That's disappointing...I'm not fond of performance engines. Mostly because I can't seem to run one without it exploding horribly. Doesn't matter if I give it entire oceans per tick of water and have it cooled with a fin touching ice, they still blow their stacks.

I have never had that issue. Indeed, I often have trouble getting them to overheat when testing...
While we're on the subject, what exactly does the performance engine upgrade do? I've never been able to figure that out...
It allows you to upgrade a regular engine to a performance engine in place. You can also uncraft a regular engine using the worktable and a redstone signal, and then update the parts to make a performance engine.
So... pretty much every major version of Reika's mods?
Hm...it is not a techtree machine, so that is not an issue...is it acceptable if I only make it disableable if either EnderStorage or RailCraft are installed?
Why would you make this dependant on other mods? Given that you can also use vanilla chest carts for item transport.
Yeah that's fine, railcraft is definitely going to be used to manage carts for what I'm trying so it's no issue from me.
I tried powering a Skeleton spawner in the Nether (Wither skeletons -> Coal -> Fractionator) with a performance engine. When I placed it down, it lasted for about half a second before exploding.
Related exploit: Unless it blew up something I didn't notice, it exploded into 11 stacks of HSLA steel scrap, vastly exceeding the 30 or so steel required to make it.
Ambient temperature = 300C.I tried powering a Skeleton spawner in the Nether (Wither skeletons -> Coal -> Fractionator) with a performance engine. When I placed it down, it lasted for about half a second before exploding.
Now the real question: How many steel ingots does that make?
Ambient temperature = 300C.
Funny how it contains enough energy to make a large crater even without any fuel or additives.
Now the real question: How many steel ingots does that make?
Enough to make the microturbine I ended up using instead.
Is there any chance of a re-buff/buff to the rotational dynamo's since they seem a little weak now as apposed to other energy generation. 16k rf/tick generated by one vs the massive 190k rf/t draw on top end magnetostatics. (I just want a reliable back up power supply without having to use big reactors *shudders*)

He just more than doubled his steel using his numbers. I haven't mapped out a performance engine resource-wise before, so I don't know how accurate that estimate is, but if his report is accurate and the scrap>ingot recipe is 9:1?
78 steel will be produced with 11 stacks of scrap
ReactorCraft. The generator there can output way more than the rotational dynamo. Basic reactors are easy (though not always safe during the learning process) to make and fuel. Just chunkload.

Yea I know.. I have 2 large multi core fission reactors, both designed for creating tritium, 1 functioning for such a purpose and the other producing steam for a HP turbine, a functioning 50+ core pebble bed and a stable fusion reactor that I've had running for 3 weeks straight and sinced turned off as I have 30 trillion or so RF stored up in electricraft battery's and I wanted some frame rates back 'till I upgrade this god forsaken computer
My point being, since the turbine generators received such a huge buff to their RF/t output (HP turbine hooked up to a turbine generator @ ~8Gwatt used to produce 1.5 million rf/tick) and the consumption of magnetostatics has been bumped up massively, it seemed like the rotarycraft rotational dynamo is lagging behind the conversion ratio for wattage:RF?
P.S Reika why is it that I lose frame rate from the hydrogen pre-heaters, more-so the heatray's while they are functioning? I know my PC needs an upgrade, but these out of all the things in my world make the biggest impact it feels.
