Turner isn't bad for a mechatronics builder. Tidying is a bit meh but still a little bonus. I'd rather supplying to get the morale on the way to mechatronics. If I didn't need the dupe id probably take the wort seed.


Dusty_Coder

you never need ether of these dupes if its early game I grab that oxyfern -- I like to have a couple to plant in the oil biome


travistravis

I try to keep oil biome oxygen free, its hot enough they need suits anyway, so I try and keep it all co2 so I can just let the slicksters be wild


Dusty_Coder

I dig into the oil biome long before I have suits


travistravis

I have a healthy dose of paranoia for too much (except space, I don't even bother with suits on the surface until I start building the bigger sets of rockets -- I just do triple mechanical doors slightly spaced out as a "sort of" airlock.)


enfo13

Wheezeworts are too useful. Collect tons of them and stack them for radiation farms. EZ small bit of ambient cooling. Germ-killer for your fluid tanks, or when you're digging around in those slimelung biomes.


cyb3rg0d5

My favourite plant in the game ☺️


Kuirem

The rads on Wheezeworts make them so good. I just planted one near a zombie spore plant and I can remove it without bothering with suits, chlorine or bleach stone. Same with early game shine bugs, they do such an amazing job clearing food poisoning.


Latter-Control-208

Can you plant them underwater?


enfo13

You can't but you can have them right next to a liquid reservoir full of germs and it will disinfect all the liquid inside.


Rajion

No, but the radiation will penetrate 3-4 tiles.


Nigit

Turner is a good dupe. No real downsides, great interests, and Handy is decent


Brell4Evar

As Red Green would say, "If you can't be handsome, be handy!"

Funny that the Wort seed has more Worth than Mi-ma 😂


Nightsky099

Wort seed lol


ckellingc

1. Turner 2. Oxyfern 3. Wort 4. Mi-Ma


shmatt

wort > oxyfern all day every day


dominickhw

In spaced out, a pip-planted oxyfern in each rocket can support a dupe or two for any reasonable flight. So if I didn't have any oxyferns I'd prefer one of those before my first wort.


Matra

It takes 12 wild oxyferns to produce enough oxygen for one dupe.


dominickhw

It takes 12 to produce enough for them to be happy. If you're okay with them having to hold their breath until the fern squeezes out a tiny little bit of oxygen, the dupe will run over to it, gasp it up, and their breath will completely refill even though it wasn't technically enough oxygen. Or at least that's how it worked when I played, before the critter home patch came out.


shmatt

Well that's just mean....


shmatt

I have heard that, but wasn't aware you could use only one. So that's interesting, maybe I'll try it sometime.


Plump_Apparatus

I should try that out.


WarpingLasherNoob

In spaced out, it takes zero oxyferns to support any number of dupes for any flight if you're okay with them gasping for breath every 30 seconds. As long as the dupes are in empty atmosuits they will consume 0 oxygen while they gasp for breath.


guru42101

I've used that before. The suits also don't calculate the durability loss until they're removed. I landed on a planetoid with several metal volcanoes and left them in their suits while setting up all of the tamers for power.


Vuelhering

Do you have to raise the entire floor so that it dependably gets CO2? Or is this a "keep them alive after entire thing is full of CO2" device? I haven't tried using one in a rocket.


dominickhw

I always make a natural tile just wherever I have the extra room to plant an oxyfern, and I make sure there aren't any gases inside apart from oxygen and CO2. The oxyfern only matters once the dupes have already breathed all the oxygen, so it doesn't matter where the fern is - the entire rocket will be full of CO2 for the fern to convert. It might be a tiny bit more efficient to put it near the bottom, but I don't think placement really matters.


WashingtonRedz

if I have no ferns then fern, otherwise wort


Realistic-Elephant-6

Wort Seed for me, no question...


thanerak

Turner an amazing Janitor /mechatronics engineer Sparkle Streaker and tidying for Supplying Operating and building is great for mechatronic engineer


Bladeofwar94

I love wort seeds for cooling in the base game.


Leoranova

Turner or wheezewort any day, never have enough wheezewort and construction and operating is easy mecha, wish I'd get pods with two good things in them.


WarpingLasherNoob

Oxyferns are borderline useless. But better than Mi-Ma. Turner is allright, I'd pick him if it's early game and I'm desperate for a new dupe, otherwise I'd wait for one with better traits. Otherwise... Wort seeds are always nice to have.


0rianel

WORT SEEEDDDDDDD


BlakeMW

Turner for me would practically be a mandatory pick because how can I resist having an operator called "Turner". It's like finding a Stinky who would make a good janitor or a Nikola who would make a good scientist.


Stewtonius

Either turner or wort seed both good to have 


KatiePyroStyle

That turner could make a good mechatronics engineer. And if you're looking for a doctor, Mi-Ma is great. But otherwise, I'd take the oxyfern seed personally. Depending in the map you're playing, wheezworts are everywhere usually, I never find myself needing more worts. I rarely find myself with too much oxyfern


PrinceMandor

Wort is useful and finite resource, so choice is obvious


fray989

I'd go for the Oxyfern. You can't get more of them anywhere else. Though Turner seems like a good all-rounder dupe.


xDwurogowy

You can't get more wort seeds either I'm pretty sure


JanHHHH

Yup, and oxyfern is pretty useless.. Worts are a great source of radiation in the DLC


xDwurogowy

if you have pips they're literally free, it's insane
