You are asking how many to use, but that's just one variable. FYI, same principle applies to cooling with aquatuner, find the highest SHC liquid and use that, keeping in mind freezing temps. Using that data, you want to have them cool the gas with the highest SHC, which is hydrogen. Wheezeworts work by sucking 1k gas every second and outputting it 5c cooler. 3 of these stacked in a place dupes have constant access w/o lead suits WILL give them radiation poisoning.Īs far as using them to cool oxygen, for their best efficient you want to have them in hydrogen. The more recent change in spaced out is that it gives off radiation, a significant amount too. Back then this change signaled the end of oni/nobody would playiy anymore/blah blah. Nowadays you have to keep fertilizing it once a cycle or it stops working. So the big nerf to wheezeworts was to require phosphorite as fertilizer, back a few years it was a decor plant, so you could set it and forget it in a sealed room. It can be used to make fertilizer, feed shine bugs, and make some medicine - that said, none of these uses use it in large quantities, so if you ranch dreckos at all (I recommend it - it's a lot easier to get plastic up and running through dreckos), odds are high you have a mountain of it sitting unused. Phosphorite isn't actually used for anything all that important, though. Reed fiber uses obscene amounts of p water, and plastic uses petroleum and produces a ton of heat. They can also be sheered for reed fiber and plastic, which can be otherwise expensive to produce. Like most critters, they drop meat when they die. That said, there's many reasons to ranch dreckos. A single drecko produces enough phosphorite to permanently fertilize 2.5 wheezeworts. It now uses phosphorite, which means you need dreckos to maintain a steady supply. The "nerf to oblivion" given to it is that now requires fertilizer, which means it's harder to use it before you have conveyors. They produce radiation in spaced out, and are generally considered very worth using because of it.
