      Okay, so last but not least, we are going to go look at the resource well now.

      So let's check out the resource well.

      First of all, we can take a look at the well itself.

      I'll give you guys a nice look.

      This is the well.

      This is nitrogen gas well, you guys.

      And then there are these little satellite nodes they're called.

      And so we want to get the gas out of these nodes.

      So what we need to do to activate the satellite node so that we can extract the nitrogen gas is we need to build the pressurizer on the main node first.

      So we'll equip the pressurizer.

      We'll plop that on there.

      It needs some power before it actually starts pressurizing stuff to come out of these satellite nodes.

      So if I'll just hook that up real quick.

      Alright, so it's gearing up.

      It's doing its thing.

      And you can see now the satellite nodes on the outside, they're all gassing up.

      Just so you guys know, this is still work in progress.

      Like, some of these VFX aren't done.

      They might change.

      More might be added.

      There's still a lot of visual polish still to come.

      So this is just work in progress, but you'll see how this works.

      So it's slamming away, and these nodes are ready to be extracted from.

      So let's equip a resource well extractor.

      I'll point this one towards that pipe there.

      We can point this towards those pipes.

      Now I'm just placing them all down.

      Cool.

      And now we'll just hook them up.

      Cool, they're hooked up.

      Okay, so let's take a look at some of the UI here, guys.

      This is the resource well pressurizer.

      So you can see that, yeah, there's some statistics for it.

      Whether or not these are the final numbers, you guys, that may change in the future.

      Just take it with a grain of salt.

      I'm just showing it off for now.

      Okay, and you can see that all the extractors are connected as well.

      So if I were to delete...

      one of these extractors.

      You can see that it's like four out of five are connected, right?

      And then I can just rebuild the extractor, connect the pipe, and then it says five out of five again.

      So this is sort of what it looks like, the UI for the pressurizer.

      Now the extractors also have, you know, they're obviously they've got their own UI and this is kind of what that looks like.

      Yep.

      You can see what it's doing.

      Now something interesting, something worthwhile that I'd like to mention here is you'll notice that I can overclock the pressurizer, but I can't overclock the extractors and that's because it kind of works, they work together.

      So if you overclock the pressurizer, it over clocks all of the extractors.

      Now this is going, it's trying really hard you guys.

      So now it's pumping a lot more nitrogen gas out.

      So overclocking these bad boys are really worthwhile.

      One more and the final sort of UI update is gases in pipes.

      So, you know, the fluids would display fluids here in the UI thing.

      And this is what the gas looks like when there's going to be gas in the pipes.

      That's a little change there as well for the UI.
