CantBreathe Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I had a look at the default map size in debug mode. My colony cannot feasibly explore or expand to the far off areas without oxygen tanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturnus Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Or make small pockets with local oxygen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cilya Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 You can expand your oxygen production outside your colony quarters. An easy way is to have an electrical cable running through your galleries and put Algae Deoxydizer at some places. Small pockets of oxygen through the gallery will be enough. Digging will reduce the gas pressure everywhere, so when you will produce oxygen, it will fill the space and compress unbreathable gases to the extremity. You can dig below and above your galleries level so heavy and light gases can fit in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gravityx Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Your dupes can hold their breaths for quite long. It may be a bit inefficient early game...but you really only need to dig/ladders outside main base (to find geysers). To expand later in the game, it becomes extremely easy. http://imgur.com/a/fQKOY Just a quick example of my base. Some of the oxygen in parts outside base are PO2...but that doesnt really matter at all, especially lategame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pi2 Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 I usually just run a gas pipe, and pump in O2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exa Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Algae terrarium is excellent for digging : no energy needed, produces just enough oxygen for the job and no more I use to travel in map by digging gallery in abyssalite separation between biome, yes it's slow but my dupes are safe from heat/cold and toxic gas in here, and I just have to put some algae terrarium and turn them off later or reduce priority. plus i have a good amount of abyssalite for build insulated tiles later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saturnus Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 There's also deoderizers which really only needs sand. Something you'll have in abundance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parusoid Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 If you plan exploration build smaller bases around the map. Treat those areas as if it was where you started the game at cycle 1. If its efficient enough, move further into map. Rinse and reapet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michi01 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 The roadmap states that suits will be added, we just need to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
