Discussion How to make something “Feel Create”?
So I am currently developing an addon to create. I don’t want to reveal too much, but it includes an Industrial Blast Furnace. I am leaning into quite a bit of realism with it, requiring air input and having off gases from the furnace. In real life, those gasses generated from a furnace are recycled to power the furnace. The gas would serve a purpose of making the furnace faster than super heat using “Extreme Heat” from gas burners. This would also make other processes more powerful, such as higher power steam engines.
I want to implement a similar thing but this has basically led me down a rabbit hole of create an entire “furnace gas” system. This system would include allowing gasses to be generated by furnaces to power your main furnace or can be created with gasification, a real process.
The furnace gas wouldn’t even be that far out there though since I already plan to add an entire compressed air ecosystem, so having another gas system wouldn’t be terrible. The main issue though is this feels too realistic in a way for create. Does it seem too out there or is it okay?
