Internal Name thermosynthase

Extracts energy in the form of ATP atp using Temperature temperature gradients in the environment. Prokaryotic form of the more efficient Thermoplast.

Speculative organelle not found in real life. Unavilable in games with LAWK (Life As We Know it) turned on.

Requirements

Thermosynthase only appears in games with LAWK turned off in game settings.

If organelle unlocks are enabled in game settings, the following condition must be true for the player cell:

  • Is in a patch with at least +50 °C Temperature temperature.

Processes

Bacterial Thermosynthesis: Temperature temperatureATP atp

Generates energy passively from ambient environmental Temperature temperature. Less efficient form of Thermosynthesis present in Thermoplasts.

Modifications

No modifications.

Effects

No effects.

Upgrades

No upgrades.

Strategy

In its current form, Thermosynthase is essentially free energy. It has no real downside, providing you're content to remain in hot patches. Bacterial Thermosynthesis breaks even in patches with roughly +23 °C Temperature temperature and is considerably more powerful in volcanic vents, which have +98 °C Temperature temperature.

More efficient still is the Thermoplast, available once a cell evolves a Nucleus. Like all prokaryotic organelles with eukaryotic counterparts, we recommend replacing Thermosynthase with Thermoplasts when possible.
