Multi-Purpose Goo was a substance produced in OUTPOST through recycling of bulldozed structures and by waste produced by the colony (e.g., residences). It could be used as a substitute for any of the other mined resources. This likely made sense as the developers found that having all of the necessary resources to keep their colony running was next to impossible until you had the chance to develop nano technology. Worse still, because of the way it was implemented, if you had enough structures producing sewage (namely residences), you could effectively have an unlimited supply of MPG. | Multi-Purpose Goo (MPG) was a poor solution to resource management balancing that failed in two main ways: it wasn't realistic (a problem for a 'hard science' game) and it was broken. That said, MPG will not make a reappearance in OutpostHD. While the resource management will provide a challenge to the player, the challenge will not be in the form of insufficient resources being produced by mines. |

Because of this (and it's lack of realism), MP will not make a reappearance in OutpostHD. Instead, materials from bulldozed structures will be sent to the Smelter which reclaims some of the materials that were used to build the structure. As of now it's set at 90% but this will change later on based on difficulty settings and research into recycling technologies. | |
