Ok in the "Staus" on the harvestors(Talking AboutMineral Harvester, Never Used Chemical/Gas/Etc), There is a line I don't understand. Mantinacne is easy (IE: 6 days left). However the line that gets me is"


Power Reserve: 2443.9653 (1:37)


What do these values represent? I think the first set is the exact amount of pawer (2443 Units) that is in the harvestor. The "(1:37): , I have no clue.


Reason for asking is I set my harvestors to run for 3 days. I want to know how much power to put in the harvestor to mach that. IE: xxxx Units of wind power equals x:xx amount of time/days.


Thanks a lot.

I"m not sure what your number means because its not similar to what I get running the math. I think originally it was supposed to display days and hours, but for as long as I use them its only displaying total hours.


A harvester runs 25 power in one hour, so uses 600 units per day. If you put in 600 units you should get a number like :24 if you put in 1200 units you should get :48.


2444 units should run a harvester for ~98 hours.


If it rolls over 100 you get 1:00 normally. It is very possible that number means 137 hours and you are getting some kind of discount on usage for putting in so much power.

It's currently bugged, but it's days and hours, in a hours:minutes format.

so, 1:0 = 60 hours. Once you know what's going on, it's not that hard.

Ya that would make sense. 97 hours. 60 + 37. Not sure why 1: = 60 though. It's a play on the daily cost somehow.
