Terraformation screen question

[štrukelj]

When all other resources have + sign and Oxygen doesn't ... does this mean anything ?

And what to do with Tree Barks ?

many thanks ... btw. my base is the best.

1+2+3+4 = 10
why does the 1 have no + sign?

If oxygen gets invited to a party by pressure is it a plus one then?

[štrukelj]

Sorry i don't understand.

[Coops]

Really?
O+H+P+B =T
The plus sign is for addition. Oxygen plus heat plus pressure plus biomass equals Terraforming index.
In a formula, the first term does not get a plus sign.
I cannot make it any clearer than that. It's basic math.

[štrukelj]

Thats's it ... it looks awkward i must say. Thanks !

It is closer to:
O
H
P
+ B
___
T
(the underline didn't want to work but you get the idea)
The way it is, is just confusing. I thought it might mean your oxygen production is ahead of the temp, pressure, and biomass.

If that truly is the formula it would mean that Venus would have a high Terraform index because it is hundreds of degrees too hot for humans, has 90 times the atmospheric pressure of earth and almost no free Oxygen. It doesn't sound like a great place to live.

IMHO: The game would be more fun if you needed to balance your terraforming efforts to reach milestones.

It would hurt re playability of the game.

Knowing there is only one way to get things to progress, reduces the likelihood of people wanting to play again.

If there was only one way to hit milestones, I would have already stopped playing this game.

Tree bark is used with flowers and mutagen to create trees that you can then put in a tree spreader to boost up oxygen and plants.

Do wish they can make a combined tree and flower spreader, like to make places look nice.
