Living on top of a geyser provides warmth enough to 10 degree Celsius, just to escape hypothermia. If your colonists complain about "sleeping in the cold", you tell them to man-up. The two reasons to build a campfire to cook and an emergency extra source of heat when hard snow hits during Winter. Build a wall around (10x10 , the geyser is 6x6 so between the wall and the steam, the 8x8 line will become a one tile surrounding corridor just enough to place beds around), either by emulating a heater in the center of your room or by pulling a one tile corridor towards your home, even possibly digging a tunnel depending on the terrain altitude map of choice. |

+ | Eventually, you should ideally repeat the same geyser-room procedure with other steams in proximity, this is because cold and starvation will not kill you, but mental breaks will. For example, having more than two characters on berserk. | ||

− | + | You will survive in this biome, by sending all to crypto sleep except for the researchers. Be very careful here as occupants cannot eject by themselves and sending them all together won't let you continue playing unless a wandered joins. Hunt every time you see meat, as animals have the tendency to leave the map and won't remain roaming around long. | |

− | + | There's really no need to murder your crew to reduce your numbers, instead, open the ancient structure. Let go of those who don't want to join if your original characters are too wounded by the time you are at this. Attempt capture if conditions are good. How many characters you should have depends on many variants. A suggestion would be the total number of available crypto sleep caskets + 3. Between those three, two of them must be researchers and the other one extra a pawn that can serve the researchers by hunting, butchering and cooking for them. Then in any remaining time he/she would remain idle, join the researchers. Which means building additional two benches. Those that you choose to have them "awake" must have the capacity to '''HAUL'''. Or you won't ever be able to bring back those who you sent to crypto sleep. | |

There will always be variables that won't let any player fix a number of "active" characters at a time. If food is low, you can continue with just both researchers. Less than two, you won't finish electricity research in time. You can also bring everybody else back to activity when circumstances require more people, such as raids. Because of emergencies, it's best if you can send them to crypto sleep with their bellies full and in good mood. You don't want to have them back active with hunger and metal breaks when you need them as back-ups. | There will always be variables that won't let any player fix a number of "active" characters at a time.

− | + | Wanderers welcomed, escape pods welcomed and refugees welcomed. '''The number of crypto sleep caskets + 3 formula''' is very convenient because you may likely suffer some casualties along the way, just be careful not to lose the researchers. If you happen to have the "actives" in too much bad moods, consider switching formation with those in crypto sleep, so as to not lose the pace. Your wood storage shall be your countdown timer. You won't survive the game if you can't get electricity before you run out of wood. | |

− | It's inevitable. Just be very selective when butchering other humans as the character performing the action will receive mood penalties that can easily set it to mental breaks. It is okay if your characters complain of hunger. Again, keep your food supply on check and only feed your people when starvation kicks in, unless of course, their mental break is too dangerous to risk keeping them unhappy. | + | It's inevitable.
