booleanman1983 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 I'm loading oxygen into the gas storage. The storage size is 3600 kg. Oxygen is loaded at 1 kg per second - this is a very long time. 3600/60 = 60 minutes. Or am I doing something wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simonova Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 That's the sum of it, though you can speed it up with additional rocket gas loaders (which is a nice touch for anyone who wants to optimize rapid loading and unloading). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This. I never go for anything below 2 loaders for oxygen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
booleanman1983 Posted July 1, 2021 Author Share Posted July 1, 2021 That is, there is no other option, thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasza22 Posted July 1, 2021 Share Posted July 1, 2021 There`s no need to fill it fully though. Just set it to 300 kg and it should be enough for a short trip. The full capacity is for harvesting gas via the drillcone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The full capacity is for harvesting gas via the drillcone. Depends, a dupe needs 60 kg/cycle. So sure, if you're sending a single dupe on a short trip, that 300kg will last 5 cycles + whatever is inside the spacefarer module. If you send 3 dupes and want to land and start building some sort of colony, the full 3600kg will only last 20 cycles, including traveling back and forth. That may leave you with only 10-15 cycles on the planet do do some work, depending on how far you go of course. Basically, plan your trip ahead and load up whatever amount of O2 that makes sense for you. There is always the option to use more O2 loaders if it is not fast enough for you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boiledDupe Posted July 2, 2021 Share Posted July 2, 2021 Could always convert it to liquid and pump it at 10kg/s. It can also help your new colony setup a nice cold biome for those frosty frost burgers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
