Sawyer coal power plant

描述
This addon features a large coal power plant located on the Sawyer islands.

Description
This power plant was built in 1920s, but was abandoned in late 1990s. In 2032 this island became necessary because of many engineers and researchers coming here. Residents called them stormworkers. So all equipment was repaired and now everything is ready to go! Maintain your power plant and earn money!

DISCLAIMER
1. I know that power plant scheme is totally incorrect and has almost nothing equal with real coal power plants. Please don't rage because of that, we are in the stormworks world.
2. I know that this scheme is trash and doesn't have 100% efficiency. It is made on purpose to make gameplay more interesting and increase coal consumption so it makes sense to deliver coal. Anyway you can't do much with all this electricity. (how about catenary, devs?)
3. This thing is pretty laggy. I noticed that every time I load and unload the building tickrate drops. I don't how this works, but if tickrate is very low, you may try to restart the game.
4. WARNING!!! Don't save your game if plant is loaded! Go far away until it unloads and then save.

Installation
Create new world -> Enabled addons -> Workshop -> Check "Sawyer coal power plant"

Features
  • Large old-looking building
  • Fully working coal system
  • Three big boilers, turbines and generators
  • Max power ~9000sW
  • Electricity selling mechanics
  • Convenient location near the north harbor

Firing up
Those steps should be done for each of the boilers
1. Open coal hatches on the coal conveyor.
2. Turn on "control panel" switches in the electricity room
3. Go to control room (3rd floor)
4. Set coal/min lever to maximum
5. Wait until there is at least 4 coal
6. Fire up
7. Wait until boilers heat and water level drops to 0
8. Switch on steam pumps and water pumps 1 (they pump water from cooling tower to water tanks)
9. Add power to coolant pump (at least 0.15 is recommended)
10. Activate water pumps 2 (they pump water from tanks to boiler)
11. Add some water flow. Power begins to rise at ~0.2, the maximum power is reached at ~0.55.
12. Now set coal/min lever to desired position. Notice: coal wouldn't go more than 25.

What can go wrong
  • Watch pressure sensors. If pressure rises fast, it is better to lower water flow.
  • There are three steam valves near the boilers. They set the pressure limit. If pressure reaches the limit, steam will go in the air. If that happend, you should check fresh water level in the tanks.
  • If steam valves are set to maximum and pressure reaches 10 everything will blow up. (:

Earning money
Just type "?payment" in the chat and get your money. Amount of money depends on the total power you produce (and how long you produce of course). Don't do this very frequently, otherwise you'll get "no energy generated" message.

Things to keep in mind
  • Starting coal level is 1491
  • Maximum coal level is 4865
  • Average consumption on the full power is ~10-12 coal/min.
  • By default "always active" is set to false

(you need extended area to edit it)
You can make your own versions of this addon (e.g. put this plant in a different place), but please credit me.

The water level goes to zero constantly and no energy is produced. Why is this?

a long time ago, this is now deprecated i guess, since i have no time and will to fix this.

When was the last time you updated the build?

could you possibly make another mod where the power selling thing is in the creative/ multiplayer base so you can make power using your own creations and selling it (maybe you could make something like the power connection in creative base but seperate and for selling power

Boo, but ok anyways. It was fun to figure out with friends. Any creations you recommend to use to get it more coal?

ah, the big stack is actually a cooling tower, it doesn't produce smoke/steam
Idiotgameing 2 月 27 日 下午 1:04 
I disabled both elec and fuel, and the small ones put out black smoke, however the big one didnt do anything.
Firyst  [作者] 2 月 27 日 上午 6:02 
just as boilers ignite. Check if infinite fuel is disabled

when does the big stack start producing smoke?
