Building my way out to the Blue Crater today, to prepare for the next big build.

Definitely going to want to connect up the Geothermal Geysers up on this ledge, as well as the 3 Sulfur nodes.

Picked a central spot to place down a permanent Radio Tower, for the area, and built out to there.

Decided to go back and re-route this segment, in order to split off another path heading down into the Southern Forest river.

Since there’s more Geothermal down there. Also several Quartz nodes I’ll almost certainly want in the future.

Before starting on laying out the blueprints for the interconnect, I decided I wanted to collect a few more Mercer Spheres, so I could do a couple tiers of research on the Dimensional Depot. I burn through an entire Depot’s worth of Quartz in about 30 seconds when I’m building with these blueprints.

Back to the interconnect, and it turns out these particular variants of flora are still indestructible. The gigantic versions of this same plant aren’t, though. Go figure.

Got about half of the blueprints laid before my eyes started giving out on me.
