Talk:Fuel Generator

A MK2 Oil Pump was added to the "Generators per node" table. Are we sure there will be a MK2 Oil Pump? The first miner already has "MK1" in the name, the Oil Pump doesn't. To me, that suggests there may not ge an upgrade for the pump. --CerbrusNL (talk) 09:17, 29 March 2019 (UTC)

Incorrect efficiency values
The power consumed by the oil refineries should be taken into account, no?

For example, the current entry for a pure node at clock speed 100% was calculated from 1800MW / 40MW / 100, for an efficiency value of 0.45.

If we add the 200MW from the 4 oil refineries used to convert the oil to fuel, the calculation becomes 1800MW / 240MW / 100, for an efficiency value of 0.075.

Fuel Efficiency
I believe that the efficiency should be calculated as net power/gross power In this case that would be (rounded down power - power used)/rounded down power so for example the impure 100% would be (450 - 90)/450 = .8 to get to %, you multiply by 100 to get 80% normal would be (900 - 140)/900 = .8444 or 84% and pure would be (1800-240)/1800 = .86666 or 87%
