thatWheatley Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 I've looked at the wiki, watched a large number of pip tutorial vidoes, and scoured google for an answer, but I'm drawing a blank. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong, but my pips have only planted one acorn in roughly 10 cycles. Can any of you please tell me what mistake I'm making? I really want my wild aborn farm to start going. There are no plants to the left or right of the room, just storage bins (left) and massive amounts of algae (right). Thank you!

psusi Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 You have plants both above and below. Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/114752-please-help-i-cant-get-my-pips-to-plant/#findComment-1296417 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kumu Posted January 3, 2020 Share Posted January 3, 2020 The plants above aren't the problem, but the plants in the bedrooms are. If you remove those potted plants, the pips will get to work. Pips look 8 tiles below them, 4 up, 5 right, 6 left. https://oxygennotincluded.gamepedia.com/File:ONI_Pip.PNG Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/114752-please-help-i-cant-get-my-pips-to-plant/#findComment-1296427 Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatWheatley Posted January 3, 2020 Author Share Posted January 3, 2020 Oh god. I didn't think potted decor plants would interfere with pips. Thanks for the clarification!

nakomaru Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 The precise rule is no more than 2 other plants in a square 6 left, 6 down, 5 right, 5 up from the tile. Since this checks only the tiles the plants occupy, the vertical distance can be from 7 to 9 tiles minimum distance depending on the size of the plant.

Stoned Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 But the deco plants seem to be 6 tiles away? When no plants are in the way, what usually causes trouble for me are - pips are not mature yet - wrong atmosphere - wrong temperature I think they will only plant if the plant can survive. And they can be quite slow to do so.

Jep it is simpler and the Clustering is the same (1 tile between each plant min). just with far less hassle. (well its worse if you do the 3 plant clustering with 7% less tile Efficiency but the reduced hassle is worth it for me) Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/114752-please-help-i-cant-get-my-pips-to-plant/#findComment-1297248 Share on other sites More sharing options...
