Natural Resources
In terms of directly exploitable natural resources, Aquilo has:
With crude oil being the only non-exclusive resource to Aquilo, excluding ice obtained from Lithium Ice Formation.
Stone, iron and copper need to be imported from other planets as Aquilo lacks ways to obtain these from the environment.
Mechanics
Freezing
Aquilo is brutally cold. Most entities will freeze and stop working unless heated by a heat pipe in an adjacent tile. Heat can be generated by the nuclear reactor or heating tower. Buildings also cannot be placed on the surface of the iceberg itself; concrete (or its variants) must be placed underneath as an insulator. The harshly low temperature will also make construction robots and logistic robots much weaker, making them consume 5 times more power than normal.
Aquilo is also far from the sun, and so solar panels only output at 1% of their rate on Nauvis, or 0.6 kW during the day.
