Off gassing math


Recommended Posts

Sorry to waste a post just to check math, but polluted water off gassing. 

I know it's the 0.1% chance per tick to off gas 0.1% of the total mass but what does that actually mean in terms of numbers? 

Im understanding it to mean that in a constantly restocked 1000kg single tile of polluted water, it would give off (on average assuming a statically perfect distribution) 3kg of polluted oxygen a cycle. 

1000kg * 0.001 chance * 0.001 mass * 5 ticks per second * 600 seconds per cycle. 

Is this correct? If so, man, I have been building way too many deodorizers...

Just a quick question: Did the change from 4-5 ticks just raise the amount of created polluted oxygen ? (or does someone got some testresults ?)

That's part of why I was asking. I would assume that everything uses the same tick count/clock but that's just an assumption.

Same idea here, but i didn´t notice a higher offgassing rate (so not sure if there was some kind of compensation)

I'm not sure we'd see it unless actively testing for it. 25% from tick count and another 25% from the boost from 800 to 1,000kg per tile can be buried by less full surface tiles doing the actual off gassing. 

Guess I'll have to test this.
