Modular Power Heaters
Building Information:
Heaters are used to burn fuel to make heat. Currently there are 4 variants: Biomass, Coal, Solution & Nuclear.
Once the heater reaches 100℃ the attached Boiler will then start producing Steam, the temperature will reach 1050℃ for the nuclear heater. 750c for the solution heater and 500℃ for the rest.
The heater will produce CO₂, which will need to be handled by either venting through a chimney or accumulating into Carbon Dust. If the Co2 is not resolved and fills the heater, it will stop producing heat and slowly cool.
