ideas Conveyor transport options

[Madbro]

Hello guys! (•ω•)/

Just a simple suggestion - Please allow our conveyor system to load canned gas or liquid.

[Gwido]

Duplicants can bring it. So it's just common sens that conveyors could also take it.

I mean I can’t load them in since there’s no option about liquid or gas in the list of the loader.

I think its not allowing to prevent exploit of storing huge amount of gasses in small room/storage comparator.

I`d prefer a water dispenser that can load bottled water to buildings that need it and has a pipe input.
And an automopper that can mop the floor and pick up bottles and load it straight to a pipe.

Good idea btw, like auto-sweeper but work with pipe instead of conveyor rail.

This might be accurate, but I can think of at least three methods to store an infinite amount of gas in a contained room, other than by using bottler to fill up the room. Some of them are stupidly easy to set up.

I don't feel allowing auto-sweeping and delivery of gas bottles would be too exploitative, as it would still require some means of pumping a gas into a pipe and sorting it. Unlike bottling liquid, which requires dupes to pump a bottle or mop liquid, gas transport requires machines to be possible.

I know 2. But this doesn't means that they need to add even more, also existing exploits could be fixed in future.

srsly? what prohibits me to solidify the gas and store it in a small vacuum room?

Power to cool it down. It is require lot of power, more profitable just hold it in gas state at pressure in big room. With minimal setup you will spend 300W per second and solidify only 130g/s of oxygen(some other gases like methane even less) and you cant solidify hydrogen at all. Good luck "exploiting" this way. Basically the only exploit in this method is ability to hold tons of pickable objects in one tile, and this will never be fixed.

good luck in brainf**** to those who are playing without the mods.
