hey guys, i have created a network of 18 high pressure boilers,max size. they are supposed to make 12,960 milibuckets of steam/tick. i have connected a liquid tesseract to the liquiducts that move the steam out of the boilers and 3-4 tesseracts to power other machines with the power converter mod blocks. the problem is, not enough steam is tranfered with the tesseracts.. any ideas on what to do? everything is checked,everything is chunk loaded.. i have connected one tesseract into an iron tank and tried to pull steam out of the tank with another channel in the liquid tesseract GUI but the rate of steam transfer is even lower.. please help !

PS: do i need to post photos of these? thanks in advance for all your help, sorry if this thread is in the wrong place :)

Edit: i'm using the ultimate pack + optifine.

Are you putting all the steam from all the boilers into one liquid tesseract? If so, I think you are going to have to use a few more liquid tesseracts for all those boilers because one is not going to be able to pump enough steam effectively.

^ that's the issue (99% sure, though need to know how many you are using to confirm :)), liquid tesseracts are limited on both input and output.

Tesseracts are limited to an input of 160mb per face (so you need to use 5 faces to input the full amount of steam from 1 36HP boiler. The output is not limited, however, since liquiduct input is limited, you are essentially limited to 80mb per output face (160mb for powered liquiduct).

Valves on tanks are limited as well, I'm not sure what their limits are though.
