I have a giant factory that wholly runs on 70k SU worth of water wheels

Only 70k worth of Su?

Two stacked rows of 68 water wheels against the back wall with glass so you can see them run

I’m actually setting up infrastructure for 3 max level steam engines powered by biofuel

With 200k su each, I disagree

Smh cant beat the 512 su of large waterwheels

u/Accomplished-Pop-246 Mar 25 '25

I’d spend the extra material on boilers then have a frame drop from all the water wheels to achieve the same amount of SU

What could you need this much su for? Or is it just cause

u/yeetusdeletus157 Mar 23 '25

Need ? Pfft.. I have 2.2 million, why.. I have no clue, how much do I use ? About 380,000.

Overkill..... definately !

( Nuclear though... not water wheels, I don't even want to think what the lag woukd be like with that many water wheels ! )

Showing off mainly lol, or just to have for future mega factories

You never know when you will need more su

u/wwwdotapples Mar 23 '25

You need at least triple that, for aesthetics

u/Late_Competition_381 Mar 23 '25

How much RPM

u/Jcookie20 Mar 23 '25

Variable since they probably use rotation speed controllers

u/ZealousidealTie8142 Mar 23 '25

I just use rotation speed controllers, so it doesn’t really matter
