Cheappower
« on: May 25, 2007, 11:22:00 AM »
Heyho
i got the cheappower.pak and i tested some things and i found out:

If I'm building more transformators in front of a solarplant they are producing much more power. Would it be possible if that doesn't work? because of that you can get much power without transporting any goods =)

argh..
you did not understand what i want Wink


Normally a solarplant with one transistor has "max 94units/per day" ....
when i'm building 12 transistors..  is uses 192592 units per day

That means:
With one solarplant with 12 transistors i can get more power than with 1000 Coal-powerplants...
it's a bit silly, isn't it?

So i wanted somebody to forbid it ...
because every powerplant is limited because you don't get enough coal/oil or something else... but the solarplant can produce unlimited!!!

Now understood what i mean?

So don't do it, that's why it's not in the main pak.

Seems not to be a special problem of the cheappower pak.
It's a well know bug that you can place more than one transformator on an industry chain to get more money for the energy-transport.

But it will consume 4x per transformer of raw input ...

Mab i don't speak about the bug with moremoneyforsamepower ..
i speakk about unlimitedpowerofonesolarplant


But it's the same with the windpowerplants... okay they produce less but you also get more power without doing anything for it Cheesy
and they are in the mainpak

like Raven said: build only one transformer/solarplant.
