How we built rocket silos in the olden days : Oxygen not included ep 19

I keep forgetting just how much the spaced out DLC changed... well space.
Though I do miss how automated the resource harvesting would be done from asteroids.

Francis lost a golden opportunity for some trolling. Picture this: "Aaaand we're back, with some more ONI. And today, today we are going to build a rocket silo, right here." Silo built, and credits rolled.

Francis, your muppets are continuously repairing the gas reservoir tank, check at 31:34 in the left 😂

[thefirestorm]

3:16 "not because we need to but because it'll be mildly funny"

please apply this more often, in every possible circumstance

[Beregorn]

26:49 "The problem is that we don't have polluted water"
*ignores the power brick spewing almost 2kg/s of polluted water*

[swimmadude]

pemmican never goes off at room temp/atmo. easily the best added food since you can just chuck it in an unpowered fridge and stockpile forever

[Espersontheone]

When you started talking about nosh beans I got exited. Yeah I agree, why are the beans so expensive? Beans are cool and very ONI.

[relortal]

Don't forget to mop up the mercury next to your silo - it keeps touching the superheated bunker tiles and is spreading that heat into the resources you're getting.
Also, instead of having the two rocket output lines merge, you can probably give them separate dropoffs to make unloading a bit faster, they seem to be getting blocked at the merge.

I kept a boatload of gulp fish in my liquid mercury tank. Was really easy, truth be told. Made Fish Tacos very practical... bottleneck for much of my run was water for sleet wheat.

I had a few fertilizer powered bases in the super early game. It was a good way to make more power than you could ever use back then

[River_of_Egypt]

Don't take me back to the fertilizer synth meta days. We only got 2 cool steam vents, that was it. Back when the roof was Neutronium.

[justinorlesky]

Francis you should tell 'does anyone actually read the names' that yes some one does, it's me, lol.

[guyincognito]

Ahh fertilizer power, the before times, in the long long ago.

[wrenmath]

I wonder if the steam room is getting too cold at 22:35 and the steam generator is not running, giving you that steam pressure.

[bonk]

Glad someone else is calling out how useless nosh beans are. I made a Reddit post a couple years back about how unviable they are compared to other options and are pretty much beaten in every metric

[gradious]

10:59 Pemmican. Why do I feel like eating my meals at a table all of a sudden?
16:02 "Why don't I just flood the sommnium synthesizer?" So that's how psychic emanators are made.
21:14 Slaughter animals. Totally not muffalo noises.
21:45 17 invisible psycasters are constantly casting Waterskip into the boiler.
25:05 "Crisps. Chips." To go with the scone-sconces?
32:22 "I can't remember the last time I used fertilizer or if I ever did." because the crops on this colony are fertilized by the blood of our enemies.
37:57 "I, uh, hope you have a good weekend and good luck!"

[carlosromero]

27:42 Overheat damage on the gas tanks.

[johannstein]

You could use the "overflow" of polutet water from the power brik byobserv the pressur via atmo sensor to produce the Fertilizer
Thank for the episode <3

[RobertLutece]

It's funny you should rant about nosh beans. I'm doing my first spicy tofu playthrough, just because, and it's crazy. It's not the nosh beans or the pincha pepperplants that are the headache. It's the fact that you also have to ranch pips and dreckos to make it all work.

As I switch away from hatches I actually have to do more ranching to make the dirt and phosphorite needed, and that's in addition to the new farms and the extra cook to run the microbe musher. The labor requirements go up dramatically.

For a 100% sustainable colony it would have been far easier to go with a regolith melter to feed the hatches.

[mrjblacc]

You could make extra ceramic by cooking up some clay at about 930°C.
Those rocket exhausts might do the trick ;)

[Dragonlord]

You did use fertilizers at least once, it was when you were messing with mutated plants, and realized you could run a colony on a tiny ranch worth of plants.
