  In the Expanse books, there’s a planet called Auberon that has an 8 hour rotation, so 4 hours of light and 4 hours of dark. They decided that “1 day” would be light-dark-light and “1 night” is dark-light-dark. It’s really interesting how they describe the way society adapts to the cycle of having a midnight sun and both a midmorning and evening sunset.

  I thought i had a good system where each outpost was only exporting 1 solid, 1 liquid, and 1 gas. This allowed me to isolate and sort at the receiving outpost.

  The problem occurs when each outposts import & export containers get full. At which point materials flow from the export station, go to the import location where they can’t be unloaded, THEN THEY COME BACK to the original outpost where they get offloaded. You wind up with all the same materials filling both the import and export containers. Now the entire material flow is completely borked, nothing is getting imported, and all you have access to is the stuff thats locally produced.

  If you look at the ground map when you land on a “coast” biome, you can see where all the elevation dots go flat. That will help direct you to the ocean if you can’t see it over the hills/fog.

  Oof. Clearly I hadn’t tried it.

  Even with that trick, going from 1000 down to 1 is still painful. Probably faster to give them all 1000, then switch and take 999 back.
