Why are the turbines getting hot?
It's a critical error for my reactor designs, but i've noticed that when my turbines get hot, they power themselves and get hotter and hotter until the fuel explodes. If i delete everything but the turbine, it still gets hotter, Even with ambient heat off. If i use a freeze ray to absolute 0, its fine, but if it gets hot it just grows by itself exponentially. It doesnt occur in 1 reactor design that i've used, but i can't copy the turbine and then use it cuz it has the same issue. Restarting doesn't work. I cant use a cooling tower cuz im trying to put it on a boat, and i dont want to cheat with a freeze ray. It only starts to heat up once the turbine is active and making the electricity particles.

HOW CAN I PREVENT THIS? AND WHERE IS THE HEAT COMING FROM?
please help

Turbines are suppost to get warm. Cool down the fuel rods.

the turbine gets hotter and hotter even with nothing attached to it though it's weird. It turns heat into power which makes more heat to power itself with and i feel like that shouldn't happen

Should be fixed now hopefully
idk if I didn't get the update that fixed it but I think the issue is that as the electricity increases the game increases the heat of that object to simulate electrical resistance and for whatever reason this just gets bugged and goes up crazy fast on the turbine because when it stops generating electricity the bug stops so maybe just disable the whole electrical resistance thing (if possible)

Edit: thought it would also be important to mention that I'm also experiencing the bug with the cooling loop based turbines but dealing with it is just a matter of having an always active freeze ray which doesn't affect the performance of the reactor at all so it isn't much of an issue
