The ship cryptosleep casket is used to contain a colonist in a state of suspended animation for space travel. To construct one, it must be placed adjacent to a ship structural beam (head first). It cannot be placed independently. If the player wishes to build a ship to evacuate the planet and end the game, several caskets are needed, one for each colonist and/or animal to be transported. They can be placed adjacent to each other provided they don't block the interaction spot of other caskets.


While in a cryptosleep casket, a humanoid's biological functions are suspended. The player may select a cryptosleep casket and look at the inspect pane to see if it is empty or occupied. When occupied, an 'Eject sleeper' button becomes available to allow the player to remove the colonist.


After waking from cryptosleep a humanoid will have cryptosleep sickness for a short time, which reduces consciousness and manipulation and causes vomiting. The colonists at the start of the game have cryptosleep sickness since they were in cryptosleep before the ship crashed.


The ship cryptosleep casket is visually and functionally identical to the cryptosleep casket found in the Misc menu. A cryptosleep casket differs largely from its ship-bound counterpart in that it is not a ship component and therefore can be placed anywhere.


When a ship cryptosleep casket is severely damaged it will spark briefly then explode. Nearby flammables may catch fire.

Entering a Cryptosleep Casket

Colonist

  • To have a colonist enter a cryptosleep casket, simply select the colonist, then right-click a cryptosleep casket, and choose "Enter cryptosleep casket.

Animal

  • To add an animal to a cryptosleep casket, the process is more complex:
    • Select the animal.
    • Go to their Health tab.
    • Go to the Operations subtab.
    • Add a Bill: Anesthetize
    • Select your Doctor colonist.
    • Right-click on the animal and choose “Prioritize taking to operate {Name of animal}”.
      • This will cause the colonist to carry the animal to the nearest appropriate animal bed.
        • Click the animal, and their state should now be “Sleeping”.
    • Next, the Doctor colonist may automatically perform the Anesthetization.
      • Otherwise, select the Doctor colonist, right-click the animal and choose to “Prioritize operating on {Name of animal}.”
        • Click the animal, and their state should now be “Unconscious”.
    • Once the animal is in an Unconscious state, select the Doctor colonist again (if unselected).
    • Right-click the animal and choose “Carry {Name of animal} to cryptosleep casket”.
      • This will have them load the animal into am empty cryptosleep casket of their choosing.
    • To verify it worked, click the cryptosleep casket and it should now show that it contains {Name of animal}.
