Successor to the Gas Electric Turbine. The boiler is the same but the turbine system is greatly improved in an attempt to simulate the commonly used Rankine cycle within the limits of TPT. Hope you enjoy, a lot of work has gone into optimisation.

    There seems to have been a small bug regarding oil ignition (oil is not supposed to stay liquid inside the boiler). I fixed it. Oil by itself does not burn under high pressure so you need to also open Air for it to work properly (air should technically always be open, especially at the beginning so it can start up).

    so i noticed that oil sometimes just stops going up is that supposed to happen?

    I put a lot of time in these saves, including tryouts in other unpublished saves so at one point I just put together an upgrade which I deemed substantial enough to warrant a V2.0 based on an approximation of the real Rankine cycle

    Welcome to the magic of the Powder Toy :) You can disable decorations (D) to see the hidden things. Pay close attention to temperature of Portals and wifi routers. Enjoy!

    If anyone has any ideas on how to make this better: improve functionality, increase pressure or something else, please, do post a comment. Anything that doesnt take away from the realism. If anyone has an idea how to create a condenser (a part which gathers and cools the purified how vapour externally with cooler water, say from a nearby river), any help would be much appreciated.
