Fusion temperatures are getting a little stupid.

Post by Dr_bee » #504222

Seriously, someone reached 18,873,400,000,000C on the escape shuttle by pumping fusion into the distro.

Tungsten vaporizes at 5930C the surface of a class O star is only around 49726.85.

The canister should vaporize before even getting near that point.

Once i reached 4*10^30 K in a canister. You can't put logic in a game, otherwise many things that are present should be removed, like if you go to space with a shirt only you die in 2 seconds because you should literally explode from the inside due to the low pressure

Also fusion in distro takes time to enter the station, and if someone see that (AI, an engi, an atmos tech), you can react quickly enough to secure some places by shutting down/welding vents and scrubbers preventing the flooding effectively

I am not talking about adding logic, Im talking about adding sanity. temperature of the kind being generated cant really be fixed through normal means such as space heaters and burn through even the suits designed to be immune to heat damage!

I am not talking about adding realism, im talking about balancing fusion temps around sane temperatures.

is fusion, what is a sane temperature for you?

also is already balanced as it takes a long time to make all the required stuff to produce a "low" temperature fusion

also also the suits are not immune to heat, they are heat resistant. Is normal to have a certain threshold above that even hardsuits burn up

Walls let heat pass if it's high enough (even rwalls), but if you make a threshold for canisters you effectively lock out atmos from making fusion because no one will take the risk of doing it just for it to explode on your face. And even if you put a limit, what for? The lowest temperature will still be very much letal and it doesn't change much between 1*10^8 and 1*10^20 K in terms of lethality

The problem is usually the guy doing it is fine with the risks, but the rest of the station doesn't really have a choice if the station suddenly becomes hotter than a star and everyone dies instantly.

Im not sure this is feedback, it's just that most canisters pipes and other atmos sinks and sources are made of an unobtainum that can contain the heat and pressure of the entire universe without rupturing

I unironically suggested wall melting in the past and ya'll laughed at me.

Also if you care about the station, make your reactor in space - you don't need blueprints to create rooms, only to edit existing ones. I kind of wish there was a TEG so you could use fusion's heat to power the station

first of all, there is a teg, but personally I thin it's better if the supermatter generated heat and pressure gases that was then piped into turbines, that actually generated the station power

That's a bit of an understatement. Here's the boiling point of a bunch of metals. Not the melting point, the boiling point. As in gaseous aluminum is achieved at 2467C. Not that I'm strictly speaking making a realism argument or anything, just generally agreeing extreme temperatures should absolutely have some nasty effects that are not solved simply by venting the hot gas. Think melted electronics, equipment, etc.

Like I mentioned before, we are seeing temperatures that are several hundred times hotter than the surface of the hottest star. Not only is that silly from a realism standpoint it makes fixing the problem impossible, as the current tools at the crews disposal cant cool the area fast enough to matter.

I'm pretty sure uncontained fusion is meant to be a round ending event. Just like a singuloth or a tesloose, fusion in the halls is going to end the round.

Not that I don't agree that seeing 20 zeroes in fusion temperature readouts is horrifically retarded, though.

At least with a singulo or tesla you can see what's killing you, or at least make some sane attempt to avoid it.

Fusion gas pumps through the entire station pipe network and has the potential of killing everyone, at once. Just releasing it straight into the air in the center of the station also has the same effect.

There's also not much risk to the actual user since they're likely one of the few people that will know what's going to happen / how to avoid it, wherea singulo and tesla often kill the releaser unless they fuck off to another Z level.

That's literally not how it works. Yes, you'd die with exposure, and vacuum conditions can cause severe damage to soft tissue, you would not explode. Accidents at NASA have shown that people can survive several minutes in near-vacuum conditions, though you pass out after 15 or so seconds without an oxygen supply. With an oxygen tank and some heavy clothing (like a firesuit) you could survive a space walk with no serious damage, though the experience would be unpleasant to say the least. The very idea that we'd explode in low pressure is laughable at the idea that we would implode or flatten at pressures 2-5 times an Earth Atmosphere.

As for the topic at hand, it'd definitely be in the best interest of the game for Canisters, Pumps, Scrubbers and even piping to have maximum limits of pressure and heat they can contain. Perhaps a blue space Canister science could create that would actually allow those ridiculous high temperatures and pressures. May even need to add an actual plasma matter state where gases that reach a certain temperature point convert into a very noticeable cloud of burning gas, even if its just something cosmetic like a green or purple fire effect.

if there was a state where air was so hot that it became a special sprite overlay to indicate it's fusion/plasma hot that'd probably be sane. or give us the firelocks that baycode has to see atmos on the other side so you know you're gonna be husked in seconds if you open it

I dont' agree fusion should be round ending, we have plenty of round enders already.

heat and pressure of that magnitude should always immediately vent into space

Is it time for melting walls, then? If so, I'd recommend having the melting point be something that realistically is only possible through fusion(or thermite usage) so it's primary purpose winds up being as a safeguard against fusion temp flooding.

Fusion has husked an ASHDRAKE IN 3 SECONDS. a being with 2500 health and 50% burn resistance being husked by fusion in 3 seconds

It also instant kills the legion 3x over at round-end.

You can cause the infinate radiation death radius with fusion again by dumping it into the SM. This causes a temp overflow, making the SM think its as cool as possible while the radiation it produces is -inf. This kills anyone walking within a significant ever expanding radius instantly.

The numbers involved in fusion are so high they are causing fucking overflow bugs. Its time to stop.

Lets be real if a high-tier fusion reaction's gas escapes into space with that kind of heat, the star system that SS13 is in will get a MUCH higher ambient temperature in space, along with it being PRESSURIZED.

Alright but seriously, these temperatures and pressures are so high that it makes balancing the TEG (and therefore power) basically impossible. We cant have a PTL because power is so easily broken.

Last night, we had a round where someone's fusion setup on Pubby cooked the gas in atmos, which also cooked space and the spaceloop for the SM.

The result was everyone on the station dying, the supermatter going thermonuclear and us having to rush the end of the round

This was by complete accident and simply having the gas be present in atmospherics. This is getting absolutely fucking stupid.

WYCI isn't really a solution for gamebreaking issues like this. Everyone knows the problem, and you've even proposed a solution, yet none of the contributors or maintaners seem to want to implement it. Maybe it's time for a feature freeze so that the codebus works on bugfixes, optimization, and solving major gamebreaking issues such as this? This thread in particular has been around for well over two months yet fusion floods are still a semi-regular occurrence. It's ridiculous.

We had a fucking plasmaman called "Delamination XXL" decide to turn the station's oxygen supply chamber into a fusion chamber and relied on other people to make a power source there, and just "Expected" viro to make anti rad stuff.

"Lol whats the problem with turning the station's oxygen supply into a new sun"

That shit melted through the walls of the supply.

It wouldn't be THAT hard to tamp down the reaction formulas to bring them down to more realistic levels.

The most sensible solution to me would be to just have stupidly high temps melt the floor (unless its reinforced). Space gives the fusion gas a good succ and the problem kinda resolves itself. People trying to wipe the station would at least have to try to strike a balance instead of just going full throttle on making the hottest gas possible.

Or at the very least they would need to build an ultra-secure containment room with reinforced floors and plasma windows/r-walls which limits the ability for idiots to "accidentally" release the gas.

The issue is that fusion temps are so hot and so abundant that they can literally heat the entire z-level to unlivable levels. Yes, that includes the vast open space surrounding the station, nevermind single tiles exposed to space.

also holy shit an oldman post in current year
