Heated Fabrication

by MrLumme

Adds a version of the assembling machine, chemical plant, and furnace that runs on heat! Also adds two other ways of generating low-level heat! Part 1 of the my bigger GasHeatStuff collection.

Heated Fabrication

This mod extends the Factorio heat system with more applications than power!
Why not use it for crafting? For chemistry? Or for NUCLEAR POWER SMELTING?!

Content

  • Heated Assembling Machine - Crafts concrete, engines, rocket fuel...
  • Heated Chemical Plant - Cracking of oils, plastic, lubricant...
  • Heated Furnace - High-tier furnace power by nuclear reactors
  • Steam Heater - Low-tier heat generator using steam
  • Electric Heater - Mid-low-tier heat generator using electricity

Additional Info

If you just want machines using heat instead of electricity, there is a config option for turning on or off the splitting of recipes in heated and not heated categories.
It should work with Space Age, though it is still untested.

This is part 1 of my Gas Heat Stuff mod collection, which aims to overhaul the heating system and conversion methods between many energy sources.

There are settings for changing the configuration of fluid pipes for the Heated Assembler and the Heated Chemical Plant. This allows them to be single output (normal mode), passthrough pipes, or (only heated chemical plant) able to have 2 or 3 output fluid types.
If you are a modder and want to use the heated chemical plant with multiple fluid types as output, just override this setting and hide it in your own mod. See tutorial here.

If you have ideas for things I'm missed or other things that should be configurable, let me know :)
