Fan Tiles

Revolutionize Fluid and Gas Management with Fan Tiles

Tired of cumbersome pipe networks in Oxygen Not Included? Introducing Fan Tiles, a powerful and energy-efficient mod designed to streamline your colony’s fluid and gas transportation systems. This innovative addition provides a unique alternative to traditional pumps and vents, offering a more streamlined and cost-effective solution for managing your critical resources.

Effortless Transport, Unmatched Efficiency

Fan Tiles function as a singular unit, seamlessly drawing in liquids or gasses from one end and expelling them from the other. This dual-action tile eliminates the need for extensive conduit layouts, simplifying your base construction. At a mere 60 watts of continuous power consumption, Fan Tiles move substantial amounts of resources – 5kg/s for liquids and 500g/s for gasses – matching the output of standard pumps but at a fraction of the energy cost. It’s crucial to note that Fan Tiles do not connect to pipes; instead, they vent their contents directly, similar to a standard vent. Be mindful of overpressurization, as they adhere to the game’s existing limits for both liquids and gasses.

Advanced Options for Evolving Colonies

As your duplicants progress, so too will the capabilities of Fan Tiles. Early in your technological journey, standard Fan Tiles become available, mirroring the unlock point of basic pumps. Later, upon researching High Pressure Vents, a specialized High Pressure Fan Tile is unlocked. This variant boasts an impressive output capacity, capable of venting into gasses up to 20kg per tile.

For the most demanding industrial applications, Compressor Fan Tiles emerge as a game-changer. These advanced tiles serve as a superior alternative to door compressors, effortlessly exhausting into any gas or liquid environment without succumbing to overpressure or taking damage. While requiring Refined Metals and Plastic to construct and consuming 120 watts, their ability to handle extreme pressures makes them indispensable for complex gas management systems.

Identifying Your Fan Tile Solutions

Distinguishing between the various Fan Tile types is made easy through their distinct color coding:

* **Yellow:** Standard Gas Fan Tile (60w, 500g/s gas, 2kg/tile overpressure)
* **Purple:** Standard Liquid Fan Tile (60w, 5kg/s liquid, 1000kg/tile overpressure)
* **Orange:** High Pressure Gas Fan Tile (60w, 500g/s gas, 20kg/tile overpressure)
* **Red:** Compressor Gas Fan Tile (120w, 500g/s gas, no overpressure)
* **Blue:** Compressor Liquid Fan Tile (120w, 5kg/s liquid, no overpressure)
