IXION Walkthrough Guide

As Administrator of the Tiqqun, DOLOS’ prototype space station, you are tasked with balancing preservation and exploration as you manage infrastructure, resources and crew. Can you keep the flame of humanity a light in the cold dark? Our IXION Walkthrough Guide will tell you how to follow the path in your tasks!

Chapter 1

Step by step

Do NOT allow sectors to be overworked or you will cause an accident thereafter accidents will reoccur-to avoid this turn of power when building then pause game to switch on power to check for overwork-you can switch off buildings to regulate power and workers-at start you need to do this to enable the EVA airlock- if you do trigger an accident you MUST reload last save.

  • Build 2 Workshops and 6 stockpiles
  • Remove Docking bay replace in left corner
  • Build food stockpile facing sector 2
  • Build mess hall and crew quarters
  • Build tech lab
  • research EVA airlock insect farm probe launcher
  • Explore moon both missions
  • Explore Mars mission 2 for research
  • Build EVA airlock and 2 solar panels
  • Build probe launcher
  • Ensure enough polymer is available for probes in next chapter
  • Explore Saturn mission 1 for 10 research
  • Build 4 insect farms -turn off tech lab for workers
  • Build Vohle engine
  • Ensure enough housing for new workers 14 quarters
  • Run in fast mode till food reaches 100
  • Move Tiqqun to moon
  • Switch on automatic probes in probe launcher
  • Your sector should look like this

Chapter 2

Step by step
  • Explore moon mission 3 then 2 then 1
  • Research steel mill
  • unlock sector 2
  • explore Ushanabi
  • Build 2 stockpiles and docking bay and 3 science ships
  • Using probe search for Asteroid Belt and explore mission 1
  • search Debris Field mission 3 then 2 then 1
  • research cryonics centre
  • build 2 solar panels
  • probe for Mars mission 1 then send deeper
  • build 3rd science ship
  • research polymer and electronics factory
  • build 4 cryonics centres when workers allow
  • search for Uranus cut down tree

Step by step

  • build steel mill
  • search for outer hope mission 2 then 1 research black box and optimized quarter/crew quarter
  • search Jupiter
  • research accelerated growth/insect farm advanced logistics/mess hall DLS centre
  • convert crew to optimized buildings in sectors
  • mine all resources in system – you will incur time penalty but it is worth it
  • switch power at factories to manage workers
  • open sector 3 for homes transfer non workers sector 1 to 3 – leave 4 empty tiles on upper wall for mushroom walls and 2 tiles at lower wall for cell housing
  • build 4 steel 2 electronics and 3 polymer buildings in sector 6 this will give you industry tier 2
  • build batteries in sectors to use up the steel- doesn’t use workers
  • DLS all sectors intense propaganda sectors 6 2 intense work hours sectors 2 3 6 restricted food
  • this is how your sectors should look
