Structure Thermodynamics

Structure Thermodynamics WARNING: This is a StationeersLaunchPad Plugin Mod. It requires Bepinex to be installed with the StationeersLaunchPad plugin. See: https://github.com/StationeersLaunchPad/StationeersLaunchPad If you have StationeersMods installed, please remove it and use StationeersLaunchPad instead. 👨‍🚀 "Oh the weather outside is frightful, But the fire is so delightful... ☕" ⚠️" Warning: Suit temperature critical!" Maybe building a base on a planet with a surface temperature of 700 degrees was a bad idea Mod description: Enables thermal transfer via convection, conduction, and radiation between your rooms and the outside atmosphere. This will now force you to either consider insulating your base, or building structural radiators to get rid of heat. Config settings available for you to increase or decrease thermal effects due to this mod. Warning!: this mod is in beta, and may not be balanced for gameplay you may be used to. Material thermal properties: Iron - Terrible insulator, and a great heat conductor. Building a base from iron walls and frames will do very little to protect you from the outside weather Steel - Also a bad insulator, and great heat conductor. Has high reflectivity, so will reduce radiation heat loss Glass - Decent insulator, but low reflectivity and will radiate heat. Composite - Decent insulator, but will also radiate heat quickly if placed as the outside facing surface Padded Walls - Very good insulator and will radiate heat if placed outside. Tips: - If you want to insulate your base from the outside, use insulating walls inside your room, and place reflective material (i.e. steel or iron) on the outside. This will impede both conduction and radiation - You can also create a vacuum layer between your room the outside, as this will greatly reduce heat loss from your room. You will still radiate heat, so make sure you use steel to line the outside walls. - If you want to cool off your room, build low insulating walls (iron). If the
