after this happens, there will now be 1000g of oxygen, a vent, and 1000g of oxygen in a pipe in that tile, and the vent will once again be unable to pump until the oxygen disperses.

However, if you see a vent, a pipe with 1000g of oxygen, and 200g of chlorine, the oxygen will push the chlorine aside and take its place.

and 1,000g of chlorine, this means inside the pipe you have the same 1kg as outside, and the gas cannot be pumped any further the pressure must be great enough to completely displace the gas already in the environment.įor example, if you select the tile and see a vent, a pipe holding 1000g of oxygen. The chlorine I have is being pumped into a second as room right now just to get it out of the way.If the gas in the pipe is lower in mass than the gas already in the output tile, the vent will never output. I had to dig up an entire organic biome so there was lots of polluted oxygen that I pumped into my base eventually. I've been trying to clean up the area for a while now, most of the gas reservoirs I already have right now are basically just any gas that happened to be inside the gas room I wanted out. The room just needs to be <5kg per tile to not block the geyser. You seem to be doing this already for chlorine though?Įdit: it would also be a good idea to put an atmo sensor in the geyser room so you pump does not continue to work at micro values. It's pretty much how you want to play the game, but as long as you can use them solely, gas reservoirs will always be the best because they cost no power and are easy to automate and can be build somewhere in the open. There are also various methods to store large amounts of gas like abusing the 1 element per tile rule (have a small amount if liquid at the vent) or condensing the gas. If you are worried about space, you can put both of those things into the same room and feed the reservoirs first and then vent the rest into the room. They are able to feed gas to a pipe without the need of a 2nd time pumping.

Originally posted by glass zebra:Gas reservoir > gas room. If it's weak, then you can just store it in a room, and use automation to set the overall grid to only kick on NG for spikes in power use, like running metal refineries, and build a single gas tank to feed the range. They can be very enthusiastic, or really weak. (the geyser was too close to the base to build a big room, so I pumped it over.)Īgreed tho that it's totally on the NRG of what the stats are on the geyser you get on the map. I used 3 airlocks in tandem, opening sequentially to compress the gas into the room, before I got to plastic. The last map I did it on, I did a 24x9 sized room that was storing large quantities of NG for when I was ready to use it. Just a note, the geyser itself is stifled at 2k of pressure in a 5x5 tile around it (from the tile that you uncover to trigger it to wake up), so you need to build bigger than that.

If you have high pressure gas vents, you can store up to 20K per tile, plus the reservoirs. I'd say that you want to store it separately from the geyser, though. So large amounts of storage aren't too bad.

I have times where I have too much built up, and have to run the generator non-stop to keep it from overpressurising, but then there are times where I don't have any left at all. Originally posted by Ekimmak:I find that natgas actually fluctuates a lot.
