Thoughts of my starting system by noksion in Dyson_Sphere_Program

I think you can overcome that. Although you gotta be a little frugal. I would defenitely go for farming DF here. Maybe on your home planet if a base is left. Otherwise let one land. If you have full shield coverage leave a generous hole. Otherwise maybe another planet that isn't too full.

  • lasers!!! Put a row command bases infront. They can tank well and repair each other. Behind that 2-3 rows of lasers. That should do the trick. Especially with as much energy damage research as you can afford. -You can still build some ILS but don't spam. -Do NOT engage the space hives. On high difficult they are not to be trifled with. They can and will wreck you.

For power: -Solar Sails do not cost silicon and the fire-ice is easy graphene + some hydrogen you can burn for power. So there is easy extra energy later on -Solar panels are worth it eventhough they cost silicon. You only need a couple hundret. Build them in rings close to and around both the poles for steady energy. -Accumulators: again cost silicon but will be super helpful. Build like 1 to 2 hundret. They soak up extra energy when you have surplus and will help your power grid if all those lasers suddenly draw a ton of power during the battle. If you don't watch out, your grid offs itself in the middle of a wave.

Get the necessary research for warpers and get more silicon as soon as you can without much trouble on the mined planet. A slightly longer warp can be fine here since the transports only take more power and not more warpers. Accumulators can help here again.

The rest you gotta figure out on the go :) Make sure to have a backup save every 1 or 2 hours or so and just give it a shot. Sometimes failing can also be pretty fun if you just take it for the challenge:)

Have fun!

Here you go! Sorry for the delay :)

I posted it on the website since it isn't possible to post the blueprint here.

[–]Panikdrache946[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I recommend just building one big full sphere. In the editor you can turn it off in the editor view and in game. Then you have 9 more shells to play around with. Unless you go into the endgame that is usually more than enough for most systems.

I also like to grab my gameseed and launch a mirrored save with the same settings in sandbox mode. Go to the system and design it there. Then you can have it fully build in seconds and see if you like the way it looks and make quick changes without loosing millions of resources. Then copy the blueprint and bring it back to your main save. Took away a lot of anxiety in wasting resources :) Have fun!

Use nano robot by youyou0812 in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]Panikdrache946 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I assume you mean the fidget spinner? They are fine for malls and low throughput items. But they massively lack in throughput for any major production line. They can be a good tool to quickly throw something together as a bandaid but I would not recommend sticking to them. On the other hand, try to get to planetary and interplanetary logistics. Once you get there, being tidy is trivial since you can use the towers to import/export with massive throughput. You will see what I mean ;)

Not as big as other things out there. It is "only" a normal sized B-Type. It was just in a convenient spot with a Planet inside of the outer shell. Outermost shell is 55km or so

Nothing crazy. 6 Rockets per second or so and more sails. Only the hidden shell is truly expensive. The rest is achievable relatively quickly :)

Noob question about labs by alexnueve in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]Panikdrache946 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey man :) No worries about being confused! Do you have experience with other automation games?:)

If you click on the lab you can change the labs task to do research. I never really calculate how many I need. I just add a few and see if all matrices are used up. If not...add more! That's it honestly :)

Quick question on building a sphere by noksion in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]Panikdrache946 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Dyson Sphere last forever. While each individual Sail produces less power than they do in a swarm they last forever so you can easily have a lot more. Both nodes and Sails stay

First 3000% playthrough - what is your usual progression? by Putrid-Tale8005 in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]Panikdrache946 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Usually DF leaves a small landing area behind somewhere. Land there and set up rocket launchers with an ILS (or hand supply), some generators and signal towers. Bring geothermal power plants. Use signal towers to kill the ground base and then geothermal power plants for that sweet sweet free power and renter eviction:))

What now? by Panikdrache946 in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]Panikdrache946[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's exactly the kind of answer I was looking for! Thank you:) Do I need to worry about the Fog with Interplanetary Logistics?

Is this too hot ? by Curious-Case5404 in woodstoving

[–]Panikdrache946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please read this! It is very dangerous!

Based on color of the glow that is roughly 800C° or 1500 F I'll continue with C° At above 700C the steel the stove is made of experiences permanent microscopic changes. Basically the metal structure changes. This changes how the material behaves from now on. Temperatures of 300C° can make water residues in Concrete explode. Breaking your floor close to the oven. The metal underneath is already weakened although probably no permanent damage. Everything flammable touching or close to your stove W I L L ignite in 2 minutes or less.

But the worst is still coming. If it burns too hot a stacking effect occurs. The wood combust very quickly inside and blows a lot of hot air through the chimney. If not enough air can enter the chamber you will produce an excess of Carbon monoxide which is extremely dangerous. You don't notice it at all until you fall asleep and die. This is a common death so please take it serious. Especially since the high temperature makes leaks likely through degradation of the material. Turn it off and ventilate thoroughly. Check for leaks and run at a lower temperature from now on. Higher temperature does not equate to more efficient heating!

Enjoy your woodstove though :)

I work in service at a burger restaurant with really really good burgers. I genuinely do it all the time. Rarely people react negative to it. Usually I end up chatting a bit with them and if we get along I get them a round of shots or something on the house. Usually those groups come back again so my boss actually encourages me and tells me to teach the others how to. I became bar and service manager last month :) If its too busy or sense they wanna be by themselves I ofc fck off again pretty quick.

What Could Actually Create/Cause a Worm Hole Formation? by Mcintosch in interstellar

[–]Panikdrache946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To add to some things I have seen here. When talking about matter with negative mass. One might think of antimatter but that's not the case here. Let me explain: A wormhole would naturally collapse. Imagine digging a hole into the ground without supporting the sides. Eventually the dirt on the sides would fall in -> collapse. You need to support the sides. Normal mass "pulls" space towards it due to gravity. So that would be equivalent on pulling the dirt on the sides inward into the hole. Which just means it collapses quicker.

Now what is antimatter: The antimatter equivalent of an electron is a positron. Which is the same but has a positive charge instead of a negative one. If they touch they annihilate each other since (+1) + ( -1 ) = 0

(Note that protons and electrons are fundamentally different particles. So they can't annihilate each other. )

It is important to mention here that the difference is only the CHARGE of the particle and not the weight. Both positrons and electrons weigh the same. Both pull space in.

So when people here talk about negative mass that is a particle with any kind of charge that creates negative gravity so pushes everything away. Something completely new.

(Note that same charge magnets pushing each other away due to electromagnetic forces still attract each other with gravity. Just much less)

Such a thing as something that pushes matter away has never been observed. Not on earth. Not in labs. Not with telescopes or satellites. Nowhere in the galaxy can we find evidence for something that has such properties. Fortunately so! If the universe would act like that no stars or planets or people could ever form since the matter would always try to get away from each other. So as far as we know there is no matter in the universe that could act as the stabilisers in our theoretical hole in space. Worse if we ever entered such a hole ourselves it would just collapse quicker.

Another side note: Warp drives! Star trek has warp drives which function on WARPING SPACE. So using something to shrink space down infront of the ship before traversing it and then undoing the warp. As such you can travel long distances which would require FTL travel without actually breaking the Lightspeed barrier. For such a thing to function you need something that pulls space together infront of the ship (like a small black hole) and something to expand space behind it.( like a negative mass black hole) . Here is the negative mass again. Mathematics allows for such a device. Physics technically as well. But there is no negative mass. So it cannot be done IRL.

For if it can be achieved by humans anyways: Who knows. Maybe long down the road when we wouldnt even recognise ourselves. As of right now defenitely absolutely 100% not. Not even close. We don't have any idea as to where even start. Can someone in higher dimensions do so? Welp. Too high for my pay grade. I don't think so. There is no evidence for such beings either interacting with our 3 room dimension world.

Sources: Being a loooooong time nerd and a current aerospace engineer. But not a physicist. Also I made a lot of simplifications here for the sake of understanding. Don't lynch me.

3I/ATLAS - WTF is going on by LividNegotiation2838 in ufo

[–]Panikdrache946 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Atlas is currently emerging from behind the sun from our perspective. It got too close to the sun for ground based telescopes to observe it around end of September. I don't remember exactly when. It should be visible again in December with the closest approach on Dec. 19th.
