Sanshi85 Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 I really like the use of alga. I think its ecological, green, a potential source of food (maybe in the future?).. but the moment the consume all the alga and slime there's no way to renew it. Any chance to farm it anyway? maybe a special water farm tile could be awesome... with the use of light or something like that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can be renewed using the distiller, it converts slime into polluted water and algae, slime can be created from Pufts, so a puft farm can, albeit it painfully renew your algae I am unsure of how much algae you go through so it might not be enough to sustain a colony.

Well... thats a really slow process I don't like to count on the fauna of ONI... and since it is a plant after all, to me it makes sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLance Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 correct, but plants also absorb Co2, these do not unless its in a terrarium, its best to think that this algae is different from real world algae at the moment. they just share the same name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLance Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 I think that they will make fire act more like germs than like fire, Where a tile will go on fire and burn x amount of grams per second, if there are tiles nearby that are also flammable they light up as well. This means that oxygen isnt needed (But maybe they will make it that it cannot occur without oxygen), or pressure etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
