Playing the demo of this; is there any way to tell the game to isolate my sucker-thing to one type? Like, I'm finding it a bit ponderous to hoover up the slime poop to sell when my vacuum sucks up the poop, slimes, and any food that happens to be there.

A thing that I've heard suggested that works for me is simply to dump a bunch of free-range Phosphor Slimes into the Grotto, and setting up a bunch of Cubefruit (their favorite food) gardens. I'm tempted to do largos in there, but the same person who recommended this strategy said that the Grotto is a bit glitchy for them.

My other 'main slimes' at the moment (I don't have much unlocked) are Pink Tabbys, Phosphor Rocks, Rad Crystal, and Honey Booms.

That's what I did. Combined Tabby/Phosphor slimes with four cube trees and there's like 100+plorts there whenever I check it. I'm kind of suprised I haven't crashed the game cause there are a ton of slimes there, even more than the gif suggests.

a more zoomed out look



Have you had any of the supposed Largo glitching I discussed?

Man, I'd kill for more finesse with the auto-feeder. I've generally got 4-5 largos in a pen, and no matter which setting I have the thing set at, I see a lot of food on the floors of every corral.

Unrelated to the below but rather important: :siren: Monomi pushed an update two hours ago that made me lose ~5 days after regularly falling through the ranch's floor :siren:. Not sure if I'm the only one, and it resolved itself with a quit-and-restart, but be careful.

I found this tweet about Slime Largo names, and it got me wondering: do you have any specific names for certain Largos?

Since the image is a bit small and hard to read, here's the filled-in ones in text:

Pink Boom is a Pepto Abysmal

Pink Tabby is a Hello Kitty

Never mind, answered my own question. Now that I've got everything sussed out, might as well mention that (after a madness-inducing amount of using excel to shift things around in my head to a way I'd like), I finally settled on my slime breakdown, now that I've got every type somewhere on the ranch and I only had to decide on which hybrids look the nicest:

Lab:
- Pink

Docks:
- Water
- Fire

Grotto:
- Honey Bees (Phosphor / Honey), freerange

Overgrowth:
- Bublacat (Tangle/Hunter), freerange

Main Ranch:
- Uraniums (Rad/Rock)
- Schrodinger's Cat (Quantum / Tabby)
- Crystalline Entity (Crystal/Mosaic)
- Unstable Planet (Boom/Dervish)

The Wilds are interesting. You can only get to them by teleporter, which takes you to one of several entrances at random. They won't take you back either - you have to find a home teleporter. That combined with a lack of gadget spaces makes every visit to the Wilds an expedition annoyance.

Fixed. Also, whichever home teleporter is active is random, and they couldn't be bothered to draw a map for the zone. I don't see myself coming back there, since there's nothing worth the effort.
