Penrose Sphere

The Penrose Sphere is a late-game multiblock power generator that filled with Super Singularities converts matter into Forge Energy. It is a very scalable power source.


How It Works

  1. Insert Storage Cell

    • Only accepts 1k Storage Cells containing only Super Singularities.
    • Insert into the left slot (disk slot).
  2. Insert Super Singularities

    • Place Super Singularities into the right slot (input) and click the arrow button to store/extract singularities from/to the cell.
    • The more super singularities are inside the cell, the more power multiblock will generate.
  3. Set Target Resource

    • Use the config slot to choose a target item (e.g., Cobblestone, Singularity or Matter Ball).
    • This determines how much energy is produced.
  4. Automatic Power Generation

    • Every tick, the controller consumes the target item from your ME network.
    • Generates FE based on the amount of Super Singularities in the disk.
    • Power is accessible from any Penrose Frame block.
    • All Power Ports are actively exporting the power to adjacent blocks.
  5. Upgrades

    • It has 4 tiers, each next tier adds +1 storage cell slot, meaning you can insert more singularities, and make more power.
    • Each tier additionally boosts the power gen by x2.

Power Output

  • Minimum is close to 0, with 1 super singularity and with "normal" item as input.
  • Matter Balls and Singularities increase output:
    • +8x if Matter Ball is selected
    • +64x if AE2 Singularity is selected
  • Max power: ~1'000MFE/t (4x mek fusion) (with a full 4 cells and singularities as fuel)

Notes

  • Multiblock must be complete to function.
  • Controller stores power internally.
  • Energy can be extracted from any Penrose Frame block.
  • Energy is being actively exported from any Penrose Port block.
  • Compatible with any FE-based system.
  • Can charge your ME network as well as anything that accepts FE.
