In [[Space Age]]{{SA}}, the prohibition on using burner devices on [[space platform]]s{{SA}} only applies to devices that use combustion-based fuels, as there is no oxygen in space. While the [[biochamber]]{{SA}} is a burner device, it burns [[nutrients]]{{SA}} rather than using direct combustion, so they may be placed on space platforms.

	Devices which happen to be using a fuel item as an ingredient in a crafting recipe are not considered burner devices. For example, a [[chemical plant]] making [[plastic bar]]s consumes [[coal]], but chemical plants do not count as burner device.

	'''Burner devices''' are devices that consume [[Fuel#Burnable fuel\|burnable fuels]] to operate instead of relying on ~~Electricity~~. ~~Some devices~~ consume other types of fuels~~, and these devices~~ are not considered "burner devices".		'''Burner devices''' are devices that consume [[Fuel#Burnable fuel\|burnable fuels]] to operate instead of relying on electricity. Devices that consume other types of fuels (e.g. [[uranium fuel cell]]s) are not considered "burner devices". Fuel slots can be filtered in the same way as a player inventory slot ({{Keybinding\|mmb}} by default) to restrict the device to one specific type and quality of fuel per slot.

	~~Most burner~~ devices are used early in the game before an [[electric system]] has been constructed~~. Early power generation systems tend to be reliant on burner devices~~, ~~but later-game~~ power ~~generators use different energy sources~~. Burner devices can also be used later in the game in remote locations where electrical power would be difficult to set up. ~~Most~~ [[~~vehicle~~]]~~s are burner devices~~.		Burner devices are commonly used early in the game before an [[electric system]] has been constructed, and as a source of electricity before more advanced methods of [[power production]] have been researched. Burner devices can also be used later in the game in remote locations where electrical power would be difficult to set up. Burner devices tend to be significant sources of [[pollution]].

	~~Burner devices tend to be significant sources of~~ [[~~pollution~~]].		All [[vehicle]]s except the [[spidertron]] are burner devices.

	In [[Space Age]], burner ~~devices cannot~~ be placed on [[space platform]]s.		In {{SA}}[[Space Age]], the {{SA}}[[biochamber]] is considered a burner device, and it is the only such device that can be placed on [[space platform]]s.

			Devices which happen to be using a fuel item as an ingredient in a crafting recipe are not considered burner devices. For example, a [[chemical plant]] making [[plastic bar]]s consumes [[coal]], but chemical plants do not count as burner device.

	Fuel items can also be ingredients in crafting recipes. Devices which happen to be using such a recipe are not considered burner devices. For example, a [[chemical plant]] making [[plastic bar]]s consumes [[coal]], but chemical plants do not count as burner device.
