Question to other commenters, is there much use for the quick-cycle water filter at the moment? Using it on the rover stops me from installing the generator to use fuel on the long drive, and I can't seem to install it (to avoid spoilers) anywhere useful, further away.
Maybe I take the filter back to the start for the endgame or something?
PS: does the tram ever actually break down if you boost it? I guess I could do a loop with the air recycler, running it back and forth to test that...
in the current build, no, there is no point to using the quick cycle filter because the base recycler produces water faster than you consume it (w/ storage artifact). The reason you can’t install it in other locations is because you can’t get to the internals of the recyclers at other locations. The boost only increases the chances of power surges damaging the tram iirc. But unless you’re using it constantly it should never burn out
*also solar panels will allow you to generate power without the generator, meaning you can have the recycler*
