    Saw this in someone else's base so credit to [don't remember who you were]

    If you set up a liquid transfer node with world interaction upgrade over an infinite water source going into your decomp chamber it will generate TONS of hydrogen to burn in stirling generators. I currently have it going into a sorting chest and sorting barrels, 2 barrels filling and running 9 stirling gens with plenty to spare! No more need to smash sugar cane/trees/whatever for fuel! Just make sure you have a sorting barrel with void upgrade because you get more oxygen than you will know what to do with.

    I have been using that(the endless water source)...but I can't seem to get the relocator pipes to evenly distribute the Hydrogen to all the generators. Any suggestions for the relocation pipes? How can I get them to evenly distribute the hydrogen?

    Ugh....The pipes only keep 3 of my generators filled and the other two(on the outsides) don't get any. I may have to use a bspace barrel for each 3 then. :(
    I need more power for more sifters. I only have 3 at the moment.

    I have it going into a sorting chest then have 3 sorting barrels stacked on top of it with hydrogen. all 4 sides have generators + 1 on top of the stack. 2 World Interaction Upgrades in the liquid transfer node is more than enough to keep up with all 13 stirling generators.

    I solved my problem. I set my jabba barrel up one level and over to the right to off set it....added on relocator pipe to reach it and now it is feeding all 5 of my generators equally. Seems setting it in the middle wasn't working. So with my jabba barrels I have one infinite water source with decomposer, 3 bspace jabba barrels and 10 generators keeping filled with hydrogen.

    Lava was an early source for me until I could get the materials to build my other items. But there is no way to pipe it in the generators. So Hydrogen was the next step.

    I think a tank on one side with that side set to input works. Not at my computer so can't test it. Also liquid transfer nodes and transfer pipes are essential in early GS for any sort of automation since they are fairly cheap
