    that is why one of my ideas was a higher capacity pipe that only allows steam.

    Actually you can use an add-on of buildcraft by denoflions called Valve pipes for the high capacity pipe; It has the Industrial waterproof pipe that have I don't remember 2 or 4 times capacity of normal gold waterproof pipe.. so 2 industrial pipes can provide steam for 100% power of steam turbine.. but that is still too much because fusion reactor only have 2 outputs IIRC...

    Do you have plans for an upgraded version of the generator? With the way things currently are, methane burning seems like it can get rather space-consuming rather quickly... Not to mention the logistics of keeping all those generators supplied.

    Actually there's an add-on called Advanced Generator (1.106 atm) but the author wants to wait until official release before updating it.. hopefully there will be a new official release one day..

    Khalamov I think it's not a bug, the superconductor can hold any voltage (any eu/t?) and send it as a packet of 1,000,000 so it will be evenly divided to 16 hv transformers?.... The thing is that supercondensator only convert to 8192 eu/t while hv transfomers can only withstand maximum of 2048 eu/t right? if the hv transformers are not exploding that means the superconductor wires that connect supercondensator to hv transformers somehow convert 8192 to 2048 (via eu/p)?

    Yeah thats why it would have to be very expensive to use and make. By the time that you can make it you'll already have quarries, mass amoutns of resources, etc. Once you hit a certain point, theres not much need for mining, so end game mining should be more able to go after specific ores and such that takes more precise work than a quarry or anything could do. So instead of blindly mining with your high tech mining tools, you could instead look for specific things that you may need. It would be WAY overpowered if you could get it low tech, but I'm talking about something that will drain more eu than you would usually use at lower levels and would cost mostly the highest tier stuff that gregtech adds.


    EDIT: Also is the industrial electrolyzer supposed to be taking energy when theres nothing in it? >.>

    nope, it shouldn't take any energy if there's nothing inside to process, but it has some internal eu storage; so it might be because of that...

    Thanks. Now to set up a computer program! By the way, is the side of the supercondensator with the dot on it is the input when un-redstoned?

    The side with the dot is the output..



    Btw, you don't need the supercondensator for fusion reactor, just connect superconductor wires directly from the output of the fusion reactor and then connect your superconductor wires to 16 HV transformers and then to glass fibres and lastly to your storage unit (better try it in creative :D)

    Does the implosion compressor require any casings below it? I think it does, but in what shape? And where does the compressor go?


    Thanks in advance for any answers! :)

    Yes it requires standard and reinforced casings, I believe it's explained in the left side schematic in the GUI of Implosion Compressors so better check it out :) ..

    Could someone help me out with the recipe for the Cupronickel Heating Coil? It's not listed on the Wiki and does not show up on NEI, maybe it is bugged in this release, or disabled?
    Addon version 2.53d (latest).

    heh, it is listed at my NEI, using 2.53d, anyway the recipe is



    Did you use the latest CCC and NEI?


    Great mod so far, though I'm not liking the extremely really rare iridium that's needed for all high tech stuff including the matter fabricator which can make iridium. I know, I know, I can change stuff in the config, just seems like cheating.


    What if there was some sort of expensive iridium detector that would roughly guide you to find it. Like maybe just have it check if there is iridium inside the chunk you're in. That would be 16x16 from bedrock to surface you would still have to dig to find it. Or maybe a range detector that maxes out when you're like 32 or so blocks away from it (so you can't exactly pinpoint it).

    Try the sheldonite ore in The End; it gives you 1 iridium chunk per 4 sheldonite ores (ind. grinder)..

    Hmmm. Interesting. I was using NEI to lookup the recipes. The only source of nickel is there nickel dust. Nickel dust only shows up in combination with iridium ore or platinum dust. The Industrial Centrifuge Page of NEI only shows 1/1 Pages. Odd. Is there another plugin I need for that?


    I really like the idea with the achivement system. After googleing for 2hours i did not find the centrifuge recipes. Maybe I am blind or something but I only found the wiki page with the recipes, which does not contain the dust sources.

    Centrifuging Copper Dust gives you tiny piles of Nickel dust, I think all the tiny pile dusts are hidden in NEI, try to search the recipe of Nickel dust and then to the recipe of tiny pile of nickel dust in NEI..


    Try the GregTech Computer Cube (on creative/test world), it gives you all kind of recipes there..

    hi,
    I think that the rock cutter is too powerful, with 1 hour of mining, I get almost 1 full gold chest of redstone :S and its too easy to maintain (electricity only)

    How did you get 81 stacks of redstone with 1 hour mining.. considering you need 6 redstone ores per stack, that's 486 redstone ores per 1 hour.. 1 redstone ores per 7 seconds? With Dense Ore? ..but I think you will need those redstone ores for rubies.. so not a big deal..

    I know it seems unrealistic, just imagine that these Industrial Centrifuge and Electrolyzer are Magic Boxes;


    offtopic:
    It will be cool if there's a mod that specifically implements these RL reactions like using different chemical reactors(continuous or plug), T/P sensors, T/P requirements with heat exchangers/compressor, real coolant, gas/liquid inlet+outlets, different catalysts, processing the waste of the reaction, quality control, post and pre treatment of products and sources.... of course first you need to design the reactor and stuff...and then you have different simulators for different reactions..

    Very fun addon, I really liked the fact that it enhance IC2 progression, for example getting a drill is now naturally extending vanilla progression, not replacing it (with normal IC2 most people don't even make diamond picks). One thing that I don't like about it is stechiometric recipes. That's not how chemistry work. With current GT machines there are possibilities for much more realistic processing. Mixing elements to get compounds feels really weird. Magical machine to separate compounds to elements also isn't exactly reasonable.

    Did you mean stoichiometry? Even from vanilla mc, the game is not that realistic.. For example who IRL can make a diamond block just using a table and 9 diamonds lol..
