Pipes are used to transport gas. Pipes are one of the possible types of inputs/outputs from a structure (the others being Cables, Chutes, and Kit (Liquid Pipe)).

Tips

  • Pipes can store some gas inside of them, which can be used with small airlocks to store gas when depressurizing
  • Pipes will burst if the pressure differential between the inside pressure and outside atmosphere is greater than 60,795KPa (60MPa) (plus a random check to allow for short bursts over this limit)
  • Pipes will be stressed (make a noise) when the pressure difference between inside and outside the pipe is greater than 48,636kPa.
  • A contiguous pipe (not interrupted by valves, regulators, pumps etc.) of any length, will always have the same pressure, temperature and mixture over its entire length. No matter at what point of the pipe you're introducing new gases into the pipe, they will instantly and evenly "average out" over the entire pipe.

Variations

Can be painted individually or by the stack with Spray Can. (consumes a single 'use' of the can either way, far more efficient to paint a full stack)

Insulated

Insulated pipes greatly reduce the exchange of heat between the pipe and it's surrounding environment
