no, you got it exactly right, Chlorine is probably the worst element to use for this. I made this mod as an experiment when I was not even playing the game. Once I posted it online and actually got to the point where I could place the building, I absolutely hated it and immediately started working on a version that uses water and super-coolant, which I like way more, but I haven't posted it because there are some quirks I want to resolve first.

I wanted to make this mod because I've been itching to, for years. I'm obsessed about the refrigeration cycle. I didn't look into the HVAC mod in detail, but I like their graphics.

Mh, it's a neat mod.
Whilst I like it, what could make this better than the expanded HVAC one?

I mean that the other mod permits to dump heat in liquid AND gases (ANY liquid and ANY gase), whereas this mod is limited to Chlorine only and, if I understand, you have to use radiant pipes to hot (or cold) zones in order to cool/heat them. Plus, you'll have evaporator and condenser buildings.
Now, given that Chlorine has such a low Specific Heat Capacity and Thermal Conductivity, in addition to being only 1kg per packet inside the pipe, wouldn't use it as a first choice coolant gas. Neither as a second choice, perhaps; or even not as third choice too, maybe.

Am I wrong in my assumption and/or I failed to understand how this mod works?

Thanks guys for reporting that. I don't think it's related to the "flip everything" mod. But if it happens again, please let me know.

hi, just uploaded the fix for not being able to place it.

Great mod idea. Getting a similar issue as Shrglwyddes, as I'm also unable to build the Chlorine Compressor either. I do not have the Rotate Everything mod, but I do have an extensive mod list, so I disabled everything except this mod and was still unable to build the Compressor, in a fresh world or in sandbox mode.

I haven’t had that rotate building mod break a building in years, so I think it’s the best implementation of building flipping. I look forward to your next update
Murden  [author] 31 Jul @ 2:36pm 
Shrglwyddes, I will install that mod and see if I the same happens to me.

Operator, sure I will do that.

Could you please upload pictures of the building and maybe of the output screens as well?

I am also using a flip everything mod, but no matter which way the building was flipped, i couldnt get it to build. https://gtm.steamproxy.vip/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2555723006

🤔 thanks for letting me know, I will try to reproduce this in my game.

In my test map I couldn't build the Chlorine Compressor because "automation ports cannot overlap"
