Lava Power

Description
Ready to harness the heat of the earth even further than just geothermal vents? want a power solution with some hair on its chest? Lava power introduces a reinforced complex capable of using the heat of lava to generate power.

Once you research geothermal power you can use that knowledge and build a generator on a plasteel-reinforced column that acts like an advanced geothermal plant, pumping out a whopping 4,000 Watts while lava is underneath it.
Note that it needs deeper occurrences of lava to operate, and cant be used with shallower/flowing lava, primarily limiting it to use around lava lakes.

I am not responsible for any worker injuries related to contact with lava.


Current building costs for the lava generator:

-Construction 9
-220 Steel
-100 Plasteel
-7 Components

Thank you for returning to modding.
Do you think we could get a lava mining mod?
Even if it's random metallic resources, it would still be cool.

Feel free to ignore me but I was wondering if you thought about integrating this with Dubs Hygiene and making it need to be hooked up to water when that mod is installed. Think it would be a cool bit of extra mechanic.

You're right. I thought I had already listed odyssey as a requirement, my bad!

Hello Horologium. That's an interesting mod.
So I created a mod " [1.6] [Sub-MOD] Lava Power add Japanese Translation " that adds a Japanese translation for your mod and published it on the workshop. Thank you!

P.S.
Since lava is only available in the Odyssey DLC, it might be a good idea to include a workshop description that requires the DLC.
