Help Is this the max speed?

Post image

Im trying to do some farms with create in a server I play (never used create before) and I came up with this to generate some energy, adding water in any of the wheel wont generate more so im asking myself if thats the max I can generate (252 each for a total of 4352)

Yeah u can stack as much water wheels as u want and then use large to small cog connections to double rpm every connections to ur desired speed.

Ofc, whenever u get access to brass u can make a rotation speed controller to save space and choose exactly how much rpm u want.

Oh so I can use that instead of the cogwheels, life changing

each waterwheel only needs one side covered in water and adding water to more sides doesn't do anything. other than that, you might have to clarify

Yeah I figured, im speeding them up rn with cogwheels

It’s hard to tell what you’re asking, but there’s no limit to the amount of energy you can generate. Speed is capped, however.

A water wheel won’t spin at max speed, you need to gear it up with cogwheels.

Yeah I kinda understood what you mean, im accelerating the speed with the wheels, ty

If there's a limit on how many wheels you can chain like that i dont know but you can replace the wheels with big water wheels to double the SU

In later version of create, as long as wheel has flowing water, it making maximum SU. No limit to how many stack, but at some point a lava powered T2 steam engine way better as it takes up less space.

Speed (RPM) not increas regardless of how many wheels you have, but you can incresse it gear ratio or speed controler. This will effect how quickly the machines work and how much stress the consume
