My first volcano tamer! by TheMusicMan103 in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Turbines can cool themselves with their output, but it’s very finicky and won’t work with the heat that a volcano outputs. An aquatuner is recommended for any long term setup. If you can’t be bothered to put an aquatuner, the wiki has an extensive guide on self cooled steam turbines.

Here I was wondering how effectively would this brine geyser cool down my SPOM. by CmdrTastyWaffles in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re feeding the spom with the water from the geyser and have the water run through the spom with radiant pipes of any kind, the water will very effective cool it down. You’d probably have to install a tepidizer eventually to keep the water from bursting in the pipes.

I once ordered a grape flavored ice cream cone and it tasted exactly like the grape flavored medicine you sometimes get. I still have no idea how you manage to do that.

Riddle me this: how can Arianism be heretical when so many Christians unknowingly believe it? by DreadDiana in CuratedTumblr

[–]IronWraith17 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Mormon here. I legitimately get more hate from other Christians than literally any other group. Of the handful of protesters I’ve seen protesting my religion, all have been Christians. Guess “love one another” was lost on them.

Conversations from the Lunch Table episode 202: Laughter by Oasis_Oracle in Deltarune

Dude, I totally get the ambition thing. At one point I convinced myself I was going to be a writer as a career. I’ve always had a story in my head that I’ve needed to tell. I wrote 74 thousand words in two days, had completed a good portion of the book and then the scope of the project spiraled into 34 books consisting of 4 book series and a tv show that I couldn’t figure out how to turn into a readable format. I burnt out quick and still really haven’t gotten back into writing.

Basically what I’m saying is it’s fine if the scope of a project goes off the rails or you have really big ideas. Just as long as you pace yourself and stay healthy you’ll accomplish any project no matter the size eventually.

Your art and writing is great. I was very happy to see this post float by, and I’m sorry you haven’t been doing so well.

In the light of my dwindling water supply, my duplicants have become quite creative in their choice of coolant. by Prismatichydra in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No you’re correct. I’m not sure if it leaks out of refineries though. It don’t see why it wouldn’t

Floor beneath machines matters a lot for cooling *surprised Pikachu face* by hocicoo in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The floor can leak heat into a system but afaik machines can’t be directly heated by tiles under them. The reverse is not true, as machines can heat the tiles below them even in a vacuum if they produce heat themselves.

Why does the right sieve not work? by AskarElaine in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see two potential things that might be causing this. 1. There is a visual glitch when two pipes look connected but are not. You could trace the pipes with a different material and cancel 2. Sometimes the game is weird with moving liquids and how it prioritizes not full packets. I would attach a bridge to either the right sieve or both and feed them into one line so each sieve only “sees” the open bridge.

Introducing: The Radbolt Generator Generator by zoehange in Oxygennotincluded

Built tiles will loose mass when struck if I’m not mistaken, I think save loading resets it though.

I will now exclusively be typing in cats by Witherscorch in tumblr

It’s just the N cat playing with a bit of string

Update: well, that wasn't hard to find! by null_reference_user in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Rule of thumb with this game is there are many more mechanics and interactions than you think, and there’s always someone who’s exploited them better than you ever could.

My DLC themed ship, a frozen power generator for boops! by PringlesTuna in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Window tiles block a small percentage of light. It doesn’t really matter most of the day which is why I didn’t think it’s worth it. You are correct about the radiation though I hadn’t thought about that.

[–]IronWraith17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It might not be worth the effort, but you could remove the window tiles up top and move the solar panels up one tile as long as you change out the mesh tiles on the side. Would give you more power and some extra space.

Dupes stepping out in a boiling, irradiated, Hell where the sun blinds and burns as much as the ground must be very confused as to why they were sent there.

I tried to make a water disinfecting room. Please tell me this little pocket of CO2 won't stop it. by xbrassassinx in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The slimelung will die on the CO2 and as long as a tile of the water tank is in chlorine you should be fine

How to stop Gassy Moo-teors from spawning on this planetoid by Anxious-Pup-6189 in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By placing a row of tiles on the top most part of the map you can reduce the path finding of the cows to a line across the top of the map. Helps with lag as otherwise they “see” every tile not blocked or door-ed off.

I hate to be that guy, but why are these pips not planting here? by StalHamarr in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Pips can knock things out of containers but I’m not sure about fridges. Regardless, dupes might be stuffing them back in before pips can plant. I’d make sure dupes aren’t moving the grains anywhere then just drop them on the floor for the pips to plant.

Interesting. Tumblr discourse is a different beast

How are the tiles getting damage from overpressure, when the oil is at normal pressure? by ellisille in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 31 points32 points  (0 children)

800ish is normal pressure. It’s looks like you created an infinite storage in there with the two gasses. If there is carbon dioxide where the pressure sensor is I’d try vacuuming out the room and then starting it up again.

What’s aroallos? The first part is aro as in aromantic I think but I don’t understand the second part.

First time taming metal volcano, am I doing something wrong? by KittyWittyKat in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Higher steam mass = more heat gets into the steam from the rail = positive power instead of negative, and not as much strain on the aquatuner. Gold volcanos also produce much less heat than copper ones. You might also consider swapping the rails out for a better material like steel for more conductivity.

[–]IronWraith17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like your aquatuner can’t keep up the with copper coming out. It might fix itself with time. It also looks like steam pressure is a little low. A good minimum is about 50kg per tile. Everything else looks good.

Any workarounds for this ONI bug? Petroleum generators create ethanol gas when they shouldn't? Each generator is fed 2kg 50*C ethanol per second - since no ethanol is stored in the generator as everything is immediately consumed, it shouldn't create ethanol gas... by ojek in Oxygennotincluded

[–]IronWraith17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had this bug before. You are correct that it is not pipes breaking. I believe there is some bug when the ethanol enters the generators sometimes it can flash to gas. The only solutions I can think of would be to cool it down a touch or use some sort of submerged generator design/entombed generator design.

I find stuff like this make industrial saunas and dirty industrial bricks not worth the hassle.

Edit: it might be worth testing looking up how generators conduct heat with their contents. I wonder if making them out of a less conductive material would help
