Oxygen Not Included: Planning.

Oxygen Not Included: Planning.

Last time, I survived to cycle 110. I could probably have stretched that and maybe recovered, but I'm calling it good. That's a lot more cycle than ever before.

Lessons learned:
-- Critters are great! Continue to have a ranch that supplies the dining hall and bedroom with nice decor.
-- Water from a cool steam vent is hot and will destroy everything unless properly chilled. Do this through a cold zone. Do not allow in water that is not cold.
-- Or oxygen. Hot O2 is bad.
-- A "box" of oxygen works well. Consider a "blue zone" of fantastic oxygen, and a purple zone of just OK oxygen. Like, don't stress out if the purple zone doesn't have good air, so long as there's generally some good air.
-- Turn mealwood into pickled mealwood, and don't let anyone eat any. Once they say they can't get food, you know you have an emergency.
-- Heat. Kills. Every fucking time
-- The Slime Lung is manageable. But, do try to keep it out, as that is easiest.
-- Space is vast. And I'm not sure what good is up there.
-- What lies beneath?

So, goals for next time:
-- Critters that supply eggs that we will EAT. Make those omlettes GO.
-- Go DOWN instead of UP. Figure out this oil business.
-- Get a cool steam vent operational. I will get one to water my plants.
-- Go to the far LEFT. What is over there?

So, that's what I want: omlettes, down, a cool steam vent that doesn't kill the colony, and get to the left. The opposite of what I normally do: down and to the left, with critters and infinite water.
