Game Update 535720 - Hot Shots
"We added a Conduction Panel that exchanges heat with buildings that it overlaps with, offering a new way to cool down space industry buildings—or whatever else you’ve decided to build in the glorious vacuum of your asteroid’s surface."

This mod is actually more versatile in a single tile than many would think.
Currently on the 'Hot shots' update as of writing this. I'll be keeping this one for as long as possible. "Works as intended" is a small part of why.

It's always been a must-have and you made it to the basegame, congrats

Thank you for making it for the time we did not have an Basegame Interface Plate. Nice that it made it into the Basegame!

so cool, this a magic.

I love this mod! (Why isn't it part of the base game?)

I've been noticing an unexpected behaviour with this mod: When using aluminium (radiant pipe and TIP) and a Steam Generator, everything is fine and the transfer keeps up. However when I use gold, it doesn't. While this is surprising, gold is not as good as Aluminium as a conductor, so okay, maybe that makes sense.

The unexpected thing is that I can back the steam generator with multiple gold TIP and gold pipes there doesn't seem to be any appreciable change from when using a single one. The liquid (water /salt water/brine) is at a reasonable temperature (1-50c) and the exact temp doesn't seem to make any difference to the amount of heat being moved.

I also had a radbolt generator melt (taking the pipe and TIP with it) and I suspect this is also the reason.

Am I confused as to how this should work?

Cool, thanks!

@nothingtosay The mod allows you to put a transfer medium in vacuum (e.g. space biome). Without it, there wouldn't be heat transfer so any item that builds up heat e.g. rad bolt generator, will eventually melt away unless you find a way to transfer away the heat. Old school way to do so was to drop some liquid on a solid tile that would stand below the heating item, and some plumbing with coolant. With this mod you just strap the plate behind the heating item with the plumbing passing through and you're done.
It's a very useful QoL mod :)

I don't understand the mod. But if i am getting the gist of it: it transfers heat on the single tile it exists. anything on it transfers heat to anything else on it?

@CTH2004 Tempshift plates transfer temperature between mediums like liquid, itself and air, or surounding tiles. However, it does not transfer the temperature between buildings or layers if there is not a liquide, gaz or solid around. The thermal interface plate will transfer temperature even in the vacuum, which can be used to transfer temperature in some nifty little contraptions that can be way more compact than vanilla or save time when setting up in the vacuum of space. lastly they open many possibilities for advanced builds that simply would not work or would use over-engineered vanilla alternative.

what's the difference between this and the Thermal Tempshift Plate

Oh man, I just bought Spaced Out and was really hoping that this mod was part of the base game now. Sadly that doesn't seem to be the case.

In gas environments will it ignore any gases and directly transfer between things? Or will it do nothing to help. I have used this mod quite a bit yet I still don't really know to be honest, I never want to test it myself but I always use it anyways with things just incase it helps.

Thanks for the quick update. This is a must have mod :)

Cant wait to see thei in the DLC =)

Will it have interractions with AETN ?

Hey does this "thermal drywall" is like a drywall but it cools things down like the interface plate??

Guys reporting problems? Read the description; he doesn't read this. Go to GitHub.


Sure, that might be anathema to you non-programmers, but SUCK IT UP.

Does not transfer heat to Temp Shift plates as it claims it does.

Works with Banhs automation update

I can't get it to interact with tempshift plates at all

@yagiou I have no idea what exactly you're talking about, the description states that the thermal interface panel is meant to share heat with neighboring tempshift panels.

Thank you for creating this mod!!! Now I'm off to pull it apart in ILSpy and see how it ticks :P

In all seriousness though, excellent mod. Have a +1 from me

Same issue here, sadly. Thermal Interface Plates and Tempshift panels don't seem to actually connect.

i tried to use this plate with tempshift plate and there is no transfer. this plate 250+C and thempshift plate 11C which is temp of cooling box where tempshift plate is connected to.

@MINISKIDI As far as i can remember, it was a design choice when they introduced the space biome. It was mainly because wanting to save some performance, they simply cut all heat exchanges in the vacuum, also, some buildings overheated very easily. But they never tested letting only the tempshift plates to be able to exchange heat in a vacuum or introducing a special type of building like this mod.

添加了热界面板，这是一种干式墙替代品，即使在完全真空的情况下，也可以在瓷砖中的建筑物之间传递热量。旨在替代火山加热器等情况下的太空和地下液滴冷却。

与Tempshift板不同，Thermal Interface Plate具有1x1的作用区域，但即使在真空中，它也可以将共享其瓷砖的其他建筑物的热量传递到相邻的Tempshift板。

之间传递热量
前景建筑物（包括但不限于自动扫地机，机器人矿机，输送机装载机，小型变压器，望远镜等）
液体管
煤气管
电源线
临时板
运输管
自动化组件和电线

之间不传递热量
重复项
小动物
碎屑
植物
输送机导轨上的物品
储物箱或储液罐中的物品，即使储物容器本身可以通过热界面板传热

@Travisplo yes.

I wonder why this is not a vanilla property of the tempshift plate. It just doesn't make sense for a robo-miner to overheat on a cold building. Thanks.

This is a game changer.
Thank you very much for it!

And the tile it itself is on, right? A 3x3 of tiles, centered on the tempshift plate.

@jF a tempshift plate affects the surrounding eight tiles.

What's the area of effect of the tempshift plate?

This belongs in the game, and I'm glad to see it's been added. THANK YOU for this. It's the perfect coupling(literally) with Tempshift plates and the like.

It's a literal Thermal Coupling. And it, is, GLORIOUS.

I enjoy this to no end. Perfect for use with another mod. One that turns too much heat into power.

How dare you remove one of the biggest frustrations from the game
