Transformers Addon (Industrial Craft 2)

This mod adds 4 electric engines and 4 pneumatic generators. Electric engines are buildcraft engines which run off IndustrialCraft power. Pneumatic generators are generators which run off the buildcraft powergrid.

Ratio & Numbers:

• A steam engine produces 1600 MJ from one coal.


• A generator produces 4000 EU from one coal.


• Default conversion rate is based off this, so that’s MJ : EU as 2 : 5, however you can edit that in the config.


• This does mess up geothermals vs lava in combustion engines, as 1 bucket in a geothermal creates 20000 EU, and 1 bucket in a combustion creates 20000 MJ.


• Therefore this mod does nerf lava in combustion engines.

Slow Electric Engine:

(uses a Steam Engine)

Produces 1 MJ/t, defaultly uses 2.5 EU/t – equivalent to a Steam Engine.Accepts up to 32 EU/t before exploding.

Regular Electric Engine:

(uses a Combustion Engine)

Produces 5 MJ/t, defaultly uses 12.5 EU/t – equivalent to a Combustion Engine burning fuel. Accepts up to 128 EU/t before exploding.

Fast Electric Engine:

(uses 2 combustion engines)

Produces 10 MJ/t, defaultly uses 25 EU/t – equivalent to 2 combustion engines burning fuel, the exact amount a refinery/quarry/pump needs to run at max speed.

Accepts up to 512 EU/t before exploding.

Adjustable Electric Engine:

(uses 3 combustion engines)

This engine is adjustable, you can adjust the amount of MJ/t it will produce and thus the EU/t it will use. Accepts up to 2048 EU/t before exploding.

To set the amount it will produce, it has a nifty GUI:

Note that it’s not able to produce more BC energy than the equivalent of 2048 EU/t in BC energy rounded down, with a maximum of 1000. (2048 * 2 / 5 = 819,2)

However, the Adjustable Electric Engine produces way more energy a regular wooden conductive pipe can handle. That’s why there’s a new pipe: the HV Wooden Conductive Pipe.

Pneumatic Generators:

LV Pneumatic Generator:

Takes the equivalent of 32 EU/t in Buildcraft energy at maximum. Defaultly thats 12,8 MJ/t.

MV Pneumatic Generator:

Takes the equivalent of 128 EU/t in Buildcraft energy at maximum. Defaultly thats 51,2 MJ/t.

HV Pneumatic Generator:

Takes the equivalent of 512 EU/t in Buildcraft energy at maximum. Defaultly thats 204,8 MJ/t.

EV Pneumatic Generator:

(uses 2 geothermal generators)

Takes the equivalent of 2048 EU/t in Buildcraft energy at maximum. Defaultly thats 819,2 MJ/t.

Changelogs:

v2.0

• Fixed the dirt issue


• Fixed Adjustable Engines not working at low rates.


• Fixed Adjustable Engine recipe not working


• Other engine recipes now also work with charged batteries


• Changed the config abit, to cope with the new options while still featuring the old options
  
  And the new things:


• Added the Pneumatic Convertor! This will replace the Pneumatic Generator in future versions, but still needs testing and tweaking.


• Use is quite straightforward I think. It converts MJ to EU (BC to IC2 power) – but only directly. As in, no pipes, you attach your engine directly to the Convertor.


• Currently only vanilla BC engines are accepted, but I plan to add support for a lot more mod engines. Using this direct conversion the conversion is always the way it should be, there is no standard 2:5 ratio or anything, the ratio is different for every engine. Try it out, play with it, report bugs. Recipe is Advanced Machine in the middle, corners empty, rest filled with golden conductive pipes.
