[RotaryCraft] Electric Motor + Electric Generator can produce small infinite energy if the numbers of Motors isn't matched

Might generate infinite power, will comment on this later when I test.


It generates more at 32 rad/s, and less at anything else.

~~If this is correct, it will generate free power.~~ It is wrong, but see the next comment.

Using 5 Electric Motors, one set to 2048 rad/s, the others max, I was able to generate 64000*4+16130 (64000 is the average power of the 4), or 272130 EU/t, which is more than 258110 EU/t.

Although small, it is infinite energy. Though the actual max consumption rate 64528 EU/t, which equals to 1/4 the generation rate of the Electric Generator here, I can actually power another Electric Motor for the underpower of the other 4, which actually results in more energy.


Despite having seen an old issue regarding EU -> Shaft Power -> EU is unbalanced, I think the issue here, although related to the same problem, are a bit different.

But still, one question, why does it generate more at 32 rad/s? The book mentions it nowhere.

This sounds like some kind of rounding issue.
