KS Power Rebalancing

TL/DR:

Overall more reasonable pollution
Solid burner efficiency is now less terrible
Diesel = best energy density
Gas = lowest pollution
Oil boilers are viable at scale (low pollution)
Solid fuels have emission multipliers (higher tiers = lower emissions)
Quality now affects temperature, pollution and efficiency

Long version:

Fuel Values/Emissions:
Crude Oil 1.4 MJ -> 0.48 MJ / 1.4 -> 1.4
Light Oil 1.5 MJ -> 1.08 MJ / 1.2 -> 1.1
Heavy Oil 1.0 MJ -> 0.60 MJ / 1.3 -> 1.3
Petro Gas 1.5 MJ -> 0.90 MJ / 1.0 -> 0.45
Diesel 2.0 MJ -> 1.50 MJ / 0.8 -> 0.7

Non-fluid Emissions (instead of 1.0):

Wood 1.1, Coal 1.0, Solid fuel 0.9, Rocket fuel 0.8, Nuclear fuel 0.7

Solid fuel fuel value 12 MJ -> 10.8 MJ
Diesel fuel recipe now takes 10 Petroleum gas instead of 20

Entities:

... Small Burner:

Efficiency: 25% -> 70%
Emissions: 60/MW -> 22/MW
Power: 0.5 MW -> 0.7 MW

... Big Burner:

Efficiency: 50% -> 80%
Emissions: 20/MW -> 18/MW

... Diesel Generator:

Efficiency: 100% -> 85%
Emissions: 12.5/MW -> 8.25/MW (multiplied with fuel emissions)
4 MW Power only with Diesel fuel, less dense fuel types = less power and emissions

... Oil Boiler:

Still 100% efficiency
Emissions: 7.4/MW -> 3.7/MW (multiplied with fuel emissions)
Now only needs 2 steam engines or 1 steam turbine instead of +1 each (165 -> 240° temperature)

... Steam Engine:

Now accepts 240° hot steam instead of 165. With vanilla boilers it may not appear saturated because those only produce 165° hot steam, but they still produce the same with them

... Other Changes:
Optional: Disabled wind turbine (k2-wind-turbine looks better, or my "windturbines" mod is more realistic. pick one of those)
Optional: Burner Cars and tanks and hovercrafts pollute 1/20000 of their base fuel consumption per minute. 600kW -> 30 pollution/min for example (tank)
Optional: Trains (seperate setting) pollute 25 per minute (15 for diesel trains if that mod ever gets updated)
Pollution stays the same on higher quality machines with higher power output
Fuel efficiency increases by 15% per quality level
On vanilla boilers and oil boilers, increases the target temperature by 30% per quality level (requires steam turbines to take advantage of the increased power output)

Example calculations:

Vanilla boiler (unchanged)

provides 1.8 MW for 1.8 MW fuel consumption. Pollution: 16.66/MW

Big burner

provides 50 MW for 62.5 MW fuel consumption. Pollution = 18/MW

Burner

provides 0.7 MW for 1 MW fuel consumption. Pollution = 22/MW

Diesel Generator

Light Oil: 2.9 MW for 3.13 fluid/s. Pollution: 9.1/MW
Diesel: 4 MW for 3.13 fluid/s. Pollution: 5.82/MW
Gas: 2.4 MW for 3.13 fluid/s. Pollution: 3.75/MW

Oil Boiler:

Light Oil: 2.7 MW for 2.5 fluid/s. Pollution: 4.07/MW
Diesel: 2.7 MW for 1.8 fluid/s. Pollution: 2.58/MW
Gas: 2.7 MW for 3 fluid/s. Pollution: 1.66/MW

Since 2.0, i've invested an unreasonable amount of time in my mods again. (plus over 2000 hours before)
