Mechanics

Freezing

Aquilo is brutally cold. All entities will freeze and stop working unless heated by a heat pipe in an adjacent tile. Heat can be generated by the nuclear reactor or heating tower. Buildings also cannot be placed on the surface of the iceberg itself; concrete (or its variants) must be placed underneath as an insulator. The harshly low temperature will also make construction robots and logistic robots much weaker.

Aquilo is also far from the sun, and so solar panels only output at 1% of their rate on Nauvis, or 0.6 kW during the day.
