Missing main AC compressor at floor -1...

Anyway, the place for this guide should be the guide section.

Nice. I did the same thing in an early test game. It got bigger, but I can't find the save file for the larger tower. :)

I can just delete it if you're unhappy with it.

Leave it! Love the cooling tower. :)

No one asked to delete it. I just suggested to place it on guide section so all people can easily found it.

I was just thinking about this idea the other day, but hadn't actually built it yet -- thanks so much for posting! (And now I have confirmation that it works! XD )

Now that's thinking out of the box :hromehappy:

So, question. Did you place the compressor yet in the B1 basement? I don't see it in your screenshots, and according to the patch notes you can't place the other units until the compressor has been placed. I'd imagine that's the problem.

NEVER had to place it in basement before, couldn't.

Yeah, but that was technically a bug. The compressor was supposed to be required from the beginning, but it was just an oversight that left it so you could build the others without it. That's why they updated it in the patch notes so it's now acting the way it was supposed to from the beginning. You should still be able to do it in your AC tower by just placing it anywhere in the B1 basement and you're good to go. :D

I'm honestly confused if you really can't place it in the basement. At that point the devs would need to take a look at it, because there's absolutely no reason why it shouldn't work as long as you have the space and money to place it.

Anyway, sleep well and I'm sure we'll make some progress on it tomorrow. :)

That's right! The intended order of operations is: first you place a compressor in the basement (level -1 specifically), and then vents on the sides from then on.

Build 1.5.0 did have a bug where you could place vents without a compressor, but then they wouldn't work right :(

As I see in your pictrure, you don't try to place it on the edge of the building. Try placing it one space to the left, on the real edge of the buidling.
The small deco on the left does not count as the unit, the proper unit is only the 4 tiles with the engine.
