Pressure going up super slow?

[MrWiggly [TLS]]

Do drills just take ages to generate pressure or is there a trick to placing them i am not seeing?

ATM i have them all bunched up, is this wrong? Or is it just really slow?

Pressure taes long time yes... BUt look at this perspective it would take long time to make af habitable pressure on a planet.

Just push heat until you can get T4 drill and put in 4 to 5 of them.

done that, got like 6-7 of them, but its still going super super slow compared to heat and O2

Once you hit about 1.5 it won't go up much higher. I've added about 4 more T4 drills and it's only up to 1.69.

Have you unlocked the rockets yet? Send up a few rockets to increase pressure and it'll start banging along

Yeah you can build "PRESSSURE" rocket and when you send it to the space you got 1000% to pressure generation.

There are cycles where the levels seem to slow to a crawl either as you get close to an upgrade or when the information screen shifts to the next phase of numbering. For example if you're producing O2 at 60,000 parts per quadrillion then once the terraform screen goes from per billion into per million the number will barely move.

If power's not going to be a problem build the tech that either increases pressure or build the tech that will result in unlocking a higher grade drill. If power is a problem then look into what rockets you can make, wreck diving can help a ton with this as most if not all my engines have come from loot.

Build multiple Magnetic Field Protection Rockets. I launched 3 already, and the Pressure is going tremendously faster (+3000% actually). Tjat's... fast :) The more T3 and T4 Drills you have the better of course.
I thought at first that the 1000% pressure boost would last an Iridium Meteor shower, but nope, the boost seems to last forever, and can definitively be cumulated. The more Drills, the more Magnetic Field Protection Rockets : the better.

After days of playing, I was at 23mPa of Pressure. I just launched 3 rockets (took me about 30 minutes probably) and I'm already at 137 mPa. (much much) More in 30 minutes than in hours and hours of using only the Drills.
