[Minor] Energy transfer not as stated when no wires involved. #1794

Closed dj3520 closed 8 years ago

dj3520 commented 9 years ago

So I've made a setup with two energy clusters in parallel. That means the max I should be able to move is 548EU/t with a 1.6 ratio as shown below. image

However, after having the outputs directly touching an MFSU, I thought something was a bit off and discovered this: image That's a bit more than advertised. A bit as in twice.

As the picture somewhat shows, Buildcraft meets Galaticraft then converts directly into IC2 without a wire in the middle. Goes out the back via Glass Fibre Cable, through the gray box (an Average EU/t Counter from Nuclear Control) and up to the MFSU on top. RF -> gJ -> EU Using a Glass Fibre Cable drops this back to what it should be. This also occurs once the clusters are just converting energy and not supplying it via their buffers. That gives me what I generate, which is still about 800EU/t.

This appears to be a compatability problem, and not necessarily a Galacticraft problem.

It isn't exactly a problem per say, but unintended behavior

dj3520 commented 9 years ago

Retested with 400. Persists. image No wire between GC and IC2 yields 512Eu/t out of a single ESC when 287 advertized. However... image 256EU/t (configured 95% loss, but this isn't about energy conversion.)

Thanks for reporting and thank you for the November update, that was very helpful.

@dj3520 you have done a fine job keeping the issues list in check while I have been away from the mod.

This issue should be fixed next build. It was not a programming error per se. Simply that IC2 machines (unlike any of the other energy mods) "actively" suck energy out of any energy store they are connected to. So every tick, the MFSU is pulling energy out of the Energy Storage Module the IC2 way, and the Energy Storage Module is also pushing energy out the GC way. Result: a double transfer every tick.

np @radfast I subscribed to the repo to track issues in case something game breaking pops up. I also feel like if I see someone with a problem I might know the solution to I should at least say something. On Jan 5, 2016 8:15 PM, "Galacticraft developer" notifications@github.com wrote:
