Thermally Connected Vats #413

Open metalmint opened 3 months ago

metalmint commented 3 months ago

Description

Vats should be able to transfer heat to each other if they are sharing walls (or if that overlap causes problems, have it be if their walls are touching, though I feel that might create some weird edge cases with the geometry of the corners and all) Visual clarification: image

Problem This Addresses

I feel this would massively flesh out heat management when it comes to vats, even with how the mod is right now it would be very very interesting to utilize and solve problems with, and would pair extremely well with many other additions such as boiling points changing depending on vat pressure (which can be used to for example rapidly cool water by utilizing vacuums) or locational vat material conductivity (like replacing the wall in between two vats of tinted glass with copper casing to maximize the transfer of heat while minimizing loss to the environment)
