Rock drake egg still too hot in a room full of air conditioners?

[ortund]

I'm in the desert which might be the problem but I mean this *IS* Scorched Earth so that shouldn't really make it impossible...

What am I missing? I've build the air conditioners in a square around the egg but nothing seems to change...

Wanna see something funny?

its -63°C cold and it still says it's too hot.
Typical Studio Wildcard game logic.

How many airconditioners exactly and how closely are their area effects overlapping? Each unit has a small radius that gets the best temp balances and as you go farther from a unit it's radius of temp control lessens. Thus in some cases you have to stack units not just around but also above and below so that the spherical radi can have the best overlapping in the highest concentration.

Also make sure the building has the house icon so that temp/insulations work better too.

If all that still isnt acceptable and you're playing in single player or on a server that can use mods, just use a mod with an incubator in it: S+(but it stops incubation at 1% intentionally), Automated Ark, CKF( I like theirs as it requires no power and is relatively easy to make), and many others.

On Aberration I was able to pull it off with around 15 AC units in a 2x2x2 full metal building. AC units placed as close as possible.
The area was a constant 28°C (the overlook)

Nooblet or some such channel on YouTube did a video about incubating them which I kinda copied a bit while at my wits end.

So I used 12 air conditioners place 4x4 with a 2x2 square in the middle of them where I’d put the egg.

Additionally I built this into a square room 2 walls wide, 2 walls long with a door. All stone. This dropped the egg to 3° which it said was still too hot

4x5 aircon patch, placed as close as possible to each other almost making it one solid aircon, perfectly make hatching temp even outside building.
