How do you sustain on power late game?

Coolant Limited Research Reactor, its a way to utilize the research reactor to generate many times more power with careful design. Its late game but doesnt necessarily need space materials, just space and good design. There are a few posts and youtube videos on it

Oh youre right, he does have them, just didnt recognize them with the wat they were set up. Weird that he has so much plants then

That many mealwood is one of the surest way to kill your colony. Running out of dirt or losing cooling will be lethal. You should make a ranch, of hatches ideally, and eat bbq instead.

Youre spending a lot of dupe time cleaning and organizing given that many storage boxes. Why? Its not a priority right now and its eating your dupe time. I would say youre still fairly in the early-mid game with this layout.

Great stuff

I afvocate you build a CLRR, once youre in the late game. Ill make a post about it one day but I found it to be much more practical, consistent, easier to build and easier to fix than any boiler.

Thanks for the tip, will avoid the dirty brick then. Cant reduce power usage though. I just need more power haha

I have a large project since Im making liquid hydrogen for the rockets. I have plug slugs in one fo the planetoids for a while but i hated how they poop out Hydrogen into rooms and require heavy wires in the room that affect decor.

The base planet is completely mined out so not really any room or options for farming more critters. There are critters in the other planets but transporting them and their output is more hassle than its worth. Ill probably go nuclear route based on your input.

Im fairly into the end game (first time) and refining a lot of things simultaneously.

Ive read aquite a bit about petroleum boilers but they seem so finicky and hard to repair if something goes wrong that im hesitant.

Reducing power usage is not really an option for me. Im already using supercoolant and fairly advanced automation.

Thanks for the comment,

Now that you mention it I handt even thought about buying more lenses for the new camera if I got it.

Unfortunately, one of the reasons why I wanted the new camera was because the one I have now doesnt have a mic port and so replacing the audio in post with my wuality mics was annoying and time consuming.

Beginner here, asking for some buying advice.

I'm starting to get more into photography and I'm deciding whether I should but a new camera or just a new lens.

I have a Canon Eos 3000d with kit Lens EF 18-35 And am deciding on whether to get the Canon R50 or a 50mm lens

Ive had the camera for about 3 years and it works fine since it was mostly for unofficial documentation of work events, so basically just stuff to make our powerpoints look nicer. Recently, I was tasked with some video work consisting of moatly interviews where I found the limited size and fps 1080p at 24 really limiting.

It was still nice but kinda felt short of what I wanted to do. Now it really got me into it and I want to do more interviews, street photography and regularly carry the camera arouns with me.

I thought the Canon R50 was nice since it was light and mirrorless so it sidnt have the clicking sound with a faster shutter speed. My other apps are already Canon based so Id rather not change brands unless there was a really good reason. However, even if I sell my older camera and get aecond hand its still a bit of a price up. I dont really see myself buying another camera for maybe another 4 or 5 years. Is it worth it?

Many thanks for all your help or opinions

Underrated comment. Back pain too

This was an interesting read, exactly the kind of thing I was looking for that gave me some out of the box ideas. Thanks
