Ich weiß nichtob ich was falsch mache, aber wenn ich die Türe schließe geht nur der Generator an, die Pumpen rechts sind am klackern aber es reagiert innen kein Vent

Hey i cant start the savegame " object reference not set to an instance of an object"

What was the fix OperationDx?

It took me about 6 hours of troubleshooting but I have it sorted.

Also note that I am using the pre patch build before the refactoring patch. So as the game was before June 2.

I built this to the letter an exact copy. Put in the IC code checked the pins are set correctly and made sure everything was named exactly as it was in the world file. It works in the world file but in a new world it will draw in the cold air and does cool and pressurize the chamber. However the engine will not turn on. If I close myself in the chamber and start the gen until it's warm enough it will run just fine. But it will not run on it's own. And when you do force it to run the IC sometimes will flash orange saying that the code has an error on the line that is supposed to start the gen.

Hi, i need a little Help.
i bild this Generator in my Marsbase und it Works!
But only one time with an new Large Battery.
i close the door again and the Generator dont start again, the Volumepumps dont start, only the Pressure an Temp will adjust.
i replace the Batt and place it again - it works....???
any Ideas?
THXs a lot

lentus2112, You shouldnt have any pressure problems if you follow the active vent setup. Remember the second one in the back is set to pull air out. That way the pressure is always held constant. If the chamber is one block and you have the same number of pumps, the constants shouldn't need to be changed but if you want to mess with them, start with 0 derivative and tweak the proportional first. It may oscillate a bit but you want to get as little overshoot as possible before adding some derivative. It can take some time but you're essentially tuning it like a radio. It's up to you how precise you want to be. In fact, it should be fine with proportional only.

Geekthefreak420, keep in mind the code is batch reading from large station batteries. You may need to change the hash code if you're charging regular size station batteries.

Oh man I didn't check back for the comments. By the way, I will be releasing an improved version of this soon with the tank underneath and a single turbo volume pump so it's even smaller. I'll also post my IC code.

so i been working on mucking with this i got my generator to run stable and continuous with 5.8 line 31 proportional gains pressure was changed to 250 line 49 still working on getting batt detection to work proper so for me i have to go and manually turn it on in the line 62 but once i get it turned on till i go and turn the 1 to a 0 or vise versa it does work

I´ve tried to modify this a little for my Base but i´ve to cope with poressure problems in my setup. Could you please explain to me how to get your "Proportional gain" and "Derivate gain" constants.

Yo been trying to get this to work i keep getting an error on line 55 what could i be doing wrong lmfao i hooked nearly identical only difference is i'm trying to pipe out the waste heat to a tank for furnace instead of venting out the side

Can you up load the IC code to workshop please :)

Great! I've been wanting to get inspired by some compact solution and I'm glad I've stumbled upon this one.
