Hot metals


A furnace doesn't just output cold usable results. You need to wait for them to cool down.

i Hot plastic?

8 months ago

should plastics also be output as a hot item? at least some plastic items are created by moulding plastic at heat - i don't know if the base plastic resin is made at a higher heat

Hm. I think plastic generally has a lower temperature than metals when molten. I'm not sure that makes sense.

it may not. you could have a shorter spoil time for it to represent less heat?

i have no issue if you think it's not appropriate, was just a thought i had while playing

well, extruding/molding machines extrude plastic so aint that far off, this could be used to make the batteries for example

I added a setting for it. Default is off.

Plz make that bioplastic from Gleba does not get hot, but plastic from coal - does.

Why the one but not the other?

Looks like Biochamber is partialy living being, so i think they have to make plastic different to not get a burn or a scald.
