Oxygen Farm Questions
Do oxygen generators farms generate oxygen when behind windows? I've done some tests to see if they do and it appears that they don't. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong because it really seems like they should.

Well from my experience as long as you have a vent going into the area to pump oxygen it doesn't matter where the oxygen generator is you just have to have the event with some sort of connector to the oxygen generator

Oxygen Farms have to be outside and have sunlight for it to function. Placing it behind windows will not work. One of the best methods to use Oxygen Farms is by using an advanced rotor and using conveyors and using a script to track the sun. Build a solar array with solar panels and Oxygen Farms

Hmm. They really should work through windows. It would make more sense.

I think it has to do with the fact that the oxygen farms are meant to be placed outside since it has glass already on it. Maybe having a version that does not could be made. Maybe using potted plants or trees that have access to the sunlight when they are placed near windows.
