Rhobious Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 Am I missing something? Is there no way yet to deal with Hydrogen. The electrolyzers that create my oxygen also overflow my base with hydrogen. As a short term solution I created a huge bubble above my base for the Hydrogen to gather, but at this rate everyone is soon going to suffocate. Is there a way to turn Hydrogen into something else here in this game?

Rhobious Posted February 16, 2017 Author Share Posted February 16, 2017 Nevermind, I found it. For some reason I neglected taking a look at energy production, so you can burn it.

lemmethink Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I would like a way to bottle gases. There is already an contaminated oxygen bottle. Anyone figured out how to make one, and what to do with it? It can't be sweep I think.

If my colony doesn't go without food before, I'll build a sealed room just to bottle chlorine, pumping it inside... I'm not optimistic I'll do that in time though :/ (7 dupes are starving) Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/74135-help-what-do-i-do-with-hydrogen/#findComment-867699 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spoiler If you can see, in the immediate area surrounding the pump, this generates a small vacuum which make it turn off, the vacuum fills with the surrounding gas, the pump turns on and the cycle repeats. Pumping just a little bit of hydrogen which is not enough to fuel the generator. I even tried with several, which isn't exactly efficient since those consume 240 W/h each, and the generator makes just 800 W/h.

When I built mine it was just like you said, the gas pump would go on and off continiously, and it filled some hydrogen in the generator, but was used pretty quickly. The problem, actually, was that the hydrogen ponds don't provide enough gas to make it work for more than 3 cycles in my case. Anyway, I managed to charge two batteries using this generator.

Actually that hydrogen comes from a pair of electrolysers (which by the way, generate a LOT of hydrogen, half my base is flooded with it) I almost forgot to mention that the electrolysers stop and run in the same fashion.

Weefz Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Yup, I've just suffocated my entire base with hydrogen caused by the same problem. Electrolysers stop working because air pressure is too great yet gas pump placed a level higher won't work because there's not enough gas.

res0nat0r Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I seem to be having the same problem.

Judging by the colour, that pocket of hydrogen is too thin for the pump to work (bug), thus not giving the generator a constant supply, which the generator requires to work. (also a bug) The generator only works properly if it's constantly fed, and that only happen if the hydrogen pressure is above 600g per tile.

Right now it is ~110-140 when I click on a few squares around the pump. Thanks for the info!

Vilda Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Given hydrogen rises, try building it on a top of a dome-like structure so it collects naturally. This end of the hall placement probably does not help Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/74135-help-what-do-i-do-with-hydrogen/#findComment-870552 Share on other sites More sharing options...
