Even though Oxygen Not Included OIL UPGRADE is not yet live (just over a week to go), I just had to start a new base to try out all the new things. It's a bit of a slow start but I'm really enjoying the new room types like  Latrine, Barracks, Mess Hall & Med Bay. I hope they add a "farm" and "storage" room type and others.

In this episode I build out the fertilizer synthesizers to consume our waste polluted water and also build out the natural gas generator power plant fed from the natural gas geyser.

Immunity did take a hit on one of the dupes (Ren) but after some rest in the base and use of the pharma chamber and apothecary he was ready for slime digging action again.
