Aquilidae Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 A stirling engine works off a temperature differential. this could help the player use up some heat and generate electricity at the same time.

OutlinedVermin Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 I know they aren't exactly the same but is that not effectively just a self contained steam turbine running off of other gases. Although allowing "steam" turbines to use any gas at sufficient heat/pressure might not be a bad idea.

Killerqueen00 Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I think it's too OP. You can just place it between biomes and get free energy.

Vincie Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 In most places the temperature differences are too low for that to actually work efficiently.
