it's interesting how many of them in UC seem to not have farming rings

I think it's just a matter of distance and them being a pain in the ass to draw. In the few cases they are animated, the farming rings are always partial.

You know that's actually the lunar colony from Dead Space 3?

Is it? The joke about most of Side 3 being a shit hole still stands, though.

Damn shame only one science fiction RPG has two of these as it's setting. Lagrange Point by Konami for the old NES.

Are closed types colonies just open types that were converted to closed types due to demand for more space, or where they purpose built that way?

>>13654812
A little of column A, a little of column B. Seeing that Side 3's La Grange point is behind the moon, I guess Tomino figured 'Who needs windows when you're always in the moon's shadow?' The closed cylinder colonies have massive solar panel arrays and are lit via artificial lighting in both the residential and agricultural zones. Considering this doubled the available 'floor space', the EFF used that as an excuse to quadruple the amount of people they shipped to S3 during the colonization era. Once there, it was the local government's problem to deal with.
The only 'nice' closed cylinder colony is Zum City. Everything else is a god damned slum from what the series states about Zeon.

Fuck, he should have written идyт paбoты, then he would be more correct

>>13654059
You should go watch F91, they show the colonies in great detail.
>>13654851
This is wrong, the closed type was a concept by Minovsky in-universe as a solution to expand the habitable capacity of the colony cylinder.
Also all the Earth-Moon lagrange points receive sunlight due to the tilted orbit of both Earth and the Moon.

>>13654059
God, just imagine being in one of those Zaku's when shit starts going down. The euphoria they must have felt seeing that colony go down must be insane

>most of Side 3 being a shit hole

One third of humanity dead. And some fucking windows could have prevented it all.

One thing that always bugged me was in zeta they complain about the smog in the colony, why would anyone vent to the contained atmosphere when they could vent to space so easily?
Felt like a lazy way to show military development or industry in general as negative.

>>13658162
However easy it is to vent into space, it's always easier to vent into atmosphere. For safe venting into space, the unwanted gases need to be captured, stored, and then shunted through an airlock system to the outside of the colony. Or you can just not give a shit and don't bother safely containing gases and just let it into the colony interior.

Really, it's the same thing as asking "why do factories dump waste into nearby rivers and lakes instead of just filtering and storing it in drums for disposal?"

>>13658162
Probably harder to gain back the oxygen you lose when venting to space than it is to let it sit in the air for eventual filtration.

>>13657971
What happens if you stand in the middle of a colony?

>>13658255
Zero gravity, lots of wind.

>>13658162
How long until spaceships hanging around outside the colony complain of soot on their cameras?

>>13658255
Your soul goes beyond the time as it is no longer held down by gravity.

>>13657540 >>13654851

You don't need an excuse to build Closed O'neill, that's a perfectly valid concept as soon as you need to move a colony around the solar system or at place where the sun intensity isn't safe.
