End Product

Use the EM-Rail Ejector to launch a large number of solar sails to form Dyson Swarm, which can effectively obtain the radiant energy of stars.

Summary

Solar Sails are consumable items required for the creation of dyson swarms. They are used in the EM Rail Ejector to launch them into orbit around a star. The energy collected by Solar Sails can only be collected using a Ray Receiver.

Production Chain

2x Solar Sail

= 1x Graphene (recipes make 2)

= 3x Energetic Graphite

= 6x Coal Ore

+ 1x Sulfuric Acid (Recipe makes 4)

= 8x Stone Ore

+ 4x Water

+ 6x Refined Oil

= 6x Crude Oil (extra: 3x Hydrogen)

- or -

= 1x Graphene (recipes make 2)

= 2x Fire Ice (extra: 1x Hydrogen)

+ 1x Photon Combiner

= 2x Prism

= 3x Glass

= 6x Stone Ore

+ 1x Circuit Board (Recipe makes 2)

= 2x Iron Ingot

= 2x Iron Ore

+ 1x Copper Ingot

= 1x Copper Ore

Total Raw Materials

• 1x Copper Ore
• 2x Iron Ore
• 6x Stone Ore

And EITHER:

• 2x Fire Ice

OR:

• 6x Crude Oil
• 8x (more) Stone Ore
• 4x Water

Player Tips & Tricks

Since Solar Sails have a limited lifespan, the power production of a dyson swarm is dependent on the supply of new Solar Sails into orbit. If you stop producing or launching solar sails, the swarm's power generation will decrease as sails expire, until it reaches 0.
