Jm211: i will considor some of those changes
(how do i delete comments)
(i think i broke a rule somewhere)
(It's a comic by the way) (wait does this count as advertising) (no i dont think so)
you should do https://xkcd.com/2982/
(The simple way is to just 2sltw=1sltw+1watr+0.25salt, 0.25 salt+ 1sltw=1.25sltw, 1watr+1sltw=2sltw. Thus, 2sltw=2.25sltw.)
instead of running the smke directly through plants, turn it to co2 first using ptnm, and either run that through plants, or fuse it into oxyg. Then, combine them using ptnm, as it is 100% efficient unlike combustion.
Oxyg, you could get by fusing hygn, or even get the co2 by fusing it so you can keep the plnt step. OR you could use plnt(tmp=1) next to wood to get infinite plnt, then either burn that for smke, or irradiate it with neut to get wood, then heat that up and apply negative pressure to get bcol, which gives you more smke per plant. If this feels too cheaty, you can use some of the watr to grow plnt.
There is a much more complicated method (and there is also a simpler method) both of which dont use any clones, or conv, cray, dray, etc. First, instead of prot, you can get infinite photons by using a glow reactor, and apply a bizr filter and an invs filter to make elec and neut. Thats infinite hydrogen sorted.
