c90. The sleet wheat farm is in. I realized I don't have to *start* with it cold, just build it in an ice biome to begin with.

And down at the bottom, the gas infinistores are coming online. Had to pause other work for this, cuz nastygas was starting to creep in to the bottom of the base.

Screenshot: The first gas infinite storage, for co2, is online. The second one will be for chlorine. A third one will collect the natural gas from that geyser below, and a fourth one will be an exit into some deodorizers.

Screenshot. A rather simple irrigated farm for sleet wheat. The water is being piped in from underneath through igneous insulated tiles to keep it liquid.

Hard to formulate a good plan for this odd shape.

My hatch ranches need 5 25x4 levels. My drecko design needs 2 27x4 levels. My bedroom plan needs 4 27x4 levels. Bathroom, hospital, water treatment, and rec room need 2 levels, and food prep and great hall need 2 levels.

Not gonna get all that w/o cracking into a caustic biome. I wanna see whats left of the upper left, and right of the upper right, before I make a plan.

Meanwhile, dig dig dig.

c9, and I think I have my plan.

Note the blueprinted in ladder. That will be the final location. It'll be a pain to move it over, only three tiles away, but a minor one, and it gives me a nice advantage, a straight shot from space to magma, which pleases my OCD streak.

There's the current bathroom and great hall in the way, but they were always meant to be temp, anyway.

Screenshot: a tall ladder is built, and just three tiles to the left of it, another one is blueprinted in.

This will take a long time to get to, but here's my plan.

All levels are 27x4 internal. At the very top, 4 bedroom floors, 2x2 on either side of the ladder.

Continuing down on the left, food prep, great hall, research, massage & rec room, materials storage.

Continuing down on the right, bathroom & nature reserve, water cleaning & hospital, two levels of drecko ranch. Then 4 hatch ranches, and the evolution level at the bottom.

Simple sketch of proposed layout, as described in the main text and reply.

The key insight: with the ladder a few spaces left of its current location, the top hatch ranch can incorporate the printer, and we'll do a whole new research area with all four stations.

So, the first step is to localize the water. That will be at the very bottom in an infinistore, for which I need some research.

Meanwhile, dig dig dig, cuz we don't have stable food yet.

c18. That took a while, but the ladder is mostly moved, the infinistore is ready for the last priming.

Along the way, we moved the temporary outhosues to a new temporary location, moved the great hall to its final location, and all the cots up to final location but temporary arrangement.

Once the water starts draining, the next priority is clear: stabilize food supply.

Screenshot: The long vertical ladder has been relocated (mostly). Several of the temp rooms have been moved. At the bottom of the ladder, a liquid infinistore is just about ready to go.

c22. Not much to see, just yet. But the water's nearly finished draining, and we've cleared much of the hatch ranching area.

Food is *tight*, we may wind up making some of the dreaded mush bars. That's okay, we'll catch up soon enough.

Food. I see two main sources for the long haul: bbq, but that's very slow to develop, berry sludge, equal to bbq, but it'll be a while, cuz we gotta penetrate the ice biomes for sleet wheat.

But. Spoze we start with Gristle Berry?

#oxygennotincluded

Screenshot: Nearly all the water pools have finished draining. Further, nearly all of the starting biome is dug out. (There's still some left on the lower right, but not a lot.)
