For the traders: You don't need a Com console, but you need a trade beacon to mark the tradable resources..

Thank you it works!

Any idea for my issue with the oil extraction?

How does work the oil extraction? I cannot place the extractor on the oil field, it says that the place is already occupied

Oil Deposits are covered by a chunk of rock that must be mined away (or "claimed" and then deconstructed, but ssh, it's meant to be mined). This can be done simply to allow the Deposit to produce oil on regular occasion. You can then build a pump over them which will cap the Deposit like the Oil Block before it, but you can send someone over to it to pump oil. This can usually be done a couple times a day or two days, a timer on the building when you click on it will inform you if it's ready to be pumped. As to whether the pump is useful over simply letting the Deposit spurt, bearing in mind that you must remember to manually select someone and send them over to use it at regular intervals, I don't know. Later down the line, you can build an Oil Refinery which will produce both Refined Oil (which is worth more and more efficient in gas generators) and a hefty amount of power by simply burning off excess. Refineries are maybe a little OP, you probably won't know what to do with all the oil and very soon, you won't know what to do with all the silver from selling said oil. Building enough gas generators to use all of the oil will generate an extreme amount of power, perfect for those mods like eatKenny's Turret Defence mod where nearly all the turrets consume 1-2k generic units of power each. It WILL drive your colony wealth steadily higher if you cannot use it or sell it. And that's about all I know about exploiting natural crude oil.

Thanks for you both, it works well now

Hi all,

I just started with this nice mode but I have some questions:

1- How works the oil extraction? I cannot place the extractor on the oil field, it says that the place is already occupied. I am not sure about the correct error message.

2- How to trade with the itinerant (on land) traders? I have arround 2000 silvers but I cannot buy someting from them... The error message is : not enough sylver... Do you have a solution for that? Because I cannot purchase CPU module and etc... This annoys me a lot...

Thanks for your help

Oh also, with the new map generator, the only 3 kinds of maps i get is a canyon style map with little free space and huge amounts of rock on two sides, a map with a river and close to no rocks for mining and a winter map that, honestly, hurts my eyes to look at.

So whenever I start a new game I have to start over and over again until I get a river map with enough rocks to sustain a base. Don't get me wrong, I love your mod (collection) and I can't thank you more for all the work you do but at the moment the map generator feature is pretty annoying

You should be getting several more type of maps, including the original map gen, the files are all in place, and it is working for me, So i'm not really sure why it wouldn't be working for you. Is anyone else having this problem ? also, to remove the non default mapgens, for those that feel they must, you can go into Mods\AIOMod\Defs\MapGeneratorDefs and delete everything except the AIOMapgen file, Then it should only generate the default map. However if this breaks something, dont blame me

Hey,

I have the same problem  , I tried many times yesterday night by I had only these 3 types of maps... and he took a while each time with the configuration of my settlers...

Any solutions?
