Yep, I know I still need to update this. I've just been very distracted with everything else this week, sorry.

Cycle 58

As you explore, you find that this planet has extremely big caverns in these depths, before you are reminded of the assimilated matter near the surface. Some of it needs to be fully claimed, and you send orders to the relevant Outposts to do so before pulling back and thinking of shielding yourself with forgite. Really, the best way to go about it would be Forgitar half-crystals, but to do either quickly you would need to upgrade yourself with the conduitness of the forgite. But since you've already been doing things this cycle, you decide to start on the shield anyway.

Cycle 59
This cycle, you will upgrade your conduitness. Carefully.

...Interesting. After carefully looking over everything, and pulsing a wave out not to collect energy but to ensure all crystals are still connected, the pulse continues out into the large caverns before fading out, and you picked up a highly energetic form of matter underneath the extensive caverns, just barely showing up in the echo. Perhaps that upgrade affected more than you thought, or more likely the pulse is getting further because it takes even less than before to pass through you on the way out. Either way, you aren't sure quite how deep the material is since it barely was picked up, but its very close horizontally after you take a moment to arrange the echo into a 3d map.

More energy production and exploring in highly energetic form direction, focus on production though

Refine those three blocks of the stalactite thing on the scale 2 map
Turn the bottom-most bit of that stalactite thing I just mentioned into a Palantir Allseer Sector.
I'll try to post again later, since there's more stuff we should do but I'm getting pulled away to go do something.

Alright, so while I know theres a lot of things happening in March that'll be interesting (DFOG beta, for one), I can't just leave this sitting here indefinitely hiatus'd. Bump for update tomorrow, so if you guys have anything to suggest (or to finish suggesting in the case of Rolepgeek's previous post, by the sound of it), post it. :)

Though we still have the Alteri to worry about. ;)
The Proxians I doubt we'll have a problem with once the darkflyme is ours, unless we end up besiged in an arcane and confusing fashion.

Edit: Also it looks like i didn't update the title last proper update. Fixed now.

Cycle 60

After a long but indeterminate-seeming period of meditating on the nonsensical components of the Darkflyme research, you reach a conclusion that it is being looked at entirely wrong. The research is archived, and the research crystals assigned redirected to look at it from a dimensional perspective instead of an elemental one; it doesn't matter what the stuff is made of at the moment. What does matter is where its from, and how likely it is you will need to properly refit the reactor control systems for integration and portal-opening. A note is made to track down a Proxian persuadable to revealing their summoning magic or otherwise acquire the necessary knowledge to do said dimensional tearing later.

Meanwhile, the remaining assimilated material is finished off in the core region so that the area is, other beings aside, completely controlled by normal crystals or undegrading assimilations. A new Palantir Allseer Sector is formed to investigate the high-energy readings, only to make rather...unhelpful observations. Yes, you can still see the bottom, yes that is quite the interesting discovery, but you aren't quire sure if this is an actual cavern, or a massive underground canyon. What is the hell are you supposed to do with such an expanse of empty space?
Far off (relatively speaking) to the side however, is what you had been looking for, the energy source. The outside layers are composed of stone, though this stone appears to have been effected by either radiation or some chemical reaction from the inner material, as its both darker and charged with energy that it slowly emanates into the darkness of the cavernyon. The inner material of the structure appears to be especially unstable native crystal. It would need stabilizing to be useful, but even unstable it almost certainly outproduces Refined crystal, so you have found your source of High-Energy production. Certainly is not high-quality though, they're terribly degraded after being left untouched for who knows how long. Certainly will need some investigating and eventual repair work there to replicate them, but for now they should be usable if you just took over the outer stone layer. After most of the cycle spent expanding into the newly explored area, you spend the rest of the cycle's energy continuing to buildup the core repair crystal network.

Outpost Fortress doesn't report anything unusual from the Alterin Outpost, nor does the one near the proxians.

Possible to drop a fully formed forgite-reinforced outpost down into the cavern and have it report back wirelessly?

Try to create a version of the conveyor crystals for non-crystalline object and organisms. Also make more research crystals for magic and movement.
