Impossible to make decent turbine: AG

So, i've been wanting to make a nice 25x15x25 turbine on AG3 so I could have good power for my me system and machines, etc. However, the amount of water it will need to produce enough steam to fully power the turbine is insane. I'd have to have about 200-250 aqeuous accumulators with me fluid import buses and max importing speed to be able to fully power it maybe. I may need even more water. But that amount of constant me action going all the time would destroy the server's tps and ofc i'd be forced to remove them meaning I can't make a turbine. Is there anyway that transfer nodes/pipes could be enabled, or at least enabled for the player after a certain number of quests are beaten. Transfer nodes are an incredibly large amount faster and nearly no lag at all and would allow people to make turbines without worry or hurting the server. Please consider my request and thank you for your time reading this.

 

my turbine if I remember right is only 5x5x41 and it puts out more than enough power trick is use a closed circuit don't continually flow water in.

 

You want to use big reactors, right? The problem is not that its too much water. The problem is, that you waste the water going out of your turbine. If you doing a loop in this case, so, let the water going back to your bigreactor with a tesseract, would not cause a problem. Just test it in singleplayer how to loop the water and steam between your bigreactor and your turbine, without the need of more water.

 

I've tested it. I don't think the steam to water ratio is even though. I've put in 100,000mb into my reactor to make steam for my turbine. The steam seems to produce less water and the water produces more steam but the water eventually runs out.

 

no it will produce at an even rate

 

Any tutorials on this that you know of?

 

ummm I watched the minecrafters tutorial on big reactors and then just played around in SP until I was comfortable enough to put it on my island

 

Jepp. A normal tutorial and the knowledge that it is possible to make a loop with no loss, was enough. Its not very hard. Just big reactors with output and input and with the turbine the same.

 

Here are the two that I would recommend.

 

I got it. Don't use tesseracts. Just put ur reactor and turbine next to each other so their ports touch.
