Phoenixx: /* List of Fuels */

Dyson Sphere Program's main focus is power generation; as such, there are a plethora of different ways of generating power in the game, ranging from the humble [[Wind Turbine|wind turbine]] you start with, to [[Mini Fusion Power Station|fusion generators]], [[Artificial Star|artificial stars]], and, of course, the Dyson Sphere itself. Some of these generators and your mech, Icarus, run on one or more different fuels. This page lists all fuels in the game and Their stats.

==Fuel stats==
All fuels have two stats: '''Energy''', and '''Fuel chamber gen.'''

'''Energy''' is the total energy each item contains. When used in Icarus, the [[Mini Fusion Power Station]] and the [[Artificial Star]], this is the total energy it generates. [[Thermal Power Station|Thermal Power Stations]] incur a 20% energy loss for all fuels they use.

'''Fuel chamber gen.''' marks how quickly Icarus' reactor core converts the fuel. This only changes how fast energy is recharged, not how much total energy is produced. Note that [[Coal]] with 0% is the only fuel that matches your [[Energy Circuit (Upgrade)|Energy Circuit]] upgrade level. Both positive and negative percentages are relative to this. For instance, both a [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod]] and the 5 [[Hydrogen]] it requires to produce contain a total of 54MJ, but the fuel rod has a Fuel chamber gen. of +200% instead of the +100% of regular hydrogen, meaning you will use the fuel rod 50% faster (300% total charge rate compared to 200%) than the regular hydrogen and therefore recharge energy 50% faster. The time fuel lasts, and your recovery speed, both depend on your [[Energy Circuit (Upgrade)|Energy Circuit]] upgrade level.

The "fuel chamber gen." stat only affects Icarus; it has no effect on [[Thermal Power Plant|Thermal Power Plants]].

===Burn Time===
Burn Time is calculated with the following formula:
<pre>(Energy * Efficiency) / Rate == burn time (in seconds)</pre>
Energy is the amount of energy stored in the fuel, in Joules.<br>
Efficiency is the conversion efficiency of the generator burning the fuel. For a [[Thermal Power Station]], this is 0.8 (80%).<br>
Rate is the rate at which the generator is supplying power (in Watts) to the grid.

Example: To calculate the burn time of 1 Energetic Graphite in 1 thermal power generator at 100% load:
<pre>Energy * Efficiency / Rate == burn time (in seconds)
(6.3 MJ * 0.8) / 2.16MW == 2.333 seconds
</pre>

The table below has been calculated at 100% load for all fuels/generators. Fuel <em>typically</em> takes longer than this to burn in practice, because it is abnormal to keep a power grid at 100% load at all times.

==Efficient Power Production==
The following chapters describe by example the best ways to utilize the different basic fuel resources [[Coal]], [[Crude Oil]], and [[Fire Ice]], taking the power consumption of required buildings like smelters, refineries, sorters etc. into account.

===Coal vs. Energetic Graphite===
====Assumptions====
*Four [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]], each covering 6 Coal Veins.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Coal====
*Coal production: 24 Veins * 0.5 Coal/s = 12 Coal/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 12 Coal/s: 12 * 2.7 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 12 Stations.
*Power production: 12 Stations * 2.16 MW = 25.92 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 12 * 18 kW = 0.216 MW.
*Net power production: 25.92 MW - 1.68 MW - 0.216 MW = '''24.024 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite====
*Smelting 12 Coal/s needs 12 Smelters, and results in 6 Graphite/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 6 Graphite/s: 6 * 6.75 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 15 Stations.
*Power production: 15 Stations * 2.16 MW = 32.4 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
# Smelters: 12 * 360 kW = 4.32 MW.
#Sorters (2 per Smelter, 1 per Station): 39 * 18 kW = 0.702 MW.
*Net power production: 32.4 MW - 1.68 MW - 4.32 MW - 0.702 MW = '''25.698 MW'''.

=== Burning Combustible Unit ===
*Smelting 12 Coal/s needs 12 Smelters, and results in 4 Combustible Units/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 6 Combustible Unit/s: 4 * 9.72 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 14.4 Stations.
*Power production: 14.4 Stations * 2.16 MW = 31.104 MW.
*Power consumption:

1. Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
2. Smelters: 12 * 360 kW = 4.32 MW.
3. Sorters (2 per Smelter, 1 per Station): 39 * 18 kW = 0.702 MW.

*Net power production: 31.104 MW - 1.68 MW - 4.32 MW - 0.702 MW = '''24.402 MW'''.

====Conclusion====
The increased effort of smelting Energetic Graphite from Coal results in ~1.7 MW more net power production.
*Coal: 24.024 MW
*Energetic Graphite: 25.698 MW
*Combustible Unit: 24.402 MW.

===Crude Oil vs. Refined Oil vs. X-Ray Cracking vs. Hydrogen Fuel Rods===
[[Crude Oil]] can be converted to [[Refined Oil]] and [[Hydrogen]]. Using the [[X-Ray Cracking]] recipe, this can be converted into [[Energetic Graphite]] and Hydrogen. Finally, Hydrogen and [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium Ingots]] can be crafted into [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]].

====Energy change from conversion ====
As for Coal-to-Energetic-Graphite above, we can do some quick math of the energy difference from converting the different stages of fuel to their next possible outcome. Note that for each case, if your system is not perfectly balanced to maximize factory usage, each second spent idle is extra energy lost and the results given are only an upper bound of the best you could get, but you most likely will get less.

*'''Crude Oil to Refined Oil''' and Hydrogen for 1 [[Oil Refinery]] and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (8MJ + 2 * 4.4MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 4MJ) * 0.8 - (960kW + 4.1 * 18kW) * 4s = +2.9048MJ or +726.2kW.
*'''Refined Oil to Hydrogen and Graphite''' for 1 Oil Refinery and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (8MJ + 6.3MJ) * 0.8 - (4.4MJ) * 0.8 - (960kW + 6.25 * 18 kW) * 4s = +3.63MJ or +907.5kW.
*'''Hydrogen and Titanium Ore to Hydrogen Fuel Rods''' for 1 Smelter and 2 [[Assembling Machine Mk.I|Assembling Machines Mk.I]] and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (50MJ) * 0.8 - (5 * 8MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 270kW + 360kW + 6.25 * 18kW) * 4s = +3.95MJ or +987.5kW.

====Assumptions ====
*One Crude Oil Seep producing 1.5 Oil/s.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Crude Oil====
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Oil/s: 1.5 * 4 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power production: 2 Stations * 2.16 MW = 4.32 MW.
*Power consumption:
#[[Oil Extractor]]: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 2 * 18 kW = 0.036 MW.
*Net power production: 4.32 MW - 0.84 MW - 0.036 MW = '''3.444 MW'''.

====Burning Refined Oil and Hydrogen====
*Refining 1.5 Crude Oil/s needs 3 Oil Refineries, and results in 1.5 Refined Oil/s and 0.75 Hydrogen/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Refined Oil/s: 1.5 * 4.4 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 0.75 Hydrogen/s: 0.75 * 8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power production: 4 Stations * 2.16 MW = 8.64 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Oil Refineries: 3 * 960 kW = 2.88 MW.
# Sorters (3 per Refinery, 1 per Station): 13 * 18 kW = 0.234 MW.
*Net power production: 8.64 MW - 0.84 MW - 2.88 MW - 0.234 MW = '''4.686 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite and Hydrogen (X-Ray Cracking) ====
*Cracking 1.5 Refined Oil/s needs 6 Oil Refineries, and results in 1.5 Graphite/s and 1.5 extra Hydrogen/s (2.25 Hydrogen/s in total).
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Graphite/s: 1.5 * 6.3 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 3 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 2.25 Hydrogen/s: 2.25 * 8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 6 Stations.
*Power production: 9 Stations * 2.16 MW = 19.44 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Oil Refineries: 9 * 960 kW = 8.64 MW.
#Sorters (3 per Refined Oil, 4 per X-Ray, 1 per Station): 42 * 18 kW = 0.756 MW.
*Net power production: 19.44 MW - 0.84 MW - 8.64 MW - 0.756 MW = '''9.204 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite and Hydrogen Fuel Rods (With X-Ray Cracking)====
*Crafting [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]] from 2.25 Hydrogen/s needs 2 [[Assembling Machine Mk.I|Assemblers]], and results in 0.45 Fuel Rods/s (5 Hydrogen per Fuel Rod).
*Smelting the required 0.45 [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium Ingots]]/s for the Fuel Rods needs 1 Smelter (max. output 0.5 ingots/s). It consumes 0.9 [[Titanium Ore]]/s which can be mined by 1 Mining Machine covering 2 Titanium Ore Veins.
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Graphite/s: 1.5 * 6.3 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 3 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 0.45 Fuel Rods/s: 0.45 * 50 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 8 Stations.
*Power production: 11 Stations * 2.16 MW = 23.76 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
# Oil Refineries: 9 * 960 kW = 8.64 MW.
#Mining Machines: 1 * 420 kW = 0.42 MW.
#Smelters: 1 * 360 kW = 0.36 MW.
# Assemblers: 2 * 270 kW = 0.54 MW.
#Sorters (3 per Refined Oil, 4 per X-Ray, 2 per Smelter, 3 per Assembler, 1 per Station): 52 * 18 kW = 0.936 MW.
* Net power production: 23.76 MW - 0.84 MW - 8.64 MW - 0.42 MW - 0.36 MW - 0.54 MW - 0.936 MW = '''12.024 MW'''.

====Conclusion====
Each step in the production chain increases the net power production.
*Crude Oil: 3.444 MW.
*Refined Oil: 4.686 MW.
*X-Ray Cracking: 9.204 MW.
*Hydrogen Fuel Rods: 12.024 MW.

===Fire Ice vs. Hydrogen vs. Hydrogen Fuel Rods===
[[Fire Ice]] could be converted to [[Hydrogen]] or [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]].

====Energy change from conversion ====

*'''Fire Ice to Hydrogen and Graphene''' for 1 [[Chemical Plant]] and extra sorters '''without burning the graphene''' over 2 seconds: (8MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 4.8MJ) * 0.8 - (720kW + 2.42 * 18kW) * 2s = -2.807MJ or -1.404MW.

*'''Fire Ice to Hydrogen and Graphene''' for 1 Chemical Plant and extra sorters '''when burning the graphene''' over 2 seconds: (8MJ + 2 * 96kW) * 0.8 - (2 * 4.8MJ) * 0.8 - (720kW + 2.42 * 18kW) * 2s = -2.730MJ or -1.365MW.
*'''Hydrogen and Titanium Ore to Hydrogen Fuel Rods''': check the line above made for the crude oil section.

====Assumptions====
*Four [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]], each covering 6 Fire Ice Veins.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Fire Ice====
*Fire Ice production: 24 Veins * 0.5 Fire Ice/s = 12 Fire Ice/s.
*Power Stations needed to burn 12 Fire Ice/s: 12 * 4.8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 21 Stations.
*Power production: 21 Stations * 2.16 MW = 45.36 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 21 * 18 kW = 0.378 MW.
*Net power production: 45.36 MW - 1.68 MW - 0.378 MW = '''43.302 MW'''.

====Burning Hydrogen====
2 Fire Ice (9.6 MJ) can be converted to 1 [[Hydrogen]] (8 MJ) and 2 [[Graphene]] (0.192 MJ) which is already a loss of energy without taking any buildings into account.

====Burning Hydrogen Fuel Rods ====
*Crafting Hydrogen from 12 Fire Ice/s needs 12 [[Chemical Plant|Chemical Plants]], and results in 6 Hydrogen/s and 12 Graphene/s.
*Crafting Hydrogen Fuel Rods from 6 Hydrogen/s results in 1.2 Fuel Rods/s and 12 Graphene/s.
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.2 Fuel Rods/s: 1.2 * 50 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 22 Stations (one more than needed for burning Fire Ice).
*The produced Graphene cannot satisfy a single Power Station: 12 * 0.096 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = (exactly) 0.43 Stations.
* The 1.43 extra Power Stations produce 3.08 MW more power, compared to burning Fire Ice directly.
*The 12 Chemical Plants needed to produce Hydrogen already consume 12 * 720 kW = 8.64 MW.

====Conclusion====
Burning Fire Ice directly in the Thermal Power Station is more efficient than converting it to Hydrogen or Hydrogen Fuel Rods. Unless you need extra graphene from Fire Ice, this is highly discouraged.

|Mining Coal on decent sized Coal Vein may give you around 18 coal/second, requiring 18 Power Stations to burn and producing 36MW net power.

Since low power in grid will slow down the miners, it may be better to use separate power network for miners

Solar is decent early/mid-game power source, easily scalable to ~500MW on a planet.

Most obvious layouts are building circles on both poles or 4-wide strip on the equator.

By standing on the pole and with using god-build-mode(Settings/Gameplay) you may place Solar Panels at 5/second (~3sec per 15-long row).

To build Solar Panels on poles without overlaying errors while building a long row, place first panel 2 tiles from pole.

Phoenixx: /* List of Fuels */ add Proliferators

Dyson Sphere Program's main focus is power generation; as such, there are a plethora of different ways of generating power in the game, ranging from the humble [[Wind Turbine|wind turbine]] you start with, to [[Mini Fusion Power Station|fusion generators]], [[Artificial Star|artificial stars]], and, of course, the Dyson Sphere itself. Some of these generators and your mech, Icarus, run on one or more different fuels. This page lists all fuels in the game and Their stats.

==Fuel stats==
All fuels have two stats: '''Energy''', and '''Fuel chamber gen.'''

'''Energy''' is the total energy each item contains. When used in Icarus, the [[Mini Fusion Power Station]] and the [[Artificial Star]], this is the total energy it generates. [[Thermal Power Station|Thermal Power Stations]] incur a 20% energy loss for all fuels they use.

'''Fuel chamber gen.''' marks how quickly Icarus' reactor core converts the fuel. This only changes how fast energy is recharged, not how much total energy is produced. Note that [[Coal]] with 0% is the only fuel that matches your [[Energy Circuit (Upgrade)|Energy Circuit]] upgrade level. Both positive and negative percentages are relative to this. For instance, both a [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod]] and the 5 [[Hydrogen]] it requires to produce contain a total of 54MJ, but the fuel rod has a Fuel chamber gen. of +200% instead of the +100% of regular hydrogen, meaning you will use the fuel rod 50% faster (300% total charge rate compared to 200%) than the regular hydrogen and therefore recharge energy 50% faster. The time fuel lasts, and your recovery speed, both depend on your [[Energy Circuit (Upgrade)|Energy Circuit]] upgrade level.

The "fuel chamber gen." stat only affects Icarus; it has no effect on [[Thermal Power Plant|Thermal Power Plants]].

===Burn Time===
Burn Time is calculated with the following formula:
<pre>(Energy * Efficiency) / Rate == burn time (in seconds)</pre>
Energy is the amount of energy stored in the fuel, in Joules.<br>
Efficiency is the conversion efficiency of the generator burning the fuel. For a [[Thermal Power Station]], this is 0.8 (80%).<br>
Rate is the rate at which the generator is supplying power (in Watts) to the grid.

Example: To calculate the burn time of 1 Energetic Graphite in 1 thermal power generator at 100% load:
<pre>Energy * Efficiency / Rate == burn time (in seconds)
(6.3 MJ * 0.8) / 2.16MW == 2.333 seconds
</pre>

The table below has been calculated at 100% load for all fuels/generators. Fuel <em>typically</em> takes longer than this to burn in practice, because it is abnormal to keep a power grid at 100% load at all times.

==Efficient Power Production==
The following chapters describe by example the best ways to utilize the different basic fuel resources [[Coal]], [[Crude Oil]], and [[Fire Ice]], taking the power consumption of required buildings like smelters, refineries, sorters etc. into account.

===Coal vs. Energetic Graphite===
====Assumptions====
*Four [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]], each covering 6 Coal Veins.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Coal====
*Coal production: 24 Veins * 0.5 Coal/s = 12 Coal/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 12 Coal/s: 12 * 2.7 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 12 Stations.
*Power production: 12 Stations * 2.16 MW = 25.92 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 12 * 18 kW = 0.216 MW.
*Net power production: 25.92 MW - 1.68 MW - 0.216 MW = '''24.024 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite====
*Smelting 12 Coal/s needs 12 Smelters, and results in 6 Graphite/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 6 Graphite/s: 6 * 6.75 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 15 Stations.
*Power production: 15 Stations * 2.16 MW = 32.4 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
# Smelters: 12 * 360 kW = 4.32 MW.
#Sorters (2 per Smelter, 1 per Station): 39 * 18 kW = 0.702 MW.
*Net power production: 32.4 MW - 1.68 MW - 4.32 MW - 0.702 MW = '''25.698 MW'''.

=== Burning Combustible Unit ===
*Smelting 12 Coal/s needs 12 Smelters, and results in 4 Combustible Units/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 6 Combustible Unit/s: 4 * 9.72 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 14.4 Stations.
*Power production: 14.4 Stations * 2.16 MW = 31.104 MW.
*Power consumption:

1. Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
2. Smelters: 12 * 360 kW = 4.32 MW.
3. Sorters (2 per Smelter, 1 per Station): 39 * 18 kW = 0.702 MW.

*Net power production: 31.104 MW - 1.68 MW - 4.32 MW - 0.702 MW = '''24.402 MW'''.

====Conclusion====
The increased effort of smelting Energetic Graphite from Coal results in ~1.7 MW more net power production.
*Coal: 24.024 MW
*Energetic Graphite: 25.698 MW
*Combustible Unit: 24.402 MW.

===Crude Oil vs. Refined Oil vs. X-Ray Cracking vs. Hydrogen Fuel Rods===
[[Crude Oil]] can be converted to [[Refined Oil]] and [[Hydrogen]]. Using the [[X-Ray Cracking]] recipe, this can be converted into [[Energetic Graphite]] and Hydrogen. Finally, Hydrogen and [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium Ingots]] can be crafted into [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]].

====Energy change from conversion ====
As for Coal-to-Energetic-Graphite above, we can do some quick math of the energy difference from converting the different stages of fuel to their next possible outcome. Note that for each case, if your system is not perfectly balanced to maximize factory usage, each second spent idle is extra energy lost and the results given are only an upper bound of the best you could get, but you most likely will get less.

*'''Crude Oil to Refined Oil''' and Hydrogen for 1 [[Oil Refinery]] and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (8MJ + 2 * 4.4MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 4MJ) * 0.8 - (960kW + 4.1 * 18kW) * 4s = +2.9048MJ or +726.2kW.
*'''Refined Oil to Hydrogen and Graphite''' for 1 Oil Refinery and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (8MJ + 6.3MJ) * 0.8 - (4.4MJ) * 0.8 - (960kW + 6.25 * 18 kW) * 4s = +3.63MJ or +907.5kW.
*'''Hydrogen and Titanium Ore to Hydrogen Fuel Rods''' for 1 Smelter and 2 [[Assembling Machine Mk.I|Assembling Machines Mk.I]] and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (50MJ) * 0.8 - (5 * 8MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 270kW + 360kW + 6.25 * 18kW) * 4s = +3.95MJ or +987.5kW.

====Assumptions ====
*One Crude Oil Seep producing 1.5 Oil/s.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Crude Oil====
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Oil/s: 1.5 * 4 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power production: 2 Stations * 2.16 MW = 4.32 MW.
*Power consumption:
#[[Oil Extractor]]: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 2 * 18 kW = 0.036 MW.
*Net power production: 4.32 MW - 0.84 MW - 0.036 MW = '''3.444 MW'''.

====Burning Refined Oil and Hydrogen====
*Refining 1.5 Crude Oil/s needs 3 Oil Refineries, and results in 1.5 Refined Oil/s and 0.75 Hydrogen/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Refined Oil/s: 1.5 * 4.4 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 0.75 Hydrogen/s: 0.75 * 8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power production: 4 Stations * 2.16 MW = 8.64 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Oil Refineries: 3 * 960 kW = 2.88 MW.
# Sorters (3 per Refinery, 1 per Station): 13 * 18 kW = 0.234 MW.
*Net power production: 8.64 MW - 0.84 MW - 2.88 MW - 0.234 MW = '''4.686 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite and Hydrogen (X-Ray Cracking) ====
*Cracking 1.5 Refined Oil/s needs 6 Oil Refineries, and results in 1.5 Graphite/s and 1.5 extra Hydrogen/s (2.25 Hydrogen/s in total).
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Graphite/s: 1.5 * 6.3 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 3 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 2.25 Hydrogen/s: 2.25 * 8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 6 Stations.
*Power production: 9 Stations * 2.16 MW = 19.44 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Oil Refineries: 9 * 960 kW = 8.64 MW.
#Sorters (3 per Refined Oil, 4 per X-Ray, 1 per Station): 42 * 18 kW = 0.756 MW.
*Net power production: 19.44 MW - 0.84 MW - 8.64 MW - 0.756 MW = '''9.204 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite and Hydrogen Fuel Rods (With X-Ray Cracking)====
*Crafting [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]] from 2.25 Hydrogen/s needs 2 [[Assembling Machine Mk.I|Assemblers]], and results in 0.45 Fuel Rods/s (5 Hydrogen per Fuel Rod).
*Smelting the required 0.45 [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium Ingots]]/s for the Fuel Rods needs 1 Smelter (max. output 0.5 ingots/s). It consumes 0.9 [[Titanium Ore]]/s which can be mined by 1 Mining Machine covering 2 Titanium Ore Veins.
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Graphite/s: 1.5 * 6.3 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 3 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 0.45 Fuel Rods/s: 0.45 * 50 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 8 Stations.
*Power production: 11 Stations * 2.16 MW = 23.76 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
# Oil Refineries: 9 * 960 kW = 8.64 MW.
#Mining Machines: 1 * 420 kW = 0.42 MW.
#Smelters: 1 * 360 kW = 0.36 MW.
# Assemblers: 2 * 270 kW = 0.54 MW.
#Sorters (3 per Refined Oil, 4 per X-Ray, 2 per Smelter, 3 per Assembler, 1 per Station): 52 * 18 kW = 0.936 MW.
* Net power production: 23.76 MW - 0.84 MW - 8.64 MW - 0.42 MW - 0.36 MW - 0.54 MW - 0.936 MW = '''12.024 MW'''.

====Conclusion====
Each step in the production chain increases the net power production.
*Crude Oil: 3.444 MW.
*Refined Oil: 4.686 MW.
*X-Ray Cracking: 9.204 MW.
*Hydrogen Fuel Rods: 12.024 MW.

===Fire Ice vs. Hydrogen vs. Hydrogen Fuel Rods===
[[Fire Ice]] could be converted to [[Hydrogen]] or [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]].

====Energy change from conversion ====

*'''Fire Ice to Hydrogen and Graphene''' for 1 [[Chemical Plant]] and extra sorters '''without burning the graphene''' over 2 seconds: (8MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 4.8MJ) * 0.8 - (720kW + 2.42 * 18kW) * 2s = -2.807MJ or -1.404MW.

*'''Fire Ice to Hydrogen and Graphene''' for 1 Chemical Plant and extra sorters '''when burning the graphene''' over 2 seconds: (8MJ + 2 * 96kW) * 0.8 - (2 * 4.8MJ) * 0.8 - (720kW + 2.42 * 18kW) * 2s = -2.730MJ or -1.365MW.
*'''Hydrogen and Titanium Ore to Hydrogen Fuel Rods''': check the line above made for the crude oil section.

====Assumptions====
*Four [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]], each covering 6 Fire Ice Veins.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Fire Ice====
*Fire Ice production: 24 Veins * 0.5 Fire Ice/s = 12 Fire Ice/s.
*Power Stations needed to burn 12 Fire Ice/s: 12 * 4.8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 21 Stations.
*Power production: 21 Stations * 2.16 MW = 45.36 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 21 * 18 kW = 0.378 MW.
*Net power production: 45.36 MW - 1.68 MW - 0.378 MW = '''43.302 MW'''.

====Burning Hydrogen====
2 Fire Ice (9.6 MJ) can be converted to 1 [[Hydrogen]] (8 MJ) and 2 [[Graphene]] (0.192 MJ) which is already a loss of energy without taking any buildings into account.

====Burning Hydrogen Fuel Rods ====
*Crafting Hydrogen from 12 Fire Ice/s needs 12 [[Chemical Plant|Chemical Plants]], and results in 6 Hydrogen/s and 12 Graphene/s.
*Crafting Hydrogen Fuel Rods from 6 Hydrogen/s results in 1.2 Fuel Rods/s and 12 Graphene/s.
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.2 Fuel Rods/s: 1.2 * 50 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 22 Stations (one more than needed for burning Fire Ice).
*The produced Graphene cannot satisfy a single Power Station: 12 * 0.096 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = (exactly) 0.43 Stations.
* The 1.43 extra Power Stations produce 3.08 MW more power, compared to burning Fire Ice directly.
*The 12 Chemical Plants needed to produce Hydrogen already consume 12 * 720 kW = 8.64 MW.

====Conclusion====
Burning Fire Ice directly in the Thermal Power Station is more efficient than converting it to Hydrogen or Hydrogen Fuel Rods. Unless you need extra graphene from Fire Ice, this is highly discouraged.

Solar is decent early/mid-game power source, easily scalable to ~500MW on a planet.

Most obvious layouts are building circles on both poles or 4-wide strip on the equator.

By standing on the pole and with using god-build-mode(Settings/Gameplay) you may place Solar Panels at 5/second (~3sec per 15-long row).

To build Solar Panels on poles without overlaying errors while building a long row, place first panel 2 tiles from pole.

Advanced Mining Machine

2024-11-25T20:25:08Z

Phoenixx: /* Output Cargo Stack Count (Slider) & Use Tech Limit (Checkbox) */

<div style="float: right; clear: right;">
{{:{{PAGENAME}}/ItemInfo}}
</div>
==Summary==
The '''Advanced Mining Machine''' is the late-game alternative to the regular [[Mining Machine]], offering both higher mining speed and better vein coverage. Unlike regular Mining Machines, the Advanced Mining Machines' mining field cannot overlap with each other, although they can overlap with regular Miners' fields.

The baseline mining speed of an Advanced Mining Machine is 60 per vein, twice as fast as the basic one. Additionally, the Advanced Mining Machine's field is large enough to easily cover an entire vein cluster at once. Like the basic Mining Machine, the number of veins covered does not affect energy consumption, which ends up making the Advanced Mining Machine more energy-efficient as well; covering an entire cluster only takes 1 Advanced Mining Machine but could take 5 or 6 basic ones.

The Advanced Mining Machine also has 2 features the basic one does not. First, it has a slider that allows the player to manually increase its mining speed up to 300% of the baseline, although this will greatly increase the energy required. Second, it contains an internal storage similar to a [[Planetary Logistics Station]] with a base capacity of 5000 items (increased by 1000 per level of the [[Logistics Carrier Capacity (Upgrade)|Logistics Carrier Capacity]] upgrade) that can be set to '''Supply''' or '''Storage''' mode. Setting this to '''Supply''' allows [[Logistics Drone]]s to pick up items from the Advanced Mining Machine, but as a result Advanced Mining machines cannot be built near Logistics Stations.

On top of all these improvements over the basic Mining Machine, the Advanced Mining Machine also has 9 [[Conveyor Belts|conveyor belt]] outputs instead of 1. When using [[Conveyor Belt Mk.III|Conveyor Belts Mk.III]], up to 16200 items can be unloaded per minute. The [[Logistics Station Integrated Logistics (Upgrade)|Logistics Station Integrated Logistics]] upgrade also allows the Advanced Mining Machine to output stacked cargo, raising that limit to a whopping 64800 items per minute at the upgrade's maximum level.

==Operational Configuration and Settings==
===Gathering Speed Slider===
Gathering speed can be set as low as 100% (the normal speed) and as high as 300%, in increments of 10% at a time.

The power consumption increases by the multiplier squared. For instance, 200% mining speed results in 2.0^2 = 4 times the power consumption.
{| class="wikitable" style="background-color: #0b161c;text-align:center"
! Speed multiplier
| 100% || 150% || 200% || 250% || 300%
|-
! Power consumption
| 2.94 MW<br>(100%) || 6.615 MW<br>(225%) || 11.76 MW<br>(400%) || 18.375 MW<br>(625%) || 26.46 MW<br>(900%)
|}

The gathering speed multiplier stacks ''multiplicatively'' with the speed bonus from the [[Veins Utilization (Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

===Output Cargo Stack Count (Slider) & Use Tech Limit (Checkbox)===
These options are unlocked with the [[Logistics Station Integrated Logistics (Upgrade)|Logistics Station Integrated Logistics]] upgrade. It allows [[Logistics Stations]] and Advanced Mining Machines to output cargo to the belts in stacks instead of 1 at a time, similar to the stacks formed by the [[Automatic Piler]]. When the checkbox is set, the slider is locked and the amount of cargo in stacks is equal to the maximum possible allowed by the upgrade. Otherwise, the player can set the stack count at which the cargo gets unloaded, between 1 and the current tech limit.

==Player Tips & Tricks==

While the Advanced Mining Machine's mining speed is a welcome luxury, keep in mind that veins will be depleted considerably faster than with basic Mining Machines. Be prepared to set up new mining facilities on other planets.

Normal Mining Machines can be placed on the same cluster as the Advanced Mining Machine and put their output directly into the Advanced Mining Machine's storage.

Energy Sources

2024-11-25T20:08:33Z

Phoenixx: /* List of Fuels */

Dyson Sphere Program's main focus is power generation; as such, there are a plethora of different ways of generating power in the game, ranging from the humble [[Wind Turbine|wind turbine]] you start with, to [[Mini Fusion Power Station|fusion generators]], [[Artificial Star|artificial stars]], and, of course, the Dyson Sphere itself. Some of these generators and your mech, Icarus, run on one or more different fuels. This page lists all fuels in the game and Their stats.

==Fuel stats==
All fuels have two stats: '''Energy''', and '''Fuel chamber gen.'''

'''Energy''' is the total energy each item contains. When used in Icarus, the [[Mini Fusion Power Station]] and the [[Artificial Star]], this is the total energy it generates. [[Thermal Power Station|Thermal Power Stations]] incur a 20% energy loss for all fuels they use.

'''Fuel chamber gen.''' marks how quickly Icarus' reactor core converts the fuel. This only changes how fast energy is recharged, not how much total energy is produced. Note that [[Coal]] with 0% is the only fuel that matches your [[Energy Circuit (Upgrade)|Energy Circuit]] upgrade level. Both positive and negative percentages are relative to this. For instance, both a [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod]] and the 5 [[Hydrogen]] it requires to produce contain a total of 54MJ, but the fuel rod has a Fuel chamber gen. of +200% instead of the +100% of regular hydrogen, meaning you will use the fuel rod 50% faster (300% total charge rate compared to 200%) than the regular hydrogen and therefore recharge energy 50% faster. The time fuel lasts, and your recovery speed, both depend on your [[Energy Circuit (Upgrade)|Energy Circuit]] upgrade level.

The "fuel chamber gen." stat only affects Icarus; it has no effect on [[Thermal Power Plant|Thermal Power Plants]].

===Burn Time===
Burn Time is calculated with the following formula:
<pre>(Energy * Efficiency) / Rate == burn time (in seconds)</pre>
Energy is the amount of energy stored in the fuel, in Joules.<br>
Efficiency is the conversion efficiency of the generator burning the fuel. For a [[Thermal Power Station]], this is 0.8 (80%).<br>
Rate is the rate at which the generator is supplying power (in Watts) to the grid.

Example: To calculate the burn time of 1 Energetic Graphite in 1 thermal power generator at 100% load:
<pre>Energy * Efficiency / Rate == burn time (in seconds)
(6.3 MJ * 0.8) / 2.16MW == 2.333 seconds
</pre>

The table below has been calculated at 100% load for all fuels/generators. Fuel <em>typically</em> takes longer than this to burn in practice, because it is abnormal to keep a power grid at 100% load at all times.

==Efficient Power Production==
The following chapters describe by example the best ways to utilize the different basic fuel resources [[Coal]], [[Crude Oil]], and [[Fire Ice]], taking the power consumption of required buildings like smelters, refineries, sorters etc. into account.

===Coal vs. Energetic Graphite===
====Assumptions====
*Four [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]], each covering 6 Coal Veins.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Coal====
*Coal production: 24 Veins * 0.5 Coal/s = 12 Coal/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 12 Coal/s: 12 * 2.7 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 12 Stations.
*Power production: 12 Stations * 2.16 MW = 25.92 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 12 * 18 kW = 0.216 MW.
*Net power production: 25.92 MW - 1.68 MW - 0.216 MW = '''24.024 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite====
*Smelting 12 Coal/s needs 12 Smelters, and results in 6 Graphite/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 6 Graphite/s: 6 * 6.75 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 15 Stations.
*Power production: 15 Stations * 2.16 MW = 32.4 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
# Smelters: 12 * 360 kW = 4.32 MW.
#Sorters (2 per Smelter, 1 per Station): 39 * 18 kW = 0.702 MW.
*Net power production: 32.4 MW - 1.68 MW - 4.32 MW - 0.702 MW = '''25.698 MW'''.

=== Burning Combustible Unit ===
*Smelting 12 Coal/s needs 12 Smelters, and results in 4 Combustible Units/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 6 Combustible Unit/s: 4 * 9.72 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 14.4 Stations.
*Power production: 14.4 Stations * 2.16 MW = 31.104 MW.
*Power consumption:

1. Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
2. Smelters: 12 * 360 kW = 4.32 MW.
3. Sorters (2 per Smelter, 1 per Station): 39 * 18 kW = 0.702 MW.

*Net power production: 31.104 MW - 1.68 MW - 4.32 MW - 0.702 MW = '''24.402 MW'''.

====Conclusion====
The increased effort of smelting Energetic Graphite from Coal results in ~1.7 MW more net power production.
*Coal: 24.024 MW
*Energetic Graphite: 25.698 MW
*Combustible Unit: 24.402 MW.

===Crude Oil vs. Refined Oil vs. X-Ray Cracking vs. Hydrogen Fuel Rods===
[[Crude Oil]] can be converted to [[Refined Oil]] and [[Hydrogen]]. Using the [[X-Ray Cracking]] recipe, this can be converted into [[Energetic Graphite]] and Hydrogen. Finally, Hydrogen and [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium Ingots]] can be crafted into [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]].

====Energy change from conversion ====
As for Coal-to-Energetic-Graphite above, we can do some quick math of the energy difference from converting the different stages of fuel to their next possible outcome. Note that for each case, if your system is not perfectly balanced to maximize factory usage, each second spent idle is extra energy lost and the results given are only an upper bound of the best you could get, but you most likely will get less.

*'''Crude Oil to Refined Oil''' and Hydrogen for 1 [[Oil Refinery]] and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (8MJ + 2 * 4.4MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 4MJ) * 0.8 - (960kW + 4.1 * 18kW) * 4s = +2.9048MJ or +726.2kW.
*'''Refined Oil to Hydrogen and Graphite''' for 1 Oil Refinery and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (8MJ + 6.3MJ) * 0.8 - (4.4MJ) * 0.8 - (960kW + 6.25 * 18 kW) * 4s = +3.63MJ or +907.5kW.
*'''Hydrogen and Titanium Ore to Hydrogen Fuel Rods''' for 1 Smelter and 2 [[Assembling Machine Mk.I|Assembling Machines Mk.I]] and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (50MJ) * 0.8 - (5 * 8MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 270kW + 360kW + 6.25 * 18kW) * 4s = +3.95MJ or +987.5kW.

====Assumptions ====
*One Crude Oil Seep producing 1.5 Oil/s.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Crude Oil====
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Oil/s: 1.5 * 4 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power production: 2 Stations * 2.16 MW = 4.32 MW.
*Power consumption:
#[[Oil Extractor]]: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 2 * 18 kW = 0.036 MW.
*Net power production: 4.32 MW - 0.84 MW - 0.036 MW = '''3.444 MW'''.

====Burning Refined Oil and Hydrogen====
*Refining 1.5 Crude Oil/s needs 3 Oil Refineries, and results in 1.5 Refined Oil/s and 0.75 Hydrogen/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Refined Oil/s: 1.5 * 4.4 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 0.75 Hydrogen/s: 0.75 * 8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
*Power production: 4 Stations * 2.16 MW = 8.64 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Oil Refineries: 3 * 960 kW = 2.88 MW.
# Sorters (3 per Refinery, 1 per Station): 13 * 18 kW = 0.234 MW.
*Net power production: 8.64 MW - 0.84 MW - 2.88 MW - 0.234 MW = '''4.686 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite and Hydrogen (X-Ray Cracking) ====
*Cracking 1.5 Refined Oil/s needs 6 Oil Refineries, and results in 1.5 Graphite/s and 1.5 extra Hydrogen/s (2.25 Hydrogen/s in total).
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Graphite/s: 1.5 * 6.3 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 3 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 2.25 Hydrogen/s: 2.25 * 8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 6 Stations.
*Power production: 9 Stations * 2.16 MW = 19.44 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
#Oil Refineries: 9 * 960 kW = 8.64 MW.
#Sorters (3 per Refined Oil, 4 per X-Ray, 1 per Station): 42 * 18 kW = 0.756 MW.
*Net power production: 19.44 MW - 0.84 MW - 8.64 MW - 0.756 MW = '''9.204 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite and Hydrogen Fuel Rods (With X-Ray Cracking)====
*Crafting [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]] from 2.25 Hydrogen/s needs 2 [[Assembling Machine Mk.I|Assemblers]], and results in 0.45 Fuel Rods/s (5 Hydrogen per Fuel Rod).
*Smelting the required 0.45 [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium Ingots]]/s for the Fuel Rods needs 1 Smelter (max. output 0.5 ingots/s). It consumes 0.9 [[Titanium Ore]]/s which can be mined by 1 Mining Machine covering 2 Titanium Ore Veins.
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Graphite/s: 1.5 * 6.3 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 3 Stations.
*Power Stations needed to burn 0.45 Fuel Rods/s: 0.45 * 50 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 8 Stations.
*Power production: 11 Stations * 2.16 MW = 23.76 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
# Oil Refineries: 9 * 960 kW = 8.64 MW.
#Mining Machines: 1 * 420 kW = 0.42 MW.
#Smelters: 1 * 360 kW = 0.36 MW.
# Assemblers: 2 * 270 kW = 0.54 MW.
#Sorters (3 per Refined Oil, 4 per X-Ray, 2 per Smelter, 3 per Assembler, 1 per Station): 52 * 18 kW = 0.936 MW.
* Net power production: 23.76 MW - 0.84 MW - 8.64 MW - 0.42 MW - 0.36 MW - 0.54 MW - 0.936 MW = '''12.024 MW'''.

====Conclusion====
Each step in the production chain increases the net power production.
*Crude Oil: 3.444 MW.
*Refined Oil: 4.686 MW.
*X-Ray Cracking: 9.204 MW.
*Hydrogen Fuel Rods: 12.024 MW.

===Fire Ice vs. Hydrogen vs. Hydrogen Fuel Rods===
[[Fire Ice]] could be converted to [[Hydrogen]] or [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]].

====Energy change from conversion ====

*'''Fire Ice to Hydrogen and Graphene''' for 1 [[Chemical Plant]] and extra sorters '''without burning the graphene''' over 2 seconds: (8MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 4.8MJ) * 0.8 - (720kW + 2.42 * 18kW) * 2s = -2.807MJ or -1.404MW.

*'''Fire Ice to Hydrogen and Graphene''' for 1 Chemical Plant and extra sorters '''when burning the graphene''' over 2 seconds: (8MJ + 2 * 96kW) * 0.8 - (2 * 4.8MJ) * 0.8 - (720kW + 2.42 * 18kW) * 2s = -2.730MJ or -1.365MW.
*'''Hydrogen and Titanium Ore to Hydrogen Fuel Rods''': check the line above made for the crude oil section.

====Assumptions====
*Four [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]], each covering 6 Fire Ice Veins.
*No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Fire Ice====
*Fire Ice production: 24 Veins * 0.5 Fire Ice/s = 12 Fire Ice/s.
*Power Stations needed to burn 12 Fire Ice/s: 12 * 4.8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 21 Stations.
*Power production: 21 Stations * 2.16 MW = 45.36 MW.
*Power consumption:
#Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
#Sorters (1 per Station): 21 * 18 kW = 0.378 MW.
*Net power production: 45.36 MW - 1.68 MW - 0.378 MW = '''43.302 MW'''.

====Burning Hydrogen====
2 Fire Ice (9.6 MJ) can be converted to 1 [[Hydrogen]] (8 MJ) and 2 [[Graphene]] (0.192 MJ) which is already a loss of energy without taking any buildings into account.

====Burning Hydrogen Fuel Rods ====
*Crafting Hydrogen from 12 Fire Ice/s needs 12 [[Chemical Plant|Chemical Plants]], and results in 6 Hydrogen/s and 12 Graphene/s.
*Crafting Hydrogen Fuel Rods from 6 Hydrogen/s results in 1.2 Fuel Rods/s and 12 Graphene/s.
*Power Stations needed to burn 1.2 Fuel Rods/s: 1.2 * 50 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 22 Stations (one more than needed for burning Fire Ice).
*The produced Graphene cannot satisfy a single Power Station: 12 * 0.096 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = (exactly) 0.43 Stations.
* The 1.43 extra Power Stations produce 3.08 MW more power, compared to burning Fire Ice directly.
*The 12 Chemical Plants needed to produce Hydrogen already consume 12 * 720 kW = 8.64 MW.

====Conclusion====
Burning Fire Ice directly in the Thermal Power Station is more efficient than converting it to Hydrogen or Hydrogen Fuel Rods. Unless you need extra graphene from Fire Ice, this is highly discouraged.

Solar is decent early/mid-game power source, easily scalable to ~500MW on a planet.

Most obvious layouts are building circles on both poles or 4-wide strip on the equator.

By standing on the pole and with using god-build-mode(Settings/Gameplay) you may place Solar Panels at 5/second (~3sec per 15-long row).

To build Solar Panels on poles without overlaying errors while building a long row, place first panel 2 tiles from pole.

</div>
==Summary==
'''Soil Pile''' is sort of a hidden resource in the game. It is not an actual item, but is carried within your mecha and added to or subtracted from as necessary.

Soil pile is gained (added to your mecha's Soil Pile storage) when you place a [[:Category:Building|Building]] or [[Foundation]] on terrain that is elevated above the "level" terrain height. A maximum of one billion Soil Pile can be carried by the mecha.

Soil pile is consumed when you place [[Foundation]] or a Building in an area lower than the "level" terrain height. If you do not have sufficient soil pile in your mecha's storage, the game will warn you and not permit you to place the Foundation or Building.

You can apply [[Spray Coater|Proliferator]] to [[Foundation]] to get the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus. This gives additional soil piles when lowering terrain, and reduces the soil pile cost when raising terrain.

Energy Sources

2024-01-09T01:32:14Z

Phoenixx: /* List of Fuels */ added Strange Annihilation Fuel Rod

{{cleanup|Broaden the scope - add all energy sources here, and have Fuels as a subsection.}}

+Dyson Sphere Program has several ways of generating power. From the [[Wind Turbine|wind turbine]] you start with, to [[Mini Fusion Power Station|fusion generators]], [[Artificial Star|artificial stars]] and of course the Dyson Sphere itself. Some of these generators and your mech, Icarus, run on one or more different fuels. This page lists all fuels in the game and explains the stats they use.

==Fuel stats==
All fuels have two stats that tell you how good they are: '''Energy''', and '''Fuel chamber gen.'''

'''Energy''' is the total energy each item contains. When used in your mech, the [[Mini Fusion Power Station]] and the [[Artificial Star]], this is the total energy it generates. [[Thermal Power Station|Thermal Power Stations]] incur a 20% energy loss for all fuels they use.

'''Fuel chamber gen.''' marks how efficient your mech's Fuel Chamber is at converting the fuel. This only changes how fast energy is recharged, not how much total energy is produced. Note that [[Coal]] with 0% is the only fuel that matches your [[Energy Circuit (Upgrade)|Energy Circuit]] upgrade level. Both positive and negative percentages are relative to this. For instance, both a [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod]] and the 5 [[Hydrogen]] it requires to produce contain a total of 40MJ (before patch '''0.6.17.5972, [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod]]''' now contains 54MJ), but the fuel rod has a Fuel chamber gen. of +200% instead of the +100% of regular hydrogen, meaning you will use the fuel rod 50% faster (300% total charge rate compared to 200%) than the regular hydrogen and therefore recharge energy 50% faster. The time fuel lasts, and your recovery speed, both depend on your [[Energy Circuit (Upgrade)|Energy Circuit]] upgrade level.

The "fuel chamber gen." stat only affects your mech; it has no effect on [[Thermal Power Plant|Thermal Power Plants]].

===Burn Time===
Burn Time is calculated with the following formula:
<pre>(Energy * Efficiency) / Rate == burn time (in seconds)</pre>
Energy is the amount of energy stored in the fuel, in Joules.<br>
Efficiency is the conversion efficiency of the generator burning the fuel. For a [[Thermal Power Station]], this is 0.8 (80%).<br>
Rate is the rate at which the generator is supplying power (in Watts) to the grid.

Example: To calculate the burn time of 1 Energetic Graphite in 1 thermal power generator at 100% load:
<pre>Energy * Efficiency / Rate == burn time (in seconds)
(6.3 MJ * 0.8) / 2.16MW == 2.333 seconds
</pre>

The table below has been calculated at 100% load for all fuels/generators. Fuel <em>typically</em> takes longer than this to burn in practice, because it is abnormal to keep a power grid at 100% load at all times.

==Efficient Power Production==
The following chapters describe by example the best ways to utilize the different basic fuel resources [[Coal]], [[Crude Oil]], and [[Fire Ice]], taking the power consumption of required buildings like smelters, refineries, sorters etc. into account.

===Coal vs. Energetic Graphite===
====Assumptions====
* Four [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]], each covering 6 Coal Veins.
* No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Coal====
* Coal production: 24 Veins * 0.5 Coal/s = 12 Coal/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 12 Coal/s: 12 * 2.7 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 12 Stations.
* Power production: 12 Stations * 2.16 MW = 25.92 MW.
* Power consumption:
# Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
# Sorters (1 per Station): 12 * 18 kW = 0.216 MW.
* Net power production: 25.92 MW - 1.68 MW - 0.216 MW = '''24.024 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite====
* Smelting 12 Coal/s needs 12 Smelters, and results in 6 Graphite/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 6 Graphite/s: 6 * 6.75 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 15 Stations.
* Power production: 15 Stations * 2.16 MW = 32.4 MW.
* Power consumption:
# Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
# Smelters: 12 * 360 kW = 4.32 MW.
# Sorters (2 per Smelter, 1 per Station): 39 * 18 kW = 0.702 MW.
* Net power production: 32.4 MW - 1.68 MW - 4.32 MW - 0.702 MW = '''25.698 MW'''.

====Conclusion====
The increased effort of smelting Energetic Graphite from Coal results in ~1.7 MW more net power production.
* Coal: 24.024 MW
* Energetic Graphite: 25.698 MW.

===Crude Oil vs. Refined Oil vs. X-Ray Cracking vs. Hydrogen Fuel Rods===
[[Crude Oil]] can be converted to [[Refined Oil]] and [[Hydrogen]]. Using the [[X-Ray Cracking]] recipe, this can be converted into [[Energetic Graphite]] and Hydrogen. Finally, Hydrogen and [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium Ingots]] can be crafted into [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]].

==== Energy change from conversion ====
As for Coal-to-Energetic-Graphite above, we can do some quick math of the energy difference from converting the different stages of fuel to their next possible outcome. Note that for each case, if your system is not perfectly balanced to maximize factory usage, each second spent idle is extra energy lost and the results given are only an upper bound of the best you could get, but you most likely will get less.

* '''Crude Oil to Refined Oil''' and Hydrogen for 1 [[Oil Refinery]] and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (8MJ + 2 * 4.4MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 4MJ) * 0.8 - (960kW + 4.1 * 18kW) * 4s = +2.9048MJ or +726.2kW.
* '''Refined Oil to Hydrogen and Graphite''' for 1 Oil Refinery and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (8MJ + 6.3MJ) * 0.8 - (4.4MJ) * 0.8 - (960kW + 6.25 * 18 kW) * 4s = +3.63MJ or +907.5kW.
* '''Hydrogen and Titanium Ore to Hydrogen Fuel Rods''' for 1 Smelter and 2 [[Assembling Machine Mk.I|Assembling Machines Mk.I]] and extra sorters over 4 seconds: (50MJ) * 0.8 - (5 * 8MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 270kW + 360kW + 6.25 * 18kW) * 4s = +3.95MJ or +987.5kW.

====Assumptions====
* One Crude Oil Seep producing 1.5 Oil/s.
* No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Crude Oil====
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Oil/s: 1.5 * 4 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
* Power production: 2 Stations * 2.16 MW = 4.32 MW.
* Power consumption:
# [[Oil Extractor]]: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
# Sorters (1 per Station): 2 * 18 kW = 0.036 MW.
* Net power production: 4.32 MW - 0.84 MW - 0.036 MW = '''3.444 MW'''.

====Burning Refined Oil and Hydrogen====
* Refining 1.5 Crude Oil/s needs 3 Oil Refineries, and results in 1.5 Refined Oil/s and 0.75 Hydrogen/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Refined Oil/s: 1.5 * 4.4 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
* Power Stations needed to burn 0.75 Hydrogen/s: 0.75 * 8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 2 Stations.
* Power production: 4 Stations * 2.16 MW = 8.64 MW.
* Power consumption:
# Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
# Oil Refineries: 3 * 960 kW = 2.88 MW.
# Sorters (3 per Refinery, 1 per Station): 13 * 18 kW = 0.234 MW.
* Net power production: 8.64 MW - 0.84 MW - 2.88 MW - 0.234 MW = '''4.686 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite and Hydrogen (X-Ray Cracking)====
* Cracking 1.5 Refined Oil/s needs 6 Oil Refineries, and results in 1.5 Graphite/s and 1.5 extra Hydrogen/s (2.25 Hydrogen/s in total).
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Graphite/s: 1.5 * 6.3 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 3 Stations.
* Power Stations needed to burn 2.25 Hydrogen/s: 2.25 * 8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 6 Stations.
* Power production: 9 Stations * 2.16 MW = 19.44 MW.
* Power consumption:
# Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
# Oil Refineries: 9 * 960 kW = 8.64 MW.
# Sorters (3 per Refined Oil, 4 per X-Ray, 1 per Station): 42 * 18 kW = 0.756 MW.
* Net power production: 19.44 MW - 0.84 MW - 8.64 MW - 0.756 MW = '''9.204 MW'''.

====Burning Energetic Graphite and Hydrogen Fuel Rods (With X-Ray Cracking)====
* Crafting [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]] from 2.25 Hydrogen/s needs 2 [[Assembling Machine Mk.I|Assemblers]], and results in 0.45 Fuel Rods/s (5 Hydrogen per Fuel Rod).
* Smelting the required 0.45 [[Titanium Ingot|Titanium Ingots]]/s for the Fuel Rods needs 1 Smelter (max. output 0.5 ingots/s). It consumes 0.9 [[Titanium Ore]]/s which can be mined by 1 Mining Machine covering 2 Titanium Ore Veins.
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.5 Graphite/s: 1.5 * 6.3 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 3 Stations.
* Power Stations needed to burn 0.45 Fuel Rods/s: 0.45 * 50 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 8 Stations.
* Power production: 11 Stations * 2.16 MW = 23.76 MW.
* Power consumption:
# Oil Extractor: 1 * 840 kW = 0.84 MW.
# Oil Refineries: 9 * 960 kW = 8.64 MW.
# Mining Machines: 1 * 420 kW = 0.42 MW.
# Smelters: 1 * 360 kW = 0.36 MW.
# Assemblers: 2 * 270 kW = 0.54 MW.
# Sorters (3 per Refined Oil, 4 per X-Ray, 2 per Smelter, 3 per Assembler, 1 per Station): 52 * 18 kW = 0.936 MW.
* Net power production: 23.76 MW - 0.84 MW - 8.64 MW - 0.42 MW - 0.36 MW - 0.54 MW - 0.936 MW = '''12.024 MW'''.

====Conclusion====
Each step in the production chain increases the net power production.
* Crude Oil: 3.444 MW.
* Refined Oil: 4.686 MW.
* X-Ray Cracking: 9.204 MW.
* Hydrogen Fuel Rods: 12.024 MW.

===Fire Ice vs. Hydrogen vs. Hydrogen Fuel Rods===
[[Fire Ice]] could be converted to [[Hydrogen]] or [[Hydrogen Fuel Rod|Hydrogen Fuel Rods]].

==== Energy change from conversion ====

* '''Fire Ice to Hydrogen and Graphene''' for 1 [[Chemical Plant]] and extra sorters '''without burning the graphene''' over 2 seconds: (8MJ) * 0.8 - (2 * 4.8MJ) * 0.8 - (720kW + 2.42 * 18kW) * 2s = -2.807MJ or -1.404MW.

* '''Fire Ice to Hydrogen and Graphene''' for 1 Chemical Plant and extra sorters '''when burning the graphene''' over 2 seconds: (8MJ + 2 * 96kW) * 0.8 - (2 * 4.8MJ) * 0.8 - (720kW + 2.42 * 18kW) * 2s = -2.730MJ or -1.365MW.
* '''Hydrogen and Titanium Ore to Hydrogen Fuel Rods''': check the line above made for the crude oil section.

====Assumptions====
* Four [[Mining Machine|Mining Machines]], each covering 6 Fire Ice Veins.
* No [[Veins Utilization_(Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] upgrade.

====Burning Fire Ice====
* Fire Ice production: 24 Veins * 0.5 Fire Ice/s = 12 Fire Ice/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 12 Fire Ice/s: 12 * 4.8 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 21 Stations.
* Power production: 21 Stations * 2.16 MW = 45.36 MW.
* Power consumption:
# Mining Machines: 4 * 420 kW = 1.68 MW.
# Sorters (1 per Station): 21 * 18 kW = 0.378 MW.
* Net power production: 45.36 MW - 1.68 MW - 0.378 MW = '''43.302 MW'''.

====Burning Hydrogen====
2 Fire Ice (9.6 MJ) can be converted to 1 [[Hydrogen]] (8 MJ) and 2 [[Graphene]] (0.192 MJ) which is already a loss of energy without taking any buildings into account.

====Burning Hydrogen Fuel Rods====
* Crafting Hydrogen from 12 Fire Ice/s needs 12 [[Chemical Plant|Chemical Plants]], and results in 6 Hydrogen/s and 12 Graphene/s.
* Crafting Hydrogen Fuel Rods from 6 Hydrogen/s results in 1.2 Fuel Rods/s and 12 Graphene/s.
* Power Stations needed to burn 1.2 Fuel Rods/s: 1.2 * 50 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = 22 Stations (one more than needed for burning Fire Ice).
* The produced Graphene cannot satisfy a single Power Station: 12 * 0.096 MJ * 0.8 / 2.16 MW = (exactly) 0.43 Stations.
* The 1.43 extra Power Stations produce 3.08 MW more power, compared to burning Fire Ice directly.
* The 12 Chemical Plants needed to produce Hydrogen already consume 12 * 720 kW = 8.64 MW.

====Conclusion====
Burning Fire Ice directly in the Thermal Power Station is more efficient than converting it to Hydrogen or Hydrogen Fuel Rods. Unless you need extra graphene from Fire Ice, this is highly discouraged.

By standing on the pole and with using god-build-mode(Settings/Gameplay) you may place Solar Panels at 5/second (~3sec per 15-long row).

To build Solar Panels on poles without overlaying errors while building a long row, place first panel 2 tiles from pole.

Spray Coater

2024-01-09T01:21:00Z

Phoenixx: /* Proliferator Bonuses */

<div style="float: right; clear: right;">
{{:{{PAGENAME}}/ItemInfo}}
</div>
==Summary==
The Spray Coater's purpose is to apply Proliferator sprays to the items passing through it. These sprayed items receive various bonuses depending on how they are used. The Proliferators enter the spray storage of the Spray Coater through the top belt passage, while the item to be sprayed passes through the bottom belt passage.

The Spray Coater's storage holds sprays instead of Proliferator items, which get converted to sprays when entering. Each type of Proliferator gives a different amount of sprays per Proliferator item consumed, but the Spray Coater's storage capacity is always 600 sprays. If its storage is full, or the entering Proliferator is a different type than the one already stored, the entering Proliferator will simply pass through the Spray Coater.

If [[Cargo Stacking|stacked cargo]] passes through the Spray Coater, the Proliferator is applied to the entire stack at once, using sprays equal to the number of items in the stack.

Spray Coaters can be installed directly onto a conveyor belt (even one that is in the air), or vertically stacked. The base stacking limit is 7, increased by 3 per each level of the [[Vertical Construction (Upgrade)|Vertical Construction]] upgrade, up to a maximum of 25. It is worth noting that once 25 Spray Coaters are stacked, conveyor belts will not be able to automatically provide Proliferators to the topmost Spray Coater (as belts cannot be constructed this high); the player must manually provide the Proliferator to the 25th Spray Coater.

==Proliferators Summary==

==Proliferator Bonuses==
An item sprayed with Proliferator will be marked with a small yellow triangle(s): 1 triangle for Mk.I, 2 triangles for Mk.II, and 3 triangles for Mk.III. Items that have different mark levels can be combined into a single stack, but doing so will cause the mark level for the entire stack to become lower.

Items sprayed with Proliferator will receive various bonuses, depending on the type of activity they are involved in. The bonus amount depends on what tier of Proliferator was used, and whether the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus or {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus is selected. Some of the activities also apply an energy consumption penalty to the building that processes the sprayed item.

! style="border-left: none" | Production
| Any production building (except the [[Fractionator]], see below) can have either the {{glow|Production Speedup}} or {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus if '''''ALL''''' the recipe ingredients have had the same tier of Proliferator applied to them. The bonus can be selected by the player (the default is {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}). If any one of the ingredients has a lower-tier mark, that lowest bonus is the one that will be applied. If any of the ingredients has ''no'' mark, then no bonus is applied.

The production of [[Antimatter]], [[Antimatter Fuel Rod]], the [[X-Ray Cracking]] recipe, and recipes that use other buildings as material (such as Mk.II and Mk.III [[Conveyor Belts]], [[Sorters]] or [[Assembling Machines]]) ''cannot'' receive the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus. Production of these can only benefit from the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus.

The {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus is multiplicative with bonuses on the building's crafting speed. For example, applying Proliferator Mk.III to an [[Assembling Machine Mk.III]] will result in a final crafting speed of 3x the base amount (+100% to the Assembly Machine Mk.III's 1.5x crafting speed).

The Proliferator bonus is multiplicative with the innate bonus of the Lens; therefore, using a Lens sprayed with the Proliferator Mk.III would result in 400% of the baseline generation (+100% to the Graviton Lens's 2x bonus).

When burning sprayed Fuel in the [[Mecha|Mecha's]] Fuel Chamber, the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus applies to the Fuel Chamber Generation rate. The bonus is multiplicative with the Fuel's native Fuel Chamber Generation bonus. For example, [[Energetic Graphite]] sprayed with Proliferator Mk.III will have 187.5% the normal energy capacity (150% {{x}} 1.25).

It does not alter the Fuel Rod's energy capacity, resulting in a faster burn rate.

When burnt in the Mecha's Fuel Chamber, the Proliferator's {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus applies to the Fuel Chamber Generation rate instead. It is multiplicative to the innate bonus, thus resulting in 1200% and 2300% Fuel Chamber Generation, respectively.

Accumulator's abilities to store and transfer power when placed as a building are unaffected by the Proliferator bonuses.

==Player Tips & Tricks==

While {{glow|Production Speedup}} may be a more enticing bonus at a glance than {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}, each option has its own pros and cons that players should consider thoroughly. Assume that [[Proliferator Mk.III]] is used for each of the following examples:

* Regardless of which bonus is selected, the energy penalty remains the same: +150% with Proliferator Mk.III.

* {{glow|Production Speedup}} reduces the overall size of the factory by cutting down on the number of individual facilities, giving a +100% increase in production rate (effectively packing 2 facilities into one). The overall energy consumption per unit is 25% higher than normal '''(2.5 energy / 2.00 products = 1.25 energy per product)'''.
** As a result, {{glow|Production Speedup}} is generally more useful when the required materials are abundant, or the manufacturing process is particularly slow.
** Keep in mind that {{glow|Production Speedup}} requires accordingly more raw materials. If the overall production rate is too high, more logistical infrastructure will be necessary to keep the facilities running. This is especially true when a process is already extremely fast (e.g. manufacturing [[Proliferator Mk.I]]). Applying the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus may make it impossible to actually get all the items in and out of the facility as fast as they are produced, particularly when using [[Assembling Machine Mk.III|Assembling Machines Mk.III]].
*** For instance, an Assembling Machine Mk.III producing Proliferator Mk.I with the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus will consume 6 [[Coal]] per second and produce 3 Proliferator Mk.I per second. This situation is easily handled for a single facility (since [[Sorter Mk.III|Sorters Mk.III]] transport up to 6 items per second and [[Conveyor Belt Mk.III|Conveyor Belts Mk.III]] transport 30 items per second), but when the number of facilities increases, bringing them their input and removing the output fast enough becomes surprisingly difficult.
* {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} requires much more energy per unit '''(2.50 energy / 1.25 products = 2.00 energy per product)''', but consumes only 80% as much raw material per product '''(1.00 material / 1.25 products = 0.8 material per product)'''.
** The {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus is also useful if the production in question has multiple stages or many inputs that make it difficult to apply Proliferator to every single item involved. In such a situation, applying the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus to only the final stage of production is a simple way to guarantee a bit more value from the facility, without having to set up complicated Proliferator logistics.

When using the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus, pay close attention to if the facility experiences any downtime. If the facility spends too much time idling, using the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus would produce the same number of products in the same amount of time (albeit while consuming more energy). Assuming that Proliferator Mk.III is used, any facility set to {{glow|Production Speedup}} that has an uptime of less than 62.5% should instead be set to {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}, unless the extra energy consumption is an issue. This can be found by solving for {{glow|[uptime]}} in this equation: {{glow|blue|(1.25 products * 100% uptime)}} '''/''' {{glow|(2.00 products * [uptime])}} '''> 1'''.

'''In summary:''' {{glow|Production Speedup}} might seem more useful in general, but becomes less beneficial if the facility has too much downtime, if the materials are difficult to acquire and/or transport, or if setting up infrastructure to deliver the Proliferator is complicated. {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} produces less product and requires more energy, but is more efficient with the materials and is simpler to use overall. The general consense is to use {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}, specially for rarer materials.

Spray Coater

2024-01-09T00:56:30Z

Phoenixx: /* Proliferator Bonuses */ add new bonuses

<div style="float: right; clear: right;">
{{:{{PAGENAME}}/ItemInfo}}
</div>
==Summary==
The Spray Coater's purpose is to apply Proliferator sprays to the items passing through it. These sprayed items receive various bonuses depending on how they are used. The Proliferators enter the spray storage of the Spray Coater through the top belt passage, while the item to be sprayed passes through the bottom belt passage.

The Spray Coater's storage holds sprays instead of Proliferator items, which get converted to sprays when entering. Each type of Proliferator gives a different amount of sprays per Proliferator item consumed, but the Spray Coater's storage capacity is always 600 sprays. If its storage is full, or the entering Proliferator is a different type than the one already stored, the entering Proliferator will simply pass through the Spray Coater.

If [[Cargo Stacking|stacked cargo]] passes through the Spray Coater, the Proliferator is applied to the entire stack at once, using sprays equal to the number of items in the stack.

Spray Coaters can be installed directly onto a conveyor belt (even one that is in the air), or vertically stacked. The base stacking limit is 7, increased by 3 per each level of the [[Vertical Construction (Upgrade)|Vertical Construction]] upgrade, up to a maximum of 25. It is worth noting that once 25 Spray Coaters are stacked, conveyor belts will not be able to automatically provide Proliferators to the topmost Spray Coater (as belts cannot be constructed this high); the player must manually provide the Proliferator to the 25th Spray Coater.

==Proliferators Summary==

==Proliferator Bonuses==
An item sprayed with Proliferator will be marked with a small yellow triangle(s): 1 triangle for Mk.I, 2 triangles for Mk.II, and 3 triangles for Mk.III. Items that have different mark levels can be combined into a single stack, but doing so will cause the mark level for the entire stack to become lower.

Items sprayed with Proliferator will receive various bonuses, depending on the type of activity they are involved in. The bonus amount depends on what tier of Proliferator was used, and whether the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus or {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus is selected. Some of the activities also apply an energy consumption penalty to the building that processes the sprayed item.

! style="border-left: none" | Production
| Any production building (except the [[Fractionator]], see below) can have either the {{glow|Production Speedup}} or {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus if '''''ALL''''' the recipe ingredients have had the same tier of Proliferator applied to them. The bonus can be selected by the player (the default is {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}). If any one of the ingredients has a lower-tier mark, that lowest bonus is the one that will be applied. If any of the ingredients has ''no'' mark, then no bonus is applied.

The production of [[Antimatter]], [[Antimatter Fuel Rod]], the [[X-Ray Cracking]] recipe, and recipes that use other buildings as material (such as Mk.II and Mk.III [[Conveyor Belts]], [[Sorters]] or [[Assembling Machines]]) ''cannot'' receive the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus. Production of these can only benefit from the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus.

The {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus is multiplicative with bonuses on the building's crafting speed. For example, applying Proliferator Mk.III to an [[Assembling Machine Mk.III]] will result in a final crafting speed of 3x the base amount (+100% to the Assembly Machine Mk.III's 1.5x crafting speed).

| Proliferated [[Graviton Lens]]es increase the [[Ray Receiver|Ray Receiver's]] maximum power collection rate by the Proliferator's {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus. This applies to both Power Generation and Photon Generation modes.

The Proliferator bonus is multiplicative with the innate bonus of the Lens; therefore, using a Lens sprayed with the Proliferator Mk.III would result in 400% of the baseline generation (+100% to the Graviton Lens's 2x bonus).

| Proliferated [[Fuels|Fuel]] (except [[Antimatter Fuel Rod]]s and [[Full Accumulator]]s) increase both the fuel's energy capacity and the generator's power output by the Proliferator's {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus.

When burning sprayed Fuel in the [[Mecha|Mecha's]] Fuel Chamber, the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus applies to the Fuel Chamber Generation rate. The bonus is multiplicative with the Fuel's native Fuel Chamber Generation bonus. For example, [[Energetic Graphite]] sprayed with Proliferator Mk.III will have 187.5% the normal energy capacity (150% {{x}} 1.25).

| Proliferated [[Antimatter Fuel Rod]]s only increase the [[Artificial Star|Artificial Star's]] power output, but by the amount of the Proliferator's {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus. It does not alter the Antimatter Fuel Rod's energy capacity, resulting in a faster burn rate.

When burnt in the Mecha's Fuel Chamber, the Proliferator's bonus applies to the Fuel Chamber Generation rate instead. It is multiplicative to the innate bonus, thus resulting in 1200% Fuel Chamber Generation.
| style="text-align:center" | No

! style="border-right: none" |{{ItemIcon|Energy Exchanger}}
! style="border-left: none" | Energy Exchanger
| Energy Exchanger's charge and discharge rate gets increased by the Proliferator's {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus applied to the input [[Accumulator|empty]] or [[Full Accumulator]].

==Player Tips & Tricks==

While {{glow|Production Speedup}} may be a more enticing bonus at a glance than {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}, each option has its own pros and cons that players should consider thoroughly. Assume that [[Proliferator Mk.III]] is used for each of the following examples:

* Regardless of which bonus is selected, the energy penalty remains the same: +150% with Proliferator Mk.III.

* {{glow|Production Speedup}} reduces the overall size of the factory by cutting down on the number of individual facilities, giving a +100% increase in production rate (effectively packing 2 facilities into one). The overall energy consumption per unit is 25% higher than normal '''(2.5 energy / 2.00 products = 1.25 energy per product)'''.
** As a result, {{glow|Production Speedup}} is generally more useful when the required materials are abundant, or the manufacturing process is particularly slow.
** Keep in mind that {{glow|Production Speedup}} requires accordingly more raw materials. If the overall production rate is too high, more logistical infrastructure will be necessary to keep the facilities running. This is especially true when a process is already extremely fast (e.g. manufacturing [[Proliferator Mk.I]]). Applying the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus may make it impossible to actually get all the items in and out of the facility as fast as they are produced, particularly when using [[Assembling Machine Mk.III|Assembling Machines Mk.III]].
*** For instance, an Assembling Machine Mk.III producing Proliferator Mk.I with the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus will consume 6 [[Coal]] per second and produce 3 Proliferator Mk.I per second. This situation is easily handled for a single facility (since [[Sorter Mk.III|Sorters Mk.III]] transport up to 6 items per second and [[Conveyor Belt Mk.III|Conveyor Belts Mk.III]] transport 30 items per second), but when the number of facilities increases, bringing them their input and removing the output fast enough becomes surprisingly difficult.
* {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} requires much more energy per unit '''(2.50 energy / 1.25 products = 2.00 energy per product)''', but consumes only 80% as much raw material per product '''(1.00 material / 1.25 products = 0.8 material per product)'''.
** The {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus is also useful if the production in question has multiple stages or many inputs that make it difficult to apply Proliferator to every single item involved. In such a situation, applying the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus to only the final stage of production is a simple way to guarantee a bit more value from the facility, without having to set up complicated Proliferator logistics.

When using the {{glow|Production Speedup}} bonus, pay close attention to if the facility experiences any downtime. If the facility spends too much time idling, using the {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} bonus would produce the same number of products in the same amount of time (albeit while consuming more energy). Assuming that Proliferator Mk.III is used, any facility set to {{glow|Production Speedup}} that has an uptime of less than 62.5% should instead be set to {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}, unless the extra energy consumption is an issue. This can be found by solving for {{glow|[uptime]}} in this equation: {{glow|blue|(1.25 products * 100% uptime)}} '''/''' {{glow|(2.00 products * [uptime])}} '''> 1'''.

'''In summary:''' {{glow|Production Speedup}} might seem more useful in general, but becomes less beneficial if the facility has too much downtime, if the materials are difficult to acquire and/or transport, or if setting up infrastructure to deliver the Proliferator is complicated. {{glow|blue|Extra Products}} produces less product and requires more energy, but is more efficient with the materials and is simpler to use overall. The general consense is to use {{glow|blue|Extra Products}}, specially for rarer materials.

Gas Giant

2024-01-09T00:26:23Z

Phoenixx:

{{Stub}}
==Summary==
'''Gas Giants''' are a type of planets in the game. Gas Giants frequently have one or more planets in orbit around them, an example being the starting world. Since Gas Giants have no physical surface, [[Icarus]] cannot land on them; instead, it simply floats above the cloud layer.

Icarus can manually collect resources from a Gas Giant, but [[Orbital Collector]]s can gather them automatically.

==Production==
A maximum of 40 Orbital Collectors may be placed on a Gas Giant's equator (where the latitude is 0 degrees, marked by a thicker green line in construction mode). Each collector will produce resources at the rate listed on the planet information seen in the star map.

Some of these resources will be consumed to power the collector, see the [[Orbital Collector]] page for details.

There are two types of Gas Giant.

===Gas Giant===
Mainly produces [[Hydrogen]], and produces [[Deuterium]] at a lower rate.

}}
|}

===Production Upgrades===
While each level of the [[Veins Utilization (Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] [[Upgrades|upgrade]] increases the collecting rate by a flat 10%, the 30MW upkeep cost of the Orbital Collector effectively increases it by more than 10%. See the [[Orbital Collector]] page for the full explanation.

==Player Tips & Tricks==
* Due to the large distance between where Orbital Collectors can be placed, construction drones can lag far behind if flying to place multiple collectors without waiting for each to be constructed.
* As with resource quantities on planets, the typical production rate of Gas Giants is higher for those found in systems further from the starting system, scaling as distance increases.
* Since Gas Giants are not physical, a loose item will simply fall directly into the planet and become irretrievable. Take care when managing the inventory while on a Gas Giant's surface.

==Summary==
There are many types of stars and planets, each with their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of gameplay value. <br>

When picking a star to construct a [[Dyson_Sphere|Dyson sphere]] around, it's highly recommended to do it around a star with the highest luminosity (L<sub>☉</sub>) as possible, as many stars can have more than double (~2 L<sub>☉</sub>) if not triple (~3 L<sub>☉</sub>) the energy output than the starter system's star (~1 L<sub>☉</sub>). This makes the process much less time-consuming and considerably more effective than even constructing multiple Dyson sphere around lower-luminosity stars.<br><br>Some rare veins and ores can only be found on certain types of planets, and are impossible to find anywhere else.

==Types of planets==
Planets can be split into several categories. Each has their own rule of spawning when star system is generated.

*Habitable: Planets that have enough liquid water to sustain the existence of life. These can be found in their star's habitable zone. A typical habitable planet has abundant fossil resources such as [[Coal]] and [[Crude Oil]].
*Hot: Planets with very high temperature and exotic oceans which contain various fluids. These can be found orbiting close to their star. A typical hot planet has abundant metallic resources such as [[Iron Ore]] and [[Titanium Ore]].
*Frozen: Planets with very low temperature and frozen-over oceans of ice. These can be found orbiting far from their star, near the edge of their system. A typical frozen planet has abundant crystalline resources such as [[Fire Ice]].
*Barren: Planets devoid of liquids. These may spawn anywhere in a system. Most barren worlds have abundant non-metallic resources such as [[Stone]], [[Silicon Ore]], and [[Soil Pile|Soil Piles]].
* Giant: Huge, gaseous planets without any solid landmass. Icarus cannot land on these planets, but can gather resources from low orbit.

Each planet type has several attributes:
*Common resources: The types of common resources that are sure to spawn.
*Rare resources: The type(s) of rare resources that '''''MAY''''' spawn.
*Ocean: Whether or not the planet has an ocean, and what the ocean is composed of.
*Construction area: The expected percentage of landmass that can be utilized for construction if no [[Foundation]] is used.
*Wind energy ratio: The expected effectiveness of [[Wind Turbine|Wind Turbines]]. Zero wind energy ratio means that no atmosphere exists.
*Solar energy ratio: The expected effectiveness of [[Solar Panel|Solar Panels]]. This largely depends on the planet's distance from its star and the star's type.

[https://www.reddit.com/r/Dyson_Sphere_Program/comments/lc8q7p/for_reference_continuous_grid_band_sizes/ According to this reddit post], all terrestrial planets appear to follow the same grid layout:
<nowiki>
5x20 (Including the pole, forms a 9 diameter disk around the pole)
5x40
5x80
5x100
10x160
10x200
15x300
15x400
25x500
25x600
50x800
80x1000
Equator (1x1000)
</nowiki>

These grids meet at latitudes of approximately 88, 86, 84, 82, 79, 75, 70, 65, 55, 46, 28, and 0 degrees North and South.

When building on a seam between the different bands, buildings will snap to the band closest to the equator.

|-
!Class!!Image !! Description
|-
|'''<big>Class M star<big>'''||[[File:M type star.png|150px|M type star]]||The lowest mass stars are commonly referred to as Red Dwarf stars. They are the most abundant class of star, but their luminosity is very low, making it very impractical to construct [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s or even [[Dyson Sphere#The Dyson Swarm|Dyson swarm]]s around them.
|-
|'''<big>Class K star<big>'''||[[File:K type star.png|150px|K type star]]||These low-mass stars typically have a luminosity of < 1 L<sub>☉</sub>, making them poor sites for construction of [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s. [[Dyson Sphere#The Dyson Swarm|Dyson swarm]]s may still be of some use, since they are much less resource-intensive.
|-
|'''<big>Class G star<big>'''||[[File:G type star.png|150px|G type star]]||This class of star is the one that our Sun falls into. They typically have a luminosity of ~1 L<sub>☉</sub>. While they can make good use of [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s and [[Dyson Sphere#The Dyson Swarm|Dyson swarm]]s, higher-luminosity stars may be a more suitable location for Dyson sphere construction.

The starting system is always around a class G star.
|-
|'''<big>Class F star<big>'''||[[File:F type star.png|150px|F type star]]||These stars have a higher luminosity than Class G stars but are around the same size. This makes them better sites for construction of [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s, if no Class A or higher stars are nearby.
|-
|'''<big>Class A star<big>'''||[[File:A type star.png|150px|A type star]]||This class have fairly high luminosity, while not being particularly large. This makes them good sites for construction of [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s if materials are limited, or there are no nearby Class B or O stars.
|-
|'''<big>Class B star<big>'''||[[File:B type star.png|150px|B type star]]||These stars have a high luminosity, while not being as large as Class O. This makes them excellent sites for construction of [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s if materials are more limited.
|-
|'''<big>Class O star<big>'''||[[File:O type star.png|150px|O type star]]||The brightest star type, ideal for constructing [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s around them. However, they also tend to be the largest, and so require more materials to do so.
|-
|'''<big>Giant star<big>'''||[[File:Red giant.png|150px|Red giant]]|| Giant stars are special stars that are basically larger versions of main sequence stars. Giants are generally >10R⊙ and have higher luminosity than their main sequence counterparts. Depending on their spectral class, they are referred to as Red, Yellow, White, or Blue Giants. M-class Red Giants and B-class Blue Giants are the most common giant stars in the universe, while Yellow and White Giants are extremely rare.
|-
|'''<big>White Dwarf<big>'''||[[File:White dwarf.png|150px|White dwarf]]|| A stellar remnant left over after the death of a star that was not massive enough to form a neutron star or black hole, composed of electron-degenerate matter. Low luminosity makes them poor sites for construction of [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s. [[Dyson Sphere#The Dyson Swarm|Dyson swarm]]s may still be of some use, due to their considerably lower resource requirements.

Planets orbiting White Dwarves are guaranteed to have veins of [[Fractal Silicon]], [[Kimberlite Ore]], and [[Grating Crystal]].
|-
|'''<big>Neutron Star<big>'''||[[File:Neutron star.png|150px|Neutron star]]||A stellar remnant following a supernova, composed of neutrons with a shell of electron-degenerate matter. Low luminosity makes them poor sites for construction of [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s. [[Dyson Sphere#The Dyson Swarm|Dyson swarm]]s may still be of some use with their much lower resource requirements.

Only a single Neutron Star generates per cluster. Due to their low temperature and luminosity, all planets orbiting a Neutron Star are frozen worlds.

Neutron Star systems are one of the only places that [[Unipolar Magnet|Unipolar Magnets]] can be found.
|-
|'''<big>Black Hole<big>'''||[[File:Black hole.png|150px|Black hole]]||A massive stellar remnant following a supernova, it has been crushed into a point so dense and with such immense gravity that light itself bends around it and is sucked in. They are usually surrounded by an accretion disc. Their extremely low luminosity makes construction of [[Dyson Sphere|Dyson sphere]]s or [[Dyson Sphere#The Dyson Swarm|Dyson swarm]]s a vanity project, as they will produce little power.

Like Neutron Stars, only one Black Hole generates per cluster, and all planets orbiting Black Holes are frozen worlds. Black Hole systems are the only place outside of Neutron Star systems where [[Unipolar Magnet]]s can be found.

==State of stellar objects==

Planets can have multiple physical attributes and states, which are listed below.

{| class="wikitable sortable"
|+
|-
!Name !!Description!!Image
|-
|'''<big>Tidal locking (TL)<big>''' ||Planets that has the same rotational period as orbital period, and consequently has one side permanently facing its host star or planet. Very useful to capture the host star's energy via [[Solar_Panel|solar panels]] and/or [[Ray_Receiver|ray receivers]]||
|-
|'''<big>Sattelite (SAT)<big>''' ||Astronomical objects that orbit another object that isn't a star, or in simpler terms, a moon. The starter planet is one example of such object. However, building [[EM-Rail_Ejector|EM-rail ejectors]] would be problematic, as the orbiting parent can block the sun, rendering them useless until the orbiting object passes, this decreases the time the [[EM-Rail_Ejector|EM-rail ejectors]] can fire sails, and decreases their effeciency.||
|-
|'''<big>Reverse Rotation (RR)<big>''' ||The astronomical object in question rotates in the reverse direction, or clockwise when viewed from one of the poles.||
|-
|'''<big>Horizontal Rotation (HR)<big>''' || The planet has an axial inclination close to 90° causing it to rotate around a horizontal axis when viewed from the stellar poles. Still experiences seasons.||
|-
|'''<big>Orbital Resonance (OR)<big>''' ||The planet has longer days. Orbital resonance 1:2 would mean a cycle of two days per year and 1:4 four days per year. Orbital resonance of 1:1 would be tidal locked.||
|-
|'''<big>Plural Satellites (PS)'''
|The gas giant has two planets orbiting it instead of one. The planets will sometimes be only 1000 meters away from each other.
