just fyi - simplest shove room is just a single wall on the right side. and 1 cage door where you drop eggs into the door, they can't cramp. and being confined doesnt bother them at all. reason u need a wall on left side of the door is they'll lay an egg but the egg ends up inside the door. the floor needs to be an obsidian tile. thats it.
Lovely! As for annoying liquids in the oil pool, I recently started to just isolate the liquid pumps "under the floor" and have them on a hydro sensor, same principle as for the hydrogen pump in a SPOM. Thus, no more worrying about any water or petroleum or what-have-you that may pile up, hooray.

I was watching a video from Grind This Game and when I went to his channel to find this series I was completely baffled. I had to look in my watch history to check who it was XD You two sound kinda similar and have a somewhat similar more technical approach to the game, so when I was watching his video I didn’t realize that it was the wrong channel. Doesn’t help that had a rime series too.
@Francis - Regarding getting viewers to suggest dupe names, this is a great way to boost your YT engagement metrics (which is very significant to the algorithms that drive traffic). The one issue with your current process is that viewers don't get to see the name selections in real-time. I think you might do even better if every time you hire a dupe, you pick from one of the pre-suggested names and give a shout-out to the user who suggested it. Then you tell the current viewers to leave their name suggestions in the comments, along with the dupe trait their name would be appropriate for. To make it easy to pick names, you could keep a spreadsheet of name_suggestion, associated_dupe_trait, suggesting_user. If updating the spreadsheet becomes annoying, it's an easy thing to either outsource or script (I could help with scripting it). Food for thought. Love your videos. Will probably send you some Patreon support, although I'd be more excited to send you a bottle of whiskey. Cheers!
I have had videos with lots of engagement and videos with average engagement and it does not appear to change the popularity/views of the video. I prefer to let comments just happen, trying to artificially drive engagement does not help videos in my opinion. Well not for the type of video I make.
Re your problem with food going off in the great hall... I havent tested this but it could be a decent idea? Have the floor made out of doors on their side. Have a timer going off when nobody is in the hall to open the doors n let the food fall through. Then you can have sweepers in that area to pick up the food n take it back to the kitchen
Also, why not just by default let everyone in, but not out? (for the new dupes) Also please let your whole besides your core base be hydrogen.. That would be so cool.
You should set up your main base exit doors to default to allowing in but not allowing out, that way when you print new dupes they should automatically run into the base to the gym instead of you manually opening the door for them
15:00 "On the surface, I once bought a forest. The parasites claimed that the land belonged to God, and demanded that I establish a public park there. Why? So the rabble could stand slack-jawed under the canopy and pretend that it was paradise *earned*. When Congress moved to nationalize my forest, I burnt it to the ground. God did not plant the seeds of this Arcadia - I did." - Andrew Ryan (and basically Francis)
Only half way through the video but was wondering if you should include the printing pod as part of the main base and have the exit from there only allow your good dups out.
@@FrancisJohnYT Meh I usually have enough pepper seeds to make more than enough to feed my dupes too. Of course my current seed has 2 cool slush and 2 polluted geysers so I have more PO2 than I know what to do with.
you have removed the part of the floor that was completing the room of your nature reserve in the core base, you may want to install a permanently open door sideways there
I feel like I speak for a notable segment of us when I say "I feel that Anita Nikita should be considered a super hero at this point". I could be wrong, but let's be fair here. She is hard damn carrying rimworld. I think I overheard a conversation between her a Diggity with her complaining about her back hurting from all the trash she was carrying. :D I'm not going to go into who it was directed at, I'm just saying that Anita was on one side of the map and Dogsbody was angrily punching walls on the other.
can't you make the default on your base entrance to be entrance only and then override that for all the dupes that have completed gym training. That way all new dupes can enter but not leave
I've really been learning a ton by powering through all of your Oxygen Not Included videos. Gonna take me a few weeks to get through them all. But dangit, I'm gonna! Do you have a discord channel?
Seems my Dreckos just sit there and starve. Planted the plants. They grow and they never eat. I've got mine showing cycles to death. And they have zero kcals in them. Yet the plants are right there growing happily along. Went through a more than a few cycles for the stuff rotting on the vine. But the Dreckos don't eat and starve.
Why not use a heating loop? Would take a lot less than the space heaters which are really, truly terrible. I've always setup a small automated heating loop for my 'hot' plants and you never have to worry about it ever again. Btw, being able to build and rebuild natural tiles as you need really is handy, isn't it? :D
I should really use both, I always like to have both options. Though I suppose with a double layered wall with a vacuum in the middle I could make a perfect heat seal for the tube access.
I may be crazy, but I think the dupes drop the food when eating because they are too far away from the food storage to return it. You could try testing the distance, I'm not 100% on it myself, I haven't tested it, but that may to be the case.
Your pronunciation of "balm" is instantly driving me crazy! Is that how it's pronounced across the pond? I checked dictionary.com and played an example and the "a" in it was pronounced "ah" as I've always heard it. Though, interestingly, it had the "l" as silent, which I didn't expect. Hrm.
It's just his accent. Most Irish and scots too will say it like that, maybe Yorkshire as well, mostly Northan dialects I guess. Basically there's fucking loads of distinct heavy accents.
Why do you not just allow the new dupes to always enter their designated door to the base? Seems like it would save you some hassle of toggling the permissions every time you get a new one

There is no greater feeling of pride than watching the dupe you named get entombed twice in five seconds. I'm so proud.

A year late but what are you talking about this is literary _gold_
You can seal the pod in a small room with only a transit tube to the base to solve the new dup issue.

Glad you enjoy, my apologies to your free time.

The scrubber is hilarious to watch
Hope the battery doesn't die when they are inside
That happened to me once. I printed a dupe, thinking I could turn them into a mechatronics engineer. They were unconstructive
You Should set the base doors to default allow all in. That will let the new dupes in by default. Then just let them out when ready.

you should be able to make the pepper nut farms more compact if you plant them from bottom to top.
Yeah but requires 5 tiles gap not 4
Hey buddy, about your dining room litter: autosweepers can reach through pneumatic doors.

Now take all that solid CO2 in the cryobrick and heat it up in a sealed room 😈
Francis, you can use fertilizer and the farm station on wild plants to increase their growspeed, it will save you a lot of space
as always thanks for the video :) and i finaly caught up

You didn't tell Nisbet to go in the base after she spawned off of the gate. Abe too
I noticed after I got some hypothermia and mess alerts, oops.
