Overview
Tired of watching your colonists die of starvation while in sight of food? Your head sore from pounding it on the keyboard? Here’s a simple starting walkthrough.
Welcome to Bataan!
So you signed up for the Bataan death march, you wish.
To begin: Your colonists are not stupid; they just know all their actions are futile. At the start of the colony their lives are literally measured in footsteps. You must aggressively reduce their workload! Don’t even add that extra door to the first room! If this inspires you to try again, then don’t read any further.
First Steps
Minimize the number of new rooms!
- 1. Convert the Generic Room with the air-lock into a Workshop.
2. Place a workbench and two smelters in the room.
3. Place a wind turbine outside.
4. In the closest empty space, build a Livestock Containment. Interact with the room and set the
number of animals at 2 or greater.
5. Dig out a new space.
6. Build Living Space
7. Place two beds and a Food Preparation center.
8. Interact with the Storage Room. Limit the number of building materials.
Things are still going to be touch and go! But, you now have a compact base with all the essentials.
