Mini Cryogenic Generator

Description
Adds a movable ultra-tech cryogenic power generator on any ground.
More importantly it´s Minifable.

Made for Raids/Attacks on Bases mostly.

Original Mod and advanced generators:
Link: Cryogenic Generator [Orignal] ===>If you use this Mod I recommend: Terraform Rimworld
Link: Cryogenic Generator I
Link: Cryogenic Generator II
Link: Cryogenic Generator III

Link: Github (No dependecies)[github.com]

Description:
2x2 tiles long. Skill level 11.

This baby pushes 1500 power and once built requires zero maintenance or fuel.

Dosen´t explode in rain.
Pushes out deadly amounts of cold, building multiple in a single room is not a very smart thing to do. However, if used correctly, it can end up passively cooling your entire base.
The Nature of this High-Tech makes it be Minifiable.
It expolds normally.

FAQ:
Why does it look Orange? Because I forgot that "cryo" is associated with the color blue until I published the mod.

Materials Required:
<Steel>125
<Chemfuel>50
<Plasteel>20
<Neutroamine>25
<Gold>20
<ComponentSpacer>2

Techs Required:
Geothermal Power
Multi-Analyzer
Batteries
Biofuel Refining
Fabrication

Keep in mind also the generator *may* slowly build ice around itself, so you will want to remind your pawns not to shovel snow around it.

Art graciously supplied by Oskar Potocki and is stylized to match his other Ultra tech.
==>Edited graciously by me Damjdu.

I am open to suggestions.
Future updates? maybe.
(Patches are welcome.)
In case I find a Translation: [1. Tanks(obviously)] [2. I take it to the main Mod]

Thanks to:
Chowder for the Original Mod etc.

(also danke Damjdu for the mod) :)

hi here is a thermodynamics question for you :)
(my friend says that putting a damp towel on top of / covering the top of a central heating radiator, in a closed room will heat up the towel and the room at the same rate - but i believe that if i want the room to first heat up more, i can put the towel half hanging off the edge/side of the radiator, so that most of the heat radiates into the room warming it and me up more, and that the towel will still end up drying out eventually, without absorbing too much of the heat, which i want to warm me and the room) :) but who is right?

This actually was a question on my test, and I got it right.

but anyways no one cares because it's just a videogame and it happens to fill a niche in the game design. thanks for the excuse to do some math, it was fun.

I don't know why it took me so long to do this math (yes I do, I have a 40 in this class), but this engine is, actually, thermodynamically impossible. I spent a couple of hours trying to figure out ways it could work, ran tests in-game, did math, took notes, but at the end of the day "cryogenic generator," which i'm pretty sure is definitionally disallowed, because it's basically just a 100% efficient engine, which violates the 2nd law of thermodynamics. I did the math, this thing can pull 1100 J out of a system per hour, but its output is 1500 W, which is significantly more than that *every second*. It would need to consume at least that much per second in fuel in order to break even, and at that point all you've got is a really, really shitty refrigerator, not a generator capable of any useful work.

this machine feels like it's gonna be a question on my thermodynamics exam about impossible heat engines

I want to clarify that I use all three cryogen generators and I love them. They are perfect for ship designs and cooling VFE reactors.

@ The Blinde One
Thanks.

@Blind, dont like it? Dont use it

Ah yes ... undefined chemfuel requirements ... I think you missed that one buddy :)

Also this kinda sounds like a cheat item. Pushes out cold and provides energy? It's basically a cooler but cheating lmao. I do love the art
