SS14 - Simple TEG Without a Burn Chamber

[@Liltenhead]

For further clarification if it wasn't clear, this won't run a large station on its own without modifications. This is meant to be run with solars, and some other forms of power generation. TEGs that power the entire station on their own for longer periods of time require more complicated setups, or more preparation. This should help get your feet wet with ideas for the TEG however.

[@xexzersy]

it probably can if you put plasma in the cold loop, i find that it makes the teg more efficient due to its heat capacity. This is how I used to do teg way back. Another thing I used to do is a 1x2 chamber with an injector and passive vent that fed into the hot side then one pump into space set low. the pressure difference between the two sides of the hot side will pull the gass through the hot side. makes it easy to throttle.

[@user-fh2fm7vr4m]

this is arcane knowledge that hopefully will not end in a PR

[@Liltenhead]

i dont see why this would get changed, its not remotely close to the good setups.

[@Jedai_Games]

Idk. Canisters holding power of the sun in the palm of my hand is probably funny, but not very reasonable.

[@KeyboardWario]

Yeah this is a very minimal setup. Definitely not overpowered There's a hundred things you could do to make it better

[@romulo2714]

​@@Jedai_Games If they change this they 100% didn't play the original game.

[@donk8961]

Love the TEG. Hell-burn stories from SS13 are part of why I started playing in the first place. Can’t wait to see how this power source gets expanded in the future.

[@joshuawaldron5929]

I hope there's the ability to do hellburns in 14, hot enough to spike the whole station to a million degrees if it leaked into distro Dunno what I'm talking about because I've barely done engineering, but I want to get into atmos

[@rubenblades7896]

I’ve been wanting a modern TEG video and one small enough for my unga brain. Thank you!

[@KeldNeedsCoffee]

Oh good. Burn chamber not needed. Meanwhile the not so quiet voice in the back of my head screams "But burn chamber wanted!" Good video. It'll be good to see more TEG setups pre-45 minutes into the round.

[@Liltenhead]

Still a big place for burn chamber tegs, for those who want to actually power the whole station off gas

JOHN SYNDICATE WAKE UP NEW LILTENHEAD VID DROPPED

[@s-k.RuZz7]

Thanx bro. That was mindblowing. Now I know that: Burn chamber is for weak! Oxygen from distro is for weak! But still your scheme may be modifyed by taking oxy from distro, however it will require more empty canisters. People speak the truth: atmosy is an art

[@Vinzaf]

If you keep the injection pump to the hot loop at 2k pressure, you can keep the hot side a closed loop. (But it's still nice to have a way to vent the gasses in the event you need to clear them.) So long as you have a volume pump maxed out before the entry to the gate, the pressure you need will be maxed. As to the cold side you can inject about 2k worth of gas safely to maximize the temp-pressure differential.

[@ds2sofs]

Videos and stories about Hellburns got me to absolutely love Engineering in SS13, hope SS14 will expand upon it.

[@poormansdreams2183]

Ah… deathgas… my beloved ❤

[@Fantasticanations]

Just make sure nobody grabs one of these canisters without checking the composition when Salvage asks for a fresh oxygen canister because someone opened the one they had

[@wraithdino1217]

asking as a science main who likes to make plasma fire cannisters for artifacts is 3% plasma the best to get the most pressure in the can? I usually use 5% but I dont know if theres a perfect ratio or not

[@hijeatsdirt]

i will definitely do this!! (i dont play engi, my dumbass only knows how to haul boxes for cargo)

[@HelloworldXY32]

Never played or seen this game before, I play roguelikes for a living. The sheer volume of "its all very simple" followed by it infact getting less simple by the second, feels like a personally tailored insult to my peanut brain. Great video though, don't get me wrong

[@Raberuji]

Thanks !!

[@TheHakq]

I kinda don't understand atmos in general, for example, why are we setting side loop with volumetric pump on hot part, instead of just spacing everything in a straight line?

[@WhouseMD]

It provides flow on hot side.

[@crackedemerald4930]

oh so this is where they got that weird teg setup from. I had some engis make this setup a few times already while i was CE.

[@gbsfanatic]

Can someone explain to be what PR means in this games context what what the "content freeze" is?

[@creatorbot0056]

PR is basically a term use to for other people that want to contribute to show the change they wanna add. Like a PR to change how gas work or a thief balance update. Also content freeze just mean there not going to be new update just bug fixes as stuff. So if someone wanna add new mechanic or new item it will get rejected until content freeze is over.

[@gbsfanatic]

@@creatorbot0056 thanks

[@dizzy_eevee]

to be more specific: PR means Pull Request. someone clones the github, makes the changes they want to see, and then requests that the github maintainers "pull" the changes they made back into the original codebase.

[@zankthegreat4291]

Do a very basic frezon tutorial next!

[@nova4131]

Hey liltenhead, can you please do a hop guide? or at least a command role guide in general? I was struggling to get the hang of it after i finally unlocked it on the server. (Got killed by syndies, becoming intern captain, etc)

[@Liltenhead]

it's really hard to make guides on stuff like that. It's basically just stuff you learn over time.

[@Pascij]

Aye, it's mostly RP and make some decisions as commands, you dont really need much mechanical knowledge for that. Most of the player know what to do anyways, for those who have no plan give them directions and training. You hardest challenge is to controll the clown and mime.

[@TheTlank]

The basics for HoP is (assuming you're not gonna be the type of person to make documents), decide whether or not the person in front of you deserves the access they're asking for, and if the head of the department of the access they're asking accepts it. Then to give them the access, you ask for their ID, then you put YOUR ID in the machine that's probably right next to you in your office, followed by their ID, then you can either choose to select a preset (will give all the required accesses, change the job icon, and where they show up on the crew manifest) or just click manually on the accesses. Also please close your window, you don't want tiders jumping in there, killing you with a cobra and getting AA.

[@TheNodrokov]

Also, another really important role of the HoP imo is to relay interdepartmental radio messages. Someone talking about a slime attack on the supply radio? Hop on the sec radio and let them know! The captain can do this too, but they usually have more important things to deal with than monitoring all the radio chatter of different departments.

[@gachaboris5892]

I saw you didn't make a video on the 2nd CM14 playtest, did you also miss that one? It's a shame if you did cause i was hoping to see your POV

[@Liltenhead]

I wasn't home to be able to play it.

[@guysome1]

Orr, radiators in space, and a heater for hot, any gas

[@Jacken112]

just wait for emo to see this and throw down a PR

[@kyokonull]

i hate that guy

[@dasirrlicht5415]

Can one put a TEG on the cold loop of another TEG to get extra power out of the now heated loop?

[@noelka8134]

You want to keep your cold loop as cold as you can, so that will be petty pointless. Also i'm not sure if you can even build the second TEG.

[@zombiechibixd]

There's no way to get another TEG at the moment. In theory should work.

[@garrett666]

strange, this isnt showing up in my subscriptions

[@Liltenhead]

That is strange, KZbin does funny things sometimes

[@Bradley_UA]

ss14 is a thing? Is it good? In terms of rp/fun balance is it better than the ss13 servers? Id love to get back into this game goddamn

[@Liltenhead]

I'm biased, but It's a good game

[@Bradley_UA]

@@Liltenhead ss13 is also a good game, for all its obvious flaws, but there just arent good people to play with, that's why i quit really. I used to run two servers myself (not at the same time) where i managed to create nice balance of fun action packed events and thoughtful roleplaying, even taught admins to look at the pacing of the round and shitspawn things in when it got too stale. But i never saw any other server doing the same and once i didn't have the time to run things myself i just had to quit.

[@kastoridesbobur]

I like how radiators work in ss14 Just put some metal thing in the void (without gases to take the temperature) and boom, cooler is ready to go

[@dasirrlicht5415]

There is heat exchange in space, it just is really inefficient. But sometimes, that just is the best you get.

[@noelka8134]

That would work IRL, albeit not as fast as it is in the game.

Thanks for the video Lilten, you are my favorite Content Creator to watch for my coffee ☕ break every day. Maybe you could make a video or a video serie for new player what to do when they dont find anything to do. Like when you late join and most of the things are already taken care off. Engineer: Make new Solars, rebuild the bar or medical, build a mail system. Greytider: make an maint-bar, strike for fair loan, form a gang. Chaplain: Form a Cult, help out medical with your godly power. Cargo: Create a Cargo band and peform in bar, sell tools and funny stuff for any item they bring you, automate crate selling with conveyor belts. Janitor: smoke soap. 🧼 XD

[@4dmost991]

Greytide can be rather doing pirate swordfights in the bar or making their own shuttle on space (dont ask how they got the stuff)
