Translations:Shaft Power/4/en

Shaft Power is generated by Engines. Each Engine has a known Torque it outputs and a known Speed it outputs it at, which combine to form the known total Power the engine outputs. Likewise, all machines that consume Shaft Power have certain minimum Power requirements. Most machines require a minimum of two of the three factors, and if those minimum requirements are not met the machine will not run. In RotaryCraft, having an insufficient Speed or Torque to run a machine is common. can take the power from a Shaft and change the ratio of Torque to Speed without losing Power in the change. Gearboxes are necessary at all stages of RotaryCraft progression: at first to activate machines, and later to power them up. Many other tech mods' machines can be upgraded in some way to increase their speed at the cost of more power. In RotaryCraft, many machines will do that on their own if they are given higher Speeds than their minimum requirements. Generally, each time Speed is doubled, each action taken by the machine will happen 1–3 seconds faster, starting at 20–60 seconds, but eventually scaling down to 1 tick per action if enough power is given.
