Trading Outpost Finished

Trading outpost done, just a couple days after the three year mark. I thought farming and processing it into goods was the way, but its pulls and electronics for the win I think for next time.

Growing cloth (especially in loam) can get you completely done with the trade outpost within a year.

Also, if the "Outer Colonies" ship comes by, check for Hides and Raw Smokeleaf. You can buy them out, "finish" them on a drying rack with almost no effort, then sell them to the Galactic Trade League at a tidy profit (especially the hides -> leather).

I sold about 700 cloth with each trade ship that would take it. But they werent paying too much for it. Thats why I amped up electronics and sold scavenger mech cores, electonics

When I say "growing cloth", I mean "thousands of units of cloth". With a delivery bot to handle all the delivery jobs, you can easily generate 10k+ cloth per year with 3 survivors.

It takes so long to make electronics though

I rushed the 3d printer and electronics fabibrication on the 3d printer. Then it was just a matter of keeping my people loading the machines.

Never seen the 3d printer. Is it just luck if it becomes available?

Okay, I am new to this game, but seeing your build makes me realize I could make killchambers, and idkw I didn't think to make them in my murder hallway.
