Before I get yelled at for not knowing how to use the search bar, just know that I do, and I cant find the answer anywhere. Beleive me, asking this was a last resort. But here I am anyway. So...:

How is liquificated coal made ?

Cant find in NEI, cant find it on the WIKIs, couldnt find it in the threads...

Somewhere over the rainbow.
Question about this, is it more effective and does it produce more energy than it cost to create it first, if not, I don't see any point in that liquificated coal at all, unless you can use charcoal which I'm quite sure can't be used since it would be OP...

Liquefacted coal is *so* worth it. I don't believe it's *quite* as much energy as coal coke, but it's more net energy than standard coal for sure.

Thanks for the infos, there's absolutely nothing to be found about TE3, no wiki, nothing about that awesome mod except a few videos of people LP on Youtube but having to watch a 33 minutes video to learn about 1 detail is quite time consuming.

liquifacted coal is 1/2 the power of BC fuel its an alternative if you don't have any other means

2/3. Look in the configs, it burns for... 1000000 RF or something like that, while BC fuel burns for 1500000 RF.
And speaking of configs, those are pretty much where most of the fuel information is.

also if in doubt i think you can burn almost any forge fluids out there provided you have tinkered with the configs but that's off topic

Costs: Pulverized Coal = 2,400RF, Liquifacted Coal (100mB) = 8,000RF, Total = 10,400RF
Yield: 1 Coal (Steam Dynamo) = 32,000RF, 1B LCoal = 1,000,000RF, 100mB LCoal = 100,000RF
Profit: 100,000 - 10,400 (Processing) = 89,600RF per Coal

Melting coal yields 2.8 times the energy of raw coal in a steam dynamo. Pulverizing it also produces sulfur, which can be used to craft pyrotheum for smelting, fuel, moats, hijinks, etc.

Now the question is if I can produce excess RF with MFR laser drills...btw is there a coal focus

black lens it just gives you a higher chance other than that its still random black and gray most likely
