Co2 is coming out...colder?

[monster3d2015]

I have co2 going in at 127 degrees and coming out at 68 degrees and the volcano is like 1500 degrees.

 

 

 

Am I hallucinating and/or doing something wrong here or is this a bug?

I am trying to maintain heat for the oil and petro slicksters in my co2 rooms but this isn't gonna work....

it looks like a bug from building in debug where one of your pipe segments is dropping temps to absolute zero

Do the slicksters even need to be at a certain temp to produce(oil or petro) or just to have eggs?

They won't stop laying eggs if the temperature is off. But if they freeze or overheat too much, they die.

The temperature at which the Slickster is currently living also affects the % chance for which type of egg.  Molten needs to be higher temp, Long Hair needs to be lower.

What do you mean Also? Does it effect how much oil or Petro they produce as well? Thanks again guys for the help btw.

It was a continuation of Coolthulhu's explanation.

Slicksters and the molten variant produce oil/petrol at 50% of consumed mass. If you are using a petroleum generator or some other purpose for petrol, it's always better to use a molten slickster, since a refinery loses 50% of the crude oil anyways. You have to get the slicksters super hot though, to get molten slicksters.

Yea I am still trying to figure out if they need to be kept at a certain temp to produce oil or petro (not eggs) optimally.

They don't, you can't optimize for eggs or oil separately. If they're groomed, tame, not overcrowded, not "expecting" (like overcrowded but with eggs instead of critters), they're producing both eggs and oil at full rate. Temperature only affects the kind of eggs they produce and the fact that they aren't dead.
