For all you pellet heads out there, here is some data I collected over several months of intensive pellet baking back in GT MOUL. I'm not sure it's very useful but it is interesting (to me al least
).
[spoiler]Code:
Pellet value Visual Result Tester Lake Effect KI Points
Result (Health) Points*
pellet <= 50 Steam/Bubble High 10% -60 to -50 0
50 > pellet <= 150 Steam/Bubble Med 20% -50 to -30 0
150 > pellet <= 250 Steam/Bubble Low 31% -30 to -10 0
250 > pellet <= 300 Dud 32% -10 to 0 0
300 > pellet <= 374 OG Low 40% 0 to 74 5 to 370
374 > pellet <= 449 OG Med 50% 75 to 149 357 to 745
449 > pellet <= 509 OG High 60% 150 to 200 to 173 714 to 1000 to 824
509 > pellet <= 570 WG 70% 170 to -10 850 to 0
570 > pellet <= 595 EXP Low 80% -13 to -85 0
595 > pellet <= 620 EXP Med 90% -88 to -160 0
620 > pellet EXP high 100% -163 to -200 0
* Health points are the effect on the lake algae. The goal was to increase the algae vitality to increase the level of light in the Cavern. The source of this information was removed with the release of Episode 8 of GT MOUL so it can no longer be found.
Notes:
High orange glow pellets' health points and KI points increase up to pellet value 500 (all ovens at 30-30-30 or other mixed settings) and then start to decrease thereafter.
All KI point values are jiggered by a percentage of 0% to -5% below the theoretical value. A theoretical value of 1000 KI points may produce a score of 950 to 1000. If you get a pellet score below 950, your settings are not optimum.
The Bahro formula 40-30-20 gives a max KI point score of 445 and 89 health points so you can safely dump them in the silo instead of disposing of them.
Oven 4 shorts out if set too high producing bad pellets. I don't remember which controls and what settings do this but I still have the data somewhere... something to do with the product of the time and temp setting not being more than some value.
