Well the nether brick factory is operational. Kinda leaves a lot to be desired at the moment, in particular one cobblegen is really too slow to be doing much of anything. However it's all the gasonline generator could power, even at 64 rpm. Guess I'll just put some passive steam in and maybe one of those cheaty contraption cobblegens.
I honestly can't get over how anti-user those stupid diesel generators are. You're asking for a complete oil setup with pumpjacks and distillation towers, load of work, and then you give these shitty blocks that can't suck their own fuel out of a tank and can't set the output speed. And give less than power than a passive steam setup which is literally free and doesn't even require brass.
