Extreme Glass Boiler! - Oxygen Not Included 

Additional notes, see below: In a glass boiler by itself, mass is conserved but heat is increased because of the difference in specific heat. In a complete setup, 75% of mass is removed at the glass forges. Calcs: (comment if I got anything wrong here) Feed -> Regolith 0.2 SHC x 20KG/s x 300C = 1'200 KDTU/s (meh) Regol.Melt -> Igneous 1.0 SHC x 20KG/s x 1200C= 24'000 KDTU/s (HEAT!) Ign. Turbs -> Igneous 1.0 SHC x 20KG/s x 125C = 2'500 KDTU/s (nearly useless) Crusher -> Sand 0.83SHC x 20KG/s x 125C = 2'075 KDTU/s (less heat) Forge -> Glass 0.2 SHC x 5KG/s x 1740C = 1'740 KDTU/s (less heat, more temp) Boiler -> Magma 1.0 SHC x 5KG/s x 2300C = 11'500 KDTU/s (HEAT!) Magma Turbs -> Igneous 5KG/s @ 125C -> feed back into crushers, repeat

Never let such silly questions like "Why, God, why?" get in your way Greezy!

I love all the designs you're making with this new mechanic!

Uuuugh, this is SO COOL, but it is such an extreme exploit of imaginary game physics that I can not feel ethical to play it in survival. Regardless, this is an awesome build, exploit or not. Well done G

ONI engineers when they have too much time hmmmmmm... lets... boil glass

Glass Boiler?! why in gods name do you need to boil glass?

Hi. So i have problems understanding why would make this. Like whats the end goal. I know u meantion "to remove material" from the game but you're not removing anything as far as i see. Regolith to I.R. to sand to rock gas to magma which you store. Where does the removal come in?

Why DO you want to be deleting

So is mass gained from this process

If you're only using the glass forges for the mass loss, some dupe time could be saved by just pumping some of the magma into space. But then again, not everyone is me and never hires more than 16 dupes.
