The Ray Receiver is a building used to collect power generated by a [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson Sphere/Swarm]]. The longer they are continuously in view of the swarm, the more efficient they become. | The Ray Receiver is a building used to collect power generated by a [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson Sphere/Swarm]].

Note: The technology [[Planetary Ionosphere Utilization_(Tech)|Planetary Ionosphere Utilization]] effectively removes the line-of-sight barrier to maintaining a continuous connection, presumably by bouncing the energy beams off of the planet's Ionosphere to reach the receiver wherever it may be. This is, in effect, the same way that Radio waves can travel over the horizon, on real-world Earth. | |||

* | * On planets with a low axial inclination, place Ray Receivers at their poles for maximum exposure & efficiency. The poles of these planets are always within line of sight to your Dyson Sphere/Swarm. | ||
* For planets with higher axial inclination, there is no such sweet spot. With the [[Planetary Ionosphere Utilization_(Tech)|Planetary Ionosphere Utilization]] Technology, however, the line of sight restriction is removed, and they can be placed anywhere. | |||
