Chemfuel is a resource used to craft explosive weapons and ammunition as well as fuel the chemfuel powered generators and pod launchers. In spite of the description, it is in no way necessary for neither the construction nor fueling of your ship. If chemfuel catches fire, it will spark briefly before exploding into flames. The higher the quantity of chemfuel in the stack, the larger the explosion. With a little creativity, careful placement of chemfuel stockpiles can be used as components in base defense.
Damage to its HP does not affect its market value.
Acquisition
- Chemfuel can be crafted by processing wood or organic material at a refinery. (This works much how beer is made; add the material to the refinery, wait, chemfuel comes out.)
- You can "milk" it from tamed boomalopes
- Obtain it from powered Infinite chemreactors.
Summary
Mostly used in crafting, however when damaged beyond 1/3rd of its health, it will spark and emit a hissing sound and will explode after between 70 ticks (1.17 secs) and 150 ticks (2.5 secs), dealing 10 Flame damage in a radius around itself. The radius depends on the quantity in the stack, with a single unit of chemfuel covering a 1.1 tile radius, and expanding this radius proportional to the square root of the stack size times 0.037 up to a maximum radius of 3.45 tiles at a full stack of 150. This explosion leaves Chemfuel puddles which will then ignite and burn.
Storage
Due to its volatile nature, it should be stored safely away from flammables and electric circuits, in small compartments which contain small stock so an explosion won't destroy your entire stock. This should not be stored with mortar shells. Be careful, as a pawn may decide to let out their stress by beating up a chemfuel container until it explodes.
Usage
Chemfuel is used to refuel the following:
It is also an ingredient in the following crafting recipes:

Version history
In earlier versions, Chemfuel could be acquired by using a Deep drill. This was removed in Beta 19.
