LOL. Having just joined the billionaire club of bored players, I woke up this morning deciding that I would lay off GN until a new bot appeared, and then spent time moving things around and writing out a message to that effect in my landing pad. Then I fought in the arena 'one more time' and SURPRISE! I won a thermal bot gizmo. That's how I discovered the news. (-: So I quickly went back and erased the message and added the new zone. I bet it smokes wherever it is placed, as I do not have rocks near mine and it is smoking now. Cool! I'm trying geo+mining because it is yellow and it has that drill base. No luck yet... Attachments:

Thanks for all the stuff you did this morning....I know that is why we have a new bot.

Apparently, if you place your new Thermal Zone to close to your rocks they start smoking! Could just be me! Cool! Added one to my outpost and thought, pfft, that isn't much. Glad to know there is a secret to it. This is strange. As I was going through my friends list to speed up Breeding Labs so they could try for Thermal, I noticed that Mindopod had also purchased the Thermal Zone. Her outpost is smoking just below and to the left of her unfinished Thermal Zone. I happen to have rocks there so I thought the rocks were smoking. BFS glitch? I'll try moving my zone and see if the smoke moves with it.

Just as I suspected, the smoke moves with the Thermal Zone.

I put the station next to a tree and it looked like there was steam coming out of the tree.

Ok so it looks like it has a Mining drill and is the color of Geo. So, I am going to try that combo.

Exciting. New Bot! If this is a glitch I hope they don't fix it. I have already become attached to my smokin' UFO! Come see... !!vp!! This is only there whilst the Zone is building. Once it's complete it is gone.

Once it's complete it is gone. OH NOES!!! If I never click to finish the Zone will it stay? And now I have the build a Builder Zone that I will not be able to clear unless I sell off another bunch of bots and another Zone.

It looks like this when it's all growled up. Same earning potential as Steam. And I bought it in my test account. Still don't know how to breed the sucker. Attachments:

I really hope the combo gives a chance for astro as well - it should do, but would suck if it was Mine + Geo, or some other combo requiring a base bot only.
Breeding for astro by itself is getting very monotonous. I've only ever bred 1 astro by trying to breed an astro, yet I got 5 astros trying to get a Steam.
But Steam and Thermal don't earn as much, so don't want to get too many of them.
So with a bit of luck, I'll get another 5 astros before I get my first Thermal!

With grinder and geo you have a chance to get Astro and the wiki kids say you probably need 3 elements to get the Steam, so Thermal should be the same. So I am now doing the Grinder and Geo!

Not a lot of attempts but so far no koala with
Mining+Magnet Geo+Microscope
Mining element seems like a given, and it certainly looks like Geo which has Science in it, so I'm focusing on combos with those elements ... and just hoping no Nature for Mole Caterpillar fails.
