I am Suffering™️

I cannot figure out how to get through the first month of this game in one piece. Surely I’m not making new buildings fast enough, but even if I were, there’s no one to work in them. The cloning exhausts habitats far before I have enough workers to keep my power and oxygen levels increasing at the same rate as the population and building requirements. I know I can use a marine stabilizer, but again, no one to work there. I feel like I must be approaching this game wrong? Never had these issues with surviving mars. Any tips appreciated. I really want to be able to play this game to its full extent but as it stands I keep having to restart (and I’m just doing what’s essentially the tutorial run over and over). SOS 😭
