Hi I seem to be at a bit of a standstill with my new zolarg colony. I mainly built it to mine aluminium for my other colonies but still hoped to build it up nicely.

Basically I unlocked all of the available tech - up to and including aluminium mining, access to trading, and their first tourism buildings, but now seem to be stuck. The next research option is "Ancient Alien Language" but there hasn't been anything to help me dig for the artifacts. I have at least one of every building available, and have every resource available but no option for archaeological dig sites or any equivalent so have no artifact to unlock the "Ancient Alien Language" even though i have more than enough research points.

Are alien artifacts something you have to buy/gift on the zolarg forest world? Or do I need independence to get that? You don't on the human world.

All help appreciated. I'm only at 50,000 civics so have a long way to go before independence... Built some money pits and extra command centres but they don't seem to be generating much so are the elder mounds best for the price?

Help appreciated.

Thanks!

For future reference anything that uses regolith can have it harvested to that building. So the little rovers can harvest regolith to a helium 3 building, a regolith compactor, or whatever the thing is that uses regolith to make water. When starting out I try to position these buildings next to the regolith deposits. Once I'm about to build a regolith miner and start mining regolith I stick the mines in long lines between the regolith compactors and just just check them every now and then to see if I need to build more. Also if I accidentally run out of power the miners will stop harvesting, though that's less of a problem since they introduced the raw materials deposit. Stick a couple of those at each end of the line and the miners can harvest to those when the power goes out, and just go back to harvesting to the regolith compactors when it comes back on.

Dunno if that helps but anyhow. That's what I do. Good luck
