Masterpintsman Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 We can make our own geysers using fertiliser makers... kind-of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CantBreathe Posted May 19, 2017 Author Share Posted May 19, 2017 29 minutes ago, Risu said: Let's see here... The geyser attempts to produce 60kg of methane over the course of one eruption. The eruption lasts 500 seconds and idles for 100 seconds, so 0.1kg/s. The generator consumes 0.06kg/s, so 1 and 2/3 generators per geyser. I did some figuring and it seems like if you pump the natural gas from a fert maker it should give the geyser enough juice for 2 gens at 120gs over 600s. Assuming you are correct and Vilda is not.

Five Fertilizer Makers produce the same amount. Or three per generator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One NatGas Generator produces enough polluted water by itself (0.0675kg) to support 0.45 Fertilizer Makers (used to be 0.9). Add that to the 0.275kg polluted water produced by the scrubber to destroy the CO2, it supports just over 2 Fertilizer Makers. Edit: Since I mentioned that 0.9 I guess I better show how broken it once was. 0.135kg polluted water produced directly. 0.165kg of CO2 produced which makes 0.55kg polluted water. 0.55 + 0.135 = 0.685. 0.685 / 0.15 = 4.567 Fertilizer Makers supported by 1 NatGas Generator. See a problem there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be inclined Risu is, because my geyser now started to produce 120 ish g/s. So I think it's something like strong eruption - weaker - none - repeat.

So 360 power for Fertilizer + 120 for Air Scrubber and +360 more for a Pump/Filter. Getting 3 loads of Fertilizer for 40 power isn't too bad.

ShamPeiN Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 i mostly like the changes, havent played but watched a long stream online what i like is less clicks, more features sideways pushing of resources what i dont like the wire cant go trough walls and bridge is cheaper than wires. irrigation of grain in ice biome too sensitive farm tiles dont drink up the water dripped on them the size of transformer should be 2x2 or 4x4 or even 3x2 or 3x3 just not 2x3 because cant place them in a shaft with art. also allow mirroring it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting 3 loads of Fertilizer for 40 power isn't too bad. It's even better. You need less than one pump, and less than one air scrubber for three makers and one generator. Probably the best solution is to have pressure switch at the pump to only switch on above certain pressure, and another pressure switch at scrubber to only switch on above certain pressure (assuming isolated room for dumping CO2). In effect you get a lot of surplus power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
