Upgrading engines??

[Buffalo_Wings_Master]

So i read on another thread that someone had "upgraded" an electric engine to produce 10 MJ/t instead of 2 MJ/t
Is this actually possible? (if so, how?)

Eletrical engines can be upgraded with circuit boards

what other upgrades are there?
how exactly does that work? just right click the engine with the circuit board?

No, you have to "modify" your circuit board with a sodering iron (make that NOW) and add to the circuit some electron tubes.

You use a soldering iron to place an electron tube in a circuit board, then the circuit board in an engine.

In virtually every case though you would use the iron efficiency upgrade. All of the other upgrades make the inefficient electrical engine even less efficient. That 10mj/t is costing substantially more power than 5 engines with efficiency.

Normal usage is 6eu/t, but with efficiency it's 5eu/t.

I don't remember the numbers for the other upgrades, but some were pretty bad.

where can i see a list of possible upgrades?

Third link.

Hmm this 'wiki' thing might start to catch on

Here, keep a bookmark on the link in my sig.
It'll help more then some folks around here.
