Condenser Turbine and High Temperature Turbine power priorities #346

Open bits0rcerer opened 5 months ago

bits0rcerer commented 5 months ago

I use a high temperature turbine with condenser turbines on a spaceship. The spaceship has 18 ion thrusters, so the power output of the high temp turbine is plenty enough. According to the numbers, two condenser turbines should be able to consume the 500°C steam from the high temp turbine running in my design. But since both types turbine have the same power prio the condenser turbines do not run at full capacity and do not consume the steam fast enough thus stalling the high temp turbine.

A manual workaround is to periodically flush the 500°C steam pipe but that feels very wrong.

Other workarounds include logic with powerswitches/pumps but to allow condenser turbines to go full capacity by adjusting power priorities feels most natural in this case (at least for me).

What do you think?
