Had the game blackscreen in the website, so I refreshed. doing so with a heat value seems to cause everything on the board to expload as if you overheated.


IE, have a max reactor heat of 3K and a current heat around 1000, refresh and everything will be wiped.


My first blackscreen occured when I was playing with heat transfer between pipes, outlets and fan's with just a few rods and a reactor temperature over 6000 of 10500, one of my heat outlets maxed out and it just black screened within 10 seconds of seeing that (The component did not break, the bar simply filled), during which I was adding more pipes to the mix.

Bottom left of reactor had (I was adding components then it occured):

Black space = B

Heat outlet = H

Pipe = P

Fan = F

was modifying from (To experiment):

BFFF

HPPP

BFFF


To:

FFFFFF

HPHPHP

FFFFFF

Black screened again, seems related to heat transfer with heat outlets

Upon a black screen, you lose all upgrades, grid items etc, keeping only money, money in buffer, and heat value (Note the negative value, heat outlets like to make the heat negative a lot).

I was adding more load on the reactor with heat consistently transferring all of it via heat outlet's into the grid, each heat outlet had 4 fan's. the second I upgraded my bottom left most heat outlet to the third tier (with all the top ones under load at 2nd tier) and increased the tier of the fuel rods, the game black screened


Note: the order these gained heat (the outlet's) was top down, and right left. Once they all had a little bit of a bar (around 30%) and I had reached the final pump that had an empty bar, I upgraded that pump and then the fuel rods, that was when the black screen occured. Hence why I think its heat transfer related.
