Efficient biofuel usage- boiler or engines?

[whythisname]

I did some tests whit the bogs myself, they do work whit a 1 block wide gap and the turbary can harvest up to three bogs (one on the same level of the turbary and the other two above/below that one)

I can confirm that. Also, I turned off the peat engines and turned them on again to see if interrupting power has any effect, it doesn't look like it though as they continued working just fine after turning on the power again. Maybe they can bug out or something, but I'm assuming under normal conditions it won't be an issue if power drops or is cut temporarily.
I do advice to activate them from bottom to top though, the bottom one did seem to have trouble starting when the top 2 Bogs were already working.

Anyway that's good news for my Peat farms, it means I just have to move 1 and probably restart the other 2 in the right order to get everything up and running

Am I the only one here who tried running a boiler on a blaze shard?

(this may get fixed, but shard-spawned blazes will drop rods from environmental damage)

The bog earth machine needs 1 air block above it to be auto replaced by the peat bog. Other than that the forestry machines are pretty robust.

You can stack them with just the one air gap between each. The turbory can harvest 3 floors of peat bogs in that arrangement.

celestal this is unlikely to be fixed since it was shadw's intentiont o work that way unlike vanilla spawners.
