Moah Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 ...is way too easy! Just dig down, use the material to build tempshift plates to reset temperature and vioala.. My actual challenge is to freeze Adiros Lava Biome. But on the way i see its really easy. Spoiler It took me about 30 Cicles to remove the half Lava Biome and when i deconstruct the tempshifts and rebuild them the lava biome will be down to 100c in maybe next 50 Circles?? i am not sure it the temperature reset when you build something is still a feature. It feels like a bug. Spoiler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakomaru Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Definitely a feature so you don't have to micro manage which materials they grab for which projects. Been in the game since forever, or just about. Very diligent usage of it. You earned your biome. Did you isolate your other igneous rock so they didn't grab it for those projects?

Moah Posted October 9, 2019 Author Share Posted October 9, 2019 Yes, i isolated all other igneous rock before. Obsidian is used up with tempshipft plates to reset temperature in a cooled "room", so it is "cooled down" from ~1300c to ~20c in a second. Once the Lava Biome was so scary, it looked so dangerous, so very, very RED! But it seems its more like a walk in spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobucles Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Welp, time to add "structure heat clamping" to the top 3 heat deleters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And spread. So depending on the gameplay Personnaly I aim for perpetual setup only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean that when you build something the original temperature of the materials is reset? To what temperature? I might have been pointlessly trying to store materials of different temperatures separate from each other. If it doesn't matter because of temp reset at construction I might just put them all together in a single dispenser pit and not only reduce lag but also make much better looking bases!

I wouldn't do that for several reasons. 1. Temperature clamped only when construction finished, before that materials exchange heat with surroundings. That is minor problem because exchange is usually slow. 2. Upper bound(45C degrees) is more than most plants require, so you will need to cool your farm if you use hot materials. 3. You are creating a heat bombs that dups can drop anywhere in your base, just like slime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zOldBulldog Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I am still not clear about how this temp reset works. Do only materials over 45C get temp reset to 45C when constructed? Do materials under 45C retain their temperature during construction? So, let's say I dig material from oil biome (100-200C) and use it inside my base to make a farm, will the farm be instantly "too hot" and need to be cooled before use?

Build hot stuff in a vacuum, then deconstruct and bring it to your base if you want to use this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobucles Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 If there's enough potential heat deletion to win against magma, how useful would this trick be to... say... tame a steam geyser? Slashing off the upper 50C is definitely a very powerful amount of heat control. The main cost of course is dupe labor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenologist Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 Alot of the neutronium in the magma biome should infact become obsidian and/or abyssalite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slashing off the upper 50C is definitely a very powerful amount of heat control. The main cost of course is dupe labor. 800kg of rock tempshift acts as 200kg of rock heat capacity, which is less than 1/4th that of water. So one tempshift plate will bring about 45kg of steam to 80C. Do it twice for about 65C. Pretty bad returns at these temperatures. It's great for a clean up job, though.
