i This mod: My plans.

1 year, 10 months ago

I have a few plans for this mod, such as allowing extra support for some other mods that add heat power early. As well as adding actual tech tree entries to this mod. Please hit me with any suggestions you have here, or using a new discussion if you believe the idea is large enough to warrant it.

I want to make a Mod that adds Air to Water Heatpump (Preheating Water to 65°C to reduce Coal consumption or produce more Power with the Same amount of coal).
Maybe we could work on it together and integreat it in to your mod

Hmm, it may be interesting but how would the water be preheated?

My first Idee was to use a boiler with efficienty 300% that uses electricity but I couldn't make it work.
Elektricity to heat to temperature didn't WORK.
My next best thing would be to make special crafting machine that Heats the water up and cant do anything else.

Well, a problem with trying to heat water is that most all machines have no recipe that takes the input water heat into consideration. So the thing that needs to be done is to create an entirely new set of machines that can use that new liquid type [because otherwise it can't be used the way you'd want it to be used] and then use that to make steam.

Boilers takte the Input temperature of water into consideration when turning water into steam and in crafting recipes the minimum required temperature can be specified.
I already have a working prototype the only thing that I am missing are textures.

Habe gerade gesehen das du Deutsch sprichst und ich mach lieber einen seperaten Mod (Air to Water Heatpump).
Als Bug Report würde ich die Module Slots bezeichnen, weil man damit Energie für umsonst genereieren kann.

I don't really speak German, the module stuff, that's an unfortunate side effect as I don't know how to ensure that the energy upgrades can't go below a certain threshold. Other than that, yeah it is a bug. One I'm not certain how to fix.

I translated your thing using Google Translate so it may not be fully accurate; please be patient with me on that regard.

And sorry for going missing for like 18 months, I had other things pop up that needed my attention.
