Making an Excellent Yield Mealwood Farm - Oxygen Not Included - Tutorial/Guide

Vintage!

I need this for my spice grinder lol

This game far too complex for me 😪 spent 34 hours struggling to figure out how to get the complex machines to work while running out of air. back to prison architect for me more my speed.

4 years later and this guy is still replying to comments. What a fucking legend

Does plant excellency still exist in ONI?

Are there real worm on mealwood 🤔

Even though that looks like a great farm. But that still is far from good for end game.
The Mealwood needs to be in the muncher first, then grilled.

For example, for me. With 9 duplicants, I had 3 on munchers, 1 on grill, and 3 on resources delivery. That left me with 2 for other stuff, and if I had to use manual generators, that leaves me with nothing.
Seeing how this game works, the sooner you get to automation, the better, so Mealwood isn't ideal for endgame stuff.

I wish he would have made a video discussing endgame food solutions, or progressive food solutions

so wait, plants need oxygen but not carbon dioxide? lol

can use cooling/heating loops in hotter/colder biomes to regulate temperature by automating shortcuts in the pipes.

WHAT tha hell man.. this is high tech, mines... a bit villigy

I ran out of dirt cycle 250 😢

lol this guy is at day 173 with only 5 dupes, i was on day 90 with 15 and only had one mush bar factory thing xD

wow to much info i miss i end up at 170 day i have problem with a lot of heat to my base

cycle 1550. Finally ran out of dirt. Now trying to avoid starvation by looking for a food that doesn't consume bucket loads of resources to produce.

tbh after i started watching these guides i lost my enthusiasm to even play. all this info about oxygen, power, planting is too damn much xD

Daaamn, I just realized that I'm on the same cycle as you are in this video Lol Crazy

So planter box is like a wild farm?

Omg i forgotten that this was an old version of the game and i was wondering wtf that dups gun was doing to the water at the beging xD

Why do I have to be a scientist in order to play this game? ugh!

If you use 4 Airlocks in a pattern like this:

Vertical, 2 horizantals stacked, vertical

Then very little gas (no gas if automatic) will be let it, and the temperature that seeps in will be minimal. That way, Dupes won't get the Sopping Wet debuff without an Atmo Suit.

Did the dev remove the ideal conditions? Because Looking at the crops it doesn't display the quality stats that you are showing. Do they hide the stats now or did they remove that mechanic?

Now it’s way easier

Thank you for taking the time to make this video. It was exactly what I was looking for.

might want some sort of "edited/notes"  to indicate this information is outdated.

Gosh, this looks way to complicated.. :D I was hoping there is a simpler solution. Thank you anyway!

im stupid as hell.. i dont know how to do jack shit in this game...

I fucking hate this game. the more duplicants i get the less gets done. they just run around like idiots or stand around right next to a job that needs to be done. the systems are archaic and convoluted with no in game explanation. its just the worst kind of time sink imaginable

unfort this kind of video get old very fast b/c klei changed a lot with every Update. Good video, very good explained and for his time extrem helpful. But now Updates a out and this isn't correct anymore. :(

farming without light source? Damn this game has been easy back in the day. Useless video today.

Very informative, and a very nice build. All my dupes would have died long before they managed to execute any of the commands I gave them to set that up though. That my main problem, everything takes too long to do, they're always busy going to the WC or something other than digging and constructing.

How the hell do people get so far in the game..

You know Cryptic, it may be best to unlist this video since I think the mechanics your describing no longer exist

My crops still overheat!! Is using 189.2°C fertilizer wrong?

But don't plats use carbon dioxide??? And use it to make oxygen??? Guess the game makes it so that it just needs to be in oxygen.

....i just realised the water pump sucks water in from the bottom...

Still wish in these guides they gave some basic info... like how many plants you need per duplicant at different values. How many excellent plants? How many good ones? Plus if you need to go through so much work to get extra seeds you dont really have the extra space for adding more plants~ so Id assume you would have a smaller farm where you get seeds and you use the extra seeds in a more basic farm where you only control temperature and air pressure.

Use carbon dioxide instead of oxygen so you won't get extra gasses in the farm.

Any tips to getting the right tempurature without depending on an RNG Goldilock zone of biomes?

So back when you did this and your duplicants went in to harvest the crops, did their eardrums pop every time?

Another fantastic, helpful video. Thank you again.

lol this update was so damn silly mealwood woudl basically never work outside of a farm

Whats the advantage of the water lock?

Just planting like 20 mealfood in the line. Allows to not to care about your yield and keep like 15 colonists being saturated with ease

curious... why would one need more seeds? just doing casual playing today i have a stack of like 30 seeds. i think my goal would be a steady 'good' quality crop for the food value and not worry about the excellent.

What you could do is add some sort of a door lock before the water lock, so you can disable the door whenever you don't need duplicants to go in or out, or give permissions.

You have a lp of this game?

Plant yield and conditions are no longer a feature as of the Outbreak update. But plants still have certain requirements, and these strategies still provide stable crop growth.
