Bug? : Reactor heat-absorbing component

SpwnX · Sep 17th 2012

Overclocked Heat vents absorbs heat from reactor hull right?

If a setup produces 720 Heat, 20 Overclocked Heat vents absorb them all (36 heat each).
If you have the same setup that produces 720 heat but with 40 Overclocked Heat vents, only 20 gets heat and others keep doing nothing.
Shouldn't heat absorption be EQUAL to all reactor heat-absorbing components?

Thanks, SpwnX

no, this is corresponding to the new reactor mechanic where every component does his stuff before the rector moves to the next one.
It starts at the top left going right and then one line down, again from left to right. That is completly intended.

So reactor setups that uses overclocked vents are a bit harder to make...

pretty easy once you figured it out.

btw my record on cooling is at 656, try to beat it. (without melting heat vents of course... )

shared effects for every item of same type is possible but much harder to implement than current implementation it.

i will work on it later (maybe).

It's as Gorni said.
The reactor iterates through it's grid, it does NOT calculate all items at once.
