Useful for quick spatial sketches of room layouts and "pipe spaghetti" management.
Drafting a layout or "paper" plan for Oxygen Not Included (ONI) is a common strategy to manage its high complexity. Because the game requires managing thermodynamic systems, gas ratios, and power grids simultaneously, players often use external tools like or graph paper to design systems before building them in-game. Essential Systems to Draft oxygen not included
To ensure your base is sustainable, factor these rates into your plan: Oxygen Not Included - Tutorial Bites - Rooms Useful for quick spatial sketches of room layouts
A Self-Powered Oxygen Machine (SPOM) typically uses Electrolyzers to split water into oxygen and hydrogen. Draft a design that uses a "gas-sorting" dome: hydrogen rises to the top to power a Hydrogen Generator , while oxygen is cooled and pumped to your base. Essential Systems to Draft To ensure your base
Draft a "Main Spine" using Heavi-Watt Wire to connect all generators. Use Transformers to step down the power to standard wire for individual rooms to prevent circuit overloads and wire damage.
Standardize room heights at 4 tiles high . This allows Duplicants to reach the ceiling for construction and maintenance without extra scaffolding.
