The Force Engine is an engine producing MJ similar to a Combustion Engine though with a few bonus features as power output multipliers (throttle) and being non-explosive. Thus overheating will not result in a huge blast. The Force Engine is added by DartCraft.

Usage[edit]

Force Engines' main fuel is Liquid Force produced from Force Gems. Other liquid fuel such as Lava, Oil, BioFuel, Biofuel and Fuel can also be used as a source of power. In addition, a (liquid) throttle such as Water, Milk and Crushed Ice can be added to multiply the power output. Using water as a throttle is highly recommended as it is cheap to achieve, easy to automate and doubles the power output.

Force Engine Fuel Sources
Fuel MJ/t Ticks Total MJ
Lava 0.5 20,000 10,000
Oil 1.5 20,000 30,000
BioFuel 2.0 60,000 120,000
Biofuel 2.0 60,000 120,000
Fuel 3.0 100,000 300,000
Liquid Force 4.0 10,000 40,000

The following table shows the effect of the different throttles when running a Force Engine on Liquid Force.
