Air Conditioner won't turn on. It just stays on low power.
Title. I have walls, door, power, roof, blue is pointed in, wires hooked up. The thing is hooked up right, it just won't kick on above lower power usage for some reason. It's not cooling the room at all.

If it's on low power, that means the blue side is at or below the set temp.
Or, the red side is too hot/small for the exaust to go into.

It is 88F inside, and 88F outside. It is set to 30F

Ah, I'm pretty sure that room is too big for a single cooler.
Try adding a second one.

<edit>
You could also try adding a second layer to the outside wall to add insulation.

A16 or 17?

Try deconstructing the door then rebuilding it. There's been a known bug if it's a17 with coolers being placed after the room is built

Or save and reload

That was going to be my question as well. Looks like you have the bug that won't seem to stay away from A17.

Try this: deconstruct one wall section then rebuild it and see if the AC turns to high power.

Oh they must have changed the rules on size a lot. Like it won't even cool the room at all? Wouldn't it still pop onto high power to be tryign to cool it?

Lol, see Matt beat me to the punch! Try his for idea first, then try a wall section if that doesn't work.

Keep a copy of the save as well and post it on the bug sub forum at the ludeon site. This one keeps messing with them.

Well, 3rd reload was the charm I guess. I've reloaded it a few times. It was randomly working this time, lol. Thanks all.

The OP's issue was the unit wasn't even turning on the cooling function. There is a bug in the unstable A17 that makes rooms think they really aren't rooms.

You can also sometimes fix this by hitting reconnect (even though it is connected)
