Oxygen Not Included: Tips For How to Survive

Location, Location, Location

It’s important to keep in mind that the air behaves differently depending what it is. Oxygen will move upward, Carbon Dioxide downward, Contaminated Oxygen tends to go up as well, Hydrogen goes seemingly everywhere, and so on. Thus, you will want to make sure that you build with this in mind.

Cots and planter boxes are best in upper levels, while outhouses and electricity are better in the lower levels. It’s also smart to build your algae terrariums where the carbon dioxide falls, and your oxygen makers in the middle of your colony. Remember to check the oxygen overlay to see where problematic areas are and how you can solve them best.
