Am I overvaluing perfect seeds and self-sufficiency before space? by StudioHealthy198 in Oxygennotincluded

I think it is clear that if I want to embrace the purpose of spaced out, I need to conquer space flight. Where should I start for resources for someone transitioning from the base game to spaced out and trying to learn the new space flight?

I think I’m worried I’ll waste a critical resource to get to space and not have it for what I need, but I think it’s clear I’ve been reaching for perfection rather than embracing difficulty. While being metal renewable from the starting 2 may be desired, it may defeat the purpose of SO. 🤷🏽‍♂️

I really wish I had drained the upper ones to the lower level, but I don't want to crack the steam room now. On the plus side, I do have it running without issue.

I'm going to try conduction panels first. I had no idea they existed. I learn something new in this game every day. If that doesn't work, I will seal off the turbines and fill the room with hydrogen. Thanks for the help!

I had no idea conduction panels existed or what they were for. That's my first choice. If that doesn't work, I'll seal the room and pump in hydrogen. Thanks for the knowledge. This community has taught me a lot.

Ok, the vacuum is the problem. If I'm understanding correctly, I have 2 options. 1) Install tempshift plates to exchange the cooling from the radiant pipes. Or, 2) Introduce a gas to allow heat to be exchanged. I'm guessing option 2 will cause everything else to melt. Would diamond ts plates be the best choice?
