thebebinator Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 In making my crazy contraptions several times now, I've been presented with things where I'd like to control how a pipe splits liquid or gas. I think this and many other engineering challenges could be solved with a simple type of valve that accepts a power input. Perhaps an option on the valve itself should allow you to make it "ON" when power is absent, or "ON" when power is provided. This would enable you to make complex setups where you could use atmospheric and thermal switches to re-route the contents of pipes depending on the state of your base. so you could have a main oxygen circulation system running through your main base and then route it away to other areas when needed. Overall this game is incredible, and despite being in early access I find it one of the best games I've ever played! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you mean a valve that uses power while it lets the liquid or gas pass, it's called Filter. Eiter select something that will never come to it to be filtered, or just join its outputs into single pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebebinator Posted May 21, 2017 Author Share Posted May 21, 2017 but that has a very very hefty power load, and takes 3 tiles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
