"We're short on tin ore again..."
Yang Bo sighed helplessly. Compared with the more plentiful copper ore, tin ore had now become his scarcest resource.
"If only I had a Transmutation Table. I don't even need dark matter or red matter. Just give me a portable Transmutation Table."
He sighed.
Once again, he used a small amount of resources to craft a Manual Kinetic Generator.
"Why can the industrial mod's EU energy be converted into energy usable in the real world, but real-world electricity can't be converted into the industrial mod's EU?"
"That makes no sense."
He had wanted Ivan to make more Arc Reactors and hook them straight up to a UU-Matter Fabricator, giving him all the UU-matter he could ever need.
But cold, hard reality had slammed straight into his face.
And it hurt like hell.
Still, for every scheme, there was a workaround.
A row of robots was hard at work cranking Manual Kinetic Generators connected to Kinetic Generators, producing 100 EU of energy with every turn.
Nuclear power? Advanced solar power? They were nothing compared with hand-cranked generators. The only concern was that cranking them drained a player's hunger at a tremendous rate. For the robots, that translated into a tremendous drain on the energy in their reactors.
Watching them produce 5,000 EU of electricity per second, Yang Bo was very satisfied.
"I still need to hurry up and make a Quantum Solar Generator, or all these robots of Ivan's will end up as decorations."
Yang Bo had tried it himself. Every ten turns cost him one hunger point, and once his hunger dropped below six, he could no longer use the thing.
He connected them directly to a UU-Matter Fabricator. That thing was an electricity hog.
It took a million units of electricity to produce
