More realistic steam engines. In reality they don't consume water (it gets re-used) and this mod tries to approximate this behaviour by using 1/100th the amount of water.

Small changes concerning balance, gameplay, or graphics.
The amount of coal needed to heat the water going through jumped from about 6-9 pieces, to over 50 pieces of coal. Loading the mod onto a save game, obliterated my coal lines.
Water also cools down much, much faster; after about 6 pipes, temp was down to around 76 degrees from 100
With a new game, it's near impossible to get the water to 100 without almost 70 pieces of coal.
Did some additional testing. At max power draw, the first boiler will attempt to continuously heat to 100 degrees, unlike normally capping at some range around 28-32 degrees, and then increment with each boiler.
Your mod some how modifies the boiler behavior, into requiring having only two boilers, three at most.
