Right, let me throw this out there, this is for an older, probably unsupported, version of Mekanism, but, I can at least ask and hope for the best. >.< I seem to remember, in 1.7.10, that a tower of 8 Mekanism Heat Generators producing 80 RF a tick if all 8 were surrounded by lava on 5 sides. I've been playing an old 1.7.10 pack (made up a pack though the Twitch Client) and I am finding the old trick isn't working any more. O.o Each generator is only putting out 1.5 ish RF a tick with 5 sides of lava. I double checked and, yeah, lava source blocks on 5 sides of each one. Under, three sides, and top. Did you nerf it or am I being a derp and my memory is full of swiss cheese? >.<

Version (make sure you are on the latest version before reporting):

Forge: 10.13.4.1614
Mekanism: 1.7.10-9.1.1.1031

So 1 per side of lava is 5 if it's 5 sides x 5 that is default is 25 J, so assuming 2.5J per RF is true, 25 J / 2.5 is 10, unless something is going whistling over my head. O.o At 5 it's producing 1.5 ish RF/t with 5 lava blocks on 5 of the sides. Currently I have it set to 20 and it's producing 39.99 J or 15.98 RF/t, 39.99 / 15.98 is 2.5, so that's confirmed. But I don't get the above, 5x20 is 100, yet it's only making 40. I can provide pics of my setup, you'll see 5 sides have lava, the core is where the Energy Conduit runs up.

assuming 2.5J per RF is true

Is that what your config says?

llloyd4 · Answer 3 · 2017-09-18T08:24:03.000Z

D:JoulesToEU=10.0 D:JoulesToRF=2.5 Looks like it?

IIRC the calculations are always multiplications. That's why there are both from and to values in the config (at least in modern MC versions)

Did you restart after changing the config?

llloyd4 · Answer 5 · 2017-09-18T09:13:39.000Z

Yeap, I closed out Minecraft then once the new config was saved I restarted Minecraft. The magic number appears to be 15, that's 24.97 J/t or 9.98 RF/t . ![2017-09-18_03 09 15](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7238110/30537551-f101e524-9c1e-11e7-9628-208a8b1ad2f0.png) ![2017-09-18_03 11 11](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/7238110/30537575-0daffea4-9c1f-11e7-803f-01cf82f4f849.png)

It appears to be a config option. heatGenerationLava should be it.

llloyd4 · Answer 7 · 2017-09-18T05:32:05.000Z

Hmm... 5, presumably 5 J , and the wiki says '1 *RF* = 0,1 *MJ* = 2,5 *J* = 0,25 *EU ' *' So, in theory, it should be making 2 rf a tick, if I want it 10 like the old days, that would be 25 J I'll have to give that a poke. As I checked, even Vaygrim said a tower of 8 should produce 80, or 10 per - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6tLXSEasnfY&t=5m5s ...

That's from a much much older version of Mekanism. Lots of things have changed.

See 020d347

As a summary:
old
5 per side of lava
new
(1 per side of lava) x heatGenerationLava

The value is indeed in Mekanism J, which also may have changed, and you'd need to look at your config to determine the correct value, as any wiki may or may not be accurate.

Escape characters ;) \ is a special character and escapes stuff

llloyd4 · Answer 13 · 2017-09-18T23:24:50.000Z

Guess it is a bug but one that'll never get fixed? Or is 5J per side wrong?

As I said before, the code says 1 x sides with lava x heatGenerationLava in Mekanism J. I don't particularly care about how much RF that translates to, as that's a separate issue.

If the formula does not hold true we will check it on current versions, but quite unlikely to get fixed on 1.7

llloyd4 · Answer 15 · 2017-09-19T02:28:15.000Z

Doesn't seem to be. 5 x 15 should be 75 j and I am not getting that. So... And, yeah, I kinda figured it was not gonna get fixed.
