I like this new DLC, but have you forgotten the harvest of GasGrass?

[X_mumu]

The harvest of Gasgrass has no function in the game. I don't know how to deal with it. Maybe you could delete it.

[RBs]

You're not supposed to harvest gas grass, grassy moos eat it directly.

[JRup]

Gas grass will, in due time, drop "harvested gas grass" if the plant hasn't been visited by a moo. This product still remains useless and has been for too long. A "compost" option should be added to it to the very least. Currently, the only (unmodded) way to get rid of it is having a dispenser embed it into a neutronium tile, which is not a solution in itself.

With all the new plant-based recipes, it could easily be included as an alternative ingredient in some of those.

We have to harvest it to get new seeds in SO. And it will lie here forever creating unnecessary lag

I'm certainly not against the idea of harvested gas grass seeing some actual use, this certainly seems like the DLC where it would be most applicable, but how much gas grass are you all planting that it's creating performance altering debris?

It's something that we should be able to toss into compost but is not. Any other use is a win, but it's been simply swept under the rug by Klei. See my earlier post above.

That's not what I asked, I said how much could you possibly be planting that you have enough laying around to affect your game's performance? It's not like there's any reason to stock up on it.

Performance is irrelevant in this post and hence this context. There are situations where gas grass will go uneaten by moos and you get harvested gas grass from plants automatically dropping it after some time. We cannot compost it by default and it has no use. That's the rub.
I have nothing more to add.

When I doing moo farms I usually have 100+ plants. Thats means 100+ debris piles, each one exchanging heat individually. There isnt much in kgs, but kgs dont mean anything, just number of piles

Nothing a good 'ol move-to relocate-to command can fix...

Or, hear me out:

Better yet, point this bad boy into a neutronium tile and let dupes have a bit of fun:

And if devs could be so kind then allow for it to be composted to the very minimum, but here's a better destination for harvested gas grass:

Pulverizer go squish.

[cyberwarlord]

Why not make it a new type of fiber/fabric alternative?

Or you could consider it a wheat grain plant and use it for a type of generic animal feed/treat recipe. 

Making flour of some type? 

Medical ingredients?

The remedy for flatulence, from the plant itself.

Big brain.

 

 

There is a medical thread somewhere, it was about treatment for negative perks. Or ways to cause them.

Or a remedy for some other condition that causes flatulence as a side effect, which now needs to be managed. As drugs do.
