Space Radiator

This mod adds a new utility building called “Space Radiator”, that radiates heat off into space.

New Building: Space Radiator

• exchanges heat with the fluid pumped through it.
• When the radiator panels are fully exposed to space, it will constantly emit heat radiation into space.
• Still exchanges heat with environment (gasses, liquids) when not fully exposed to space, therefore it can be used as a very potent radiant pipe / heatsink.
• Can be folded to protect against meteor impacts.
• Material choice affects the heat capacity & thermal conductivity of the building
• THE SCIENCE™ (Calculates the amount of energy radiated based on the Stefan–Boltzmann constant and and associated calculations, aka: higher temperature => higher cooling rate)
• When it breaks, it will close to prevent fully destructing the radiator, however it needs to be repaired to work again.

• adds a interior exclusive radiator that has to be placed attached to a side wall.

• Locked behind the research “Liquid Tuning”.
• Requires 800 refined metal.
• Material choice affects radiation rate and heat exchange rate with fluid pumped through.
• does not require power
• fully rotatable
• can be folded by disabling the building either manually or via automation wire. (Disabling won’t stop fluids from getting pumped through.)
• due to limitations set by the way the game loads, the radiator will refold itself on loading a save, during this time it’s vulnerable.

Thanks again to the Oni Modding Discord who again helped me with debugging, feature implementation and brainstorming. Much thanks to Sky for letting me use her radiator code -> skys github[github.com].

Please post bug reports and issues on my GitHub[github.com]. In case of a crash, please add the log.
