How to make cheap ice?


Recommended Posts

Anyone tried to make somehow ice from geyser water?
Geyser water/steam into coal energy.

Hatch can eat ice from storage and make it to coal so if making ice would need less coal than resulting ice amount...

what if you'll put steam in 12 thermo regulators? or 13, not sure with steam themperature, and there is new nuclear device for water heating... but this system well consume like 3500 W of energy. Is it worth it?

The pipes will break (at least in the Thermal update) if you try to turn the steam into ice inside of the pipes. :(

As Beowulfe wrote, with this update it seems gas pipes can hold only gas.
As soon as steam changes to water pipes are broken and water drops out.

Liquid terpidizer.

That thing is a joke.  It eats 960W and heat to only 85C and stop.  It is hard coded.

Apparently, once it reaches certain density, Ice (and probably other things just don't change temperature at all. 54 tons and still going up.

Did your water continue to condense on to that ice nucleus?

Sorry, but with those mixed tenses can't quite decipher the question. Are you asking if it still freezes and grows that Ice blob? Yes it does, 1 ton in 2 cycles.

Fixed my tenses.  I had to take a phone call.  Interesting.  So the ice will continue to grow from a single nucleus.  Why doesn't it nucleate elsewhere?  Or it does and I just don't see it on your screenshot?

So you can use it in base as passive giant ice-ball cooler furniture.

Maybe it is so large that its temperature goes up only by 0.001 and game remembers just 2 decimal and so it cools and cools everything around without getting any hotter.

Edit:

Actually it is not reacting at all... just sitting there in 300 °C
