The dynamos (I'm using compression and Magmatic) and the energy cells seem to have a mind of their own and I can't get them to draw power the way I want them to draw power, which is unfortunate to me because in FTB Ultimate about 8 months ago I had a power system that was running perfectly to me liking.
So I need to know if I can do something like it in Direwolf 20 beta (We run v1.0.18). In Ultimate my old power system worked like this: There was a central power area that handled bringing the power into it's self and sending the power out to all the machines requesting power, it could then ask for power from energy cells that stored power directly from my engines (Had magma and steam engines). Cool thing was, it drew from each of the engine's power stores equally. So when the power generation cells needed power, all the engines pumped at once until each cell was full and then they'd turn off.
I would really like this to be setup because this system I have now with dynamos just drains magma, does nothing with compression dynamos because ??? (For some reason the central Resonant Energy cell I set up will only draw from the magmatic dynamos), and generally confuses me how power draw works.
Optimally, I would like it to be that: The Resonant Energy Cell is the main power storage with all machines asking power from it, then it would request power from each of the 2 energy cells that are hooked up to both types of dynamos I use and ask from power equally from them, and then the dynamos would activate to restore power to their cells again.
Willing to look at other ways of power generation to get something that is smarter than this wasteful system I have setup. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
