How many iceblocks?

[Anja]

What am I doing wrong? I mined to lowest level possible, i have about 70 ice blocks in that room. Unless outside temperature gets under 5C, my room stays above 0C and i cant produce ice.

[joshyrice1]

is it underground?

[Anja]

yes it is underground, on lowest possible level

ice blocks prevent exceeding 4°C.

Dig deep (that you have already done) and wait till cooler temperatures in winter. I can produce underground ice from fall day 10 to spring day 2.

[Anja]

so we can never produce ice during spring and summer?
what's the point of ice then if we cant make freezer rooms?

[Graf Schokola]

The point of ice is: cool down the room to store food. below 4°C food will never spoil in that game.

turn the hallway into another room. there was a guide that explained temp mechanics. also stack clay on surface level of the room(s) in question.

I couldn't see it on your screenshot but have you put a door on the room? If not then the game treats it as outside. Generally I don't even worry about ice as the room, which is only two levels down from surface level, never gets above 4 degrees.

i actually do have more rooms. and yes there is a door.
but my problem is solved i didn't know that food doesnt spoil below 4C. So its ok, i produce ice in winter and its enough to last through summer below 4C. Thanks!
