hthought Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I have been trying to make a rocket with which i will be able to reach the 4th asteroid and back. I can't find the golded combination. Seems like I will just need the petroleum engine because it can support 7 modules. Then I need a spacefarer module and a nocone, leaving 4 more modules available. Seems like I need all those 4 for petroleum tank(2) and oxydizers(2). Thus, I don't have space for a rover's module for example. How do you guys set this up for the 4th asteroid with the new rockets?

Gurgel Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Use Oxylite and you should get 2 x petroleum and 1 x oxidizer. Not tested, but that is what I take the 200% efficiency of Oxylite from the patch-notes to mean.

sakura_sk Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I did some testing but no actual travel in a playthrough yet to see it in action...

icehot Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 I used 2 CO2 rockets that could travel 4 tiles, dropped down the trailblazers, deconstructed them, and built a landing pad. Third rocket was a small petroleum engine, and small solid oxidiser tank filled with oxylite. This third one had 6 tiles of range. However before I built up the compartment to support 3 dupes, I set it up to bring petroleum inside and pump it into a liquid tank, then deconstructed it. That way I had petroleum left on the floor. I bought enough steel with me to build up a pump setup outside, and then refilled the tank on the 4th asteroid. I also had enough refined metal to build a 2nd rocket platform to land the 2 CO2 rockets on it, one after the other, once i'd deconstructed them for parts. Managed to get 3 dupes safely back home with about 650kg of niobium, and no stranded rockets. EDIT: Oh forgot to say I was pressurising the cabin area with oxylite, so when it landed they refilled the solid oxidiser tank with what I brought with me as well.

I will give it a shot thanks ! Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/126433-rocket-with-8-tiles-of-range/#findComment-1421306 Share on other sites More sharing options...
greywizard Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 One large solid oxidizer tank full of oxylite will match two large petro tanks for a total range of 12 tiles with the big petro engine. Currently planning an expedition to this paradise.
