Ellilea Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I haven't played ONI in a while, but I'm slowly warming up for a return I never check any ready setups or solutions other folks come up with cause that's huge part of the fun for me to figure stuff out myself. But to be able to really do it right I'd love to have a list of all the counter-intuitive mechanics I just wouldn't guess. What I mean is stuff like: 1. What machines delete heat (like water sieve etc.) 2. What deletes gases (like doors do, I'd have never guessed that myself) Any other unusual interactions etc. that might get in the way of trying to logic around things. I know I had some issues setting up a closed Hydrogen contraption, despite the electrolyzers producing, in theory, more hydrogen than the generators needed and having a pipe sucking out excess gasses. I feel like I might've gotten trolled by some such trick. When I return, I'd love to know such ins and outs so I can plan accordingly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellilea Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Thanks, I'll take a look. Not a fan of using exploits to make things easier, but knowing about them is probably the only way to truly understand what's happening and why sometimes.

Sasza22 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 The critter dropoff being used to wrangle critters that are normally unwranlable like shinebugs or slicksters is definetly counter intuitive and something good to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pan_opticon Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Liquid cannot be displaced by gas even of the much higher pressure. Tempshift plates work diagonally too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenIsAGeek Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Counter intuitive... Hmmm.. How about the fact that the most efficient oxygen production in the game is to use Algae Terrariums ... and don't clean up the polluted water bottles after. Just put a deoderizer near the bottles to turn polluted O2 into clean O2. Yes, I'm aware that you were looking for heat deletion or actual bugs, but.. when I was originally playing around with this, it really blew my mind.

Of course I never played before they produced pwater, and never realised how good they are until your post but, um... LOOK OVER THERE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellilea Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 Some interesting bits here, thanks folks! When it comes to door gas deletion I was more baffled by gases disappearing sometimes never had a problem with too much gas, i liked building max density gas boxes and sorting them out before reservoirs were a thing :9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellilea Posted April 4, 2019 Author Share Posted April 4, 2019 I don't know, I might be weird but I just don't feel satisfaction when using exploits at all :< I remember someone told me I was being a noob for not using a noria exploit in ANNO 1404 for my achievement run but it just wouldn't feel like an achievement to me if I did lol. I used the 20kg plastic vents for my swag ONI gas boxes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neotuck Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 Nothing wrong with that, being a beta released game is the only reason I allow myself to use exploits I even document and submit bug reports whenever I find a new exploit so the devs can decide if they need to fix it or not For example: I had discovered a stiffed plant will still grow so I was able to make berry and mushroom farms that didn't use any water/slime simply by having a light automated with a clock, I submitted the bug with screenshots and the exploit was fixed in a patch a week later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to rationalize your choices to others -- its your sandbox. Also, others shouldn't claim you're "wrong" for not using a particular method.

Sadly, there's no such thing as pressure in this game, And they just call density "pressure". While pressure means the force applied to a surface per unit area ... there's no force in this game.

You might be right however, when I joined it was before terrariums produced PW Ever since the change the only mention of terrariums that I saw in the forums was people being disappointed with the change and declared it a useless building or a "noob trap" So what ever post you are thinking about (If it's before my time) most likely dealt with terrariums that didn't produce PW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
