It's nice to have fresh tutorials for ONI. One of the problems I find is that there's too many outdated videos for this game, so your content is greatly appreciated!

I watched till the end. I would like to redeem my “thumbs up”

I'm definitely going to have to watch this again, but really great.

I can't believe i found the oni tutorial series i've been looking for all this time. You explain basics and then move on to complex examples, you steer away from exploits or you at least mark them, and you show the examples in action AND in a base, just A+ video, well done

Great summary of things to do! Some things that may be handy to know: Most generators have a slider, that 'switches on their fuel demand' based on battery status. If you have a ton of coal generators (or anything that is manually fed!), it can be used to 'cascade' the generators. Like you set the first one to 55%, second to 50%, 45% and so on, evenly spaced out between like 60 - 10%. Now, have a battery that controls all of them, and its set to like 65-90% to switch the generators. If the battery enables the generators AND it does only drop slowly, only one generator will demand fuel and start to charge. Over some charge/discharge cycles, it will only fuel the generators that need to be running to keep the battery fed. (Works especially well if you have auto-sweepers feeding the generators!) This way you do not turn on the whole batch of like 20 generators if only 4-5 are needed. (It does not waste any fuel if you fuel all of them and turn them on for only 1 second only, but it feels better if they do not just flicker on/off to push the batteries up.) The slider can also be used as an automatic backup system. Have a few manual generators set to 5% around your base, and if your power grid fails and batteries get depleted it will call dupes to help out. A similar use case comes up if you have many large consumers on a big wire, you can enable generators based on consumption to smooth the battery level a bit.

This video is extremely helpful. You do a really good job explaining the automation system and I learned so much. Thank you !

With this knowledge, I cant wait to start over engineering and over automating everything possible just for the hell of it. Thanks for the vid

I learnt a whole lot from this video, the main thing though is that we both have VERY different definitions of basic XD

Honestly best video I've found on automation so far. Thank you so much for taking the time to go through all of this! The isolated examples for each and the "human translations" really helped.

I make it to the end of every one of your videos. I waste long times over some stuff but when you say "meh, don't bother" it gives a fresh view, useful insight!

I finally understood what the filter and the buffer gates do. Thank you!

Thanks. Learnt more from this tut than any other ONI video I've previously watched.

Not gonna lie, this video got me excited about automation when i was literally that guy like "woah there's way too many pieces, peaceee"

Using several of your tutorial vids as I'm getting hooked back into the game, they're super helpful and I've survived longer than ever before after having watched them, thanks a lot for the info and tips

I just started playing this game a few weeks ago. Thank you for the builds that you use. I have been just building random things and they front work. Now my dups can stop dying.

ONI is a complicated game, so up-to-date tutorials like this is much appreciated. Well-earned subscribe from me, cheer !

Best Automation Tutorial, thank you for the all explanation, Automation is so confusing the first time because there is no context in game but this puts it into perspective, i can see how this will make the colony more streamlined and efficient.

Thank you for this! It is so thorough and overall informative that it gets me excited to play Oni again after i feel like a failure with broken base!

I made a petroleum boiler in a debug world, and I did another step on saving petroleum, once the reservoir (a petroleum pool) was low enough, it would sense it and turn off the boiler's secondary sistems (like lighting, steam turbine cooling, etc...) i also put a sensor inside the boiler that detects if there is an overflow problem which shuts off the liquid vent to prevent further overflowing... Some not too complex automation. 👍🏻

You don't know much this helped me understand this game's automation mechanics. Bought the game during Steam's Sale and I've been loving it!

I literally stopped playing ONI because I couldn't figure this out. Thanks for the basics. :)

I would have thought the most obvious use of a duplicant motion sensor was to turn on the lights when they are passing through a room.

I know from your playthrough that you don't favour it, but a tutorial on how to safely handle slime both in terms of using it to make algae and dirt would be greatly appreciated.

Wow man, thanks for setting this up. It really answered a ton of questions for me. The power cost of the gas filters was driving me crazy until now.

Just started playing ONI and i am loving this tutorial, thanks for this man!

Dude, these videos are amazing. Played for about 100 hours and am just running up against all the secondary sort of systems and in 2 videos I've totally changed how I play!

After encountering issues with elements still not being sorted correctly I just wanted to add that, for me, it was necessary to use bridges to direct gas flow. I couldn't figure out why I was still getting elements not being sorted correctly. Adding a bride following my outputs fixed it. Thx for this series, very well organized and explained!

Everytime I see your video, I learn something new. Thanks!

Excellent job explaining things clearly. Found myself watching the whole thing.

I watched the entirety of this video. Your tutorials are awesome.

This was the best video for automation I have seen! So glad I came across this. It was super informative and you finally made it "click" haha! Probably going to binge all of your other ones and most definitely subscribed. :)

Didn't know or maybe forgot that vents themselves could be automated to open and close. That's handy for a lot of things, such as keeping dupe eardrums from popping lol. Using just the first half of the video, one can set up a full HVAC system to keep the air inside the habitat germ-free pure oxygen at just the right temperature and pressure which I think should be the next objective after securing food, water, and power. With a good HVAC, you don't need to stress so much about creating perfect airlocks to the hazardous biomes or having to avoid taking flatulent dupes.

I love you man. I might actually try to beat this game now after watching this

Thanks for sharing clean and efficient logic use. Or circuit wiring. This was a few of the things I was having a lot of trouble with.

This video is super helpful since I just got back into ONI. Thank you so much!

U can use timer/cycle sensors with OR gate to lock the dupe in a workstation! Open momentarily before breaks and a short while after breaks. I put all the mateirals for the researching/operating dupe in his station so he doesn't run around doing random stuff.

This was a long video. And i appreciate it. It was worth watching. Thank you, I'm off to apply this.

Thank you for these videos, I just watched the water management and this one about automation and I feel confident I won't keep restarting the world over and over again. Thanks to you I've what I need to keep having fun with the game instead of being frustrated of why I keep failing to survive

I know this video is old now but its really cool to watch! I play oxygen not included very casually, but I want to actually complete a playthrough soon so I've been looking up tips for what to do :)

Well, I don’t expect this game to be reminding about my college stuff. Great video btw, gonna dig the remaining automation stuff.

by far the only video on automation that i can understand! Thanks for making this. Can't wait to try it all out.

Awesome as always. I've watched all your tutorials now and I feel much more prepared to tackle problems I've had in previous playthroughs. I'm still not totally sure how you seal off rooms forever and are just fine with that but I guess you know what you're doing! That base at the end made my eyebrows go up a couple of notches. I'm nowhere near that level, impressive stuff.

Watching this as I'm building.. Probably watched this at least 10 times. You made it easy to follow. Nice!

Fantastic guide. I've been looking for simple solutions all over the place, and this is perfect.

Just finished watching this. Great video I'm new to the game so I'm going to try and use these in my own world.

Nice video! Please show pluming sistems for cooling loops!

This is really useful, thanks. I started playing recently and with 2 worlds got to cycle 100 and reached a brick wall and couldn’t overcome it, and power usage was always the first thing to go wrong. I had no clue what I am doing (and still don’t, but that’s why I’m watching this) so never touched or even researched automation. Only 15 minutes in and finding loads of issues I had, especially with gas, solved relatively simply. I’m gonna give another world a try, so ty for the help :D

Been playing for a couple of weeks just, and your tutorials have been SO useful - thanks for all your efforts, very much appreciated!

Thanks for the video! Automation seemed so complex and unapproachable but you break it down into really easy to understand pieces :)

Magnet : "I don't know what could be the purpose of a memory gate" Also Magnet : * Uses signal counter as memory gate *

This video is a savior , which help my little brain a lot .

Yeah! I made it! I'm three hours into a new map, so.. Definitely needed to watch this all

This video along with all the others in your tutorial series are soo incredibly informative and concise (even though most are close to an hour... wouldnt want it any other way) ... you have been such a huge help. Thank you soo much and keep it up!!!

Love the shutoff for gases! Thank you for sharing!

Oh man this really helped me understand how to work automation and how to use it for my bases moving forward! It's one of the things I struggled with understanding and making it work right. I love playing the game but never been able to get past certain parts. You're videos are very helpful! ^ - ^

I love watching on the second monitor, as I might not play ONI regularly. Does not mean I don't love automation ;)

Merci pour ces tutos! I'm really happy to be able to deal with automation thanks to your clear explanation Can't wait to watch your New vidéos as soon as the 2021 DLC will comes out!!

There's so much satisfaction in this it's crazy

hey man idk if you're still doing youtube, but thanks regardless, these tutorials helped me a lot in my bases and hopefully will keep helping me up until my first win. i'd love to see some more content but i hope you're doing good wherever you are.

THIS VIDEO IS EVERYTHING I WANTED THANK YOU SO MUCH I AM SO HAPPY I've been struggling with automation for a while because experimenting with it was too costly (dupe time, energy, mistakes...) so I never really used it and I couldn't find any good visual, problem-solving, practical tutorial on it and you just made it!!

Watched to the end whew! Very good and actually made me understand it a bit more

35:39 The moment I see Puft Princ's face when it submerged I can't stop laughing. 😂🤣

You explain yourself so clearly. This is so helpful. Thank you!!

This was super helpful it was a little intimidating when i first got into automating my base thank for taking the time to put this together

Practically ready for coding thanks so much this was really helpfu

the memory gate is just a signal counter with a max count of 1 use it if it fits space needs better. also wattage sensors can be used to make a scaling powergrid instead of a storage power grid allowing you to run in time power demand using a single smart battery as a buffer and wattage usage to determine when extra engines turn on based on the grids usage this lets you blow a lot more power if you wanted to at the cost of very low tolerance to resource disruption since you would only have 20kj on reserve but you would be able to push a boat load of power assuming your resources were in order since you would have much more space for generators due to the lack of batteries

Long but usefull, gonna watch this again and come back for other stuff thx

Oh my goodness this was such an excellent video! I will definitely be taking this information and applying it to my base! Thank you!

Great job, thank you Brandon for this video :)

Thanks *so* much for the time you put into these videos. I don't know that I'll ever take the time to actually finish this game (I've made it only to about cycle 150), but it's still nice to see it being done regardless!

Greatly appreciated the explanations!

best oni playlist tutorial

Nice Tutorial it's helpful thanks

Firstly this is an amazing tutorial and great exercise for people that improve in English. Thank you. But secondly, I want to see advanced automation and ribbon system but that's fine for me. Thanks a lot

what an amazing demonstration, it really seemed complicated but you showed everything step by step, thank you :>

Man, thank you for your videos. They are all well prepared and explained well!

35:40 That is the saddest thing I've ever seen! You monster! (But in regards to the information, that was all really super useful and easy to understand, so thanks for making this, man.)

Great video! You helped me go from incredibly confused to slightly confused but I am excited to take this knowledge and test it all out. By the way, a human explanation to something is just an explanation. Lol

Great video. I was just wondering, one of the first things I usually do after unlocking automation is set up a dupe sensor and a light above the research station and super computer to get the 15% speed increase, this has saved me a lot of time researching, but I haven't heard anyone talk about it. Is there any reason why I shouldn't do this?

Your tutorials are great and you are good at teaching stuff. I have subscribed your channel and hope you keep creating educational videos :)

Isn't the Or-Gate an XOR-Gate? If you want "either or both", a regular wire does the trick. It will always be "off" unless at least one sensor in the system is telling it to be "on". Might be an important information for beginners.

Thank you for this video once again :). I understand now properly the drowning process of the critters and the meat pick up by the shipping system. But for the eggs, themselves, my conclusion is that you simply drop them in the room above it and let them incubate on the floor ? then how do you automate the process for the grown critters to go the drowning room ? (but not the eggs yet).

I'm 36, and I'm back to school. 😅 Jesus, this game is deep.

are there any other survival/sim/colony games that use logic systems like this? I recently 100% ONI on steam and realized what made it so addictive was managing your resources and environment. It was like a puzzle in a puzzle that kept my interest for 700+ hours.

thank you, great tutorial

your tutorial videos are the best thanks bro

Wow... I made it to the end =D I can see this game will probably take me a year or so to 'win' with the amount of free time I have lol

I've found the gas shutoff/element sensor to be quite... inaccurate, especially if you get blocking downstream, while the gas filter is flawless in its filtering. Having said that, there is a mod that'll reduce the required power for the filters. But great video!

yes, I watched the whole thing. Yes, I would watch it again :D thanks!

Nice video. I'm going to have to watch it a few times! Lol

Thanks for the tutorial. This game is quite challenging. I switched to the petroleum energy when my coal supply dropped below 2t. (cycle 70+) After that, I faced the oxygen problem and needed to switched to Electrolyzer. I barely finished the transition as the algae was less than 200kg. (cycle 90+) Since I reached maximum air pressure and my base was airlocked, I had to use two carbon skimmers (one inside the base, one outside. The outside air pressure also reached maximum) to get rid of the CO2. (cycle 110+) After that, I started to dig upward to space and maybe 30+ cycle later I found there were huge amount of hydrogen accumulated in the top of my base which prevented the growth of the meatwood. (And hydrogen all the way in the upward tunnel too.) This game really made me headache...

Made it to the end, thanks for the through explanations

Really informative, thanks!

This is an amazing tutorial. I am struggling witht he automation. This really help to ease the pain of it. haha

thanks for the in depth video

The simple sentence for the "NOT" gate would be: "If this sensor detects anything that is NOT Oxygen, activate the pump".

Congrats on your video, bud. Thanks

We miss you, Magnet.

This is gold!

i made it though the whole video and leaned a lot thank you vary much. i would like to lean how to use some of the other logic stuff you didnt use.
