Change to the conversion Rates of SU and FE #699

Open Mowraq opened 11 months ago

Mowraq commented 11 months ago

I've seen that the fact that you could get 360fe/t from one alternator running on only 1024 su was a bug which led to abuse via motors. I'd like to suggest reverting that change and instead either downgrading the motor output in su as well or drastically increasing it's fe consumption to balance it. Or at least meet on a middle ground and set a input/output of 4k-8k. At the moment using an alternator to generate fe (which I wanted to do to power my base as i didn't know the conversion rate was wrong) is hardly worth it, concidering the kind of structures one needs to build to get a mere 360fe/t

The bug was fixed, the current default is 480fe/t at max rpm for the motor and then still 360fe/t for the alternator. do you think this is too much?

I think it is too little for the 16k SU in/output. From a giant maxed out steam tank with 18 engines I can only get 6480 fe/t which isn't bad on its own but can be reached way cheaper and faster by building a few cheap generators from other mods. And that's not even accounting for all that is necessary to automate the biofuel production. That's all I'm saying.
