If that tiny, it won't take long until someone posts an optimal build that will become "go to" for everyone. 34 minutes ago, babba said: Personally I like(d) the system how it was before, but I do understand the fun people have micromanaging rockets. From my point of view, as industrialist - I loved the old rocket system of charging and fueling rockets. If we can have both, that would be cool. I also liked the idea of supplying your rockets. If Klei expanded on that, then yeah, that would be most welcome. 5 minutes ago, mathmanican said: You're right. . Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mathmanican Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 48 minutes ago, suicide commando said: Hmm.. how about a toilet chair AS the control chair...:) This sounds completely reasonable. The rocket chair could take on any/all of the following: toilet/sink (no hand washing needed...) bed (regular cot) mess table oxygen diffuser/CO2 sucker (vents in oxygen from some storage facility / sucks out CO2/other gasses), though I think the oxylite option is a good one (though scrubbing CO2 in such a small space using huge machines needs to be dealt with). If the chair captured gasses (acted like a pump) but didn't suck in O2/PO2, that might work. The rocket could then expel all captured gasses upon landing (so they would be lost to space, or captured by the player who wants to design around this). With such a rocket chair, the inside of the cockpit can be decked out with things to improve life, rather than make sure your dupes don't go insane.... It definitely seems silly to have to expend this much effort, as this thread has shown, to just make sure your dupes can take care of basic needs. They are piloting a rocket. @Smife you are absolutely correct on this, IMO. I have no clue what the right fix is, but I'm sure we'll see something better in the near future.

suicide commando Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 @mathmanican I think that would be a bit too much, given that especially the larger cone has quite a bit of room for those things. Having even a single plug point to allow liquid/gas/solid/power in and out of the cone would dramatically improve the situation, as then will have a much easier time designing the insides. ( no hamster wheel saves you quite a bit of space, and having a way to pump liquids/gasses in/out means you can more easily recycle the contents to prepare for the next flight ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the thing, rooms are large so they can work in this early build, but they should be much smaller and not used for pools of pee and pitcher pumps.

Keeping in shape in 0g is almost as important as oxygen, or they get crushed by gravity once they land, and require extensive therapy (like waking up from a long coma).

Annoyingly, atmo suits are a little buggered because if you manually remove a suit from a dupe, they will keep the soiled debuff indefinitely. Oh, I also found out that if an ugly crier cries inside a suit, their tears get stored as well. How do you get dupes to build in there? I have put the build commands but it says unreachable....and if I assign crew, they go into the capsule but just stand there until they suffocate? Its weird because it did it my first game but not this time so I assume I did something I can;t remember last time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghkbrew Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 Just now, chemie said: I have put the build commands but it says unreachable Do you have a ladder up the side so dupes can reach the capsule? Do you have it set to allow everyone in? If so, it sounds like a glitch and I'd try reloading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suicide commando Posted November 26, 2020 Share Posted November 26, 2020 I think the 'Crew' selection means everybody that is selected will go into the rocket and stay there so you can launch with them on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny. In that case why not give us an opportunity to travel between additional modules inside a rocket and call the DLC "ONI: Hamlet". Or even better, make it a standalone survival game where you can play house tetris all you want. Don't forget chandeliers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
