g Electric Heater Missing?

2 years ago
(updated 2 years ago)

Hello, I like the idea of this mod. Although there seems to be a problem: Researching the "Burner and Electric Heaters MK1" and MK2 I only get the solid burner heater and the liquid burner heater but the electric version is missing. Or am I missing something? Do I need something else? Or could this be caused by some other (maybe conflicting) mod?

Edit: Ah I am sorry. I just read the changelog again. The electric heater is removed when using Krastorio 2. I understand there would be an infinite energy possibility, yes. But can this be avoided somehow else? I had the idea to use the electric heaters to build a more space-efficient accumulator mechanism for when I am not fully utilizing the activated intergalactic transceiver, but that will only work if I can convert excess electricity to steam for storage.

The only way to like avoid it is editing the effectivity of steam turbines, heat exchangers, boilers and steam engines because a limitation with the game is that electric consuming buildings cannot have effectivity unfortunately
I could edit effectivity of advanced turbines and fusion reactor

The electric heater and recipe are still in the game though but cannot be unlocked
(recipe cannot be unlocked because control.lua edits it)

though, I could increase the steam temperature of the advanced turbine and fusion reactor and do some stuff with heat exchangers which could fix it

Also, I could fix it by adding a drain onto the electric heater
