(Better flowing eg water) 1 Would probably cause some strain on the CPU as it would have to constantly be running. 2 I totally agree with this, but in real life algae needs light, which is hardly used at the moment, so maybe they will revamp it as long as there is water? 3 Yes please please please Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/80451-a-few-ideas-graphical-indicator-algearamp/#findComment-937754 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Algae should produce some oxygen Every single one of the power producing options (including dupes on wheels) should use up oxygen. I'd just consider it a wash and be glad you don't have to make even more oxygen.

It would have to be very different game. Not impossible to do but a lot of development would have to be thrown out the window and everything reconsidered from scratch. 5 hours ago, Kargul85 said: 1.Graphical indicator of trend I don't see it as a problem but I don't think the game really needs it. 5 hours ago, Kargul85 said: 2.

(Better flowing eg water) I don't see them coming to the game, though I'd like them too. A tile is the smallest unit of space recognized by the game's physics engine which can only be occupied by single element and that'll likely never change. So they could only serve as means of fast slope traversal for dupes and liquids/gases would act funny around them. Probably easiest to add to the game would be a "mesh ramp" since that would not obstruct liquids/gases, getting rid of those funny effects, and still providing means of slope traversal for dupes.

Sevio Posted July 7, 2017 Share Posted July 7, 2017 A ramp or stair tile could be a tile that works mostly like a mesh tile, except it blocks the flow of gas/liquid on the underside and left/right side, depending on the orientation. Liquid on the tile would flow towards the left/right tile that is free when possible, leaving no thin remaining layer. Might as well have them rotatable so you could build sloped ceilings to encourage lighter gases in a mixed gas room to flow to the top.

But ya, I agree, I was just pointing out to the OP there's inconsistencies both ways. So just consider them to cancel each other out. Lots of people complain about plants and algae not making some/more oxygen, but very few complain about the opposite cases.
