Solar plant in Home of Light, when supply and demand go horribly wrong

Post by Enuo » Sat, 5. Nov 05, 15:23

I made a power plant in home of light, gave it a buyer/seller transport, and left seta on overnight, i came back to a HORRIBLE framerate figuring compuer needed to be restarted, when i checked my sector map, there were hundreds of ships flocking my power plant. For comparison it takes 3 taps of page down to get to the bottom of the ship listing in argon prime, in home of light it takes TEN pushes of of page down to get to the bottom. Theres at least 20 centaurs, 30 novas, and 50++ discovers flying around it. And i do mean around it, the station is surrounded by a solid block of shapes on the sector map.

(im not sure policy on double posting, but i think this is more of a bug than the dynamic universe and argon lack of power plants, so im going to post this in the bug section too)

1 seller is not enough. You need 3 fast transports 3000 cargo to shift the energy as even the medium makes a lot of energy. I have mine selling @ 17 so not to attract the npc and make a nice profit.

My argon military power is going to your scenario and boron have nothing left of their strength. So I thought to support the boron with weapons and factories to balance the power between both, seems to be working :)

Argon does not lack energy. They have a XL and a M in Ore Belt, a L and a M in The Wall, a XL and a L in Power Circle, a L and a M in Antigonie memorial.


Normally this would be more then enough, but the AI's traders are just so incompetent.
