Hmm. The only thing I can think of is what are the current limits on your other resistors? It looks like something is using up 30 Amps somewhere up the line... Really odd.

Ah, good thinking! And just have some part in the program that keeps track of how many blocks are placed... Then, once you run out of blocks, save the coordinates of the next block to be placed, so that you can return to it after you've restocked!

Well, you could use AE's precision import busses to yank all fuel out of the bed. At the moment, though, I'm getting enough coal and uranium from my boring machines in the deep dark that fuel loss isn't a huge concern. Still, I should probably invest in the highest-tier battery soon. I have the...

A more complicated solution could be turtles / pneumaticraft drones placing stone or cobblestone for you over a long period of time. Probably turtles, since the drones need to be recharged semi-regularly, though you'll need to figure out a way to have the turtles refill their block stock when...

True, but the power output of both of my turbines is a bit over 1 GW. Also, I didn't think that the turbines from reactorcraft could be turned off that quickly? I'd have to pull all the fuel out of the pebble bed in order to (slowly) stop producing steam...

I think the only reason I'm able to stomach these jokes is I hear them so often... That said, it still hurts... Also, feeding the power from the generators to a battery will work, but with the massive power output from the turbines, it may not be practical.

Sorry for the thread necro, but I've found the solution, and wanted to share it in case other users run into it: The way electricraft's resistors work is that they apparently limit the current from EACH induction generator to whatever value you set it to. Since I had a system powered by two...

Hello everyone, I've noticed that my resistors have stopped limiting power, and are allowing roughly twice the amount of current through that they should. Has this happened to anyone else? I'm running version 25z, by the way.

Yeah, I was trying the block-voiding method, but it was still dribbling steam. I've now started using a condenser + extra cells fluid void, and that seems to have done the trick. Thanks a bunch!

I thought condensers were used if you wanted to recycle the water? Since I'm not using ammonia I didn't think they were required... Still, worth a shot. Gotta be better than a chimney :D

I dunno, I just used a microturbine for my bedrock breaker. Not as fast, but I'm not usually too pressed for bedrock. Plus, since the breaker now mines an infinite direction horizontally (as of version 25z), you can just slap a chest on the breaker, give the turbine a portable tank of fuel and...

Does anyone have any preferred method of getting rid of excess steam in the nuclear reactor turbines? I've built a housing around mine that's steadily turning into a sauna...

Good to know. Since I was just starting the server up anyways, I could just wipe the world and try again.

Ahh... I can see how that might be a problem then, lol

Atg mod? Which one's that? Not sure I've heard the term before.
