100 hours in, about to go to Aquilo, and now I figured out how easy it is.

Torn between feeling giddy and excited, and feeling like a huge idiot.

I’ll say this, keep solar as a backup, or way overbuild what you need on turbines. Low power, causing pump jacks and steam generation to slow, can cause a negative feedback loop and crash your power!

Why not use solar? It's still very efficient with higher solar output then other planets.

[–] Deestan 3 points 4 days ago

Solar is good! But it's still space consuming, and Vulcanus is a bit space constrained due to the lava.

I know right? My friend and I were like, wait? We can hook how many turbines to a Chem plant?
