alq ue Posted May 26, 2022 Report Share Posted May 26, 2022 Is there a mod that removes power loss when using for example long axles? I made a hefty gearbox for my helve setup but it seems to unfortunately lose too much power as it goes through the system Not saying it's optimal or perfect or anything, but it works, and not having concrete values on power loss around makes it fairly difficult to balance around. Is there a mod that just removes the entire mechanic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Streetwind Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 You're the first one I have ever seen who claims to notice power loss through axles. I don't know exactly how much loss there is, but the community is pretty much in agreement over the fact that it is extremely miniscule. Like on the order of 1% loss for multiple dozens of sections. Heck, Tyron might have silently removed it and we wouldn't be able to tell, it's that low. How gargantuan is your setup? And are you absolutely sure it is power loss over distance that creates the effect you're seeing? Because I'm willing to bet that you're seeing some other idiosyncracy of the VS mechanical power system here Why don't you describe your problem, and maybe offer a screenshot or two? I'm sure we can troubleshoot this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omega Haxors Posted August 29, 2022 Report Share Posted August 29, 2022 The problem is that the helvehammer has a nonlinear power consumption: As the speed goes up, so too does the energy consumption. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
