Germs Polluted Germs !! Now that I got your attention, Let me tell you of an interesting way to use the cyclical water flow process with an overflow mechanism. Instead of using the liquid pipe element sensor to direct water, you can simply use a liquid bridge in a T-junction. So suppose there is a straight liquid pipe and a liquid bridge with its inlet connected to the straight pipe anywhere so as to make a T-junction, the water in the pipe will first flow into the bridge than continuing into the straight pipe because it considers the bridge inlet as a "water receptacle" and prioritizes the flow there. Only when the "bridge arm" is full, will water continue straight (overflow). This method doesn't need any valves or automation. Cheers !! Keep duplicating !!
But then this wouldn't be using Automation! LOL. But I concur; understanding the flow dynamics of the pipe components has several elegant applications, I've found. From controlling flow priorities, overflows, to low-power element filters, you can do a lot knowing how this works.
My favorite challenge so far, really gets the creative juices flowing! I feel like the challenge should require all dupes not to even need to get out of bed in the end. XD
I like to get on a mushroom farm as early as possible. It saves on the water and power that the microbe musher eats up, and it looks like you've got an absolute abundance of slime right below you. It also gives better quality food than mealwood, so less stress for your dupes.
I think its just a 'challenge' because he unlocked all the research and dupe jobs, vs playing it out until he has all of that. Currently, my biggest challenge is that by the time i've unlocked everything, i'm about out of water and the base is near collapse.
Yeah, the research trees have gotten so deep that you really can't just blitz through them like we used to. We have to be a lot more strategic about what we research and when, and have to plan for longer-term colony survival first, find geysers etc, before the research is done. It's really just a matter of patience and designing in phases based on when you can unlock things.
It does make sense that the piping will begin to look a bit overwhelming I suppose.. It's basically going circuit board using liquid/gas instead of electrons
Looking forward to seeing you explore the possibility of using space as a way to cool stuff :) i tossed a 500c hydrogen vent inside a cube made of bunker doors, with mafic rock walls and diamond temp shift plates around, and the quick results were not too shabby, and definitely not as clunky as using the silly nullfiers. For now, that is... with the fertilizer+natg power loop completely wrecked, we may be starving a bit for power, and complex, power hungry cooling loops might not be as viable as they were. If it works as well as it seems, space and radiant pipes might be a solution for a lot of heat issues.
Brothgar at some point put your dupes on exosuit engineer. When a duplicant gain mastery of a job, they keep the traits (in this case exosuit running) when switching jobs. Keep in mind they also keep decor and food expectations
I saw my comment! ✌ You could kill germs in PWater by using it as a coolant and then send it to the Water Sieve, not only that you killed the germs but you also lowered the Water's Temperature.
I think you see it not the right way. The movie itself is pretty poor quality. It had shallow characters, main characters MEANT to relate to everyone and lazy animation. However, they spent a lot of money on the songs. Ok, you know the movie zootopia right? If the characters weren't animals, would it change a lot to the plot? Yes it would, the plot has everything to do with them being animals. If sing didn't have animals? How many plot points and jokes would be nullafied? I think the amount can be counted on one hand. I'd rate the movie a 5/10
Lex Bosch well yes . but I see everything like a story . and that movie told an good one . those songs avrhe enda were a great climax to it too . everyone got to win and solve all the problems they needed the money for without actually needing it . while it sure could have been better and I got a little .. "Meh" for a little bit while watching it . the songs at the end are beautiful not only cause of the quality . but because of what they mean to all of the characters , because of what we see every character achieve or pass through at every song
Lex Bosch I’m just 18 with the soul of a 7 year old and the knowledge of a 25 year old . XD I do know know at what you are interested in , but i always think of realty being too “real “ I prefer more to do other things , such as seeing movies/anime/gameplays ext. I am even writing a book , I think it is going to be a good one too . It is what I always was thinking of when I didn’t want to be bored since ... we’ll forever , it is just that now that I am trying to write it down
To clean some spaghetti.. Water comes down and to the left, polluted water goes up to the right. Then you use less bridges and have some space to reroute pipes if needed. To clean some polluted oxygen.. Did you put a compost pile for the polluted dirt from the water sieves or an air deodorizer next to where the polluted dirt is stored? If you close the room you store polluted dirt in and put a couple of deororizers you get free oxygen! Slime can be contained without chlorine if enough air pressure is built. I haven't tried yet to kill food poisoning germs with pressure...
Brothgar you really should think about making a clean water compactor so you can store any amount of water you want. I did something similar with the polluted water from my toilets and the algae farm. I built 3 coal generators right above my algae plants and then let the co2 fall through some airbreathing tiles all the polluted water feeds a water sieve right under the algae farm and then that gets cleaned and sent to the toilets. I have 1 mechatronic arm that feeds all 3 coal generators. The water compactor is a little different when you use it without power. Formula is liquid sensor 500kg+ buffer 1s buffer 2s buffer 4s filter 6sec and that moves the water through to a 2x2 room with a liquid pump that moves polluted water wherever you need it. Water compactor will really help with your flooding issue I think. Have you also thought about putting a liquid vent 1 square below your manual pump in the food processing area so it doesn't eventually flood? It will save you some extra space.
Before you start filling your clean water reservoir, you may want to include a hydrosensor within the tank that will prevent overflows. This was an issue that I had in a recent base, where I tried to clean too much water for the size of my tank. Are you able to feed your coal generator and terrariums from the same sweeper? Is there a way to set your food storage, in such a way that you can store your food in a closed room full of chlorine or carbon dioxide, and then have a single powered refrigerator in your mess hall that is kept stocked with a sweeper? I suppose an issue might come in the form of food that's left on the conveyor line, waiting to be placed in the cold refrigerator, unless there's a smart refrigerator that can disable the food retrieval automation, and somehow cycle the waiting food back into storage. I might be completely wrong in this idea, but I'll experiment with it later tonight. Also, do you plan to incorporate any form of temperature control via radiators, as you had in your last base? Even if you can't access a cold biome now, having the groundwork done now should make the build process much more simple, especially since you haven't really started on gas lines yet.
I don't understand half of what's going on and I played ONI up until the agriculture patch xd still enjoyable to watch, wish he explained things a bit more as he does them tho
I want to suggest that you pick an outro song that plays for a few seconds as you end your videos. It could make for a nice wrap up. I enjoy your videos.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE IN/OUT PORTS ON YOUR BRIDGES!!!! I've spent so much time yelling at my screen about how systems aren't working because you've got them flipped the wrong way
Can you make this music a bit more quiet? because I can't here you over it. As someone who listens to violins and jazz music mostly it's really disruptive sounding to me. ..oh it's just an intro song?

I did not know that trick! This will greatly simplify future bases' plumbing. Thank you :)
just do it and send a pic link because i can imagine what your saying but it sounds interesting
This is a simple loop for the restroom, with just a dump for the overflow.

That is actually very helpful.
MEEP HYPE !!!
Just thought, you should really work toward smooth hatches for smelting your metal. Seems more automated than the metal refinery to me.
ARG!! I didn't notice how rare they are before you pointed it out, now I'm obsessed with finding a Meep for my base.
I've always wanted to see a fully automated base, thanks man !
I would honestly watch this series unedited for the most part, so I can better understand all the automation systems you put in place
Loving this series Brothgar ! it's cool to watch and instructional at the same time :)
Learned a lot from these videos , thank you ! MOAR!
awesome video. This challenge looks a lot more fun and you are enjoying it more.
My favorite challenge so far, really gets the creative juices flowing! I feel like the challenge should require all dupes not to even need to get out of bed in the end. XD

This is turning out to be an interesting challange real quickly
Be sure to click "allow manual use" on you loaders and unloaders for food. so that way if you power goes down, your dupes can still eat
enjoying the music added in
I feel like this is less of a challenge and just the next level of skill. Which is still awesome.
I think its just a 'challenge' because he unlocked all the research and dupe jobs, vs playing it out until he has all of that.

Plays the game more than most... cant remember the sinks in medicine classic brothgar. Lol
MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
finally and how long have we been waiting
One episode without him hellish pain
More videos please !!¨¨ this serie is just so good
The best way to not worry about germs and be truly automated is to get rid of the duplicants and replace them with robots, like robo-duplicants.
Auto freezing meal lice! Niiice! If only there was an autocooker you could have ready meals delivered! XD
Good call on not making the spaghetti videos haha
It does make sense that the piping will begin to look a bit overwhelming I suppose.. It's basically going circuit board using liquid/gas instead of electrons
Make room for Transit Tubes. Unless replacing your Ladders/Fire polls is going to be good enough.

Really good video!+1 Like
God forbid that dupes do anything. We're building dupe vacation home here.
Um brothgor if pipes/wires are in view does it reduce decor?
I saw my comment! ✌

Ever saw the muvie sing ??
THe songs at the end of that muvie are just AMAZING !!!
i hear those most of the time

Lefteris Mplanas i am not sure if you're acting like a young person or are one.

That little hatch will work better on a Ranch.
You'll need a lot more terrariums if you are going to consume all the CO2 from a coal generator. They only eat 0.3g/s and the generator produces 20g/s

I think maybe 1 loader can work for multiple sweepers as long it is in range of one sweeper

couldn't you turn the conveyer loaders on their side as well as the receiving ends to allow you to grow that last mealwood plant?
I don't understand half of what's going on and I played ONI up until the agriculture patch xd still enjoyable to watch, wish he explained things a bit more as he does them tho
Nice music in the backround.
You need auto sweepers to pick up the cooked food and store it or the food will just lie on the floor in the Oxygen-rich zone of the kitchen and rot
Do you never look at the heat overlay. or do you do it when you're not recording? I am always looking at that and germs etc.
I want to suggest that you pick an outro song that plays for a few seconds as you end your videos. It could make for a nice wrap up. I enjoy your videos.
All I’ve got to do is dig that
AAAAAAAHHHHHHH TOO MUCH
Brothgar, they nerfed NGAS fertiliser loop
Good luck to find new ways
Use the metal refinery to kill the germs with heat
Where is part 1?
*Meep has arisen*
What seed are u using.
What battery holds the most power and the most effective way to store power?
smart battery and smart battery
One day the duplicants wont have to do anything but flick a switch and have there job done for them
all they'll have to do really is get back massages and take showers
That's the dream.
MOAR!!!
Brothgar my man do me, and by extension the rest of your viewer base , a favor and CROP THE TOP OF VIDEO!
Nice :)
ITS GONNA BE MEEP!!

I dont even play or own this game. Why do i find is so enjoyable to wach it you play it ? Not realy sure.
I WAS ON VIDEO IM FAMOUS XD
LONG LADDERS ARE BAD!
try tnhis with ... S-FRZ-1257751679-9G .in the most current update ....
hi, im early, it's rare I guess???
Can you make this music a bit more quiet? because I can't here you over it. As someone who listens to violins and jazz music mostly it's really disruptive sounding to me.
..oh it's just an intro song?
Hey brothgar, Play Soul Knight on Mobile!
Sorry but i cant handle cuts every 30 seconds. :-(
Not FIRST
Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep
You might want to set a cycle limit, so that you have a goal to be fully autonomous by X cycle and you aren't just playing the game
Revon The Black Cat no
third?
"the"4th first" , "the"first 2ed" or "the the 1st 3ed"
we will see... but unfortunately, I will not be here for a week so it will be hard to track down... I WILL BE BACK!
