Speed Upgrade
A Mekanism machine upgrade to make them process items faster each Mekanism machine can store 8 of these upgrades.
HINT: upgrade your power setup before upgrading your machines, as the power usage per tick begins to escalate with every energy upgrade applied, requiring more power to complete a single machine process.
HINT: (For machines that use gasses) Machines consume gasses based on how long they are running. that means using speed upgrades will increase the gas efficiency.
This is just an example of the power scaling, showing how the basic starting machines scale. More complex machines scale even higher.
- 1 Energy Upgrade: 50 j/t
- 2 Energy Upgrades: 88 j/t
- 3 Energy Upgrades: 158 j/t
- 4 Energy Upgrades: 281 j/t
- 5 Energy Upgrades: 500 j/t
- 6 Energy Upgrades: 889 j/t
- 7 Energy Upgrades: 1.58 kj/t
- 8 Energy Upgrades: 2.81 kj/t
- 9 Energy Upgrades: 5.00 kj/t
Heres a table of the increase of speed versus the amount of upgrades:
| Speed Indicated | Absolute Speed (20 ticks = 1 sec) | Relative Speed | Power Usage | Total Power Usage for each Operation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| x1 | 200 ticks | 100% | 50 j/t | 10 000 j |
| x2 | 149 ticks | 134.2% | 88 j/t | 13 112 j |
| x3 | 112 ticks | 178.6% | 158 j/t | 17 696 j |
| x4 | 84 ticks | 238.1% | 281 j/t | 23 604 j |
| x5 | 63 ticks | 317.5% | 500 j/t | 31 500 j |
| x6 | 47 ticks | 425.5% | 889 j/t | 41 783 j |
| x7 | 35 ticks | 571.4% | 1 580 j/t | 55 300 j |
| x8 | 26 ticks | 769.2% | 2 810 j/t | 73 060 j |
| x9 | 20 ticks | 1000% | 5 000 j/t | 100 000 j |
note that every speed upgrade makes the machine 33% faster
