Old boilers

Post by darkfrei »

Hi devs!

Is it possible to add the prototype flag that the boiler must be like the old one?

The old boiler doesn't achieve the end temperature in the one step, but the water/steam will be every boiler just some hotter than before.

Thanks, the code

Code: Select all

mode = "heat-water-inside",
works good, but the output_fluid_box must be disabled, but without definition it makes the error.

Code: Select all

output_fluid_box = 
    {
    base_area = 1,
    height = 2,
    base_level = 1,
    pipe_covers = pipecoverspictures(),
    pipe_connections =
    {
        {type = "output", position = {0, -1.5}}
    },
    production_type = "output",
    filter = "steam"
    },
With output_fluid_box (the output get no steam):
