Graphite: Giving Light Oil a Use
Posted: Sun Oct 16, 2016 12:01 am
Currently, Light Oil has no use. However, I have a fix for that. Nuclear power plants are coming in 0.15, so I thought, why not think of a good mid-tier ingredient for them? Graphite is used in nuclear power plants and since I don't want to add lead to the game, this works the best for the main component. Now, here's the kicker. Graphite is created with 3 coal and 3 solid fuel per bar in a chemical plant, plus you also need research (advanced material processing -> graphite (which requires blue science). Considering light oil gives the best solid fuel ratio, I think this would be the simplest way of giving light oil a use.
