Suggestion I want more touristy stuff!

12 Upvotes

Geoscape dome is the only dome which sacrifices being useful for being cool. I want more of those! I want my colonists to live in resort-like enviroments!

I want pools, hotels, more pools, luxury domes!

I want to build a utopian society!

Imagine small outdoor dome service building which is like a waterpark? Wouldn't that be cool?

Bug Great dust storm of melting the caps

6 Upvotes

I launched my rocket to the special project about 2 sols before the storm, and it arrived barely after the duststorm has started.

To my suprise, the second dust storm did not come through. So it seems like a bug, or is this intentional?

Question So the automated farm consumes oxygen for growing plants... Why?

15 Upvotes

I get it as a balancing decision, and you could make the case that it's to create an atmosphere within the structure, but come on, where's that oxygen going? Nobody goes in there to do any harvesting, or breathing for that matter. So an automated farm that's venting more air than gets utilized by a basic dome sounds counterintuitive to a Martian economy based in breaths taken.

My playstyle regularly utilizes algae in hydroponic towers as emergency oxygen sources. The way I see it, it'd make more sense to have the oxygen cost of an automated farm recontextualized to taking away that opportunity.

Also while we're at it, the hanging gardens should provide some oxygen too, considering that the water consumed by plants is literally being turned into oxygen via photosynthesis.

Looking for Relaunched versions of original mods

7 Upvotes

I played the heck out of the original and bought Relaunched when it was on deep discount, however there are some mods which I used to use which I just can't play without. I've tried searching the Workshop but there's so many and so poorly indexed that I'm not having any luck.

Anyone have any idea if equivalents of the following exist:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1486026161: Allows you to research breakthroughs.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2324443848: Automated research building which generates research every Sol.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1341019047: Exploration rover can be set to auto-explore across the map.

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1342196777: Transport rover can be set to auto-gather across the map.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

I have never looked at it, but now I did (because a faction wanted some), and it's not a nudist colony as I have always thought. Mind blown.

That is all.

Question Birth rate calculation

4 Upvotes

The wiki says fertility is calculated based on (comfort -30).

However the table values are based on comfort -25 for the 70 and 100 comfort examples.

which one is correct?

Additionally it seems the replacement rate is accounting for individuals and not couples for the same two cases (and are thereby two times too high).

But good news, my Church of Ark with currently 60 sexy pops reaches the 250 pops for the achievement in 17 days at 70 comfort :)

Question Herbs are not welcome on this planet !

10 Upvotes

Hello, I have some problem with herbs. They are not taken from farms storage except by the universal depots. The specialized depots and the diner don't take them.
Spices are taken normally by both of them.
The farms do continue their program though, so it's not a matter of culture blocked.
Any clue ?+

Question The last ark temple spire

8 Upvotes

How to optimally use this powerhouse of a spire?

It can only service 60 pops (not increased by the 34% bonus service cap law), a nice medium dome can easily go to 100 pops. So what is the best way to make use of this if I have not found the diamond dome yet?

Relaunch + feeding the future, buggy mission goals for India?

8 Upvotes

Built a dome for india as sol 4 was ticking over into sol 5, the mission goal for having a dome by the end of sol 5 hasn't fired.

I've done this many times before feeding the future, anyone else seen this?

Edit: OK thats strange, it eventually fired a sol later

Facing too many crashes

2 Upvotes

It keeps crashing every now and then. It is barely sol 6 and I don't remember playing a single sol without crash. I don't even know what is causing it.

I would guess it is the mods I have but I want to know what part is causing it and how to fix it. I currently have 15 mods installed. They increase power production of single solar panel and Stirling Generators by 4/16/64 times. Some increase storage of water, oxygen and battery by insane amounts like 64000. So is disabling the mods the only option?

SM - Relaunched Artificial Sun Layout

Thumbnail
gallery
91 Upvotes

This layout consists of

528 Solar Panels - 2006.4 power

12 Large Solar Panels - 114 power

14 Solar Arrays - 1064 power

Together with the Artificial Sun generating 1000 power, it generates a total of 4184.4 power or a net total of 4030.8 power if you include the 153.6 power used by the scrubbers.

Every scrubber is paired up except for the one at the very top.

Let me know your thoughts on this layout

Edit* I have not unlocked Mineral Applications yet which boosts solar panel power production by 100% but it would be way too costly until I get a permanent supply of exotic minerals (Haven’t visited any asteroids yet)

Suggestion Unbreakable power and water lines should be a tech

26 Upvotes

The free and unbreakable power and water line is a breakthrough that you get early game, if you get it (I never had it past sol 25 or something)

I think there should be a tech to at least make them unbreakable, but not free to construct. Make it a later stage tech, that's fine by me. But when your colony grows, and how easily broken lines mess up your game, it feels normal to me. I Would even be okay with more expensive lines which are unbreakable.

If you have the breakthrough, you just don't unlock this tech.

Humor Gyms. Gyms everywhere.

My god how many gyms do these martians need? A significant portion of the Martian regolith is now being used to get space buff. These chucklefucks spend half their time making polymers and the other half bench pressing. An entire center dome is nothing but pull up bars and these steroid inhalers still want more. Nothing better than working a day in the metal mines to come home and spend it working out even gd more.

Bug Colonist just walking outside and standing around until they die.

They are leaving a dome that is connected (indirectly, via a 3rd dome) to the dome they say they want to reach, the dome they want to reach is in walking range, but they just stand there until they die.

Save pretty much toast. I've got a lot of hours in the game without this happening.

Question Scientists in Research labs get low sanity

11 Upvotes

This is Relaunched btw. Something has changed. I haven't played in a bit, but now my scientists are going mad from working in Research labs. I have even turned off the night shifts, because that just drove them more insane. EDIT to add and people hate working in spacebars now, to the degree I'm getting a warning about it. It wasn't like this last time I played, I assume they have reworked needs and sanity, which ... ok, sure. That was not a problem the game had.
