BlueLance Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Hmmm ok I have a design in my head which I know can cool at least 3kg/s but that was using water as the coolant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll go to 2kg/s and wait another 20 cycles, I'll post before and after thermal pics Add 3 gas pumps too, so your test is mass neutral. Regardless, the design adds 1megajoule/second from turning 2kg oil to gas, + whatever is taken from The magma. My maths says you cant run it without pumping out 176degrees hot gas or using some (outside) cooling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already started the test and am 10 cycles in already I plan to build another where I widen the drip chamber so the gas has more than 1 tile space to move. I'll add 3 gas pumps to that one I could only run 15 cycles as I need to get to work here it is at cycle 25 cycle 35 cycle 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnis Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 22 minutes ago, Neotuck said: Cycle 40 Mass deletion, by dripping oil deleting gas packets. If you want to test that, pump on a fixed amount and see what remains. The physics should be adding massive heat by cycle 40 otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why people don't use the "Borg cube" any more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnis Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 its not mass deletion, its the heat glitch. The gold pipes work randomly now, that's why heat is not building up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
