new player feedback and how is my bubblebase

[stasswonk]

hey there!

i was looking for some new player sticky, so plz move me if this has a better spot elsewhere-
what a great game. i am kinda veteran gamer and the game immediatly reminded me of c64 classic games like pipe mania or super pipeline, boulder dash. i always loved to get my hands dirty^^ yet it also has a vast world to explore and with the automaton branch, it reminds me of lego technics or fisher tech.

played fallout shelter a bit, but oh boy, this owns them hard.

feedback: i wish you could cycle the build menue with tab-key. 70% of the time i am in the build menue, game speed is much easier to handle. global storage container settings. mostly i do sweep only containers, but if i lack ressources, i do gimme all special ones. as i was in transition to move out of the bubble, i had an all organic container, 7 prio. it just expanded all to all organics...but it is partly what i love about this game.

i decided not to do sandbox or debug, but just play trail and error. heat management gave me the hardest time. i even checked you tube and everybody was like "hey, get abmysalite!". they should take these outdated vids of

 

anyway, i carefully expanded this time and would appreciate some feedback. possible traps i´d run in with my base design, obvious noob wrong doings and so on. currently i plan to set up exo suits stations and kill my algea dependency.

i am thinking of pumping the upper right water supply to the upper left and set up my exo suit base where the upper right water pocket had been

 

thx for the great game&have a good time

edit
(since it doesn´t show on the ss) cycle 70, 8 (mostly) happy guys

Nice map...

One of my maps spawns with a damn steam geyser just next to my home.

Think how hot it is.

I have to find an AETN.

AETN won't help you cool down geyser, even cold steam producing 1kg/s to cool down 110C to 30C you need 200580 kDtu of energy every cycle. You need 2500 AETN, don't waste your time

8 dupes in early game, OMG. Let's see few more cycles when you run out of water and coal, your dupes can't breathe because you dig all available algae and all of them possess lung bacterias and your crops die because of overheating and/or lack of dirt

Tens of Mealwood, just NO, run for berries and mushrooms ASAP, mealwood eat precious dirt. Also no doors on farm and potential farm is too big, so Farm Station make no sense, as it won't give boost to your plants. Also it's dangerous to have Farm Station without reliable dirt production. I said production, not digging.

Run that base into the ground.  Die of heat death, or starvation, or accidental flooding, and do it differently next time.  You win when your bases start dying of lag instead.

Your first base is definitely better than my first base. I ran out of food so fast back then. That was such early alpha I don't even know how farming worked back then. It was even before agricultural update.
