How to fuel it early in the game? or there is no point in using it early? "by early i mean im just getting into MV level of power" because it eats through any fuel in a seconds, even in the 25% power

the big boilers are really bad - do NOT use them

#

K, so fluid steam boilers is the plan?

make HPLB or switch to naphtha/benzene as soon as possible

haughty finch
#

Oh, k, ty

#

Welp, anyways, i use naphtha generator in my main factory, but i needed more power for electric blast furnace, so i was thinking of any power source

#

But now i think i will just use batteries before i can switch power input to the MV level

you can use a battery buffer - or 4 combustion generators for the EBF

#

Welp, that was my plan

#

I was just trying to implement big boiler with steam generators

#

(I was testing it in the creative world)

#

Anyways soon enough i will able to make ULV solar panels, so i think it will be easier soon

#

Sorry for my broken english

#

Its not my native language

#

th GT solar panels are really useless

haughty finch
#

Oh... i see... there is no recipe for the MV solars panels+?

#

No free solar power for me, k, i will just use diesel generators

#

unless your modpack adds some - no - and the ULV one only generates 8EU/t - that can basically only run a macerator when processing ore

#

Welp, i was thinking to use it as extra source of energy, in every stage

#

For the buffers

#

IMHO at MV you can build benzene power using logs from a green house (or another tree farm) - at HV you can turn that into nitro benzene

#

alternative you can use oil based fuel - but you will need to move pumps around until you can build the fluid rigs at EV+
