Work in progress, I lost stacks and stacks of iron in a rollback, gotta get more: http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/1091/20120417160244.png
Wow ... one question guys... What do you want with that much UU Matter? I made one without scrap needed (powered by wind) and i have enough diamonds for future projects... I wish i could make iron with it, though.
Approximately 1 UU/10-11 seconds, so about 6/minute. I had setup a system in the Nether, and had about 4 rows of a doublechest with UU matter. I have since used up every bit of it, creating a ton of Tin, Copper, and about a stack of Diamonds, in addition to a single set of Quantum Armor. And I still have many more uses for that raw material. It reduces the need for mining if your UU Matter supply is steady and significant, and enables production of some grand-scale buildings, which I intend to make. My Industrial complex is actually fairly sprawling already, easily covering a 100x100 area and it will only grow larger. I have a skyscraper planned, and I will probably make several of those, possibly even setup apartment buildings with house-size apartments and whatnot for people. Or for ghosts, since the server isn't THAT populated... Also a Colosseum, rail network for my city (perhaps larger?) and a few other projects. I actually am going to redesign my Water Mill blocks a bit, as I need to throw in a buffer chest somewhere. I've had a number of clogging issues, and the chest would end that. Fortunately, I have space.
Nice. Before the reset, when we had HV arrays, millfreedom constructed a system (which I assisted with) a system that generated more than 1 UU/second once we gathered ~18 HV arrays. We were using the UU in a solar panel production facility. EDIT: It produced this amount of UU w/o Scrap! With scrap it would have produced much more. We did have a scarp factory set up, but the amount of cobblestone travelling through pneumatic tubes caused frequent disconnections for me due to high bandwidth usage, so it had to be disabled.
There are two ways. Either create iron directly from UU, only getting 2 ore per raft OR you can create tin, getting 5 ore per craft for 3 UU, craft into buckets and use RP2 Blulectric Alloy furnace to smelt into iron.
Yes. Resmelting with a RP2 Blulectric Alloy Furnace will net you significantly ore Iron by making Tin from UU than making Iron directly.
