When you are looking for stuff to observe you could just do a big wide box select in an area and it will show a list of everything in it. Then just pick the one you want and click observe. Good point when too many things are prioritized, nothing is prioritized. The wave attacks where they warn you an enemy is coming will target your people, they don't attack sensors/power poles unless they are in the way. (I don't even think they go after turrets that aren't turned on) Might want to put a wall with a door around that ramp up to your turrets (like you have with the forward defenses) so they can't get up there without taking down the wall. Keep dat content comin, luvin it, and yay me, an honorable mention.
@@SolidContent pawns have portable ladders to access areas that have no stairs. It takes twice as long as having stairs. You need to pull your turrets at least 1 block behind the palisade walls. The larget hostile Hive insects like the Scythe Mantis are able to reach over them to attack your shooters and turrets standing right against the palisades.
Also, two flamer units at the entrance right where Evelin and Katrina were defending should stop the baddies from entering. Maybe make your kill corridor longer full of traps. The missile launcher should be positioned somewhere in the middle of your base since it can’t target anything inside the red circle, that way you can place the target are at the mouth of your kill corridor. I comment as I go. I see you’ve flamenfuffered.
You need to find cloth blossom plant, that is how you get cloth, it took me a few years in game to figure that out. Also make your fields 12x12, that way you can plant any crop for that plot. Veggie leather and Silcon Plants require a 3x3 square to grow. Use freezers to store raw ingredients and fridges for cooked meals, you don't need too many cooked meals enough for your survivors + 1. Once you get to to tasty and chef meals they produce 2 per cooking cycle but take time. Quick meals are good in a pinch, but sweet syrup is just as good. Those nests are a good source of nano tubes, tkae the critters out and mine it.
Motion sensors look like a good idea but its dumb and also use CPU's, you can set then guns on two power switches, one turned on and set to Inactive circuit 10 and the other set to Active circuit 10 then you toggle the Active switch to turn the gun on and off.
I did your defence setup with the long opening but I made mine longer and I spammed every empty spot with traps up Until the turrets... Very effectiv.. I had 80+ of the small bugs.. Never came near the turrets
Maybe you should try building a windmill on top of a floor far away from the ground level as an experiment, just to see if windmills produce more power at higher altitudes.
I haven't seen healing him ith antibiotics as an available option in anyone's playthrough so far, and I've watched a LOT of them - but what a great idea. Wish it worked!
yeah unfortunately, I think the lore is that it's an implant or something? so it's permanent damage, and basically a roll on the character over whether he dies or not.
There are different attacks. The aggressive turned attacking creatures which will use your pathing corridor to get to your survivors. Then there are the hungry creatures which will attack your walls to get to your farms. If your turrets attack the ‘attacking’ creatures out beyond the walls they may stop their pathing and attack your walls to get to the offending turret.
When I get to this point in the game. I wonder if building a maze would help? You could also add a generator and set it to run only when your batteries die.
Having watched this game for a while now, I would try a V funnel with elevated fire positions behind the walls. That way you have a fighting cone of effect instead of a tunnel. And I bet the AI would then try to split while heading to the choke point at the bottom of the V.
FYI. Watch out for the fl@me throwers - keep your peeps OUT of the fl@mes... because the friendly in 'friendly flambe'... well, it ISN'T friendly, but it IS flambe... ALL flambe. (I had to use the word flambe because the algorithm is being angry) Owie. Roastie Toastie Survivors. 8(
Even just a few walls that jut out on the way into your base giving your turrets at the end of your kill corridor time to do they’re work. As for the middle launcher I’d move it back so that danger close red circle isn’t an issue and have the impact zone right at the entrance to the kill corridor
All your turrets decay, so the more items you build the more repair materials you need and even playing optimally you *will* drown in repair cost, the game is really punishing in that way.
Arcanum Elite has answered you! hahaha, why just barely survive? I prefer my colonists to SUR-THRIVE... except in farthest frontier wherein they are all dying...
@@SolidContent i generally make sure my people are surviving first... then worry about decorating later... but apparently its always decorating time with you even when faced with monsters or bandits or whatever... at least if your dying you will go down in a nice environment ;D
Best thing ever! Everyone needs to watch! (commenting for algorithm)
Got me with the title!😂😂 Was going to watch it anyway, but that made it better. Love your series. 🤘
I never look at the title I just watch 😂😂😂
Just because the game has some cheese mechanics doesn't mean you have to play it that way.
Kudos on your choice to play it as a sim!

Man spazzing

Just started watching, but they do make a ladder to climb up if there is not a stair to use or someone is blocking it.
I second this. No need to build the stairs, they’ll place a ladder, do their business, then remove the ladder. A very nice touch.
I actually feel like I spotted this out of the corner of my eye... VERy cool
Cntrl R is the combo of buttons for drafting and undrafting all...

new built looking very cool, could porch over a piece of roof onto the veranda part ;)
Doing things just for the aesthetic? That doesn't sound like you!
...oh wait, that is exactly like you, and we don't want you to change.
hahahahah SEE? I knew I had found my people
Love what you do and you don't need stairs to repair or build as they make their own temp stair to get up the platforms

Connor is a goner. You missed a trick 😂
hahahaha that'll be what I title the episode where he dies :(
8:05 you almost had your mouse on two cotton plants just abit more the the right and you would have target the two there were there
I did your defence setup with the long opening but I made mine longer and I spammed every empty spot with traps up Until the turrets... Very effectiv.. I had 80+ of the small bugs.. Never came near the turrets
I only have 2 Gun turrets at the moment 😁

oooooooh I love that
Could giving antibiotics help Conner with his eye problem? It's worth a try...yes.

Dude, the most powerful defensive weapon in the game is the flamethrower. Build them.

You need turrets protecting those turrets that got too on the platform I've been attacked by 272 hungry pests
WOOF 272? I am NOT ready for those numbers hahaha
I just found out that you can use heaters to grow crops in the winter
Looks fine to me. And yeah, i highly doubt the game is actually keeping track of how much light the photovoltaics get.
yeah totally... They have a lot of temperature dynamics and stuff to code in before they get to that kind of thing
It's important to observe corn(grain), Cotton plants, and many other plants ASAP. You can not plant those crops until you do.
Someone snuck a video in 😂
muahahah just a sneaky little fella :)
Conner is a goner
I still think the machanics are nearly exactly like the ones in Going Medieva.
you do realize you can increase the size of the missile launchers aoe field right?
whaaaaaaaat howwwwww
It would be good to see raids from people and other settlements of survivors

Owie.

build a zig zag maze in your kill box to slow down the bugs
yeah very good plan! maybe one that puts them in the path of a good missile spot
Even just a few walls that jut out on the way into your base giving your turrets at the end of your kill corridor time to do they’re work. As for the middle launcher I’d move it back so that danger close red circle isn’t an issue and have the impact zone right at the entrance to the kill corridor
More episode pls
There's three more after this ep! and then more on the way!
It game don't have a Boss wave ?
Bugs kerning to fly lol
Identify your healer and they can feed other co!ony members that are incapacitated.
Wrap around is a major waste of resources
All your turrets decay, so the more items you build the more repair materials you need and even playing optimally you *will* drown in repair cost, the game is really punishing in that way.
You need more turbines
Why are you wasting time building more rooms in a time management game you pest attacks are going to get crazy
because its solid content... he cares more about style than function...
