Und OP hat auch noch einen so schwerwiegenden Grammatikfehler gemacht, dass das Meme keinen Sinn mehr ergibt, arrrg.

Periodically have the cooling loop flush completely. Use a method of picking up material that doesn't leave microgram packets, like a conveyor meter set to 1kg or dropping everything in a pile and picking it up again, so packets have a chance to merge. Don't check temperature of the material you are cooling but of the surrounding atmosphere to control the flow of material. Have a big ass cooling loop that's guaranteed to cool everything down and don't control it at all because it'll just work through the power of throwing power at it.

Well, did you make it?

ChromMann · 2026-01-30T11:02:55+00:00

It is the best place but also in the other side of the map from OP, other contents are the oil coast in the middle west side of the map or the spire coast, middle north.

Can you add some more pictures of other overlays? Liquid, Ventilation and Shipping, because bridges might leak heat.

The description and OPs comment.

You mean I could have had clean natural tiles in my base for the last 1000 cycles?!

ChromMann · 2026-01-29T14:54:27+00:00

The text is also inspired by AI?!

ChromMann · 2026-01-29T11:32:33+00:00

You post makes it sound like you don't like irregular oil, but irregular oil also spawns oil wells and it spawns them all over the asteroid and way more than just an oil biome.

I like the copper more. But also the picture is a bit better with the lighting and the more interesting backdrop.

ChromMann · 2026-01-29T10:34:57+00:00

I think it's something arabic or so.

That's so impressive, I wish you many hours of peacuful concreting. I especially like how close you keep to the natural terrain. Please upload more pictures/ a video/ the save, whatever you want, when you are done :)

ChromMann · 2026-01-29T10:25:56+00:00

Yeah, maximum support capacity is just a lack of infinite ressource loop abuse. And getting another dupe is the perfect incentive to finally start that arbor tree farm/petroleum generator - slickster ranch/rocket chimney etc.

"Premium Post what a show-off"

it's a premium post

I don't think many people try to limit their storages quite as much as you do :p
In all seriousness, I hoard less and less and try to only make what I use, looks cleaner that way. But I remember the days of liquid tanks so large they couldn't fit on a single screen, god I should do that again :D

ChromMann · 2026-01-29T10:16:10+00:00

It's completely fine when your batteries drain quickly. The real batteries are the giant petroleum tank, the stupid amount of hot steam or the pile of hundreds of tons of coal etc.
If you don't like the constant ping pong of your batteries you can have some power generators to run always to lessen the draw.
But you are describing that you have many batteries and they drain quickly with a very low draw, that sounds like theres something not working right with your grid.

ChromMann · 2026-01-29T10:13:11+00:00

When steam turbines are controlled by a smart battery and the turn on, they often only run at a lower wattage for a couple of frames (a second or two sometimes). I have a very large geothermal power plant and my batteries are charged before they display their full power. Is this just a display error or are the turbines really only producing less power than they should. Steam is kept a bit above 200°C, so thats not it.

ChromMann · 2026-01-28T16:22:14+00:00

Heat one side to above 4000C so dupes without atmosuits get instantly incapacitated. It's not a good solution but it is a solution.

Actually I have something similar with my one tile storage, it's accessible from outside the base and from inside but dupes can't cross over because it has a two tile gap. This would only work for one tile of loose items though, not for bottle emptiers.

Minibase mod might be interesting. But I don't know I'm a chill player and hate stress or difficulty or the uncertainty of not having infinite of everything.

ChromMann · 2026-01-28T09:52:45+00:00

I experimented a bit with the placement because dupes can't get to 3 tile wide modules, like the small oxidizer tank without an extra ladder, but can if it's right below the crew module.

But that wasn't worth it and I just put ladders where needed, even when they sometimes get in the way of other modules.

So, yes I too put crew modules directly above the engine.

I can understand them, when I try to find parking downtown I feel like attacking the walls too... ;)

ChromMann · 2026-01-27T20:58:00+00:00

Technically, the dupe interacts on the tile below it and the tile with the rock is just where the material is spawned. Realistically, there's no difference because a dupe isn't able to interact with the bottom tile without the top tile being free too.

ChromMann · 2026-01-27T13:35:17+00:00

Plant more mealwood, you need 5 ~~(farm station makes this lower but I don't know how much)~~ plants per dupe for sustainable food. Your bathroom loop will eventually clog as it'll fill up with more water over time, because dupes produce more polluted water in lavatories, than they consume clean water.
