[0.16.36] [Bob+Angel] Cost of petrochemical oil tank is off
Posted: Sun Jun 10, 2018 6:20 am
Small inline tank: capacity 20k, materials: 5 stone brick, 6 iron pipe, 3 steel plate
Petrochem oil tank: capacity 80k, materials: 40 stone brick, 39 iron pipe, 12 steel plate
Petrochem gas tank: capacity 125k, materials: 20 stone brick, 30 iron pipe, 6 steel plate
Pressure tank: capacity 350k, materials: 20 stone brick, 50 iron pipe, 20 steel plate
Obviously, the cost of petrochemical oil tank is way off - it is almost twice as expensive than the gas tank, almost as expensive as the pressure tank (in particular, it needs more bricks), but it has a lower capacity.
I would suggest adjusting the costs as below:
Small inline tank: 5 stone brick, 6 iron pipe, 3 steel plate
Petrochem oil tank: 12 stone brick, 20 iron pipe, 8 steel plate
Petrochem gas tank: 20 stone brick, 30 iron pipe, 12 steel plate
Pressure tank: 30 stone brick, 40 iron pipe, 20 steel plate
(Initially, I gave the cost of oil tank as 10 brick, 15 pipe and 6 steel, but then I noted that it was exactly half the cost of the gas tank, but hat it had more than half capacity - it would have been advantageous to build two oil tanks instead of a single gas tank. So I increased the cost a bit; an alternate solution would be to increase the capacity of the higher tier tanks.)
