I produced over 2000kg of steel needed to make the rocket engine ( not sure if I had 2100 or 2200kg, but somewhere around there ), and the icon lit up indicating I had enough material to build it. I started building it, and after a while, ran out of steel with 800+ kg left to go. I built nothing else with steel during this time, and I'm pretty sure I even refined one or two more batches thinking I would need more for the research modules and command module.

Why sieve the ph2o coming out of the distiller instead of just letting it evaporate into more po2?

Algae Terreriams.

What?! Why?!

Not quite. Natgas gens have a co2 output but dump the ph2o on the ground. Petrol gens have no output and just spew both out. The electrolyzer and deoxydizer just spew out the gas instead of using pipes. I'm sure there's a few more.

You showed the pressure all the way to the right, but under the second vent there must be a fair amount of steam diffusing over? I can believe the others eating it all before any can make it to the fifth intake, but the second and third have to be getting a fair amount.

That's how I run my turbine too, but my question was how do you make sure only the left intake port has the 20kg pressure and the other 4 are near vacuum?

I'm confused. It sounds like you are saying that you keep 4 of the ports in a near vacuum so they effectively can't consume the 2kg/s. How is that different than just blocking them? And it doesn't look like there is anything stopping the steam from moving to the right naturally and being gobbled up by the turbine, so what is keeping the left port sufficiently pressurized?

Yea, the blocked port message has come back now. It eats 2kg/s of steam per port and pipes can only carry 1kg/s.

So I thought I had blocked 4 of my steam turbine's 5 ports by placing a metal tile under them, but I just realized that the tile underneath that has steam, and the animation makes it look like it is taking in that steam, and it isn't giving me the port blocked error message, so... are these actually blocked?

Holy crap, that is maddeningly FUBAR. Why are the devs not fixing this?

Oh wow, I didn't even realize you couldn't use element sensors in liquid.

Provides power to machines that want it, and if ( and only if ) there is any leftover, then it recharges. If it prioritized recharging itself over supplying power to other buildings, it would be completely useless.

What gasses are floating around in the room besides steam? Some have said that if you have 3 gasses mixing it causes this problem. On the other hand, I only have steam and oxygen in my steam turbine room and it seems to keep slowly converting steam into oxygen. I vacuum out my steam vent rooms both to avoid this bug and to make sure there is the most room for steam to come out of the vent.

Umm, no dude. Batteries provide power as long as they are not empty.
