Popular vote certainly isn't always right. But I don't think that plants absorbing CO2 would make the game worse. In fact I would love if the final "sustainable" state of the game relied on plants rather than on machines. But in a way that you can't really get there without these machines.

Saturnus Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Several patches ago. Like a month or two perhaps? Mealwood consumed air (any gas in fact). The devs decided that was not an avenue they wanted to go down and removed it intentionally. We can only assume the devs intend to make the best game possible so it's my conclusion that the devs decided that it would make for a poorer game play.

Yeah but there is substantial difference between plants consuming any gas (and contributing to the base atmosphere becoming unbreathable) and consuming particularly CO2 (and contributing to the base atmosphere becoming more breathable). Besides, just like popular vote, even devs' decisions are not always the bes that can be done for the game. That's why this forums section is here.

Saturnus Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 People would generally grow mealwood in the lower and cooler sections of the base in order for the mealwood to consume most of the CO2 and chlorine in the base. And then rely on overpressurizing the base to push those gases down and maintain a high enough gas pressure. However, getting sufficient O2 was and still is not really a problem as you can just as well let your dupes breathe polluted O2. Although called Oxygen Not Included, oxygen has never really been an issue. Naturally, it is more challenging to use only pure O2 but that is your choice. And a limitation you set for yourself. The game does not require for your dupes to breathe O2 and can live quite happily breathing polluted O2 just fine and with virtually no ill effects as long as you provide them with showers and medical care.

PVD Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 I guess more interesting would be if they absorb oxygen and produce dioxide or even chlorine, then yes it would be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr peeps Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Its more realistic and its logical I like it I think they also would need a tony bit of water and produce/subtract oxygen/carbondioxide at a verty small rate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
