Since you are not building germ sensor base on any of it's material, and tungsten will go back to molecular forge, the new thermium will start at low temp and plastic will never melt. Thermium melts into niobium only, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If duplicants bring plastic first, it became sour gas before they start to build. Works only if, by chance, they bring metal first and starts building immediatly after bringing plastic it work only if area is cold other way yes no way it fill work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tranoze Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 9 hours ago, goatt said: Same, only niobium we should test with all other building using thermium, not just plastic based one when they melt, if they are all turned to niobium when they melt then it sound like a bug.

It requires lots of manual work from the player, and can't be automated fully. This should compensate its overpowered feature and make it more unappealing.

But this is standard forge recipe -- melt 100 kg thermium for 100 kg niobium, isn't it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then why melting them in tile or melt them straight as material give 95% tungsten? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
