Oslo's Guide To internet by Karmabitya

**NOTE:** This guide was created prior to 0.6.0 update which modified Linux Distribution, Web Browser and created new Internet input (Satelink Inc)

**NOTE:** This Guide includes usage of **University**, **Linux** **Operating systems** and **Integrated Circuit Fab** which all need **DLC** .

### **Starting Stage**

Most important step – roll for a cluster of silicon/aluminium that has 3 connecting deposits – you don’t have to get both connecting, just a deposit of 3 for one of them is good enough.

Once you have found a good map the below instructions are my recommendations.

1. Open your trade centre and autosell the 3 highest price items.
2. Place 4 wind turbines in the corner of your map in a 2x2 (dont worry about power in starting phase)
3. Find your biggest cluster of oil, place 4 oil wells. (free oil transport on this map, anywhere is fine)
4. Place a level 1 extractors for wood, silicon, aluminium, coal, iron. (closest to your trading centre)
5. Find your largest gas deposit and place 2-3 gas extractors (open your logistics centre and change fuel to type Gas)

The above start unlocks all research you will need for the next step, it also allows you to start a stockpile of each resource which will help when you start to expand as it will prevent your factories shutting down.

### **Starting production stage**

NOTE: - you should aim to level up your autosell to 2x the starting amount as soon as possible, if you start at 10 p/s then level it to 20, if you start at 60 p/s then level it to 120 and keep your production of your autosells at equal level. You should also upgrade concurrency to 4/5/6 when funds become available.

Now that the starting resource production has begun we will begin unlocking research in a specific order. This is to maximise price with crafting difficulty.

Tip – when finding 3x3 locations for your factory clusters

1. Research and unlock **Oil refinery** and follow step 3 to find the best spot for them. Place 5 in a cross +
2. Research and unlock **petrol power plant** and repeat stage 1 to place a + of power plants
3. Open your builder menu and click the checkbox next to battery. Find a location that has more good tile % than bad an example of a “perfect” 3x3 is below. Repeat this for each factory type

1. Research **Battery Factory** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
2. Research **papermill** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
3. Complete any trade centre orders you have, you should have 1 by now. This will boost your science and cash.
4. Research **semiconductor** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
5. Level all your mines/oil wells to level 5, place more mines and oil wells as needed to keep your deficit at 0. Complete any trader centre requests.
6. Once you have gathered enough research points unlock polytechnic, find the closest 25% tile to your semiconductor factories and place it down.
7. Level up your polytechnic to level 5 and increase semiconductor factory levels appropriately to keep the deficit at 0.
8. Level up your research centre to match the output of your polytechnic, if poly produces 600 science, your research lab needs to take in 600 science.
9. Research **Glass,** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
10. Research **Clothes,** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
11. Research **Shoes** ,turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
12. Research **Fashion,** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
13. **Fix any deficits you have created by placing these factories.**
14. Research **Integrated circuits** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
15. Research **Screens** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
16. Research **Computers** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
17. You SHOULD be making enough cash per second now to start hitting level 10s on your mines quickly. So if you are then focus on getting all your mines to level 10 including wells, increase power supply as needed and make sure you have no deficits.
18. Research **University** find a 25% tile and place your uni onto it. You will only ever need 1 university. (At this point you can delete the 4 wind turbines to reclaim your permits)

The next stage is to level up your university and research centre together to keep the output of your university equal or higher to your research centre capacity. Ideally you should hit level 10 university and level 10 research centre. This will mean you have to increase your PC and Fashion production substantially. Complete this and fix any deficits you have.

The above stages should be complete in roughly 2 hours or less if you have done everything smoothly/not afked etc.

### **Money farming stage**

Now the fun can begin, this is the stage where your income will start to rise very quickly(assuming your have no deficits! :D )

1. Research **Bitcoin,** find a 25% tile and place your factory onto it. You will only ever need 1 factory for bitcoin. Turn on autosell for this item, it will normally always be higher than the previous products.
2. Research **Toys,** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
3. Research **Dogecoin ,**find a 25% tile and place your factory onto it. You will only ever need 1 factory for dodgecoin. Turn on autosell for this item, it will normally always be higher than the previous products.
4. Fix deficits
5. Research starts to slow down, to level your university to level 19 and raise the research centre as much as you can.
6. Research **Books,** turn on autosell and place a factory in the middle of your 3x3 square with best tile modifiers. (only turn on autosell if its price is higher than your current autosells)
7. **Culture** now comes into play. The policies I like to use are:- Political Lobbyist, Chroiron, Heavy Iron, Silicon Valley, Industrial Revolution, Aluminum Smelting, Deforestation, Supercharge Oil Well, Natures Power, Adjacent Bonus Plus, Tile Modifier Plus. (I will let you decide in what order to activate these, cant give away all my secrets! 😊 )
8. Research **Software,** find a 2x2 tile area with good tile % 's and place down 4x level 1 software factories. Fix deficits.
9. Research **Games,** find a 2x2 tile area with good tile %’s and place down 4x level 1 software factories. Fix deficits.
10. Research **Linux** **Operating systems,** find a 2x2 tile area with good tile %’s and place down 4x level 1 software factories. Fix deficits.
11. Finally Research **Internet,** find a 25% tile and place your factory on top. Turn on autosell if you want to increase production further.

This stage can take anywhere from 3hours to 12+ hours depending how lucky you are with the operating system/internet research costs. It is recommended you turn on the worlds fair policy while saving for operating systems/internet researches as this will substantially boost your research points.

FIX ALL DEFICITS 😊

**Exit/Cash out Strategy**

Now that you have your internet up and running, stockpile and save as much internet as possible. When the price for internet hits 100m+ you create as much as you possibly can by placing more internet factories and levelling them up, just before the end of the 2hour market period, or when you hit 0 stockpiles you reset.
