[Bug Report]: MI default FE/EU ratio changed; Flux Transformer quest needs updating

Closed this issue ยท 3 comments

Modpack Version

Since 1.18.0 (MI 2.3.2)

Describe your issue.

Modern Industrialization 2.3.2 changed the default ratio of FE per EU from 1 FE per 1 EU to 10 FE per 1 EU, an increase of 10x. According to the release notes, the author thought 10 FE/EU was a more reasonable default conversion ratio.

This makes the description of the Flux Transformer quest out of date, as the Flux Transformer is still configured to convert EU to FE at a 25 FE per 1 EU ratio.

One of the following should resolve this:

  • Deprecate and later remove the Flux Transformer.
  • Keep the Flux Transformer at 25 FE per 1 EU, and update the quest description to state it is 2.5 times more efficient than simply plugging in EU cables to FE machines.

Actually, i think the play is to set the MI conversion rate to 1:1. The idea of the flux transformer is to gate the high conversion rate at a later point of progression. So, either set the default MI conversion rate to 1:1, or change it to something like 1:2 or 1:3 as a default and update the quest to say that the flux transformer increases it by a lot more.

Being able to generate power for MI via FE is a big no and part of what makes the mod great.
Also, 10 FE converting to 1 EU in a, by default, disabled setting does not mean that 1 EU should not convert to 25FE by an end game block. It should be one of the rewards you get after getting to the end game of MI. Considering how much meka's reactors generate, it's only fair too.

The conversion ratio applies in the other direction as well: by default, after MI 2.3.2, supplying 100 EU/t to a Mekanism energy cube will charge it by 1,000 FE/t (previously 100 FE/t). Using MI to power an ME system consuming five thousand AE/t now only costs a saturated MV cable (1024 EU/t) instead of a saturated HV cable and a bit (10k EU/t).
