Mulling over a little Oxygen Not Included for tonight and tomorrow. Not sure, but I'mo start it and see how I feel. Seed: V-SNDST-C-66913931-0 Classic, Survival.

Some concepts for this one: I'm gonna repeat the deluxe-hab-unit thing, but will start with a very small crummy hab-unit, and only upgrade when I'm really ready. I'm gonna go oxygenate-everything instead of atmos-everywhere. I decided to try *not* using a dedicated researcher.

Finally, most importantly, I'm gonna try to stall on identifying a final "central spine" location until I'm ready to really commit to its final location, i.e. by getting near space above and oil below. I'm gonna make the tentative spine *very* wide.

After 1. Interesting: I can see no fewer than *four* nascent nature reserves. Gonna have some choices, but not gonna take'em until I have high confidence. One minor difference, btw, in play-style: I'm giving each dupe its own schedule, offset by 1.

I am trying to keep these early decisions as light as possible, but *instantly*, my mind starts churning on "ultimate layout".

Will no rid me of this meddlesome mind?!?

Still feeling kind of ginger about playing tonight. Maybe I just go geek out a little instead. We'll see.
