Hughestrog Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 *pout* but i have hydroelectric! how do i use it? lol Both hydroelectric and geothermal use the basic formula: [1000+(20*Yield)]*#Power Plants=Total Power Output For Coal Power Stations: (10*#Power Plants)= Total Power Output Note: each power plant needs 30 coal/turn For Fission: (10000*#Power Plants)= Total Power Output Note: each power plant requires 100 processed radioactives Hope this helps.

Octus Imperium Posted September 24, 2004 Report Share Posted September 24, 2004 QuoteHaving carried a colleagues laptop for her back to the home office for repairs, TSA looks at you really funny for having two laptops.... (Some of them look funny no matter what, but that goes without saying.) Unquote So that was you?!?!? Next time I will roll up my hard copy of my turn and smack you upside the head with it. Two laptops indeed! And I don't look funny either! Sakarissa Yep, that must have been me. And I suspect I get hauled over to the special treatment line because I look funny. Now about that Avatar....

Hughestrog Posted September 25, 2004 Report Share Posted September 25, 2004 hmm it does... it doesn't seem to be too worth it. =P Looks like you'll be converting those RR to radioactives- then to Processed radioactives (and remember to build the reactors!- or did you start with some?)

Morgwen Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 What constitutes massive system.... many orbits -- 10, 20, 30??? Larry ...hopefully you get real lucky and get a massive system with many orbits and plenty of moons andasteroid belts. Then again you could just get your HW as your only orbit in the system. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradigm Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 I don't know if it's a record, but I know I found a system with 40 planets/moons/belts. It was mostly gas giants and their many moons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgwen Posted March 13, 2005 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 On Startup Resources, (I'm including assets here also), I've a question on Fleets. On my initial turn, I am given 4 Fleet Scouts -- call them Recon 101,102,103,104. All are listed as Fleet Scouts and assigned to 'different' Groups. After reading on the various areas about problems detatching a ship from a fleet before moving them, I am wondering... 1. Are the four ships actually (1) Fleet or 4 seperate. They did seperate actions on the initial turn. Don't want to write orders for (4) seperate and then find they couldn't be carried out. Thanks!

Krelnett_of_Kraan Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 They're four separate fleets. As far as we can remember, though, all the Pathfinders in queue to be built are assigned to the same fleet, so that's annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as we can remember, though, all the Pathfinders in queue to be built are assigned to the same fleet, so that's annoying. If I remember you start with four fleets, three with one ship and one with the rest of the ships. Each fleet is moved separately but the ships move as a group so you do not need to provide orders to each ship individually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgwen Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 Thanks to both of you for answers. Doing a startup is turning out to be a little nerve wracking, but very fun. -- such as what to do w/100+ Mil RMs Larry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krelnett_of_Kraan Posted March 14, 2005 Report Share Posted March 14, 2005 Add to them. As your production ramps up, you'll need them. Another common tactic is to DISM some of your stripmines and build more ICs right off the bat. You can always change them back later if you're running low on Raws, but in the beginning the extra industrial capacity is better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krelnett is right about needing more capacity but I found the most difficult part of the beginning was avoiding mistakes in my production. I found that I did not avoid them no matter how hard I tried. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
