Favorite Base - Thanks for all you've taught me!


Recommended Posts

Heading into the Cosmic Upgrade I just wanted to take a look back at my most recent/favorite base thus far. It has combined everything i've learned from all of you here, on youtube, etc. Not only did I want to show off my handy work, but I also wanted to say THANK YOU for everything you have taught me. I've come a long way from the Agricultural upgrade and I have everyone in the community to thank for it.

This was in a standard game, no debug builds (well, after 600 cycles sometimes you just gotta tweak that 1 thing :D) but for the most part it was built by my loving duplicants. Technically there is still some room to play, (looking at you plastic ladders) but for the most part I am about finished with this base.

Full World Overview. Nothing to see down in the Oil Biome. Its literally just a pump in oil.

Primarily the whole base, I like to build everything pretty organized/close together as opposed to having little rooms everywhere. Just my preference.

Come closer... :D. Couple water locked Co2 Fridge rooms, fancy gold bathroom, storage, bedrooms, etc. Exosuit exits, those are the only 2 points of entry/exit from the main base. You can see the top left farm and top right oil/plastic refinery area. All of the storage in the base has mostly starting biome stuff, some granite etc. All of the hotter material is stored outside. The bathroom recycles water through a sieve and excess flows into a big tank that feeds my pincha peppers.

An adaptation from @Lifegrow's Aquatuner farm build. Uses a hydrogen room with some thermal sensors, metal tiles and some automated doors for vacuum. Radiant pipes have been awesome. It took awhile to set up as i had to fill it slowly with hot water and let it reach temperature. It has 200g/s coming in from the geyser line and keeps up with it fine. Eventually I would have to up the valve to refill it but its been cool to play around with. An improvement would be putting that pesky valve outside but, ill save that for next time :D.

Here is the top right of the base. I got the top portion idea from @Botaxalim and it has been great everytime I have used it. Left chamber fills with oil until it reaches the hydro sensor, right chamber fills with petroleum. Refinery set to auto on a hydro sensor. Super easy. Pumps out excess NG over 1000g to my storage room. Bottom Portion is my plastic. It uses radiant gas pipes, wheeze worts and some clock sensors to produce plastic. The plastic chills at the top until its cool enough to start using. I could probably put the sweeper arm underneath with doors but I just added that second Polymer Press. For some reason the first one could have 100% uptime and then randomly started overheating so i just run 2 on 20% each.

This is the top of my base, directly inbetween the farm and oil/plastic area. It has a SPOM unit that has NEVER failed me since ive built it. Perfect oxygen even with my added smart battery in there. Oxygen has come out anywhere from 7-16 degrees. Its self powered and the automated. The excess hydrogen goes into that little over pressurized room and has about 500kg in it. I've never really used it besides filling up some stuff with hydrogen. I have a new little sleet wheet farm next to it, It gets cold water from its own hydrogen/vacuum cooled room above the fertilizer plant. Below that is just a cold room of hydrogen that runs all of my radiant pipe lines through the plastic room, bristle blossom water tank, and sleet wheat water tank. All on thermal switches.

This is out the right side of my base, 3 tanks. 1 (semi messy early built) polluted water tank/bathroom recycler, and overflow tank in the middle that ive never used :D, and my primary water source steam geyser. Just added that little chlorine pepper farm. All the farms have shipping of fertilizer to the rooms from the fert plant. Steam is just cooled with the same vacuum/hydrowort room.

Here is my NG power plant with my first Slush Geyser above it. What a charm. Not much to say, this thing is super easy and just insanely good. All the storage on the path out here is all my abysalite, obsidian, igneous etc.

Here i have an incorrectly built wort/door cooler in my NG geyser and it hasnt mattered haha. It keeps it somewhat cool and all of the NG pumps into that over pressurized room. It only has about 3000kg per tile in there.... All of the excess fert plant/oil refinery gas pumps allllll the way up to that little chamber as well.

Here is the left side, Sleet wheat water, and fert plant.

And thats basically it! I cannot wait for more things to build INSIDE my base. New decor/rec room stuff, new things for the dupes to do! Ill have to get a sweet glass aquarium going in the cosmic build hehe. 

So thanks for reading and again HUGE thank you!!!! to everyone who posts here and shares their knowledge and a HUGE thank you to Klei for making such a brilliant game for us to share!

Ill throw in some of my messy piping that can always, always be improved on, but it came out decently ;p. I also realize i have no tubes... but where would they take them!! probably just to collect wild sleet wheat grains honestly :).

Very nice and neat! Like it! Aren't you producing a bit too much food haha? I'm over-producing my 11 dupes colony with only 7 pincha peper plants, 6 sleat wheat and 6 bristle blossom. (always farmer touch)

Yeah im definitely overproducing food haha. TBH a lot of my food comes from just wild sleet wheat and pincha peppers, I just wanted to try out the different farms. Its fine though with the fridge rooms, nothing spoils.

Such a nice compact organized base. Makes me want to plan more. Is there just the one electrolyzer?

Thank you! Just the 1 electrolyzer yup! I keep my dupe count pretty low and try and get diver's lungs when I can.

This base looks too...

I don't know something feels off

Perhaps symmetry is boring

Meh I prefer it. Im trying to build a home for the dupes after all. 

ONI is a very nice sandbox, with cute dupes that die horribly if you do not do your very best to keep them alive (or if you are really pissed at them,....) So thanks from me as well for all the nice information may people here are collecting and sharing!
