Some important information on operating some machines and some essential tools.

Perhaps the most crucial of all the machines, engines are used to supply power. Each has their own torque and speed characteristic, but they all generally are high speed and low torque. Each engine also has its own requirements in terms of energy supply, and some engines have their own special quirks that it is wise to know.

The possibilities would be rather limited if power produced by the engines had to be consumed at the source. Fortunately, it is simple and easy to transport this power, almost losslessly, across any distance you care to. One important thing to note about many of these is that they are directional - they transmit power in only one direction. Machines will render a green cage around their input block(s) and a red one around their output block(s).

Machines are what actually use all this power generated by the engines. They vary in purpose and power requirements, and many of them, especially ones that perform distinct operations, will run faster at higher speeds.

These are the tools powered by wound-up coils. Their coil depletes slightly with each use. To recharge them, craft them with a new coil and you will get the old coil back, which can be used again.

These are the basic items required to craft nearly any machine.
