Miravlix Posted January 6, 2019 Share Posted January 6, 2019 I have something heating steam and then have the steam engine cool it the second it feel like it, this result in fairly short burst runs as I use another gas covers the top of the engine to handle steam rotation. Now if I use two heat sensors and a memory toggle, it would give the steam engine a longer window. I assume the build up to running period is a negative the more of them you have? On the other hand my batteries are full, so running the engine for a longer, but with cycles between or whatever the pattern ends up being, seems really useless. I would have to use half the asteroid for a battery setup.

Come on, whatever I call it steam engine or steam turbine isn't the end of the world. It's still the same thing in the English language.

It can confuse people to think you are talking about the rocket engine.
