Planet Crafter: Lakes Stage

Limited oxygen, some lakes and rivers, limited food and water in crates and wrecks.
Some caves become more accessible as ice melts.

 

Small lakes starting forming around 15 MTi (during the liquid water phase). The Starting Valley reaches full lake level (up to the height of 25) officially at 50 MTi.

Waterfalls start appearing in the Ice Fields/Grasslands

A lake starts forming in the Gate Desert

A lake starts forming in the Waterfall biome

 

Goals:

• Launch some plant rockets.
• Upgrade algae generators and flower spreaders ASAP. The higher tier versions are a big improvement.
• Microchips unlock some new deconstruction tools and GPS satellites etc. - check out the map and revisit shipwrecks to discover more loot and secrets.
• Fuses can be used in a machine optimizer to boost the effects (energy, heat, oxygen, pressure etc.) of nearby utilities, similar to rockets.
