Fire Pole

From Oxygen Not Included Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Fire Pole functions similarly to ladders, the only difference being that downward movement is 400% as fast (for a duplicant with 0 Athletics) while upward movement is 75% slower. If a ladder and fire pole are both available to reach an area, a duplicant will prioritize using the pole to descend and prioritize the ladder to ascend.

Unlike climbing, descent speed on fire poles is not affected by the Athletics attribute, making them less attractive for high Athletics duplicants.

Tips

  • Placing Fire Poles beside Ladders (or even better, plastic ladders) can greatly increase movement efficiency throughout your base.
