Gas/Oil power is a form of power generated by using a [[CombustionTurbine]] to burn [[Gasoline]] produced by a [[Refinery]]. It is decent for starting up a base, it is quite cheap since it mainly requieres [[iron]], [[copper]] and [[rubber]] to craft all the components and it produces enough power to power up a small base, producing power at a rate of around 65/Power Per Tick. |

For this tutorial, you will need the following: |
For this tutorial, you will need the following resources and parts: |
||
*'''''Total raw material cost: 145 iron, 11 copper, 3 rubber, 1 [[sulfur]]''''' |
|||
*[[Extractor]] set to "[[Oil]]" |
|||
*[[Filter]] set to "[[Gasoline]]" |
|||
*[[Container|Containers]] |

>2 Containers |

*[[PowerCell]] |
|||
⚫ | |||
⚫ | |||
*[[Battery]] (Optional, it is used as the startup the refinery and extractor) |

First, find a Stone deposit to place the Extractor on. Make sure there are no other extractors on the same deposit within 50 studs of yours. |

Here are the next following steps to setup gasoline power generation: |
|||
Place a container |
*Place a container in front of the [[Extractor]]. |
||
⚫ | |||
⚫ | |||
*Configure the filter's filter property to "[[Gasoline]]" |
|||
⚫ | |||
⚫ | |||
⚫ | |||
*Place a [[Wire]] connected to the [[PowerCell]], the [[Refinery]], the [[Extractor]] and the [[CombustionTurbine]], to make sure it powers everything. |
|||
⚫ | |||
If you did it right, your setup should look like the image on the right side of the page. Now, to kickstart the process, place the [[Battery]] on the [[Wire]] if needed. |

== Possible issues == |
|||
⚫ | |||
- If your [[refinery]] stops working after rejoining the game, you can try placing another [[filter]] configured to [[Petroleum|petroleum]], connect it to the [[Refinery|refinery]], then place a [[container]] connected to that filter, you can then add a [[Faucet|faucet]] to remove any excess [[petroleum]] from that container. Note that faucets will turn off when rejoining the server, so [[Transformer|transformer]] is recommended. |
|||
- Do not put a filter when connecting the [[Oil]] container to the [[refinery]], since the refinery won't be able to use the oil inside such [[container]]. |
|||
⚫ | |||
- If the problem seems to be the [[oil]] [[extractor]], try removing and placing the extractor again, since sometimes, when leaving and rejoining a planet, [[Extractor|extractors]] will part shift, causing them to no longer being attached to a stone deposit/[[mountain]], therefore causing them to not be able to mine [[Oil]]; to prevent part shifting completely, try separating your [[extractor]] systems, [[Assembler|assembly]] lines, and other systems by using [[Antenna|antennas]] and [[Transporter|transporters]] instead of [[wire]] and [[chute]] systems |
|||
⚫ | |||
- Using [[Wire|wires]], [[Chute|chutes]] and [[Pipe|pipes]] is completely fine while you don't connect everything in your base, specially every single [[extractor]], with them. |
|||
Place a Wire from the powercell along the side of the refinery and the extractor, to make sure it constantly powers itself. |
|||

If you did it right, your setup should look like the image below: |
|||
Now, to kickstart the process, place the battery on the wire. |
