• Setting early game priorities for the duplicants. I usually forbid decoration at early stages since without advanced skills end product will not contribute to decor much.
• Regardless of what tasks you prioritize for the duplicants, unless you have few who are dedicated to tasks like Life Support, Tidying, Supplying, etc. do not arrange the prioritization in such a way that these tasks come to a halt.
• At this point, it is important to keep the number of duplicants low, and decide on the first one to add to the base, in this case the need was an additional builder, or Ops
• When you are expanding the population, make sure you can provide the basics (i.e. bedroom, a table in the Mess Hall/Great Hall, enough food production, etc. Do not add new duplicants before these are ready.
• The way I setup the Water Sieve with a container and pipe shut off is to make sure that the excess water is pushed out for the plants. Bathroom setup outputs more polluted water than its water intake, and unless managed, the surplus will clog the piping.
• At this point it became clear that this base may not have access to reed fiber at all, which means though I left space for atmo suit docks, taming the geysers will have to proceed without them - which will take forever.
