Stationeers One-Tick Advanced Furnace! (2023) Walkthrough and Build Guide

With development starting almost 2 years ago, I am proud to finally unveil my Advanced Furnace system for the game Stationeers that can smelt anything in a single game tick!

It features a simple interface that allows you to select which ingot/alloy you wish to make, along with the quantity that you would like to make. Then all you do is push the button, and it takes care of the rest! It automatically requests the correct amount of ore, melts it within the furnace, and then injects a highly precise amount of gas from hot and cold gas supplies to reach the exact temperature and pressure needed to form the requested alloy. It performs this gas injection all in one shot, within the span of a single game tick, with a very high degree of precision. This gets around the thermal losses from convection/radiation introduced in the recent Thermodynamics update, and avoids the associated heat loss issues that now plague older furnace designs.

You can build this furnace yourself! All the IC codes used in the video are on my steam profile (Nominal_). Here are direct links:

Additionally, here are the maths that I put together to make this whole thing work: https://i.imgur.com/HutZL2B.jpg

In the video I promised to include a world download as well, which I still intend to do. However it seems there is a problem with publishing worlds to the Steam workshop at the moment, so I won't be able to provide a world download until that gets fixed or I find a workaround. For now you'll just have to watch the video!
