"So, we landed on a slightly higher gravity world, part of a dual planet system. As part of that, there are multiple active volcano's spewing ash into the unbreathable atmosphere, leading to near constant sheet lighting in the clouds, meaning radios need to be overpowered to get through the static... I can live with this." Stacy Hamon, newly woken colonist.

[69 + 10 Entertainment Hall = 79] Relaxation Rotation: Because we've just pulled a lot of people out of cryosleep we've got enough personnel that we no longer need everyone to work 12 hour days every day of the week. As the base expands and we create more workspace that pace will return, but that doesn't mean they can't enjoy the extra hours off they'll have for now. Especially the people who landed here in January and have been under that pressure for the past 6 months.(20MP)
The entertainment hall is a big hit. A few of the newly woken people were amateur actors, and they put on a few plays that haven't been done before and get others involved.
Crew are calming down.
Digging and Construction
[60 + 25 = 85 ] D&D Vehicles 1: (2 automated vehicles) Mine fresh ores for processing. Mostly Heavy and Light Structural Materials Ores, but also some of the Precious Ores that are in range. (AI, 2MP(+10 from OCC))
4052 Units of 70% pure HSM ores are brought back by this pair. the travel times are just to long for them to assist with the LSMO and PO's
[60 + 29 = 89] D&D Vehicles 2: (2 automated vehicles) Assist D&D Vehicles 1 (AI, 2MP(+10 from OCC))
1590 Units of 60% pure LSMO
1590 Units of 80% pure PO
These are slightly closer together and can be reached in time.
[60 + 8 + 50 overcharge on entertainment hall= 118 ]Exoskeletons A: (2 Automated suits) Convert sealed corridors to the tunnel network, then deploy in order the General Purpose Laboratory, Automated Production Line 2 and the Thorium Reactor (AI, 2 MP(+10 from OCC))
conversion to tunnel system - 10/10
General Purpose laboratory 50/50
Automated Production line 2 - 50/50
Thorium Reactor - 8/50
[60 + **96**/2 48 = 108 ]Exoskeletons B: (2 manned only vehicles) Assist Exoskeletons B (AI, 2MP(+10 from OCC), 2MP)
Thorium reactor 50/50
One of the crew is hit by inspiration while monitoring the AI and raises a topic for research.
Construction Assist Drones ??/??
These drones are designed to work in concert with the powered exoskeleton units, performing tasks too small for the hands of the exo, allowing it to concentrate on the larger jobs.
once all the buildings are completed, the crew help move ore.
68 assisting the D&D vehicles move the ore.
[60 + 26 = 76 ]Exoskeletons C: (2 Automated suits) Assist D&D Vehicles 1 and 2, mostly with hauling. (AI (+10 from OCC), 2MP)
The crew spend most of their time moving, using improvised sleds to haul the material mined back, these sleds are also attached to the digging machines.
Research:
[19 + 10 = 29]CAD Design: Structural Tau Ceti VI adaptation, this will revise our structural designs and building codes to meet the planet's challenges. (Optronic Computer Core Research Bonus+10) (29/??) (3MP)
work continues on this project, and despite the assistance of the OCC, much work remains.
Structural Tau Ceti VI adaptation 58/200
Exploration:
[50 + 22 = 72 ] Keep the Rover prospecting, with the crews best judgement for priority.
The rover keeps working, but now it's spending more time travelling than analysing.
Production:
[25]Machine Shop: Assist Automated Production Line (3MP)
Closed Loop Lifesupport with hydroponics (Large) 40/100
[60 + 39= 99]Automated Production Line: Closed Loop Lifesupport with hydroponics (Large) (15/100). (AI (+10 from OCC), 2MP), overflow goes to a new Automated Production Line, and overflow from that goes to another Automated Production Line.
Closed Loop Lifesupport with hydroponics (Large) 100/100
Automated Production Line 3 - 39/80
[Idle] Automated Bot Production Line: If possible assist Automated Production Line by creating small components that fit into the ABPL. If not this runs idle. (AI (+10 from OCC), 1 MP)
Resource Processing:
[Idle]Small Ore Processor: Idle, no materials to process.
