Grab your Mech and headsouthwest from the Meadows(assuming that’s where you’ve built your farm) towards theEdge Cliffs. As of this writing, this is the one area in the game where wild Caroots can be found. They’re fairly easy to spot, as the big leaf stalks sticking out of the ground are bright orange.
Once you gather them, the Caroot crop and its seeds will immediately unlock for your farm, allowing you to plant them as a crop. Lola the Merchant will also start carrying the seeds for sale once you’ve built theMerchant Landingto allow her to visit.
How to Make Caroot Oil in Lightyear Frontier
To obtain any type of Oil in the game you have to craft it, and that requires a few steps. First off, you’ll need some Caroot Seeds, which you can get either by gathering Caroot plants out in the wild, or if you have the funds you can buy some from Lola the Merchant for$30/each.
Once again, note that you need to find and acquire Caroots in the wild first in order for Lola to make them available for purchase.
Once you have some Caroot Seeds, plant them in any open crop plot(s) you have on your farm with your mech’sSeed Shootertool. Be sure to water them afterward (unless it’s raining that day), and the crops will takeabout three daysto grow and be ready to harvest. With Caroots, you’ll know they’re ready when they turn orange in color.
Next, you’ll need to build anOil Presser. This device allows you to convert just about any harvested crop you grow intobottles of Oilthat can be used for a variety of important purposes (e.g. – items crafted via the Assembler, Mech upgrades, etc).
Luckily, the Oil Presser machine unlocks fairly early in the game, simply by exploring in and around the Meadows. The recipe to build one is also not difficult at all, as it only requires the following resources:
You can gather them easily enough with yourSpike Sawtool fromany trees and rocksin the area.
you’re able to even build more than one Oil Presser if you want to maximize your output early on. Furthermore, we’d recommend constructing aWorkshop Shed, which improves the efficiency of any machine built and placed inside it. You also have the possibility to get extra bottles of Oil while the machine is running.
Once you’re ready to make yourself some Caroot Oil, simply interact with the Oil Presser and choose the ‘Caroot Oil’ option. Make sure you have the crops in your Inventory when doing so. You can placeup to five bottles at a timein the queue.
If youreallywant to speed up the process, you may choose to go sleep in your Homestead to push the game to the next day. When you go over to the machine, you’ll see all the bottles of Oil you queued ready for pickup.
