I'm nearly done with the tech trees, but, not even halfway towards the achievements. Also, I'm still figuring out the sphere manager ship things and making a nice sphere. This planet was initially just my first attempt at charging batteries, but, it's evolving into a fast (to me) solar sail deployer. It has a side gig as a photon maker.
NGL, this is a pretty addicting game.
I was flying somewhere and saw a seed, so I diverted and killed it. I further decided to checkout the system it was heading to. It's jam-packed with resources. All except for water. None of the planets. Any ideas on how to get around this?
Edit: Okay, I get it, the warpers juice up the INTERSTELLAR logistics stations, and enable the ships to leave a solar system. I've already found it so much easier to not have to setup an entire system on a planet now. As long as I have one ILS receiving at minimum of 100 warpers, I just need to beef-up production on the planet making them. This totally changes the game. Thanks for the ELI5, folks!
Pretty much any time I see him on, I just know he's going to lose. Makes me a bit bummed for him. I mean, he doesn't really talk much so there's that. Is his use just going as a filler or something?
Edit: Thanks, folks. I guess I don't feel as bummed for him anymore. I also haven't heard him complain about a title shot either, so there's that. I'd just like to see a good run for him. Then again, i haven't watched for years, since the last few years. Maybe he's had some runs...?
So, I'm up-to deuterium for my fuel. My beginner planet is still a workhorse, but, I've ventured out and found a system about 5LY away that is rich in most resources and no Dark Fog. I have a belt of ray receivers around the equator, but, I'm thinking of moving them to one of the poles, opposite of where my battery buildings are. I actually JUST built my first energy exchanger, just to see what it does.
So, these things just charge the "battery buildings"/accumulators, or USE the charged ones for the energy grid it's attached to. I get that. What's the use of shipping batteries to another planet then? I mean, maybe... something like starting a new "depot" on a planet and bringing a bunch for power? How large do batteries stack? I've only stacked 20 each, for making gas giant collectors. I don't see the benefit versus just bringing some blue generators and a few fuel cell stacks, until you get situated.
Do people also actively maintain multiple systems? I mean I like my starter planet, because it's "Earth-like" and pleasant to my eyes. I like this new planet for the handle I have on building better and its resources in the system, but, none of the planets in the new system and nice on the eyes. What I'm getting at is that I'll probably, sadly, ditch this system too and then what's the point in making tons of batteries and shipping them everywhere?
My grandma used to sometimes take us to a drug store as a kid, to treat us to this ice cream store (sort of like 31 Flavors, Cold Stone, etc.) and I only remember the name "chocolate malted crunch". Has anyone been able to find it?
They replaced some new oaks. I removed all roots, amended the soil with perlite, fert, and some fine topsoil. Also improved drainage with about 6" of marble rock. The only thing different between the two is Mr. Skinny caught some spider mites and ants last year. Along with manual/water spray removals, I treated the soil with a half strength imidacloprid soak.
Oh, what's not shown or seen is that I HAD volcanoed the mulch at first. For the last 8 months or so though I've ensured great Root flare and the brick collars are just resting on the topsoil.
I have them on their own zone with the RainBird and they get 8 mins on Mo/Fri and 2 mins on Tues/Thurs. I don't have the spouts blasting wide open. It's difficult to measure inches per minute with those spouts versus the general grass heads.
Finished
Sorry for the photo bombs. Hopefully, you can see the one I'm talking about. She swims and does stuff normally. I'm chalking it up to old age (most are around 3 years old). I don't really do much water testing anymore but I can if people would like. Everyone is active as usual in the tank and I do bi-weekly top-offs and partial changes about monthly.
Edit:. Sorry folks, just brought it up to my wife and she doesn't want him anywhere in the main tank lol

Here's the post for future people if they have the same question though:
Heya folks, my wife's betta is in a lil 2 gallon next to my 55g community tank. I'm sure he just looks at them and iswondering the title.
It's "stand" his tank is on will be going away soon and I'll have to move him elsewhere. To alleviate the constant water upkeep and hopefully give him a bit more "freedom and community", I was wondering about adding my wife's betta into my community tank.
However, I don't think it's a good idea to give it free reign and was considering buying or making a large (3-5g) isolation/acclimation box, inside my 55g community tank. I'd essentially be creating a sort of separate living area for it, where it can't attack or be attacked, but, share the water and somewhat interact with the other fish. I'd most his substrate decor and plants into his new "cell" with him.
Has anyone done this?
ETA:
I don't really want to let it out of the acclimation tank. It'd be a sort of permanent room for it in the main aquarium.
Someone asked about releasing it into th3 tank at large so...
My wife kinda doesn't really want him "in the wild" with the community. However, here's the stocking:
Greetings fellow humans! I saw a post earlier with a "balloon black ram" and I researched it a bit. I've found it's a good community fish. I'm looking to add a few more to my setup now. I know I need to do some trimming, but, if anyone has suggestions on stocking/adding mates to my setup I'm open to suggestions. Most of the molly fish are nearing "end of life" (about 3 years old). All fish are 3+ years, except the CPDs (about 1 year)
55g, planted
4 or 5 molly fish
5 skirt tetras
6 mixed neon tetras
1 SAE
1 FF
3 Galaxy Rasboras/CPDs
1 snowball pleco L471
Various neocaridina skrimps
POSSIBLY a pom pom crab in there somewhere.
3 nerite snails
There's been more rain here than normal the last couple of weeks. Zone 9b
ETA: I got scared about bird feeders nearby so I encased the entire vine in 1/2" wire fencing.
The shed is about 30 get from the house. Granddaughter and I put her house together for a project to do. I then made one from untreated cedar and put cameras on both.
If the blank wilds aren't defined proper to the start of the game, what is the rule when someone plays them? Is there an official rule for this situation?
