I could honestly careless if you take me sriously, I did all the testing myself. There is zero ways to make Ethanol fuel a boiler with positive energy output, when you factor in the MJ for the growing of saplings/other fermentables, the power draw of the fermenters and then the...

Apparently they believe everyone has access to a stable Mystcraft oil ocean/oil field now so they made it a requirement to use a boiler or a combustion engine. Seems in Railcraft/BC/Forestry if theres a possibility, even if its extremely rare or difficult to obtain then its made the standard for...

Probably because EnderIO makes for very boring builds since you can compress things so much, the cable/pipe bundles honestly feels like a magical do anything block.

Well this will make the gregtech people happy I guess. Just making and refining the liquid fuels now takes so much of the potential mj you would have got out of it you might as well set up MFR tree farms, make charcoal and run everything with arrays of sterling engines and solid boilers that way.

You can't use firestones on a Liquid Boiler. Also the fuel burn rate still shows the exact same for all the standard bc engines 6mj x 100,000 ticks as it was in 1.5, unless its bugged.

There appears to be a config that's set to 1.0 by default, to get the same as pre-nerf it would need to be 4.0. Which everyone either has to do to make it useful at all or simply forget the liquid boiler even exists there is no other real option.

...What happened to these things? Currently Ethanol/Biofuel produces 8k heat & Fuel produces 24k heat, 1/4 what they used to produce in 1.5.2! What is the point of the Boiler now? The steam engines and steam turbines still produce the exact same amount of power, its not like they were quadrupled...

Ender IO pipes fill sequentially (like standard BC pipes) and fill the attached devices faster closer to the source then devices further down the chain, Liquiducts fill the entire system simultaneously and equally distribute liquid across all connected things. Completely different functionality.

Ender IO pipes don't function anything like liquiducts. It isn't a acceptable replacement for TE.

Really. Here's the prototype of one of our refineries we run on our server (we have 3 of these.). http://i.imgur.com/tAPqmyd.png This refinery design was divided into 5 sections of 20 that can be scaled with need. Most of the time all 5 sections are running 100% 24/7. So to test we converted...

Its more like this. 1. Mod A (Buildcraft) introduces original ideal of an item (Waterpoof Pipes), people are happy as it does its job though primitive because no one has ever seen anything like it. 2. Time Passes, Mod A's item is no longer capable of meeting the changing demands it wasn't...

Their a flat out requirement for larger servers that focus on large scale production. Literally nothing we make would function with BC pipes, the server would grind to a halt as the pipes just backlog til they freeze up entirely if you have enough of them, they are simply not designed for...

Your assuming the liquid doesn't just bounce back and forth in the pipes doing absolutely nothing unless random chance leads it to it to a destination with room to accept it. If they functioned like a Liquiduct and were just 10mb/t, then yes my math would be really bad, however they don't. It...

40mb/t is still horrible compared to Liquiduct's Speed of 100mb/t, it doesn't actually move at 40mb/t anyway it just enters the pipe system at 40mb/t and rolls around it in random directions at the speed of molasses til it exits to random machine, a Liquiduct instantly transfers its contents at...

Holy crap, I just installed 1.6.4 to test some of the new mods and I'm using the standard BC water pipes instead of the Liquiducts.. do you know how horrible this is? I can't describe how shit these things are, I didn't remember them beings this terrible but my god this is horrifing. A simple...

O neat, I didn't know you could do this, now its not a complete pita to fit them together with less wasted space.

It would be a catastrophe to lose TE :o I really hope you open source it or something before you go.

12 MJ is max speed.

If I wanted easy I got thousands of buckets of fuel layin around I could have used, this is a because-I-can sort of thing.

Working on making a Creosote 36HP Boiler atm, with Cacti providing the Creosote (.03 per, compared to woods .25 :D). My previous calculations of 450 Coke Ovens was sadly insufficent I'm currently building more.
