Mathematically 1 million atomic converters use 1 million times more energy than one of them, but also convert 1 million times as fast. So for example you're using 1 million times more energy to make a 2 second conversion into a 2 microsecond conversion, so you should avoid terraformed converters earlier in the game.

Later in the game, when you get lots of stone, you'll start to see it makes sense.

Yeah, I don't have a problem with that bit, but they shouldn't also convert 1 million times less? 

Like it's offering me to spend a ridiculous amount of energy to generate like 30kg of Titanium when I can produce in the billions of kg (I think G is billions?) of Titanium already by other means. Sure, it's fast, but what is that amount going to do for me?

I think you're right, the math is actually wrong, I assumed that if you put in 10M kg into 1M converters, each converter would get 10 kg but would still cost as if you put in 10M kg in each converter, which explains the high energy cost. If that's how I coded it, I'm ashamed of myself, lol.  I'll double check. Thanks for pointing that out!
