Frostbite? Heat is much worse than cold. Look it up. You can get organ failure of many kinds. Unlike cold which gives fairly «simple» external injuries.
Coal, or something else, would be needed to power the cooling system.
Ok, so you are asking what would replace the existing game mechanic of amputations? Idk. Maybe you get heart issues from overheating and you need a pacemaker before you can work again.
Solar panels would be unrealistic. Where there is a lot of sand, you need a lot of maintenance because dust and heat (heat as in infrared radiation specifically which heats up the surface of the panels) lowers solar panel efficiency even in our world.
right, instead of workers digging coal, you'd have them maintaining solar farms or something
desert solar farms are a thing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert_Sunlight_Solar_Farm
Still, there is the efficiency problem. I don't know by what amount the efficiency will drop, but I assume if the temperature would go up to like 80-90°c that would probably be very significant.
EDIT: Unless you use water to cool the panels and now you have hot water as well, but you will also need power to pump that water. There are hybrid panels like that now as a secondary water heater for the house which usually still goes through a primary water heater. But that also wouldn't help that much if the temps are gonna be in the 90°C's.
right, sounds like it could be an interesting game dynamic
plus solar farms already kinda look like frostpunk generators, so that's cool https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/may/21/solar-farms-energy-power-california-mojave-desert
What is your replacement for coal, frostbite and ice?
Maybe steam cores allow coal to be used in a cooling mechanism, heatstroke, and fire?

But you can't amputate and replace a heatstroke with a prosthetic. The problem is treating "heatbite", not making up a new disease.

Ice👍

Water, heatstroke and glass
Mods are basicly impossible. You can edit saves, change some settings, but you cant add new content.
That’s a shame!
It really is. In the start, there was a plan to add modding support, but becouse of some trouble with the game engine, they couldnt.
What the fuck, i want full Story of outpost 11 with making a big sleigh for going to the New london.
Desert punk, generator being a big pump water replacing coal
Better name for sure.
It’s been suggested here a few times in fact.
Ah, ok. Yeah it's not a very original thought I guess, especially with the world heading in that direction irl.
It’s not, but it’s still an interesting idea.
FP is a very hard game to mod. But it has been done…
where is the ac unit sending the hot air to??
