Maximize Steam Boiler Output for Heavy Machinery

Understanding Boiler Levels

This mod raises the maximum boiler level cap significantly beyond Create's default, allowing your boilers to generate much more steam pressure. Higher-level boilers power demanding machinery and large factory setups more effectively.

Building a High-Output Boiler

1. Construct your boiler structure using boiler blocks in any custom size (not restricted to three-by-three)

2. Place heat sources—like lava or burners—directly beneath the boiler structure

3. The boiler level increases as heat accumulates; monitor the level indicator

4. Continue adding heat sources or upgrading them to reach higher boiler levels

5. Connect steam output pipes to your steam engines and machinery

6. Adjust the number of heat sources to maintain optimal steam pressure

Server Configuration

If playing on a server, administrators can raise the boiler capacity cap even higher through server settings, allowing for industrial-scale steam generation. Check with your server operator about these limits.
