I tested running the bedrock drill in creative when that was added. Had to run it for a couple of hours just to get one damn unit of bedrock dust. And you need to get 210 of those to electrolyze one batch of adamantium ( 3 ). You really expect me to set up a server to host my game and run a bedrock drill 24/7 for a month? And I guess just void the tens or hundreds of thousands of units of stone and ore. Eff that. Maybe if the chance on getting the impure dust was only 1/100 instead of 1/1000. Thatās just ridiculous.

Itās RNG, I got one in less than a minute in creative. Youāre supposed to scan the adamantine and replicate it anyway

Yes, but while that only needs 1 unit, the smallest batch of it you can get is 3, which takes 210 impure bedrock dust, which means you have to drill, on average, 210,000 blocks.

You are aware the Bedrock Drill can run way fast if you provide it with power from all 4 Sides?

Just drill enough to make 1 tartarite ingotā¦ (assuming it can be replicated)

Yea, so if I built 4 magnalium turbines I would only have to run it 24/7 for two weeks and still have 210,000 ore to void ( and about 8x as much stone ), and would need 575 MILLION L of lubricant. And thatās just to train the mass fab how to spend huge amounts of energy making more.

hmm I started a new game and realized that most of this engine confuses me. These tooltips says its about 50% efficient but conversion rate is 25%. Before I could run a bronze boiler, bronze BB and Bronze engine to powering a crusher to crash ore. But now? ā¦ I must to use steel BB

Uhh compare the Input and Output, Efficiency doesnāt have any additional penalty.

the tooltips says converts 200l steam to 100 KU Efficiency: 50%, but input is for bronze engine 24 - 96 Steam/t and output 6 - 24 Ku/t. Thatās 200L steam to 50 KU. Or I missing something?

Efficiency is NOT AN ADDITIONAL PENALTY, its just an information. Its still exactly the same IN/OUT ratio that the Tooltip says.

Ok. That was my misunderstanding. First I am a bit confused because I remember using complete bronze setup for first crushing in earlier version but thatās impossible now, because bronze boiler and bronze BB gives only 48l steam/t. Or perhaps my memory is badā¦

48 Steam per tick should be enough shouldnāt it? Why donāt you try it?
2 Likes
because 48l steam is 12KU and bronze crusher need min 16KU 
I try, but machine didnāt start working unless I give them 64l steam
2 Likes
Steam is generally a 2 Liters to 1 Energy Unit ratio at 100%. So yeah, you need 64L of Steam to run it. But remember the bronze Engine can still be used on the Crucible to blow Air in for making Steel.

I cant seem to find out how much air does an KU engine generates in a crucible (other then it seemingly making it batches large enough). Or rather at what rate those batches are made. I do apologize if i missed it somewhere.

One Liter of Air per KU. So 1000 KU = 1 Unit of Air.

i found a little bug:
Is normal that the description of Nitric Acid say āLighter than Air (Moves up)ā?
