The ChemiSeparator

Marquesas Wrote:While this is rather convenient and all, I would vouch against it, precisely due to CheMaster's 'isolate' feature. Life isn't fair, chemistry is powerful and you only have yourself to blame if you need to get rid of one of two very powerful stuff.

Also, I'd like to see you centrifuge something like nitroglycerine or NI3. If we're working with IRL analogues, centrifuging has a set of requirements, it's not a one shot solve-it-all.

on the CheMaster Isolate, it has a nice balance in that you only get one reagent from the source, but the function is instant. with an rpm-controlled centrifuge, it would take 50 seconds by default to filter a whole 50 unit beaker. that is a long time if there's a traitor/wizard lurking around. the fastest separation without emagging would be a beaker in 12.5 seconds at 14000 rpm, but at that speed you're most likely going to destroy/explode/spill any reagent in the beaker.

in magic space land there's a few objects that don't work exactly like their real world analogues, like being able to isolate jenkem from a container of LSD, crank, mercury, and saltpetre. i brainstormed actually having the beaker separate into layers then extracting each layer individually to containers, but that felt more complex than it should be. same thing with weight instability, a real issue with centrifugues. instead of needing to keep the exact amount of reagent in each container, it is substituted with general instability at high RPM.

as far as centrifuging nitro and other unstables, they may explode at default/any speed. experiment with what explodes when, thats science!

disclaimer: i started on this after playing botanist and growing weed but being disappointed that i couldnt separate the THC and LSD, resulting in wasted drugs from isolating. sometimes the use isn't malicious, it's just a dude wanting to get high as balls.
