Blast Furnace

Mastering Extreme Heat with the Blast Furnace Mod

For ambitious duplicants venturing into the harshest environments of Oxygen Not Included, managing extreme temperatures can be a constant challenge. Introducing the Blast Furnace mod, a game-changing addition that provides a powerful, controllable source of intense heat precisely when and where you need it most.

Unleash Unprecedented Thermal Power

The Blast Furnace is a new building designed to generate massive amounts of heat by consuming Refined Carbon and Oxygen. With a steady supply of fuel, this furnace dramatically heats up its surrounding tile, reaching an impressive thermal output. The heat generation ramps up gradually over a minute, ensuring you can manage its activation effectively. Its design makes it perfect for overcoming geological challenges or providing essential warmth during critical periods.

Key Features of the Blast Furnace

This mod offers several compelling advantages for your colonies:

• Intense Heat Generation: Rapidly heats surrounding tiles to extreme temperatures.
• Resource Consumption: Utilizes Refined Carbon and Oxygen, integrating with existing resource loops.
• Controllable Output: Heat ramps up over 60 seconds, allowing for strategic deployment.
• Automatable: Integrate it into your automation networks for seamless operation.
• Visual Feedback: An indicator dial on the building shows its current internal heat level, with additional information available on hover.

Strategic Applications for Your Colony

The primary purpose of the Blast Furnace is to offer dispatchable heat. Imagine needing to temporarily boost the temperature around a dormant volcano to prevent unwanted cooling, or melting stubborn, heat-resistant tiles that are otherwise intractable. This mod empowers you to tackle these unique environmental puzzles with newfound ease. The building’s simple yet effective interface, including the visual heat indicator, ensures you’re always in control of this potent thermal tool. Integrate the Blast Furnace into your base designs and unlock new possibilities for managing your colony’s thermal landscape.
