Welcome back. In this guide, I will show You how to construct an efficient geothermal installation around the volcano in-game of Oxygen not Included & how to get a lot of electricity and building materials from the magma volcano.
Introduction
Dames & Heren, welcome to this complete new chapter of my guides.
Here you can find a true complete schematic for the geothermal/nuclear power plant based on the volcano. The guide is targeted at advanced players: those who know all the basics in the game Oxygen not Included.
As well you can find a step-by-step guide on how to build and launch this megastructure safely.
P.S I have been making this guide for about a month in my free time. I did it for You and for me free of charge. So please be respectful to me and to the others, and have fun…
General shape
– using the asteroid gravitation to collect and transfer the hot magma from the volcano.
– infinite storage is using a “secret game feature” to store an infinite amount of magma and to keep the volcano never clogged(see further).
– 6 turbines and a lot of steam are used to convert the heat from magma to electricity(maximum output of 5100 W)
– The controllable heat exchanger is regulating the temperature of the steam
– The magma cooler is equipped with an automated cleaning system
– An option to locate the nuclear reactor inside
– completely automated no duplicates attention needed during the operation
– only the start/pause button
– suitable for use as the main power plant of the colony

Building sequence 1 – Storage
Annotation:
– From what to begin building?
– how to build infinite magma storage?
– How does the full storage work
1:26– Three main functional parts of the plant.
1:49– The first step after you have found the suitable volcano.
2:13– Making the storage shape(What/where/why?)
3:47– how does the infinite magma storage look?
3:51– creating the hydro-lock & pumping out the gas(when/why?)
4:10– building automation for storage and analyzing the volcano?
5:46– when can we start using storage & what to do when the volcano is still idle?
6:04– how does the storage work & Is it a secret trick to making it infinite?
Building sequence 2 – Plant
Annotation:
In this chapter, we will continue building the geothermal installation core(the heat exchanger), a few pipes, a few doors, some robot miners, and a lot of automation and then we will launch it to haven)
0:50– Building the magma transfer line
1:54– Building the heat exchanger
3:47– Constructing the steam pressurized storage
6:22– when to start vacuuming the pressurized storage?
7:19– Placing of sensors
8:19– Pipes from/for turbines placement
11:38– building the “Magma core” cleaning system(shipping system)
13:10– AAAutomaaaaaaation built
14:02– The starting sequence
15:55– The useful secret of the construction
16:59– A hint of how to use the turbines wisely
17:33– after removing this last tile there is no way back
19:16– Some explanations of how the automation work in each phase
22:19– Where is the button to pause the system?
23:04– advantages and disadvantages of the system
24:41– a reminder about making your own lovely turbine cooling circuit
How many materials does it cost?
Valuable materials:
Obsidian = 8700 kg
Ceramics = 16700 kg(approximately without saving on corners)
Steel = +-6000 kg(including automation )
Plastic = 1200 kg
Other materials:
– Aluminium 3450 kg (excluding turbine costs)
– Refined metals
– oil or viscogel
– some raw minerals
Other important and very important information
In this chapter lists everything what I wanted to add about the guide but not in the video:
1. Use the drawings from this guide during your build order for this geothermal installation. Especially the one for automation systems.
2. The temperature shift plates(thermal plates) with the last game update(SweetDreams) got a hidden change of meta and they now under certain conditions conduct the temperature even through the ceramics. I found it occasionally when I was finishing this guide. Thus they are NOT advised to be inside the magma cooler position.
3. The game balance meta changed with the logic gates and bridges. They now transfer the heat through the ceramic walls. and this is considered in this guide. But please be careful to build logic gates in a vacuum & don’t play with magma without saving…
3. Before making any serious step further in your project(like opening the volcano or pumping out the gas) think and save.
4. If you are “a newbie” in this game(<1500 cycles) use this guide only for reference and don’t cry about obvious things that were not mentioned here.
5. If you found some alterations between the video and the guide please know that the guide drawings and schematics are up to date & I will not re-upload my video every time the devs made hidden changes in the game balance. BUT I will update the steam guide and the schematics.
That's everything we are sharing today for this Oxygen Not Included guide. This guide was originally created and written by Фантастична Фея. In case we fail to update this guide, you can find the latest update by following this link.
