Okay,


This is gonna sound/be stupid, but how do these monsters work?


I know how to get a wind and solar to work, but what goes on with the Fusion reactor.


I am directing this in terms of, do I have to place this on a type of resource.? Do i have to mine the resource and bring it to the reactor? What are the output rates per input.?


The last part let me clarify. on a 20% slap of Solar concentration I can expect 2400 or so a day of power. What about the Fusion?



Thanks in advance for the help,

I usually don't settle for less than an 85% spot. And at that concentration I can pull in 15k power per day.


The material you are looking for is radioactive mineral (Found in Mineral Survey tool).

They work exactly like a Solar or Wind generator.


You place it on a resource(in this case you want radioactives on your mineral survey device) and it 'mines' that resource. All you have to give it is maintenence money(1440cr a day).


You get18720 a day on a 100% spot.

On a 62% spot a fusion produces more than a solar on a 100% spot.

And don't forget most radioactives have higher PE than solar or wind.

Out of curiosity. What does the Potential Energy rating affect? Other harvesters?

if its over 500 PE then you get a bonus to the amount of energy when you stick it in harvestors. Eg, if you have 1000 PE stuff, it would basically double the amount of energy being transferred (i think)
