Основы Ботаники
Гидропоника и ботаники работающие там важны для станции, особенно в долгих раундах. Ботаники выращивают растения, которые Повар может использовать для приготовления пищи. Без ботаники, станции прийдётся жить на вяленой говядине и космических твинки, или умереть с голоду.
Ваш отдел
Гидропоника разделена на две части. Большая южная секция та, где вы будете проводить много времени выращивая продукты. Гидропонные желобы доступны для выращивания растений, и два торговых автомата, один с семенами, другой с разными вещами, как удобрения и инструменты. Биогенератор используется для измельчения растений и производства вещей для станции. В паре с раздатчиком семян применяется для повторного производства. В северной зоне вы можете найти все нужные инструменты для работы в гидропонике.
Растениям нужна вода и удобрения для роста. Также им докучают сорняки и вредители. В желоба изначально установлены датчики со специальными лампочками, сообщающие вам что происходит с вашим растением.
Слева направо -
- Зеленый: Готово к сбору.
- Красный: Низкое здоровье.
- Мерцающий красный: Сорняки/вредители/токсины.
- Жёлтый: Низкий уровень удобрений.
- Синий: Низкий уровень воды.
Инструменты используемые в ботанике -
- Гаечный ключ: Для перемещения желобов и не только.
- Кусачки: Для прокладки ирригации. Если 30ед. или больше воды выливают в желоб когда проложена ирригация, вода равномерно распределится между желобами. Также распределит вещества вроде мутагена и "plant killer".
- Топорик: Рубит брёвна (tower-caps) в доски, рубит другие штуки. Хорошая штука для робаста, помещающаяся в рюкзаке.
- Лопата: Вскапывает травяной пол. Используется для выкапывания растений.
- Культиватор: Убирает сорняки.
- Сумка для растений (Plant Bag): Может содержать до 50 овощей или 100 семян.
- Портативный изыматель семян (Portable Seed Extractor): Можно найти в шкафчиках подсобки, может собрать, переработать растения, а также хранить в себе до 100 семян.
Plants 101
Возьмите семена из автомата и посадите в желоб. Убедитесь, что они хорошо политы, удобрены и прополоты.Некоторые растения растут быстрее, некоторые медленнее. Пшеница растёт быстрее, в то время как арбузы или яблоки требуют больше времени, чтоб дать урожай. Sometimes these and other stats of a plant are effected if you ignore them after the light warns you of their status. You have a choice of 5 nutriments depending on if you hacked your machine or not. Once your tray flashes green, you're set to harvest. If you want to replicate the plant to continue growing more, just insert it into the seed extractor.
Biogenerators
Биогенератор создаёт вещи из питательных веществ (nutriment) в плодах, как арбузы или тыквы с геном производства 20% питательных веществ. Чтобы получить биомассу, возьмите ведро и поместите его в машину, когда ведро внутри положите растения внутрь. Откройте интерфейс и переработайте растения. Если в торговых автоматах закончится удобрение помните, вы всегда можете напечатать стандартные удобрения тут. Вы можете переработать любое растение (кроме крапивы), даже не имеющего питательных веществ, но в таком случае эффективность будет низка.
DNA Extractor
Note: Sometimes these don't appear in outdated maps, if this is the case, you can adminhelp and see if they will put one if they are nice
A recent addition, this allows you to extract genes and stats from seeds. This is a very useful machine for mass producing plants, saving time and is super easy.
Как использовать: 1. Идите к шкафчикам и возьмите коробку с дискетами (box of plant data disks) 2. Загрузите диск в машину вместе с семенами на выбор 3. Изымите нужный ген (extract) (семя будет уничтожено) 4. Вставьте другое семя 5. Теперь вы можете оперировать с его генами на основе записанных на диске.
Полезные семена для увеличения производительности:
- On some maps, there's wheat on the table, this wheat has 50 потенции и 1 production speed
- Древесина (Treecaps) появляется с большой выносливостью, сопротивляемостью и 50 потенции
- Табак в автомате имеет 10 урожайности
- Пшеница в автомате имеет 1 скорость производства
- В самом начале DNA modifier может хранить 50 потенции на диске, задалбывайте научный отдел чтобы улучшили вашу технику и вы могли хранить по 95 потенции
Растения
Существует 3 типа растения. Самая большая категория это "нормальные растения". Поменьше грибы и сорняки. Они немного отличаются от обычных растений:
- Грибам нужно меньше света, они менее страдают от его нехватки.
- Грибам не нужна вода для роста. Всё же они её потребляют.
- Сорняки не страдают от высокого уровня сорняков.
- Грибы и сорняки не могут быть захвачены сорняками в желобе.
- Урожайность грибов не может упасть до 0. Всегда будет по крайней мере 1.
Желобы, пустые или занятые обычными растениями могут случайно быть заняты, если уровень сорняков 5 или больше. В этом случае старое растение уничтожается и на его месте вырастает новое. Новые растения могут быть:
- 1/6 шанс на Reishi.
- 1/9 шанс на Nettle.
- 1/9 шанс на Harebell.
- 1/9 шанс на Amanita.
- 1/9 шанс на Chanterelle.
- 1/9 шанс на Tower Cap.
- 1/9 шанс на Plump Helmets.
- 1/6 шанс на Starthistle.
Here's a chart for reference on what you can grow.

Химикаты
Удобрения
- E-Z-Nutrient: Мутирует ваше растение один раз за урожай, не влияет на урожайность.
- Left 4 Zed: Мутирует ваше растение дважды за урожай, Но растение будет производить максимум 1 плод - если урожайность 0, тогда ничего производить не будет. Нужно будет использовать другое удобрение чтобы собрать достаточно растений.
- Robust Harvest: Заставляет растение производить при сборе в 2 раза больше, и не мутирует его. Полезно если у вашего растения хорошие характеристики, или вы использовали нестабильный мутаген, и хотите чтобы случайные мутации не мешали, или не хотите заниматься мутированием вовсе.
- Питательные вещества: Удобрение. Можете взять у Шефа, или используя собственные растения. Лечит растение.
- Ammonia: Также удобрение, с таким же эффектом как питательные вещества. Возьмите у Химика или взломайте Nutri-Vend чтобы получить.
- Diethylamine: Очень мощное удобрение. Вдвойне эффективное, это означает 1 unit diethylamine добавляет 2 units удобрения. Лечит растение и убивает вредителей. Получается теми же способами что и Ammonia.
Уничтожение вредителей
- Pest Killer: убивает вредителей, добавляет немного токсичности.
- Weed Killer: Тоже самое, только с сорняками.
Характеристикм
- Unstable Mutagen: Используется для случайных мутаций без нанесения урона токсинами растению. Используйте по 1 или 2 для оптимизации результатов.
- Radium и Uranium: такой же шанс мутировать растение, но вам нужно 10 units, наносит урон растению и повышает токсичность.
- Saltpeter: Попросите химиков сделать, повышает потенцию и имеет шанс повысить урожайность.
Лекарства для растений
- Charcoal: делает растение менее токсичным. Можете получить наныв у любого работника Медбея.
- Cryoxadone: Лечит растение будто чудесами. Понижает токсичность. Возьмите у Химика, или найдите хорошего доктора, что сворует из криогенных труб
- Святая вода: Если вам удалось привлечь внимание Священника и заставить освятить вам воду, она будет немного лечить ваши растения.
- Ash: Лечит растение и добавляет удобрений. Убивает сорняки.
- Saltpetre: лечит растение, увеличивает потенцию и снижает время производства.
Убийца растений
- Plant-B-Gone: Наносит большой урон растению. Магическим образом снижает токсичность и уничтожает сорняки.
- Toxins, Acids, Fluorine, Chlorine: Наносит урон растению.
- Sugar: Заставляет вредителей и сорняки расти сильнее. Конечно если вы не планируете использовать немного мутагена чтобы выпустить гигантских пауков на станцию, это бесполезно.
- Phosphorus: наносит урон растению, иссушает воду, убивает вредителей и, к удивлению, добавляет питания. Если у вас будет много фосфора вы сможете убивать ненужные растения не навредив следующему растению.
Продвинутая ботаника
Возможно вы хотите вырастить нечто более впечатляющее, нежели мелкая картошка, которую произвело ваше растение. Or Или возможно вам не повезло и вы собрали урожай из одного плода. Характеристики растения описывают это всё и больше, и настоящие ботаники не обеспокоены ИГРАЙ В БОГА и измени их!
Характеристики
Используй анализатор растений на побег. Получишь нечто подобное:
- Plant Age: 5
- Plant Endurance: 15
- Plant Lifespan: 25
- Plant Yield: 4
- Plant Production: 1
- Plant Potency: 5
- Weed level: 2/10
- Pest level: 3/10
- Toxicity level: 0/100
- Water level: 86/100
- Nutrition level: 7/10
Также можете просканировать плоды:
- Plant type: Normal plant
- Potency: 5
- Yield: 4
- Maturation speed: 6
- Production speed: 1
- Endurance: 15
- Nutritional value: 1
- Other substances: 0
И семена (также можете увидеть характеристики в хранилище растений):
- Plant Endurance: 15
- Plant Lifespan: 25
- Species Discovery Value: 0
- Plant Yield: 4
- Plant Production: 1
- Plant Potency: 5
Названия могут быть сбивающими с толку на первый взгляд, но стоит разобраться:
- Age: Возраст растения. Релевантно в условиях характеристики lifespan.
- Endurance: максимальное здоровье. Между 10 и 100. Не слишком полезно, кроме как если вы слишком часто покидаете сад.
- Lifespan: Когда возраст начинает превышать эту характеристику, растение начинает терять здоровье между 10 и 100. Неважно если урожай можно собрать лишь раз, кроме как если они не умрут до сбора. Практически бесполезно для других, потому что вы можете посадить их снова.
- Yield: How much product you get each harvest. Between 0 and 10. Pay attention to this, because if it drops to 0, you won't harvest anything.
- Maturation Speed: Age cycles before the plant can start production. The first harvest will be (Maturation Speed + Production Speed).
- Production Speed: How fast your plant reaches harvest. Between 1 and 10 -- the lower the faster. The plant has to wait (Production Speed) age cycles before each harvest.
- Potency: The most important stat. Between 0 and 100. Basically, this determines plant power. Mostly affects the amount of chemicals in the plant, though some have additional effects, such as stun length for bananas. To get the amount of a given chemical in a plant, multiply the reagent in the chart by the potency: for example, 10% nutriment will be 5 nutriment at 50 potency.
Traits
Some plants have special traits, that can be tranferred through the Plant DNA Manipulator.
- Bioluminescence: Causes the plant to glow, emitting light equal to 10% of potency.
- Bluespace Activity: Gives the plant bluespace properties, making it teleport people hit if the plant has Liquid Contents, and on slip if it has Slippery Skin.
- Capacitive Cell Production: Plants with this trait can be made into batteries with the addition of wire. Electrical Activity increases the cell's maximum charge.
- Densified Chemicals: Doubles the reagent capacity of the plant.
- Electrical Activity: Gives the plant electrical charge, making it recharge batteries when used; it will also electrocute on slip if it also has Slippery Skin and on hit if it has Liquid Contents.
- Fungal Vitality: The plant acquires mushroom-like properties, making it not need light or water.
- Gaseous Decomposition: Plants with this trait emit a smoke cloud when squashed, spewing reagents everywhere. Requires Liquid Contents to be useful.
- Hypodermic Prickles: Plants with this trait will sting when thrown, transferring a portion of their chemicals to the target.
- Liquid Contents: Causes the plant to squash when thrown, applying the reagents inside on the target and destroying the plant.
- Perennial Growth: Plants with this trait can be harvested more than once.
- Shadow Emission: Causes the plant to emit slightly purple shadows.
- Separated Chemicals: Makes plant reagents not react until squashed.
- Slippery Skin: Causes the plant, or any products of the plant, to become slippery. The stun time is (Potency * 0.08), divided by 3 unless the plant has lube or is a banana. Maximum stun is 7 seconds.
- Strong Bioluminescence: Causes the plant to glow, emitting light equal to 20% of potency.
- Weed Adaptation: The plant acquires weed-like properties, making it not need nutrients and immune to weeds in the tray.
Mutations
To change the stats, you need to mutate your plant. Keep in mind that mutations are completely random, but you can do a more efficient job depending on how much you're willing to cooperate with other departments.
- Of your starting fertilizers, E-Z Nutriment makes the plant mutate once every time it's ready to harvest. Left 4 Zed makes it mutate twice, but you'll have to replace the nutriment to actually harvest something! Finally, regular nutriment has a very small chance to mutate the plant into a different specie.
- You can speed up the process by asking the chemist for some unstable mutagen. The effects of mutagen depend on how much you use. Best applied after transferring it to an empty fertiliser bottle, for greater control over amount used (Right-click > Set transfer amount). Pour 5 units on your plant and prepare for...
- 10% chance of the plant losing lots of health instantly. The plant can die because of this
- 10% chance of mutation into a related species. This destroys the old plant and plants a new one. See the plants table for the information on these mutations.
- 15% chance of heavy stat mutation with a 3% chance of a new trait appearing.
- 15% chance of normal stat mutation.
- 20% chance of nothing. You get a message when this happens.
- 10% chance of weeds mutating. If weed level is less than 5, nothing happens, otherwise you get a random mutated weed.
- 10% chance of pests mutating. Again, if pest level is less than 5, nothing happens. Otherwise, three spiderlings are spawned. Shout for help and try to explain to security why you didn't use pest spray.
Or, if you don't want to bother with species mutation, pour 2 units for a guaranteed heavy stat mutation with a 3% chance of a new trait appearing, or even 1 for a guaranteed normal stat mutation. This method is safe even if you don't have backup seeds, but you need a dropper for this.
- You can use radium and uranium, but they cause ill effects, and if you can get radium, you can get mutagen.
- R&D can also make a wonderful thing called a Floral Somatoray. It has two options: increase yield and mutate the plant. In yield more mode, every time you fire it at the plant, there is a chance the yield will increase. The chance becomes very small when you reach high levels, but it's very useful for low-yield plants. It can even raise yield from zero! In mutation mode, it will always induce a normal stat mutation.
Replica Pod Cloning
Replica pod is a very special plant. It can be used to grow dead people back to life, in the case that genetics is destroyed. To clone someone, follow these simple steps:
- Take a blood sample from the body using a syringe.
- Inject it into the bag of seeds.
- Plant the seeds.
- Let the plant grow and harvest it.
A cloned person will become a fully grown diona.
If you grow a replica pod without any blood, there's a chance that it will produce more than one seed, and this chance depends on both luck and the plant's yield. Cabbage can be mutated into a replica pod.
Beekeeping
So, you want to keep those little flying demons and extract their sweet honey? First you need to request a Beekeeping starting kit from your local cargo bay. The starter kit will contain the items that you will need to create a happy bee colony from scratch. We'll get through all of them later. Before we begin, keep in mind that when a starter kit is ordered from cargo you are expected to have complete responsibility for the bees in your future colony, so don't fuck up!
Preparing Your New Colony
Now that your crate has arrived it's time to get your hands dirty! Take your crate and head to the desired place where your colony will reside and open it there. Of course, as a botanist, the obvious place will be at hydroponics. Lets set up the apiary.
Aaand... Your first colony is ready!
Apiary Management
If you right-click and examine your apiary, it'll show some stats. The resource supply represents the amount of honey contained in the apiary. You need to have plants around your apiary so the bees can produce resources. While the bees fly around the plants the resource supply will rise, simple as that. When you check the apiary, it'll show the amount of resources needed to create a new honeycomb or a new bee in the moment that you checked it. A new bee costs 50 resources, while a new honeycomb costs 100 resources. These honeycombs can be ground up into honey, a sweet substance that has minor healing properties, and can be used to make certain foods and drinks.
Genetic Manipulation
The queen bee can also be injected with chemicals to cause the resulting bees to have special properties. To do so, simply use a syringe with the chemical of your choice on the queen bee before putting it in the apiary. You can change the queen's chemical as many times as you want. When a bee is created from an altered queen, it'll carry the same chemical that the queen was injected with.
When a bee visits a plants, it'll inject a small portion of that chemical into the plant, essentially creating a somewhat automated chemical distribute system. Great for chemicals that heal plants or boost productivity. In addition, when a honeycomb is created by an altered bee, half of its chemical content will be the same as the chemical injected in the bee, with the other half being honey. This creates an easy method of 'farming' chemicals that may be hard to get. The last effect that the chemical will have is the bee sting. When stung, a small amount of chemical will be delivered in the sting. Although not an ideal method, this can be used to inject people with healing chemicals, or possibly harmful chemicals for those traitors looking to cause chaos.
Keep'em Tame
Better protect your apiary, a single greytide can disrupt the bees and throw them in a rampage. That said, desrupting a colony can be done by attacking the apiary or attacking the bees directly. Keep the bees in their assigned space and don't let them roam around the station, they'll 100% cause trouble if that happens. Although, with the overpopulation problem there is no way you will be able to control ALL the bees. Expect the crew to see the insects at least one time flying around outside Hydroponics. Equip the beekeeper suit and hat in case they get angry!
Other Notes
Kudzu
Kudzu is a special plant that can appear as a random event or you can grow it by adding Unstable Mutagen to a tray filled with weeds. (That might result in other weed-type plants, too.) It is a type of space vine that grows and mutates on its own.
Usual plant stats affect active kudzu in the specific way:
- Potency: The higher the potency, the more the kudzu will mutate on spread. The chance to mutate on each new piece is [potency / 10].
- Production Speed: It determines how fast the kudzu spreads. By default, it spreads at a rate of 20% of the amount of pieces per tick but no more than 30. Production Speed changes the cap by [30 * production / 50] and the percent of processed pieces per tick by [20 * (production / 50)].
Killing the last piece of kudzu will create a kudzu seed on its place with all the mutations of the piece saved in the seed, so if you reactivate it, the new first piece will have all the same mutations the seed has and will spread it to all the progenitors. Kudzu can gain mutations on spread or by adding special chemicals to it while the seed is growing (see below).
Mutations
Positive
Color | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
Glassy | Makes the kudzu occasionally drop a glass sheet upon destroying it. | |
Glimmering | Makes the kudzu occasionally drop a diamond, gold, or silver sheet upon destroying it. | |
Light | Makes the kudzu emit light. | |
Metallic | Makes the kudzu occasionally drop a metal sheet upon destroying it. | |
Plasticine | Makes the kudzu occasionally drop a plastic sheet upon destroying it. | |
Space Protective | Makes the kudzu grow in space. | |
Transparency | Makes the kudzu transparent. | |
Wooden | Makes the kudzu occasionally drop a wood sheet upon destroying it. |
Minor Negative
Color | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
Bluespace | Makes the kudzu grow through walls and objects. | |
Fireproof | Makes the kudzu resistant to every kind of fire (including plasma fire). | |
Vine-Eating | Makes the kudzu eat every non-vine-eating kudzu tiles. | |
Virulently Spreading | Makes the kudzu spread thicker. |
Negative
Color | Name | Description |
---|---|---|
Aggressive Spreading | Makes the kudzu deal a small explosion upon spreading, destroying windows and other weak objects. It cannot get through reinforced walls. | |
Explosive | Makes the kudzu explode upon death. It induces a chain reaction. | |
Flowering | Makes the kudzu occasionally spawn aggressive flower buds. Every tile can snare passersby. | |
Hardened | Makes the kudzu resistant to sharp objects (halves their damage). Every hardened tile has doubled health. | |
Thorny | Makes the kudzu deal brute damage to whoever passing its tiles or dealing damage to it. | |
Toxic | Makes the kudzu deal toxic damage to whoever passing its tiles or eating it. |
Mutating Kudzu
Adding special chemicals to the tray when the seeds are growing will affect the specific kudzu mutations:
- Adding 5u of welding fuel will remove random positive mutation with a 20% probability
- Adding 5u of phenol will remove a random minor negative mutation with a 20% probability
- Adding 5u of sterilizine will remove a random negative mutation with a 20% probability
- Adding 15u of blood will change the production value of the seeds by a random number in the range from -5 to +15
- Adding 5u of amatoxin will change the production value of the seeds by a random number in the range from -15 to +5
- Adding 5u of plasma will change the potency value of the seeds by a random number in the range from -15 to +5
- Adding 10u of holy water will change a potency value of the seeds by a random number in the range from -5 to +15
Notes
- Scythes, sharp objects, and fire deals four times more damage to kudzu.
- Crossing kudzu can snare the crosser, but it doesn't deal damage. Unless it has the Thorny or Toxic mutations.
- Only destroying every vine tile stops the kudzu from spreading.
- The Chef's goat can destroy vines rapidly.
- Vines cannot spread diagonally.
- One tile can only capture one person.
- Glyphosate can wither kudzu with a 50% chance. You can find it in Plant-B-Gone bottles or make it with a Chem Dispenser.
- Aliens do not slash vines upon attacking them but eat them.
Sandstone and Soil
If you pick up the grass and use it (click on it in your hand), you will prepare astroturf. Get a crowbar and remove some floor tiles, then place astroturf in their place. In addition to looking nice, it can be used to get some sand. Just dig it with your spade and you'll get two piles. Now, pick up the sand and use it; you will make a sandstone brick. Using three bricks, you can make a soil plot, which is like a tray, except you can walk over it and there are no lights. You can also build a sandstone door with 10 bricks.
Science can build hydroponics trays. They can also upgrade them by replacing the matter bins, and this increases the water and nutrient capacity of the tray.
Ambrosia Gaia leaves can be added to soil plots to make them self sustaining, the same way you can make hydroponics trays self sustaining.
Wood and Drying Racks
First you need to get some tower-caps, grow them and harvest them. You can then use hatchet (and some other things, but it's not important) on the logs to chop some planks. They have many uses: you can make chairs, tables, wooden floors and so on. A unique thing here is a drying rack. You can use it to dry a plant, and then smoke it. First, build a rack with 10 planks. Then, grab a plant you want to dry and put it in the rack. Click on the rack and toggle drying so that the red arrows light up. Give it a few seconds and it's done.
Note: you can dry any plant, and smoking it will give you all chemicals that were in it. You can smoke dried apples if you want, and get nutriment from them.
Unique things to do with plants
- Add some cable to a plant with Capacitive Cell Production to make a plant battery, add the electrical activity gene for an even better battery.
- Glowberries and glowshrooms, as the name suggests, glow.
- You can carve a pumpkin with a hatchet. Carved pumpkins can be worn and you can toggle them to emit a weak light.
- You can make a cob-pipe out of a corn cob.
- You can carve a carrot with a hatchet to make a shiv. It's not very strong but it's good at slicing things.
- Flowers and ambrosia can be worn on your head.
- Add dried ambrosia, wheat, tea aspera tips or tobacco leaves to a tower cap log to make a torch.
- Dried ambrosia, tobacco or any mutations of those are able to be smoked from wrapping paper, found in smoking vending machines.
- Novaflowers ignite people you hit them with and deal burn damage depending on potency.
- Ambrosia Gaia will make trays self sustaining, removing the need for water or nutriment.
- Comfrey and Aloe can be crushed to make healing poultices for brute and burn damage respectively
- Combustible lemons are basically grown IEDs, be responsible with them.
