QUESTION: Transformers\Storage & EU loss

  • I haven't been able to find a clear answer to this anywhere, only hints.


    Does sticking transformers\storage blocks in your cabling 'reset' the EU-loss due to distance?

    in short: yes, at least for Bat-boxes, MFE's and MFSU's, I would presume transformers as well but that requires a step-up or step-down action.
    makes for slightly bursty energy transmission unless the source delivers an even 32, 128 or 512 but it evens out. I've got a few MFE's between my nuclear reactor and the mass fab and everything makes it through no problem. (though I can remove half of them now that I know glass fibre is 39 losless and not 19)

  • what is the easiest way to measure EU loss? Or is there one, outside of calculation?


    "easiest"? there's only one in game, a EU reader while knowing exactly how much is being input.
    The other is just looking up the EU/block loss number on the wiki.
