The pump will work if the output pipenet is below 9000 kPa, even if the resulting pressure of this action would be way higher than 9000 kPa. However, this limit only kicks in when the output pipenet is currently over 9000 kPa. The volume pump is similar to the pressure pump, but operates differently. Because of this, pressure pumps slow down when approaching their target pressure, and will not quite match their pressure after a very long time, but will get very close. Pressure pumps work by gradually building up to its set pressure per tick.
Any pump can not pump gas that is not actually in it, which means that very large connected pipenets will have lower pump speeds. All pumps work by pumping the contents within them to the other side, which is 200L on one side, and 200L on the other. Like all pumps, it separates connected pipenets if there is nothing else connecting them.

This can be operated by both carbon mobs such as humans, excluding xenomorphs, and silicons.Īn activatable valve that lets gas pass through if the pressure on the input side is higher than the set pressure.Īcts identically to a Digital Valve, however, the manual valve does not allow silicons to operate it.Īn oddball case. Has 200L of volume on one side, and 200L on the other end. Counter to pumps, it experiences no delay in its gas transfer. Digital ValveĪ valve that opens when clicked, and connects the two pipenets it separates when doing so. The first instance of a device running into a unique mechanic will be explained in further length. Some details will be missed, but it will provide a basis. This will be a section detailing the overall function, and some specifics, of the various pipes, pumps, and other devices. However, an Omni pipe would work fine, as well as any device set to omni like a pump or valve. If you need to connect two differing colors of pipes, a color adapter can be used in place of a regular pipe. Pressing the circle button in the center will reset the restrictions to the default auto-connect. This is incredibly handy when working in tight spaces where there's no other way to avoid having two matching colored pipes pass each other. These can be toggled off to restrict automatic pipe connections in a direction for the pipes you place. In the Rapid Pipe Dispenser (RPD) interface, you'll notice a few green arrow buttons on the left. All pipes and pipe devices can be assigned colors, and even larger atmospherics machines also can have their color adjusted.
This feature is commonly referred to as "Smart Pipes". This is critical to keep in mind, as careless placement of pipes can result in accidental connections between previously separate pipenets. The Omni pipes (grey colored) connect with ALL colors on the same layer. Normal pipes will automatically connect with adjacent pipes of the same color and layer. These days, pipes no longer have a set direction they connect in. You might be able to synthesize difficult gases, but derelict this basic duty and you are not a good atmospheric technician. You, dearest atmospheric technician, have one main purpose: Keeping the station not too hot, not too cold, pressurized, and breathable. 3.2 LINDA: Active Turfs and Excited GroupsĪtmospherics 101: Basic Theory, Layout, and Custodian of The Air.3 Atmospherics 301: Pipeline and Pipenet Theory LINDA: Active Turfs & Excited Groups Superconduction.
