INFINITE ENERGY, THE SAFE WAY Industrial Craft + Equivalent exchange (also can use technic pack)

Quote from RawCode

EE is not SMP, soo relax and enjoy "noncheat TMI"

less-cheat. Also, thermodynamics does not approve of closed loop matter generation, and might decide you would be more useful as energy than matter

Quote from SirCB85

Well, I just started using EE in conjunction with IC² and did some Math.

1 Obsidian = 8 Ice
1 Ice = 8 Glass | 1 Obsidian = 64 Glass
2 Glass = 3 Sand | 1 Obsidian = 96 Sand
4 Sand = 1 Sandstone | 1 Obsidian = 24 Sandstone
8 Sandstone = 1 Redstone Ore | 1 Obsidian = 3 Redstone Ore
4 Redstone Ore = 1 Iron Ore | 4 Obsidian = 12 Redstone Ore = 3 Iron Ore
4 Iron Ore = 1 Gold Ore | 16 Obsidian = 12 Iron Ore = 3 Gold Ore
4 Gold Ore = 8 Golddust = 8 Goldingots = 1 Diamond | 64 Obsidian = 12 Gold Ore = 24 Gold Ingots = 6 Diamonds

8 Obsidian = 1 Lapis Lazuli Ore
4 Lapis Lazuli Ore = 1 Diamond | 32 Obsidian = 1 Diamond

Could someone comment if I just miscalculated something? Because it strikes me as odd you would get half a Diamond extra per Obsidian Stack by going the long path even without macerating the Gold Ore.

just did a test run on the math and your right you do get more the long way. stack of 64 Obsidian gets you 2 Diamonds the fast way while the long way gets you 2 Diamonds-3 Gold Ore-3 Iron Ore-2 Redstone Ore-6 Cobblestone. which means that when you convert the long way you get, 2.98046875 Diamonds and that's with pure EE no dusts at all. with IC2 you get 5 Diamonds-3 Gold Ingots-2 Iron Ingots for a total of 5.875 Diamonds(short by a little since when going from Redstone to Iron the value doubles and i didn't want to figure out that part of the math)
