Does 188 solar panels sound right for a space platform over Fulgora?
I'm building a platform over Nauvis where solar panels give 300% power (180 kW). On the space map, it says solar panels on Fulgora only give 120% power (72 kW). I built a platform and got a general maximum power requirement of 22,512.5 kW so according to the math, I'd need 187.6 panels to cover this?

I could go nuclear but I'm not ready for that now. I only have access to Vulcanus tech currently. I'd love to be able to shave this down some, but I don't want my ship to ever run out of power.

well if that feeds your power need, it is right, but if you dont wanne do nuke, maybe try to use more green modules?

Yeah, I moduled anything that I could.

thats mine for the inner planets, idles at 1,5mw at fulgora, does produce max 2,4mw there, when i cut down the engines to 1 it even works with 400% asteroids ;D

like i said, some green eco modules to save power are quite good

So your max output over Nauvis would be something like 6 mW?

yeah, as it doesnt need ammo idle at 1mw/5.8mw
