Mineralizer Reborn
Revitalize Your Water Production with Mineralizer Reborn
For those looking to diversify their resource management in Oxygen Not Included, the Mineralizer Reborn mod offers a unique and essential building. Expanding upon the functionality of an earlier creation, this mod introduces a building that acts as a perfect counterpoint to the Desalinator, allowing for the creation of saltwater from readily available water and salt.
A New Approach to Saltwater Generation
The Mineralizer, found within the Refinement tab and requiring a modest amount of metal to construct, is designed to efficiently produce saltwater. Unlike buildings that consume saltwater, the Mineralizer takes clean water and salt as inputs, outputting the desired saltwater. This process is energy-intensive, requiring a steady power supply, but it operates autonomously once salt is supplied, freeing up your duplicants for other critical tasks. The temperature of the output saltwater mirrors that of the input water, providing predictable thermal properties.
Key Features of Mineralizer Reborn:
- Saltwater Synthesis: Converts water and salt into saltwater.
- Independent Operation: Requires power and salt delivery but no duplicant labor for the process itself.
- Temperature Retention: Maintains the input water’s temperature in the output saltwater.
- Additional Recipes: Now includes options for producing brine and nectar.
- Enhanced Visuals: Features updated animations for a more polished experience.
- Localization Support: Includes translations for multiple languages, ensuring accessibility for a global player base.
Strategic Applications
The Mineralizer Reborn opens up several strategic avenues for your colony. It provides a direct method for generating the necessary inputs for Waterweed cultivation, utilizing excavated salt and basic water. Alternatively, if your base requires large quantities of saltwater for its specific thermal characteristics, this building offers a consistent and controllable source. The addition of brine and nectar recipes further enhances its utility, adding more options to your refining processes.
