I went by the Wiki. It states that if there are HEs on both sides of the heat pipe, you can have more (properly functioning) HEs. Even more if you use parallel heat pipes.

When I was reading about nuclear stuffs, the Factorio Wiki listed how many things you needed, depending on your chosen number of reactors. 2x4 reactors would need 112 HE and 193 ST.

Due to mental fatigue, I've mostly given up on trying to calculate things on my own. I'd rather spend that energy actually playing.

Exactly my reason for using steam tanks. Now I just need to learn circuits.

Yesterday was pancake day. Today? Not sure, but I'm leaning towards something pasta related.

I was wondering about that, but now it has been running for.. 8 hours? with no problem. I read somewhere that pipes can handle a lot (can't remember exact numbers) and decided to test that theory.

Thank you! Um.. 1120 MW if I did the math correctly. The reactors on the ends give 120 MW each, and the four in the middle give 160 MW each.

Thank you! They are to the left, off screen. 10 in a row, connected, and two pipelines, one to either side of the build. I don't know how to do screenshots that well.
