Ribbed Fire Pole

Revolutionize Duplicant Transit with the Ribbed Fire Pole Mod

Managing the sprawling bases of Oxygen Not Included late into the game can become a logistical challenge. Duplicants spend valuable time traversing vertical shafts, and optimizing this movement is key to maintaining productivity. The Ribbed Fire Pole mod introduces an innovative solution to this common bottleneck, offering a compelling alternative for mid-to-late game transit that significantly speeds up vertical travel.

Elevated Efficiency in Vertical Movement

Tired of the constant placement and traversal of numerous ladders? The Ribbed Fire Pole mod addresses this by providing a dual-purpose climbing structure. It seamlessly blends the swift ascent of a plastic ladder with the rapid descent of a traditional fire pole, creating a highly efficient transportation system for your duplicants. This mod is designed to streamline movement, reducing travel time and increasing the overall efficiency of your colony.

Key Features of the Ribbed Fire Pole

This mod isn’t just about aesthetics; it offers tangible gameplay benefits:

• Enhanced Upward Speed: Duplicants ascend at 1.2 times the speed of a standard ladder, matching the pace of a plastic ladder.
• Rapid Descent: Experience a dramatic increase in downward travel speed, with duplicants moving 4.5 times faster than a standard ladder. This is significantly quicker than a conventional fire pole.
• Resource Investment: To construct this advanced transit option, you’ll need 125 Steel and 25 Plastic.
• Research Requirement: The Ribbed Fire Pole is unlocked through the High-Temperature Forging research technology, placing it alongside other advanced structural components.

Customization for Your Colony

Understanding that every colony has unique needs, the Ribbed Fire Pole mod offers extensive configuration options. A `Config.json.template` file is provided, allowing you to fine-tune the upward and downward travel speeds to perfectly suit your playstyle. Whether you prefer a slight boost or a dramatic overhaul of vertical transit times, you can easily adjust the `ClimbSpeed` and `FallSpeed` multipliers to achieve your desired outcome.

Integrating the Ribbed Fire Pole mod into your Oxygen Not Included experience can drastically improve the efficiency of your duplicants, especially in the complex, multi-layered bases common in the later stages of the game.
