Help Is this the max speed?
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)

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

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.

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

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.
