How to made canister bombs.

[Zaffinomlb]

I don't know how, and if someone does explain it.

[youngbuckliontiger]

Heat up a plasma canister to 500.
insert a full oxygen tank and change pressure to highest.
Open the canister then run.

[Raven776]

If you get two cannisters, one full of superheated plasma and the other full of superchilled oxygen, and then you connect them to connectors, then to a single pipeline separated by only a manual valve, what happens when you turn the valve?

Does it explode? Where does it explode? Does the entire pipe burst, do the cannisters blow out, does the valve blow out? Does it find a middle point?

The canisters burst and a fire starts.

Canisters dont rupture no matter the pressure, pipes haven't done that for years either

Bring back individual tile atmos processing 2015, blow up the distro with normal pressure errday

Thank fuck for that. I remember popping a pipe in toxins back before you could make more. Game over.

[Malkevin]

They still have it on Goon, and their main power source is a thermal gen.

Suffice to say, my first time setting it up managed to set the hot room on fire.

It's not so much pressure eruption, it's the fact that in each canister there is now the working of a tank transfer valve bomb. Supercool oxy to XX pressure, superheated plasma to XX pressure...

Theoretically, that makes a boom, right? So where is the boom if the canister bomb is the entirety of the atmos distro loop.

[Malkevin]

No, no boom.

Canisters dont rupture ever.
Only tanks rupture.

[MrStonedOne]

They boom.

It just requires like 10 zeros

[Raven776]

What if you had a tank in each canister set to open?

Edit: So here's my idea. If I were to go onto metastation, disconnect the distro loop from atmospherics after draining it, switch the input with a single connector, and then find all of the random connectors all around the station and replace them with supercooled oxytanks full of oxygen (really would just need to superfill one tank and then connect it) and stuffed with a tank set to open and then went back to the input and slapped down a superheated plasma tank with no tank in it so that all of atmos would become one giant TTV mix, what would happen? I could see this going numerous ways.

Nothing happens: Oxy and plasma mix harmlessly in the pipes and then the tanks fill with the 50-50 plasma oxy mix of a certain, non-exploding temperature.

Ka-boom: The tanks mix and then explode, though not very big or strong because canister bombs in maint with a very shitty gas value aren't going to do much damage.

???: Pipes break for some unknown reason, game crashes because reasons, or go start up my own server to test this out?

[MrStonedOne]

FUND IT!

You can either wait till you have access to atmos while tator or start up your test server

[Raven776]

I lag too much and dragging canisters would be waaay too sketchy to do this in a regular round without being too sure of the payoff...

Time to download the latest build again.

Or you can test it live in toxins like a good little mad scientist

[Raven776]

The only real way to test it is to either set up a large atmospherics rig with pipes, connectors, and canisters somewhere or to use it on the atmos loop. I've gotten pretty close to doing it on the mining asteroid, but shuttle call generally favors the more moderate side of 2 hours.

[Knaive]

I just tried it out on my own and got my results.

With a canister of hot plasma at 1007°C/33346.7 kPa and an cooled oxygen canister at -251°C/3628.1 kPa connected via a manual valve, they reached a point of equilibrium in about 10 seconds, with

Pressure: 1.97527e+006 kPa
Nitrogen: 0%
Oxygen: 85%
CO2: 14%
Plasma: 0%
Temperature: 22255°C

So Malkevin was right that the canisters don't rupture.

On another note I broke the canisters with my welder and the gases from the cans never moved from their origin, leading to one spot being super hot and the area around it being room temperature.

Must be a bug related to the atmos code not knowing the air in that tile was changed, air pumps are good for this as it forces the air in the area to start circulating.

If that doesn't work then its a flat out bug with how atmos propagates gases in general

[Knaive]

There are a few bugs that I noticed while doing this, like when I repiped atmos I had to unwrench then replace most of the pumps I had put down so the gases would actually start moving in the pipes.
