Lilalaunekuh Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 After reading Satyrical364´s post about the game (start) beeing unbalanced for the hardest difficulty, I wanted to explore this change in difficulty a bit more. Earlier posts here suggest that you can(/not sure if through a bug or intended) end up with a starting asteroid without any geysers. As someone playing ONI on the highest difficulty intentionally searching for a "bad" seed was always part of my enjoyment of the game. [For my own playthroughs I only consider seeds which allow for the most possible renewable resources. Like when having a chlorine geyser was the only way to have renwable chlorine ...] => What´s the worst seeds you encountered so far ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heathy Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I don't have the seed to hand at the moment (but can post later if you want it). My oil biome world is perhaps one of the worst as there is abyssalite missing leading to some very inhospitable temperatures (and sour gas) around the oil geysers, which definitely slows down the mid-game.

nessumo Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 We cannot say currently how seeds will look, it seems that for alpha testing everything is somehow hardcoded and we have the same setup of geysers. This will most likely change, but we don't know how. Also, don't count on early posts - it was a bug and it was fixed. Many things were fixed - that's the purpose of alpha. I hope on 8th we will see version that will allow for some reasonable speculations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExEvolution Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 If you didn't have geysers on your starting asteroid, I think its because you generated the world during an early version. It seems like you're guaranteed a cool salty slush geyser an a cool slush geyser on your first asteroid, and that's it. Other geysers seem to be only available on the other planets.

blash365 Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 SWMP-C-1470196998-0 No geysers/vents/volcanos. Only 2 slugs. Spoiler Not many plants or critters on second asteroid. Spoiler Third asteroid has a giant lack which releases alot of gas and critters into space. Spoiler enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I´m would prefer a map without geysers, even if it´s just through a bug. (It wouldn´t be the first time that a POI overrided a geyser spawn^^) But all seeds I tested today would offer the same 2 geysers ... => There might still be some other factors to distinguish better or worse seeds in the current version.

2tallyGr8 Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Someone could post an original bugged world with no geysers, as the original save file (that was created upon world gen) if they still have it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only got the alpha 3 days ago, so I don't have access to a bugged-out map. If I did, I would have posted it if anyone was interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nessumo Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 I have some low-cycle save with just one geyser: Beta-I Cycle 5.sav But I don't understand the purpose. Map is bugged, we have no idea how - maybe not just geysers- and this is alpha which will end in 3 days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
