct it, it will let the metal fall down instead of burying it
Great episode, I really enjoyed it
Well that's not an ominous thumbnail and title XD
For the Niobium volcano. moving the pitcher pump to the left side of the volcano would let it grab all of the liquid niobium and then you wouldn't have to worry at all about the left over potentially melting the ceramic side panels. Especially since you're using an induction plate to cool the autosweeper. Just a though if you ever go back to the Niobium volcano or find another metal volcano you want to auto-tame the same way
Hello!
Simply to mention: the conveyor rail meter valve would have done the same in a more straight foward way (set to 1kg and reset every 20sec)
Somehow nobody uses them but they are great!
conveyor meter is better than conveyor shutoff for cooling. Sending lower packet instead of 20kg will cool it better and conveyor shutoff has a chance to break.
Materials "escaping" when a tile is deconstructed diagonally is actually a recent fix. Instead of being placed on top of whatever tile is present, diagonal deconstruction will instead shunt the reclaimed material towards the Dupe doing the task!
That is a great QoL feature, makes way more sense as well.
About creating natural tiles with nuclear waste. Through it's high SHC it's perfect cook dirt tiles from algae, slime etc. Put the organic material on metal tiles. Run the nuclear waste through the metal tiles and you got dirt tiles.
And no hidden materials this way. In case you want to redo your water weed tiles. You seem to have more than enough hot nuclear waste.
Wonder what would happen if they ever added combustion to the sumulation? There are a lot of pure oxygen environments in ONI.
Glass makes it so much easier, best thing I had ever discovered.
Don't quote me on it but I'm pretty sure Luma Plays first discovered.
re: the naphtha in your liquid lock boiling, that's because the inner blob of naphtha is in vacuum so it can't conduct heat anywhere
if someone had dropped rock in the outer blob, it would have conducted heat to the air outside and not boiled
the solution to this is to either only have one blob, or to thermally connect the two blobs with a tempshift or a wire bridge or whatever
Passive nuclear farming
Sad noises no stripping planet today :(
Instead happy noises for excessively large build that isn't needed
@@telioty totally agree XD
"Their all a pretty much much of a muchness." 13:40 🤣
Seeing the rads from those four reactors was hilarious
Two reactor melt downs, ... Oh meh no big. Anyone else have that happen coloney over.
"Well, on the bright side, it'll generate a whole bunch more nuclear waste!" - Fancis John, 2023
LOL! Next video idea - Francis plays ONI, but has to take a shot every time the gateway activates (or Rimworld, but takes a few shots every time a raid happens)!
Another simple way to get the rads you need for mutant sleet wheat is with wheez worts. It's not passive but a dreko ranch should give you enough to run domestic worts.
@47:55 The door dupe controls don't work on doors turned sideways. Possibly because the dupe is moving up and down, not left and right. You need to lock the door to keep dupes from using it.
Putting less water into the reactors does work. It has basically the opposite effect of what you've got going now with using less uranium. The more uranium in a reactor the faster the uranium heats up, and the temperature of the uranium inside of the reactor is calculated separately from the temperature of the reactor itself and the temperature of the waste is the same as the temperature of the uranium, so instead of getting cool waste that you don't really have to manage the temperatures of you get superheated waste. You can run 20+ turbines on the output of one reactor. I think people call them CLRRs, coolant limited research reactor. Definitely a bit tricky to run, they can break and melt down during saves so usually people set a timer to throw a couple of full packets into it prior to the cycle flipping over just to be safe. Definitely something you'll want to play around with in sandbox before instituting it into a game I think, but definitely worth playing with if you ever need a ton of power.
Pretty sure that water starved reactors have made sour gas boilers far less attractive.
It's that perfect amount of power right in between the 10KW of a petroleum boiler and the 50KW+ of a sour gas boiler.
69 grams of glass per second, hmmm, so subtlety IS included
25kg of liquid glass into 36 hydroponics tiles, that is 694 grams each :)
0:31 my man Andy knows exactly what hes doing
If I may make a request - see about abusing the somnium synthesizer. It’s the closest ONI has to making a Yunners (arguably possibly better with less war-crimey feeling)
Yes yes. More yunners, yes
Arguably worse*
It's funny. The Yunner build came up in a conversation today. I told a friend about Into The Breach, telling her about how I made one unit kill every other units in a map including my own in one turn to gain an achievement and she said it was a good thing she knew it was just a game because out of context it was weird. So I told her about some of the wonderful wonderful things you say when you play Rimworld.
@@KainYusanagi it’s actual productivity bonuses on top of stress reduction with no proximity limitation. So yeah it’s arguably better or worse considering the investment is higher.
And if you have a couple or more frozen friends that roll poorly, plus no more use for scientists once all the research is done, finding volunteers who buff all your other dupes isn’t difficult.
@@UgatoSA "(arguably possibly better with less war-crimey feeling)" reads as "the less war-crimey feeling makes it better. Possibly."
Good job, Comrade Dyatlov..
We're not going to stop for stupidity - Francis John
1:02 I think upgrading this into a mirror image design (one Dropper/Steam Room setup to each side of the volcano) and increasing the tile height inside the steam rooms from two blocks to three would probably be a better idea.
if you build a bottle emptier on top of a door that constantly opens and closes, on top of a water tank with a pitcher pump and an auto-sweeper there... Won't that compress all of the water in bottles in one spot? Since the auto-sweeper would get the water, give it to the bottle emptier, and then the bottle emptier would stop working because the door opened and it would drop a bottle of water on the ground.
Another stupidly easy way to get heat for natural tiles is just building a steel tempshift plate in magma, deconstruct it and use the new move command. I use it to cook 5kg blobs of algae surrounded by metal tiles. Just have the dupe drop it on the metal and move it in a timely manner to another location that needs cooking to spread the heat.
I like to just turn the water planet into a automated food factory.. just put Nuke plant use the power to run everything, the rads for the launchers and to temperate the farms.. feed the ocean to the plants let them harvest themselves scoop up everything with sweepy and fire it off for cooking. If you plant some grubfruit you have some surplus sulfur to feed to sweetles or grubgrubs to get decent grubfruit and also just dump a bunch in every farm.. they'll speed up everything and the sweetles give you some sucrose for grubfruit preserve in rockets and you can make some high value food with the grubfruits. just go nuts on the numbers and you only have to worry about processing it fast enough
pips read needed conditions for plants to grow. IF conditions not met pip wont plant.
50 minutes, oh yes!
I think you did something similar with igneous rock in a previous playthrough that i've stolen for my own volcanos, but just ran it through an industrial sauna so you could get all the possible power out. Probably don't need it here though.
The Research Reactor can run with less than the 4kg/s it "wants". This just results in more heat being generated. Running three reactors on a single 10kg/s pipe is fine, so long as you meter it to 3.33 each and they will all run hot. If you don't meter and runa single pipe then the first two will take 4 each and those after will meltdown.
You are a great person Francis !
Edit : and I love you for that !!
The niobium setting only makes sense because niobium forms a tile from very little mass compared to other liquid metal volcanoes. Basically for other liquid metal volcanoes, to use the same setting means that you are just adding more steps to get the same result. Though it does look cool so there is that.
i LOVE the green glow :D
3 Aquatuners doesn't feel casual enough for your cooling; I think you should build a system that can revert magma level temperatures to frozen in one cycle; you know, to handle your concerningly high increase in Nuclear meltdowns.
Use conduction panels instead. The deconstructed panel drops it's material at the input port, the tile appears in the center. as long as the input port is at the bottom, you don't get buried tiles with the metal, and it looks better.
good pipe splitting. to make it error proof have a liquid bridge split out three ways. It will always spit out equally on each pipe.
Personally, I went the reactor route for the rads on farm tiles for food. Exuberant seeds + sweetle tending + fertilizer means you need like what... 5 crops? it's overkill.
would like to see you make a Zoo world, have every single animal on the world and have the ability to keep them all fed permanently without dupes bringing resources to them
Awsome video!
Some people just want to watch the world turn green.
*burn not turn green
You can put the cooling loop on the niobium planet into the ceramic tiles. Chilled radiant pipes should keep them good forever!
Can't wait for more content!
I can’t wait to see the Netflix movie about your nuclear reactors. 😢😢😢😂😂😂
Build the hydroponic tiles below your location (or above) then extract contents!
Never thought of using the move command that way.
Guess that's why I never come up with anything new and exciting in ONI
Ah yes, the casual infinite pool of nuclear waste, along with radioactive farms and exploding reactors. Maybe you need more Sunday's like that.
I'm thinking the most logical variant to put on the remaining tiles would be the original one. This way you can eventually retrofit the whole setup with all Exuberants.
The Pips wont plant in a vacuum because they check the seeds atmosphere requirements I believe.
