Trying to get my head around the new Boilers and Steam Engines, and trying to figure out effective layouts, but there doesn't seem much info out there, Goolgling for stuff just brings me endless now unhelpful ideas about how it all worked in 0.14.x and before. The wiki is no help, it's still very 0.14.x focused... I searched here (on this forum) too and couldn't find anything, although if no ones talked about it yet I would be surprised.
So I learned from watching Zeisteu's play through of 0.15.x that 1 boiler can power 2 steam engines, is that correct?
What idea's have people come up with for layouts?
0.15.x Steam Power layouts
Re: 0.15.x Steam Power layouts
1 boiler can power 2 steam engines
1 pump can feed water to 20 boilers (or 40 steam engines if you wish)
boiler layout is lot bigger than in 0.14 which you already figured out.
and there are posts on forums discussing this, including coal consumption and other stuff.
for example this one

Re: 0.15.x Steam Power layouts
This is my first go at a 0.15.x powergen layout, I've built it inside a Mk1 Factorissimo2 factory building, I will expand on the design when I get access to the later game factories.
