OXYGEN NOT INCLUDED Experiments and Tutorials

sweepy what's that you're sweeping up there oh it's some magma welcome back my fellow delegates to oxygen not included today we are taking a look at taming a volcano using little sweepy BOTS so I've kind of made up this little contraption right here just as a concept and we're going to expand on that today so essentially what we have going on over here is a sweep II that is sweeping up liquid magma okay magma is always liquid but anyhow magma and the auto sweeper is pulling it out of the dock and then in putting it into this bottle empty er over here on the left which at that point will then heat up some steam and run the steam turbine now if you remember from the last couple of episodes here where we were sweeping space with swoopy BOTS we noticed that the output temperature of the material that was being delivered to the sweetpea docks here was at a set amount so we were actually deleting a lot of heat when you start to consider that this was over here at 300 degrees Celsius but by the time it gets over here it's like a 20 degrees Celsius really interesting so in this arrangement here we're actually using the regolith to keep the Robo miners cool sort of this design sort of works so the idea here is that we can tame a volcano get the power out of it and then cool the material back down to a reasonable temperature to use inside of our base so that's what I'm looking to explore if this works we should be able to tame magma volcanoes and metal volcanoes all with the exact same set up mm-hmm all right slight technicality with this one the action of pulling liquid out of the Suevi dock and then loading it into the bottle emptier is kind of an unwritten side-effect of having the canister fillers mod enabled I didn't notice that I had this one enabled and I didn't read that that was actually a side effect of it so you do need that in order to make this arrangement work however there's another way to deal with it and that's if we use a mechanized airlock over here we've actually used this in the past and a couple different designs to kind of sequence magma out of this area and we can use some of the new setups here to make this happen as well so what I'm using here is a filter gate and then I'm using something like a timer sensor right here we have one second of green and ten seconds of red or you can kind of play around with this and what this is doing is it's just letting the mechanized airlock open up for just a moment here letting the liquid flow in however you don't get to have the fun of having a little sweetie over there plus the amount of Magnum that's left over here at the end when this thing goes dormant after a while it's going to be a fair bit more than when you're working with something like a sweet pea sweep you just cleans it all up anyhow so just a heads up if you're not using mods this arrangement here unfortunately will not work however this arrangement will work although you might want to tweak it and actually bring the volcano a little bit closer to the door if you want to get all of this liquid out still that works just fine all right so if we take a look at this design here there's a couple of things that I definitely want to include in my final setup here and the key thing here is that we have an auto sweeper that can reach through this little corner gap right there and then get over here to the sweepy dock now if you know that if we can reach to this tile right here we can actually pick up out of this weepy dog the same thing goes for delivering to the bottle emptier if we can get right down to this tile so this arrangement right here where we have the auto sweeper up in this spot works we can reach down there and we can reach over here without the heat being able to get out of here and into this area so that's kind of key the second thing I want to do is make sure that we don't put too much heat into a chamber over here on the left so I'm gonna make sure that this only runs if we're below let's say 195 degrees Celsius that way we don't end up burning up too much heat because we're running the steam temp turbine too hot so we'll automate this just a little bit here so that we don't bring in more magma if we don't need to now as you could imagine we are sweeping out a lot of this igneous rock once it just cools down below that 1,400 degrees Celsius that it would normally be so I'm thinking here we then run this to a second chamber where we're going to have a conveyor rail like this and that will essentially be a cooling loop where we're actually going to cool that down for 1,400 degrees Celsius down to below again 200 degrees or so and the cool thing about this is we could do this all in vanilla now because we can actually put a thermal sensor on the rail right here and whether or not the igneous rock has become cool enough and then the final step there will be to deliver the igneous to a chute and then run it through a sweepy where it will sweep up deliver to a dock taking away that extra hot material and then we can kind of use that cold igneous rock at this point probably cool things like the steam turbine and possibly some of these auto sweepers if they need not so this should be possible to do with steel so let's see if we can come up with average meant that'll work so first thing I'm going to do here is just do this number and I'm gonna give it a little extra tile here on the right and left alright so here we have our volcano and now we're just going to have some space for that to go down there and for ice we've got to run around and do its thing now you know what our speaker box really only require one tile tall hmm maybe just maybe we can get away with doing this number now for this design we're going to be using steel for all of this stuff that way it has a meltdown temperature that's hot enough to where the volcano actually will not destroy it all right so the thing about the sweepy docks and the sweetie bought itself and the current version of the came they don't have an overheat temperature and they will only meltdown at the temperature it you know based on the material that you build it with so the high-temperature versions of these with steel or tungsten or something like that can withstand the temperature that's the volcano puts out so they'll get hot but they won't melt the other thing is though that you're going to have to supply you're going to have to power it up using something like steel wires and whatnot so that doesn't melt and then the raw material that you supply to the dock has to be made from the correct material so in this case we're actually going to go ahead and use a little bit of Steel so you can see here the Swee'Pea dock requires 25 kilograms of refined metal and if we use steel to supply the creation of this bot you'll see that the actual sweetie bond itself has the overheat temperature of 2400 degrees Celsius if we were to supply at iron or something like that our bot would actually melt when it goes into the magma so you got to be careful that of that oh this side might be a little bit more challenging hmm because you it isn't the same spot okay hmm hmm it does not look like we can actually set up two of these I can't seem to find a spot where that would actually work all right so we're just going to work with the one singular bot all right so if I make the bottle empty your hair out of obsidian again it too will not melt all right now there's a chance that we're going to get some solids over here on the right so I want to make sure I have an out for that material as well so let's go ahead and put a conveyor loader over here as well just in case I do have to deal with that maybe this is where I put the mechanized airlock so that we can actually get into here do the construction that we need to do to build this thing all right so now that we have the bottle emptier we're actually going to be dumping the magma out of here so in this scenario over here I'm kind of using like a little waterfall method I don't really think that that's necessary it seems like everything that needs to happen happens right here so I think I will avoid making that any more complicated than it actually needs to be and maybe even just flipping so it drains off to the right all right so as you can imagine we're going to be draining magma out of this little model hemp tier right here so the real question is how quickly does it run so if we just run this at normal speed mop that up real quick I'm guessing it runs at about ten kilograms per second or pretty close to that yeah that seems about right something about like that all right to make this thing actually build a bowl I'm actually going to go ahead and use Citian in all of this spots right here because they're not quite as critical considering this is going to be a vacuum there's a good chance we won't even have to worry about the temperature to begin with however all of this down here since it is double layered and we are dealing with magma right there this is made out of insulated ceramic so obtainable for sure but a little less expensive that is going to protect too much heat getting down here to the steam turbines all right so right down here we're going to have two steam turbines that should deal with plenty of heat and then we've made this a little bit taller here because what we can do now is we can go ahead and use a power station inside of here recent update actually allow the power station now to affect the steam turbine so that we can get a little bit extra power out of these so we'll need to be able to get inside of here so let's just go ahead and give it a door and they we go so now this room here should be a power plant yeah there we go cool okay so now that I have this magma here it's going to be quite hot over here on the left and I need to kind of move that heat around so I think I'm just going to go ahead and use gold tiles to do this number great like a little spout just like so I think that'll work so the magma will come down here it'll hit this tile and I think that'll kind of spread the heat out a little bit here this is gold and gold is going to be able to transfer the liquid to heat within it very very quickly so that's why I'm using gold over anything else and then we're actually going to dump the liquid down next to the part where it's probably going to be the hottest in what might be a decent attempt at trying to keep the temperatures somewhat even I don't know we'll see I'm sure there's plenty of experimentation that we can do right here plus there this might be an opportunity where oil will actually make a difference but for right now I think that's going to be all we need in this area the other thing that we want to put down here that's going to be really important it's going to be an auto sweeper we need to be able to pick up the igneous rock whenever we get enough of it and we need to load that into kind of a shipping rail oh and it's going to be hot so we can use this shipping rail over here to kind of push some heat back into these metal tiles I'm guessing this is going to be plenty hot over here so let's just kind of do this number all right so to set up more turbines or to just circulate igneous rock around and around in this area the thing is if I circulate it around in this area it's going to overheat the steam turbines because I don't have any way to kind of control that so there's probably gonna be some tweaking here well let's go ahead and send it to a second chamber where we have more turbines and we're producing even more power and just like before we're going to have this power station thing awesome and we can do that number just like so all right let's change up the shipping rail here I want this to come over and then go back jump from here to here alright so right down here we're just going to have a cooling loop so this is going to continue to run around and around and once it reaches a cold enough temperature then we're going to let it kick the material out so that will go in here just like so kind of town this machine here will survive but we're going to dry it anyhow today why and then attempt to actually keep this machine here from melting I'm going to put it over there because I'm trying to make that out of Steel alright so if it is cold enough over here and in this case probably below 190 degrees Celsius then rather than continuing to go around and around inside the loop it's going to kick out and we're gonna leave this one tile right there just like so and then connect it up here like that alright cool so the liquid discharged in this situation is going to happen right down here okay so at this point the temperature should be relatively cold it might be right around 400 degrees or it might be closer to 190 kind of depends on how efficiently this setup here works but once we're through there we should be able to drop down all the material over here and then let a sweepy bot pick it up and then at that point that's going to cool it back down to kind of around 20 degrees Celsius so they have point we could put a little sleepy dude right down here and we can work on just shipping this stuff back out so I'm just gonna set it up to where this auto sweeper here can only pick up out of the sweepy dock and then I'll throw it inside of a loader alright so now we got to deal with the power now each one of these is 850 watts however if we boost that I believe that goes up to a 1275 watts at its maximum output so we actually have a lot of power that we're trying to move through this I think it almost makes sense just to use heavy want wires inside of here because we are delivering so much power so rather than having that right there I think I'm going to go ahead and take very rail over here like this and then bring it back and then use this area to transfer power so they use heavy watt joint plates through this so in this area we'll use some heavy watch joint plates just like so and then run that in mmm build it up go there we go now we can get all of this power out somewhere alright so here's the power grid it really doesn't actually use that much power you know possibly 1300 watts to run all but honestly it won't run that often just a couple of sweepy dogs those are the only real big consumers there alright so let me just set everything up here the conveyer loader is going to be set to all in both situations this liquid is going to be set to all we're going to set it to a higher priority than the sweepy dock so that it the auto sweeper wants to pick it up out of here and deliver it over there alright so there was one more thing that I needed to do here so this is hopefully nice and cool and I want to bring it up and run it through this area over here just in case the auto sweeper gets too hot so bring it up here just like this boom oh you know what let's go ahead and just drop it right there I also want to make sure that this loop has a direction so it's going to be that way alright so there we go now as far as what I'm going to do with the water here I'm just going to put four hundred kilograms into each zone so that's gonna be four hundred here and four hundred there that will turn to steam and that's going to be the only thing in that environment and then I'm going to try to fill these just with oxygen to see if the steam turbines will be alright with that same thing goes for this chamber down here just a little bit of oxygen maybe mixed gases or whatever and out of curiosity wonder what happens if I put oxygen up here alright here we go whoa whoa that's happening fast sweepy you're drowning in magma okay this thing is emitting 376 kilograms of magma per second right there that is a lot of magma look a little sleepy pot though how much do you have on you right now one hundred and seventy eight kilograms of magma and a bit of ceramic as well holy moly that's a lot of magma but we have 16 cycles to make use of all this magma awesome okay I kind of take back the whole part where I said this is made out of obsidian that's probably not a good choice right about now that you've probably made of insulated ceramic and double wall right there so let's just quickly correct that ceramic maybe just do this number two all right there we go I'm happy with that okay so here we go now this bottle emptier is dropping the magma down here oh okay that's the one thing I forgot here what I need to have down here is a thermal sensor I got to find a good spot for this maybe right here maybe right there is a good spot for it but what I'm looking to do here is to disable this this auto sweeper if the temperature down here is too hot our favorite lawn mowers are back by the way let's say this is below 200 degrees Celsius as you can see it's currently at 150 degrees then it's going to be enabled okay interesting this water here is not interacting with the conveyor rail I thought it would actually affect this nope I guess that was it's not a thing so let's make that double-thick then it's brushing a little bit of water here and we should see the temperatures here go up yes there we go so what we can see here is that we're now bringing in all of this igneous here we do have a little bit of steam you can also see the temperature of the igneous rock that's moving past this thermal sensor right there there we go see now it's running all right so here's what's happening over here the igneous rock that is here is on the rail and it's still a little bit too hot so this arrangement up here is not working out quite as well as I would hope so I'm going to have to make a modification to this all right sorry about the lawnmower it's just made all sorts of noise in the background alright so here's what we can do the problem is that we get igneous rock and it is staying right here so what I really want to do is disable this auto sweeper if we already have material staged so I can go ahead and use another little bit of sensors right here so I can look for an element on the rail you can set it to be that spot right there and then use a not gate to send the correct signal up to the auto sweeper there all right so it's looking for igneous rock it says it found it so therefore sending a not signal to this all right you know what this is actually working out a little bit better here okay all right so what I did over here is I changed this to be below 170 degrees Celsius so that it has a little bit more range to work with and because we're already detecting this the auto sweepers staying disabled quite a bit longer so therefore we're not delivering too much the rail we're not leaving that really really hot stuff just sitting there or sitting inside of the conveyor loader oh okay okay getting awfully close to the 275 degrees though that it you know could potentially run at temperature wise it's definitely hotter over here on the right and it makes me wonder if I should be doing something different with the liquid like this these things are overheating again hydrogen did not make enough of a difference you can see that I do have igneous rock on on the line here but it's well it's at 50 degrees Celsius and it's really not it's not going on that it's not going up that hot so using igneous rock on the line here to keep the steam turbines cool doesn't seem to be working it it might be doing enough to keep these cool but not not enough to keep out forward but you know what what if we did something different what if we what if we created a cooling loop a continuous cooling loop inside of here using these conveyer rails so what if I gave this an element sensor and then a conveyor shut off right here now the thing about what I can do here is I can detect basically I could detect how much is on the rail by running it through a filter gate all right so check this out if I use automation I can run this through a filter gate and it will have to detect igneous rock for long enough and if it does then at that point we can actually kick some of it out otherwise it's just going to keep looping around and around so if I count up the amount of rails I have here I have something like 22 so if I go to the automation and I say let's say let's try to keep the 15 of them on the rail let's see what happens so you can see that igneous rock yeah it's just staying there yeah look at that alright so it's just collecting this nice and as crazy as this sounds this oh I thought it was keeping the temps down yeah okay so here's what you do right so we're detecting a certain type here and if our line is pretty much maxed out and then we let it do its thing otherwise the other thing that we want to do over here is to have a thermal sensor so if we're above a certain temperature then we want to kick it out as well so we'll say in this case if it's above 70 degrees then off it goes all right that was interesting but it isn't really working at plan C so Plan C is I'm going to take some steel or metal essentially something that's far more thermally conductive here and end up running that over and over through this rail system so that we get a bit of igneous rock but we're also getting a lot of metal which is going to work to cool the steam turbines I'm not giving up on this idea yet watch this inside of here what I'm going to do is put a little bit of gold what do we have there ooh 435 kilograms that should work so we're gonna ship gold on the rail that is going to take a lot of the heat out of the air watch this see how much that Hey hey come on you know you want to do it I think I'm gonna have to add another checkpoint no let's see let's just let it go so the gold is shipping around you can see that it's quite hot doing its thing this is looking for anything that is is gold and then at that point it's going to ship it back down to the bottom where the sweetie bot is going to cool it anything that is not gold will be shipped out and then right down here it's just reinserted the bot picks it up it seems like I might want to add a second sweetie ba down here alright next I'm gonna modify this just a little bit here so the sweetie bot runs a little bit faster you know what it needs to be tweaked even more alright so the little guys doing a lot of work but he can only go so fast actually so it seems like that's about as quickly as I can move this stuff out of there alright so this one sweetie bot is nowhere near fast enough to make all that work let's see if I can multiply it a little bit there we go we'll fill this whole area with sweetie bots bring in the conveyor rail and I'll split it just like this and then going to block off the top of this so hopefully my sweepers don't accidentally look down there oh darn it they do oh there's a spot right there hmm there's gotta be a way to do this maybe this is the trick nope haven't found it yet there's sweep ease yes there we go that's the arrangement mmm-hmm and then if we use the autoloaders here we should be able to ship it right back out now how to get the the rails set up well we need these two to be together like this and together like that and they too need to split lettuce to come up here like this and then we fork it off like that there we go so now we evenly divide them into all those spots this one can just run over there like so and then that one could just join that line and I think we're good to go power wise okay there's a lot more things to power down here yeah we're gonna put a bunch of gold in here there we go I just have a bunch of bots fighting over it and then hopefully this will cool things down enough to get these generators up and running again see here we have a bunch of gold coming in it's getting dropped and then it shipped here is a little bit of gold at 28 degrees Celsius 22 22 not bad you know what gold is probably the wrong material to be using let's eject it out of here I want something with a higher specific heat capacity hmm I think diamonds going to be a good candidate for this this is such a strange way to deal with anything come on sweet peas you can do it I'll be honest with you the sweepers are not keeping up with the heat that the turbines want to kick out now this just isn't working alright so so far what has worked everything out of here up until the point where we have to keep the steam turbines cool so we can go ahead and just get rid of all of this we don't need that stuff we'll just roll with one sweepy whoa and we can use that to just kind of cool this stuff down and ship it out not a big deal you're gonna even just use a dispenser just like so so you can see everything that's coming out here is nice and cool that'll save us a lot on now the conveyor rails you really don't need all of these rid of all of that and we'll see if we still need to run it past this little guy right there or not all right now we need to deal with the heat inside of here so let's go ahead and do that number all right so I've gone ahead and set up a more traditional cooling loop here so we have the crude oil flowing through here like this and if it's above a certain temperature then it's just going to be cooled and drop in here otherwise it just goes on by so that's set to 50 degrees Celsius inside of there and as you can see it's keeping the steam turbines nice and cool they're nice and happy and everything else is starting to run and run well so now let's see just how much igneous we can get out of here at a relatively cool temperature all right so we can see a dramatic difference in the temperature down here this one over here is really cold and over one over on the left is too hot so I think splitting up the liquid flow there is a good idea ooh but this over here just got too hot what does it contain iron ore all right so it looks like I might want to include this stuff up here in the cooling loop it's kind of hoping I wouldn't have to do that I do need to do it this shipper isn't even doing anything so let's just get rid of that honestly it has no purpose all right so again I'm kind of running into a little bit of temperature problems here I think I'm gonna have to try water instead crude oil is not quite as effective all right so - hopefully deal with my temperature problems once and for all I'm going to use polluted water instead of crude oil it'll give us a little bit more temperature range than just the normal clean water and it does have a higher specific heat capacity so it should be a little bit more effective all right there we go see that's working a lot better now let's take a look at these temps much much better 60 degrees I can work with that Hey look at this we have over 1,000 kilograms of igneous rock right here at 27 degrees all right so things seem to be running stable so I'm going to let this run for a few cycles and see what kind of numbers we get here oh you know what I just thought of something that might make this a little bit fast if we deliver some over here then the sweepy collects on both sides delivers sweeps it up delivers aha increasing my production volume nice all right so I've let this run for two cycles now and we have a total of three thousand three hundred kilograms so it seems as if one little sweeper dock down here can do about 1,650 kilograms per cycle so that's kind of the cooling rate here to go from about 300 some degrees down to 20 aha so I was editing the video and I was looking at this spot I'm like you know what I think I came up with a better idea of how to make this sweep he runs a ton faster it picks up when it goes over this and then it keeps moving and then it hits a wall comes back and it picks up again however if we could spread out the material then we should be able to use one sweep you to its maximum capacity which means we can move a lot more through the dog all right my second thought here is can I possibly use a signal counter or something like that to control which one of these shoots is open all right here we go I got a bunch of counters set up it's looking for a certain element here this first one always wants to stay on one what oh no the numbers aren't really working out oh hi what alright well so much for that idea let's get rid of all that automation I was really looking for something to use that new automation with but yeah it's not gonna work there's an easier way of doing this the old-school way all right yeah there we go this is working out a ton better look at all these little sweet peas doing the thing and they're moving a good amount of material look at that boom what I'm sort of curious about is why are some of these hot while others are cold that's still a 160 degrees Celsius what happened to my beautiful set output temperature was it because it was in a vacuum all right so now we're in a vacuum no it's still doing I had a 159 degrees why okay does it just have to do with what material the sweet pea pod is made out of why is it at 115 and what am serious thing I have no idea why some are hot and some are cold what any number of temperature no I guess it just doesn't really care all right well interesting what's it because there was liquid in there just throw a little water down it's gonna steam up real quick mop up the rest of it will go back to filling okay so each one has a little bit of water inside of it no that isn't it alright so looking back at this I can see that the temperature that's coming out of here is actually quite hot so yeah I don't know the set output temperature thing from the sweep you must have been alright so it looks as if the temperature that is flowing out of here is actually not cool I guess the set output temperature of the sweepy thing would maybe I got patched away or something I don't maybe for whatever reason it was showing up but it isn't now the point is it's not happening anywhere so I don't think we really need any of this stuff at all it is not really needed so let's go ahead and just put the chute right there and call this good if you have a need for it you can do something with it if you want to run it through more steam turbines you can cool it down even more but right now I'm not gonna worry about it anymore because there's nothing else to explore okay alright so let's take a look at what has worked out here the sweepy up here at the top has actually worked out really good you can put in a lot of magma here this thing doesn't seem to ever end up underwater or anything like that so it's not a big deal and it survives the intense heat of the volcano so you can actually build this up to be a really big cylinder if you really wanted to and store up lots and lots of magma that way so when your volcano goes dormant like it is right now you have lots of heat that you can use for a long long time this little arrangement here with the auto sweeper to go in there and pick up out of the dock works out fantastically it stays nice and cool with a little bit of a cooling loop that's running behind there as well that runs on over here - a bottle emptier made of obsidian to withstand the temperature runs right down here and there's a thermal sensor that is set to be below 170 degrees Celsius that actually works out pretty good here running a couple of steam turbines we obviously have a thermal aqua tuner and that is hooked up just like this to the machine and I have that set to be above 20 degrees Celsius so when that loop runs around the input side of this you know can either go in here and out there which is cooling it or if it's disabled it skips on by the water flowing back out of here from the steam turbines tends to do a pretty good job of keeping them balanced believe it or not obviously you could take this idea and you can you can blow it up really big if you really really want it to I think there's room to probably put even more bottle emptier different methods that you might be able to think of to get it from here to even more response but this arrangement here does work out pretty cool and that's kind of a neat new thing because I've never used a sweet pea dock to do something like that there's obviously other arrangements that we've used in the past like doors are kind of falling off the edges that really do the same sort of thing but hey sweet view brats are cool and then right down here we're obviously using the new conveyors rail sensors here to disable the loader over here I actually disabled the sweeper so that we don't fill up the loader too much and cause it to get too hot so this allows us to go into that second stage of cooling where we're cooling down the solid igneous rock you know as far as we really want to go we can make this as big as we wanted to and really really extract a lot of energy out of this if we wanted to how this automation is working just to recap is it's looking for an igneous rock we've flipped that using a nought signal and just run that straight to the auto sweeper pretty simple and then that runs through a rail just like this and we are detecting the temperature over here I have it set to 400 so that it runs pretty much at the maximum rate up here for these steam turbines you can see that the temperature of the steam right there is about 192 over there on the right and a little bit cooler bouncing between around 150 to 160 maybe even 180 or so on the right side so this kind of bounces a little bit the output temperature of this igneous rock right now is at 370 degrees Celsius the sweepy bots for actually cooling that down even further didn't actually work out so you may want to take that and run it through a third set of steam turbines to really get that temperature down to a very low number something like 150 degrees Celsius or so honestly working with something like this really isn't that terrible you can do it inside your base although would try to get it a little bit lower you could lower this number it will slow everything down the amount of power that we're actually getting out of this is actually doing pretty good so in the previous cycle right there we were able to generate 1,900 kilojoules right there before you go and buff it with the power control station so that's a pretty good number and the previous cycle before that one was 1916 kilojoules so yes you can absolutely extract a ton of power out of all of this magma right here and this gives you I think some good ideas to kind of work with and expand on and I don't know try to solve taming a magma volcano and yet another way maybe using some some sweetie bonds I'll have a blueprint to this in the description below if you want to download it and give it a try inside of your base thanks for watching guys
