Best Moisture Vaporator layout?

[Sidereus]

Hello there, I'm about to deplete my nearest underground water source and I'm thinking to build "some" moisture vaporators. I tried to search on reddit a good layout in which vaporators don't influence each other, without success. Can you post your personal moisture vaporators layout? Having many different layouts in this discussion can be really interesting for all those people who are facing the same problem.

The only part that matters is the one tile where the pipes come out of the vaporator. If that tile isn't within the radius of another vaporator then it's fine.

Is it really like that? I though it was as long as any tile occupied by the vape building itself isn't in the effect radius of another vape.

It's not, gimmethegepgun is right. Proof: https://i.imgur.com/I1Lk2rt.jpg

I used to place mine in the corners of "self-sufficient" hexagons with a scrubber in the center:

WIth Green Planet I tend to just place them right next to each other once I need a lot of them. The penalty becomes insignificant once the atmosphere improves, IMO. Especially because you only receive the penalty once per vaporator, no matter how many additional vaporators are in its range.

The body of the building needs to be outside the gray influence zone. As long as you have lots of space and need efficency then place them apart. But dense packing them is fine if space is a consideration.

And dust towers if you've got them.

Only the one hex with the pipes. The rest of it is irrelevant.

If you had copied the other part of the conversation you would have realized that I agreed with gimme.

Your comment can be interpreted in both ways ("is it really like that" - "yes", and "I though it was" - "it is like that"), sorry for interpreting it wrongly. :P
