Fire/explosions?

[ack-ack]

Been thinking about buying this game - really impressed by the gas and thermal simulation, but is it possible for the gas to explode or catch fire? If it's not in the game yet are there any plans to add a fire simulation in the future?

It's not in the game yet, but the simulation wouldn't be complete without a nice hydrogen explosion, right?

oh god - there's hydrogen and chlorine ....

[Shadow Creator]

Oh wait... Chlorine...

Talking about a mess. Add some heat and air flow

Things were going really bad with Hydrogen everywhere in my game. I kept looking for a way to set it off and end it mercifully quickly for the poor duplicants.

Pump that hydrogen into hydrogen generators if its becoming a problem. Only chlorine is a real problem as it cannot be used for anything right now.

Still waiting on chlorine having a use.

If it could be compressed/froze or mixed with clay into bleach stone that would be cool

Chlorine has a use but it is super dangerous. U can use it to slow down heat since it has a low thermo conductivity. U can also use it to heat the tepidizer pass it's heat range.

Yes, I would love to see fire!

It's probably hard to design a mechanic that would make sense, act somewhat realistic and at the same time don't a complete pain in the ass

This late in the game? And by "game" I mean "development"? I think it would be a bad idea for the devs to try to add another major mechanic a month before launch. It'd be a cool feature though.
