Rime 6 : Dr Bane, Toilets, Reed fiber and Atmo suits. : Oxygen not Included
14/35 Achievements by the end of this video. Get a bit of refinement done but not a lot, I am not liking having to be gentle on power. It goes against my entire play style. New toilets installed and plumbed it's warm enough now it should not freeze. Atmo suit docks are installed but not activated yet, I need to build more suits. I got very lucky that there was some wild reed fiber growing around the map or it would have taken forever to make the suits. Lesson learned for next time is get up a farm of reed fiber fast if you want your atmo suits before the 200 cycle mark.
The hive stuff was fine, we went in and nabbed the queen even if we did have to fight way to many drones. But the skin bandits were a way different story, you do not want to get knocked out around them. The penalty for messing up with the skin bandits is horrifying. They needed to be exterminated for the good of everyone.

It's amazing how much stuff you can cram into such a small amount of time. This video only covers 15 cycles yet it feels like so much gets done. More rockets return, are relaunched, we get cargo back and start on super coolant.
I change the research focus to bio cargo bays so we can get a gassy moo faster, this strategy should get us to all achievements faster if my thinking on this is right.
Knocking out super sustainable feels damm good, the last really big milestone was Carnivore a while back so this was a nice milestone.
I don't want to jinx us but I think we can get all the achievements before cycle 365, quite a bit before cycle 365. Don't want to make any guesses just yet but we could be pretty far ahead of schedule. You of course are free to guess all you want :)

Time to handle cycles 15-40, water consolidation, mealwood for food. A carbon skimmer and water sieve to clean up the CO2. Smart batteries and coal generators for power. Investment in hatches and sedimentary rock for future food and coal. How to deal with slime, it's fairly easy. Also mass excavation of everything in our path.

To many awesome bases and designs don't get the exploration they deserve so I thought I would try and show off their features to the best of my abilities. If you have a base you would like to share my email is in the about section.
Huge thanks to LTL King and Roland Ireland for sharing their beautiful bases with the community. You are truly great people.

So to say that I'm looking forward to using all the new mechanics is an understatement. There is some truly broken things you can do with the new genes, combine that with some of the royalty and Ideology mechanics and you are looking at so much fun. Enough typing I need to start playing.

The plan is to start with 5 tribal pawns of different gene types, Yttakin, Neanderthal, Pigskin, Impid and Waster.
We then breed each of them with three different gene types to give us 15 unique pawns. Then we select 5 of them to be used for the archonexus questline. The rest we put onto a ship and fire them into space. We will also patch on Xenogenes onto the selected children stacked with a gene implanter.
Once the 5 children are sent to archonexus they to will each have three kids again from different gene lines, each kid will have genes from their parent implanted into them. The five winners will graduate to the next round of the archonexus.
The other 15 pawns will be sent off world via the Stellarch quest.
Round three will follow the same formula. However we will keep spiking the difficulty.
Round one Losing is fun difficulty.
Round two Losing is fun difficulty, 500% threat.
Round three Losing is fun difficulty, 500% threat, no threat limiter.
This is the current plan, the plan might change a bit as we go.

Why is it always Centipedes? I have watched several videos on this game and usually it's a mix of sythers, lancers and the occasional Centipede. I suppose Randy just loves me and wants me to have all the Centipede fun. In this episode I send Anita off on a dangerous solo quest that is incredibly dangerous. I'm lucky she survived and will have to be more careful in future. The lack of raids coming my way is concerning me, I worry that it will all of a sudden it will rain lots of raids. I think that is the sign of a well designed game, when things are going well I'm getting more and more worried waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Turning it on is one thing but what happens if we ever have to turn it off? If you turn off the automation it will still take 6-10 days to run out of fuel. No dupe could survive long enough in there to deconstruct it. I think this is a reactor you just leave in there and never touch again. Maybe a combo of lead suits and fish food might help a bit.

After a giant sweep there is no speed gain observed, it would appear the patches from Klei have really improved late game performance. (IMPORTANT : my testing was flawed, turns out my game was running at full speed already, using a mod to max the speed showed a 25% speed improvement after the sweep) Then it's straight into building a new core base. I want it to be compact and expandable so stealing lots of old Ideas to make a nice base. The whole area is still a little cold but that can be fixed.
