Fun but here's what I think could help

[Basticar]

I purchased this game after seeing one of my favorite Youtubers play it and I am really enjoying it so far. But here are some things that I've found to be quite annoying and just upright hard to get out of. First is food supply. right now there is only one way to make food (as far as i know) and thats using the micro musher machine. There needs to be more food production in other ways that don't involve one machine for everything because  when your people start lashing out and cut of the electricity to the micro musher your pretty much screwed. I suggest maybe reducing the time it takes to harvest plants and add new plants that can be instantly reverted into food. So increase the farming and decrease the food manufacturing if you understand what that means. Second would have to be the stress levels. Way too quickly do your people stress out and it is one, if not, the hardest thing to fix. You can build massage tables and beds to try to get them under control but massage tables take and extraordinary amount of time before it actually does anything. Plus when they start lashing out they always seem to go for batteries which is the most annoying thing ever since those are running all your machines which eventually causes more stress. It's a never ending loop and your keep getting drawn further into it. Other than those main things that stuck out everything else seems good for now but I will return with more if I can. Keep up the good work guys and I'm really enjoying your game and the challenge it brings.

Build more lice farms, dood. 12 or so can give you near-infinite food.

I think destructive stress goes for any high priority thing, but not sure. Either try and pick only vomiters (free water!), or disable all jobs when you assign someone to a massage table so they only reduce stress. You can also lessen stress gain by giving them time to be idle, i think.

Don't use the micro musher at all!

That machine uses up water for both recipes and the dups are happy enough to eat raw meal lice.

Would be useful with a boxing ball or so that the dups will smash when they are stressed instead of breaking critical equipment.

Imagine what would happen if an astronaut on real world ISS space station would start trashing equipment, (s)he would be jettisoned from the station or something!

Hmm... this gives me a cruel play through idea...

I set my massage table to 9 and never assign important work over 8 unless it's an emergency. They will always prioritize de-stressing over other tasks (unless you get THAT bug)

I think people over use priority 9.

5: normal work
6: important work for those assigned to that job
7: important work for anyone
8: urgent work for everyone
9: warp core is breaching... drop everything and run!
