Freezer
Keep Your Provisions Pristine with the Freezer Mod
In the challenging environment of asteroid colonization, managing resources is paramount. Food preservation, in particular, can be a constant battle against spoilage. Fortunately, the Freezer mod for Oxygen Not Included offers a powerful solution to keep your duplicants well-fed and your kitchens running efficiently.
Introducing the Freezer
This mod introduces a brand-new building: the Freezer. Designed to maintain a deep freeze temperature of -19°C, it significantly slows down the spoilage process for all your harvested and crafted foodstuffs. While it’s a game-changer for preserving perishables, remember that for absolute spoilage prevention, a sterile atmosphere is still recommended.
Key Features and Mechanics
The Freezer operates using familiar mechanics, integrating seamlessly into your existing base infrastructure. Its properties are optimized for efficiency and capacity:
- Size: A compact 2×2 footprint, making it easy to integrate into even the most space-conscious kitchens.
- Capacity: Boasts a substantial 200kg storage capacity, perfect for stockpiling provisions.
- Power Consumption: In active cooling mode, it consumes 480w. When not actively cooling, it enters a power-saving mode, drawing only 40w.
- Building Menu: Conveniently located within the “Food” building menu.
- Research Requirement: Requires research in the “Finer Dining” technology node.
Enhanced Food Management
The Freezer mod is compatible with both the base game and the Spaced Out! DLC, ensuring that all asteroid colonies can benefit from its advanced preservation capabilities. By investing in this technology, you can extend the shelf life of your food dramatically, reducing waste and ensuring a consistent supply of nutritious meals for your duplicants. This allows for more ambitious meal planning and less worry about food spoiling before it can be consumed.
