Soo, the Ultimate Heat outlet is cooling reactor, and trasfering heat to what?? cause i found out that i can just put outlets and cool everything i want without any adjacent components, so, this is how they ought to work? i don't think so :P
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
actually ignore when i said there is work around. If you get enough max level plating you can make the vents cool over 5.12m and just put them right next to outlets which eliminates heat exchangers from being needed

The instantaneously destruction of everything makes it very hard to plan new designs. I place a bunch of stuff, press play, *boom*, lost everything including capacitors and plates.
I would much prefer that I just stopped getting any power for a while or some warning before everything explodes. I don't even know why everything is exploding, it happens so fast.

The update made heat exchanger and platings obsolete. I have 3/4 of the board filled with a chessboard-arrangement of reactors and reflectors and the bottom with Vent5-Outlet4-Vent5 blocks, running at 9M heat/tick. Soon i will replace all vents by a couple of throwaway coolant cells and will have even more room for reactors and almost no limit on heat production

outlets are broken, they cant store heat, but they receive it from other outlets anyway, so you build 5x5 grid of tier 3 outlets and it sends more than 1M of heat from reactor right into blackhole

The biggest problem now that I can see is that heat vents can very easily get rid of more heat than they can store. Therefore Heat exchangers will not output the full amount of heat to each vent but if they did the vent would explode due to it';s low capacity. If the plating increased the capacity size than this problem would be fixed. The exchangers would be able to give more heat to the vents than they can get rid of and they won't explode. Currently the solution to this problem is too.... Wait there isn't a good work around.

http://imgur.com/9rWdEhN - just under 20B per tick idle abusing heat outlet glitch. I think it's actually losing heat *ever so slowly*, but waiting several minutes I didn't see the heat drop by .001B so I figure it's basically stable. I couldn't find a way to *legitimately* use the new heat outlets for more power than I could manage ignoring them though.

I find it funny, all these reactors exploded with the update, yet mine survived because I said to myself heat in reactor? NOPE.

From now on can you just pause the game when it's updated? Show a big "game was updated" splash screen or something. I just got a meltdown right now.

dear developer, I really appreciate your effort in making the game better and updating it, but PLEASE, PLEASE give us the chance to at least sell our components before your update just makes everything explode.

having fun with the outlet bug and i noticed that double dolorium cells make more heat then quad dolorium cells when both are surrounded by 4 quad uranium cells that cant be intended

Idea (you probably have a surplus of these): Completely separate games. A button in the top right that has [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] and each is the same exact game/layout but are separate but they can all run at the same time. (For example I can use 2 to experiment on which piping systems I can use and stuff)

nicedia: You said that the "heat exchanger is useless" because the "outlet is too aggressive"... well, you're sort of right, but if you have enough exchangers around the outlet and vents it won't blow up.

I just wanted to say thanks. I don't understand how this game doesn't have a community (does it?) because each update makes the game so much more enjoyable. The concept of the game itself is fun, and now each update is just making it more addictive. Thanks for working so hard on your game!

I managed to stack a whooping 137 double nefastium + 3 quad reflector
but I can't attain equilibrium on heat so I can't make use of fission.
Managed a +12k/-12k heat per tick, but no 0
also obviously outlet are bugged

...I realize that I'm not the first voice on this, but as soon as I started the new build (typos fixed in capacitors/plating) my reactor vaporized from latent heat allowed for the fission bonus. Since the game is already set up to deplete cells upon update, maybe you could also pause the game automatically when an update is applied? It wouldn't cause any problems with offline mode, since we currently don't have one, and would prevent unforeseeable meltdowns like this.

Well sh*t, so I just refresh the page because I heard there was a new update and all of a sudden my multi trillion dollar factory producing over a billion power per tick completely exploded before my eyes! This pissed me off a bit...could you maybe make it so the game automatically starts paused when refreshing it? So that when such a major update happens again it doesn't cause my whole factory to go off like Fukushima.

fission upgrade is useless. because we have outlet and we can no more control heat. heat exchanger is useless. outlet is too much aggressive. always they destroy heat exchangers. inlet is useless. we can not control inlet and outlet.

Needs better tutorials. Too much of it is guess work and while the game is a neat concept, I have a short attention span. If I have to restart every time I try something new, Im not going to stick around.

Hit refresh and INSTANTLY melted down. If you're going to push an update that messed with heat in a negative way, at LEAST make it so that the game starts paused so we can deal with it.
I already have the game sell all of your cells (For a full refund) when you update to a new version. But you're right, now that there's a 'paused' mode, that should be used as well.

It would be nice if the reactor stopped itself when you reload the page, because obviously everyone's reactor exploded instantly...

daaaaaAAAAAMMMIT! I had my reactor sitting just slightly cooler than mordor, then the update tweaked the plating effectiveness.
Next update, ya, emptying cells is fine, but please empty the heat too, so we don't lose our 1.5 b/t dolorium builds?

With the new update (1/30/15), my entire reactor design detonated as it spontaneously overheated now that the heat exchangers no longer interact with the reactor. That was millions of dollars of design, all wasted.
Perhaps, in the future, you could implement some kind of delay between accessing the game file (for the first time since a new update) and implementing a major change that could result in catastrophe for a ton of people?
Or warn us of a potentially disastrous alteration beforehand?

After i read, that the heat outlets heat anything, i decided to improve my full idle quad nefastium cell reactor: 8 of the Quad nefastium cells in a group passively cooled. The 8 quad dolorium cells are there to balance the heat. http://i.imgur.com/gkTVcN9.jpg

BUG: the new heat outlets take heat out of the reactor without caring whats next to them. so if you build an indestructible tile without heat capacity next to them(e.g. themselves, platings, cells), they will magically make the heat disappear.
Under rating threshold (hideshow)
oh, and since you changed the balancer, you'd better change the help texts as well. Also in that screen hovering of reactor still works.
