Unleashed force powergrid. Fuel changes 1.1.3+?

[Scorpians]

So i wanted to be different from he others on my server and went with MJ as power. i chose force as i have done combustion before. This is my engine room, It has worked fine with shield for weeks. but my fuel started dropping, as my large tank held 3 weeks of average usage i was not to concerned but im down now to 3 days and no matter how much i try i cant get the levels back up.

My usage is no more than it was before and i have even tried bone meal to grow force trees from my multi farm faster. Does anyone know if they changed force or the amount you get from force logs? i know they were overpowered but i have not read anything about the changes in logs.

You should use a throttle :b


Dunno about your problem tho

Yes, needs a throttle like water, milk, or ice shards. Water is by far the easiest.

The force consumption was greatly increased at some point. Engines used to run 50 minutes on a single gem, now it's much less (less than 25% ?). Not sure exactly when it happened though.

 

[Wekmor]

I think 1 gem has been changed to 0.25 buckets of force instead of 1 bucket. But I thought that change came with 1.6.

I thought it was configurable? Check the config files maybe?

If you have MFR installed milk is almost as easy is twice as good :b

1 cow 1 rancher 1 clockwork engine to get it all going = pure win & too easy .... needs nerfing!!

Note throttles only increase the speed, not the ratio. Yes, you get more power out of it - but you consume just as much fuel.
