Radiating heat into space

[Alricio]

Will Klei ever implement this most intuitive way to get rid of heat?

When i first played ONI I thought this would be the obvious solution to prevent the asteroid from overheating and it baffles me that over 6 weeks after dupes have reached the surface of the asteroid it still is not possible. I hope this will be implemented in the future so it is no longer necessary to rely on makeshift solutions like fixed output temp.

No. Heat radiation is not in ONI, so the way is advection.

Seems like circular reasoning to me.

It would not be necessary to implement radiation for every object. Radiation pipes exposed to space cooling down would be easy and plausible.

Hm, do you know that a (even a black body) in space will cool down much slower? You hav no conductivity and no convection in space!

 

Do you want to wait many cycles for that to happen?

In space there is only radiation.

 

And it will only cool down if it is not exposed to sun light (and sun light exists as the usage of solar panels suggests)

So why do you assume that something on the surface is cooled down?

 

Depending on sun light intensity, cylce of day/night etc. it could be the case it is even heated up.

 

But let us assume you protect your "space cooler" from daylight, what is the effect you are expect from this cooler?

 

If this cooler would cool down a fluid stuck in a pipe into space by 1 °C every 20 cycles (pure speculation, but expect this cooling going very slow) would you benefit from it?

 

P=σ⋅A⋅T4{\displaystyle P=\sigma \cdot A\cdot T^{4

It would make sense to add a radiation effect. It would also fix some issues like the space biome being hot all the time. But it could also cause some problems when it comes to heat management in your base.

I expect the cooling to happen unrealistically quickly, because every single thing in ONI happens unrealistically quickly. Yay!

Yes, you're not the first or only one to ask for radiating hat into space. And I argree Id lke that too. By now. space is now a thing with the cosmic update, heat radiation isn't (yet ? there are someeope who have diged some hidden fles that show some glow efects for objects non implemented in game). At this point either it'll happen in fuure update or not at all.
