Getting plastic with no oil?

[corestandeven]

I'm playing on a volcano asteroid, and there is no oil as far as I can see on the map. I've looked at the bottom, and around in case there might a be random oil well, but seems to be nothing. How are players of this asteroid type meant to get plastic if there is no oil? Or is there some alternative i've missed? I've come across no Slicksters on the map, or in the Random rescue packages..

Or is it intention that some asteroid types you just can't get all the techs available? Without plastic seems to really limit later game options, as there is no alternative substance you can use.

Oil is guaranteeed on all maps.

Go into screenshot mode (alt+s or ctrl+s can't remember which) then zoom out maximum and take a screenshot. Maybe we can find it for you.

There are 2 ways to get plastic:
1) off glossy drecko. They are a variant of drecko that eats mealwood.
2) off petroleum that comes from oil. Oil tends to hang at the near bottom of the asteroid right above the core. Unless you got the irregular oil trait. You know your close when the temperature beyond the fog hits 100+ degrees.

if there is really no oil, then farm dreckos, plant some mealwood (disable harvesting) and after a few cycles you see the chance for glossy drecko eggs rises, then when you have glossy eggs hatch them and use them for plastic, keep in mind they need hydrogen to grow it's fur (mealwood needs oxygen so top hydrogen bottom oxygen)
