More Tempshift Plates

Enhance Your Thermal Management in Oxygen Not Included with More Tempshift Plates

Mastering the delicate art of temperature control is paramount to survival and prosperity in the harsh environments of Oxygen Not Included. For duplicants to thrive, consistent and stable temperatures are essential, and while the base game offers several tools, the “More Tempshift Plates” mod introduces powerful new options to elevate your thermal management strategies.

Introducing New Thermal Dynamics

This mod injects a significant level of strategic depth by providing three distinct new types of Tempshift Plates, each with unique functionalities designed to address specific in-game challenges. These additions allow for more granular control over heat distribution and retention, empowering players to fine-tune their base designs for optimal efficiency and duplicant comfort.

Key Features of More Tempshift Plates:

• Morphable Tempshift Plate: Adaptable to your needs, this plate boasts a configurable area of effect, allowing you to precisely target specific regions for heating or cooling.
• 2×2 Tempshift Plate: Offering expanded coverage, this plate features a 2×2 area of effect and the added flexibility of being rotatable, ensuring it fits seamlessly into any construction.
• Very Dense Tempshift Plate: This high-performance plate is designed for maximum impact. It possesses a significantly increased mass, yet crucially, it eliminates the building mass penalty. Furthermore, its incredibly low thermal conductivity (1/5) means it excels at localized heat containment or diffusion over a single cell.

Tweaks to Existing Mechanics

Beyond the introduction of new plate types, “More Tempshift Plates” also intelligently modifies the behavior of the vanilla Tempshift Plates. A notable change is the adjustment of the build location rule to “Anywhere,” providing greater freedom in placing these vital thermal regulators. Additionally, the mod addresses a known bug related to the extents of the original Tempshift Plates, ensuring more predictable and reliable performance.

For those who appreciate aesthetic continuity or wish to integrate custom visuals, the mod also makes the original Tempshift Plate artwork accessible within the mod folder. This allows dedicated builders to overwrite the modified artwork with their own creations should they desire.

By expanding the toolkit available for thermal regulation, the “More Tempshift Plates” mod offers a compelling upgrade for any Oxygen Not Included player looking to push the boundaries of base design and achieve new levels of environmental mastery.
