Description
Updated for 07-Sep-2021 update

From a time before terraforming Mars was even possible, you could grow your own rainforest in a giant dome.
This will produce enough air for most mid to large colonies,

Output when working is 100 air (fully updaded 500).
Requires 10 water to keep the trees alive (fully upgraded 25)
Maintenance is 10 food, this ensures healthy trees. (fully upgraded 15)
Requires 6 power for the lighing and basic functions
There is no "on/off" button, trees don't generally have an on/off switch!

@enzovirus Haha, I haven't played this game for a long time, my bad. Anyway, this game isn't perfect without your mod, man. Thanks for the efforts!

Hi, it's using models from in game (before green planet came out) and made from scratch. Made in a time putting a rainforest on mars was a crazy idea XD

Is this your original design? I got to say the glass bubble design is quite creative and reasonable.

You misunderstand, th wider top of the glass was because of the wider top of the trees, to give the three large trees room to stand so tall.

The grass is quite thick to give the rainforest impression, lots of roots and greenery on the floor, Ione of my very early designs had several smaller trees to give it some depth but it would make the game struggle when zooming in (assumed too much detail to load in small space) so removed them, was a problem across a lot of systems including several high end ones (limitation of game?) so kept it to a lot of grass instead :(

Not the trees x3

I meant the building itself. a wider base would help counter the upside-down gumdrop effect

a small complaint I do have is the grass seems....excessive on the polygons?

When it was initially released it was a Wonder, a one off build but it's evolved a lot since then...and I never updated that part of the description (now removed)

You say "goofy" but how many trees have you seen with larger base than top?
Overall people like the look of it, so it won't get re-worked. The larger top suits the three large trees :)

also, my suggestion for an improvement to the appearance: flare out the base to be wider than the top. would look a little less goofy

so uhm....this can be built multiple times, despite the claims of the mod ("This is a one off due to the huge amount of resources and time required to make this possible.")

...I've uploaded two screenshots on my profile confirming lack off issues with mod, one showing repairs are fine, one showing wasp drones dropping off resourcs also fine.

@XxUnkn0wnxX it was fixed...and to make sure I've spent the last 30 minutes sat with 4 Rainforest Domes and 100 wasp drones watching them upgrade and maintain without issues, they drop off the resources at the boundary and fix it there too, tested in MOD editor, creative and new game...nobody else had reported issues so suggest you disable all other mods and check everything works fine your end.
Drones also pass through without issues, wasp and normal drones, RC controlled, drone hub controlled and rocket controlled all fine.
