TFFT

The TFFT is an HV tier multiblock for storing massive amounts of fluids. The TFFT is a direct upgrade from Railcraft Tanks because it can hold more fluid, supports up to 25 different types, and connects directly to an AE2 network to act as a large multi-fluid storage cell. The total fluid capacity of the machine depends on the number and tier of the storage field blocks within the structure. Each fluid can only occupy 1/25th of the total capacity even if their partition is full. The difference between the TFFT and the YOTTank is that the YOTTank stores only a single fluid and does not require any maintenance or power. Both multiblocks can be quite expensive so it is recommended to just use AE2 fluid cells instead.

The TFFT can be anywhere between 5 and 15 blocks long; the slice with the glass and storage field blocks can be repeated up to 13 times to increase the total fluid capacity of the machine. No air is allowed inside the structure and the storage field blocks must all be the same tier for the structure to form. The glass must be EV+ but otherwise has no effect on the machine. No energy hatch is necessary for T10 field storage blocks because it does not consume any power. Use the Multiblock Structure Hologram Projector to visualize/build the structure with subchannels "field" and "glass" to specify the tier of those components and subchannel "length" to determine the length.

Unique to the TFFT is the Multi I/O Hatch which provides input and output access to all fluids in the machine. Place a fluid storage bus on the hatch to connect the machine to an AE2 network. Without the Multi I/O Hatch, the TFFT can only output one fluid at a time based on the programmed circuit in the GUI of the controller. Use a Portable Scanner to determine which number is associated with each fluid. If no programmed circuit is present then it outputs the first available fluid. Only one Multi I/O Hatch is allowed per TFFT but it satisfies all hatch requirements.

Wallsharing

TFFTs may wallshare each of their sides to save on casings, glass, and buses/hatches. That includes the Multi I/O Hatch for sharing fluids to an AE2 network.

There are 10 tiers of field storage blocks available for the TFFT. Each tier significantly increases the capacity of the field storage block, but also the energy consumption of the machine. The total fluid capacity and energy consumption of the TFFT is the sum of the field storage blocks' individual values for those parameters. Fluids may only occupy 1/25th of the total capacity even if their partition is full--they CANNOT overflow to a second partition. Right-click the controller with a screwdriver to enable excess voiding. Scan the controller with a Portable Scanner to see the total fluid capacity, the per-fluid capacity, and the total energy consumption of the machine, or use one of the tables below.

Running out of power does NOT void the fluids inside. All it does is prevent the input and output of fluids. An ME fluid storage bus can still read the current fluid levels inside the machine but they cannot be interacted with until power is restored.
