Adds a picture of the current waste room and updates the information on gas coolers, filters, and pumps.

	While this whole shebang doesn't impact SM performance ''too much'', it's a good idea to set it up anyway, otherwise TEG performance might be negatively impacted, or worse. The filters up north are what will keep the coolant gas in the loop and the byproducts/gases you don't want out, pushing them towards the room to the north, assuming you set them up right. The picture to the right is what a filter's UI looks like in configuration mode. Pressing "configure" will bring that screen up, allowing you to tweak the settings of the filter. The button that says "nitrogen" is what you'll want to change assuming you're not using nitrogen as coolant. You should do this to both of the filters, then turn them both back on. The animated sprite on this subheading is what an operational filter may look like. Incorrectly setting these filters will most likely result in the SM chamber slowly depressurizing until there is no gas left, or the gas leftover is so miniscule that it heats up to dangerous values instantly.

	The room beyond these filters has a black pipe network known as the waste line ~~with two~~ pumps~~, a connector,~~ and ~~three~~ gas coolers. As it turns out, siphoning gas from the ~~blazing hot almost-~~inferno of an engine chamber gives you '''very hot gas''', which has expanded considerably~~, making~~ most atmospheric devices function slowly, particularly the devices in Atmospherics, assuming the ~~waste gases are allowed there via the~~ pump ~~connected to the scrubber line~~. Thus it's a good idea to cool the gas down with the gas coolers. The simple way to set this up is to turn on ~~and max~~ both ~~pumps~~ and turn on ~~all three gas coolers. Alternatively you can plug in an empty canister into~~ the ~~connector instead of pumping~~ the ~~gases into~~ the ~~scrubber line~~, ~~but there's no real reason~~ to ~~unless you just want~~ to ~~expand~~ the ~~volume of the waste network~~.		While this area and machinery doesn't impact SM performance ''too much'', it's a good idea to set it up anyway, otherwise TEG performance might be negatively impacted, or worse. The filters up north are what will keep the coolant gas in the loop and the byproducts/gases you don't want out, pushing them towards the room to the north. By default, the filters are set to allow '''hydrogen''' through, so you don't need to change them at all unless you're doing a very strange setup. Incorrectly setting these filters will most likely result in the SM chamber slowly depressurizing until there is no gas left, or the gas leftover is so minuscule that it heats up to dangerous values instantly.

			The room beyond these filters has a black pipe network known as the waste line. Inside are three pumps and two gas coolers. As it turns out, siphoning gas from the inferno of an engine chamber gives you '''very hot gas''' which has expanded considerably. This makes most atmospheric devices function slowly, particularly the devices in Atmospherics, assuming you turn on the Reactor to Mix pump.

			Thus, it's a good idea to cool the gas down with the gas coolers. The simple way to set this up is to turn on both gas coolers to their default setting (which is room temperature, 20 Celsius), and maximize the Reactor to Mix pump. '''Don't turn on the Filter Bypass Pump or the Reactor to Scrubbers pump.''' The former will cause gas to filter from the Supermatter, which will cause it to delaminate, and the latter will send extremely hot gas to the scrubber pipeline, slowing it down.

	Because of how the filters are setup, using two different gases in the hot loop isn't possible without modifications. Why you would bother using more than one gas in the hot loop is a mystery, but it is worth mentioning.

	There are two SMES units that are immediately relevant to the engine: the '''engine SMES''' and the '''main distribution SMES'''. The former is what receives power from the TEGs and powers the engine room APC directly as well as the emitter. If the output is not high enough, the emitter may not fire, or the APC may not have enough power to allow the pumps to operate. The other SMES also receives power from the TEGs, but it outputs to the rest of the station. It should have its input maximized, since every kilowatt not used is another kilowatt wasted. The output can be adjusted as needed, of course, but one should take into account how populated the departments are and how much power the station will need in general.
