That glorious moment of putting your first oil power plant online...

This B**** took me 2 full work days to achieve. 32x Fuel-Powered generators, fully overclocked, on 600m³ Turbo fuel. Totalling to 20000MW, minus the 2000MW that it takes to keep it online. So aprox 18k MW Net.

Also got aprox 110 plastic and 105 rubber from the fuels side production. Efficiency is all, Nothing goes to waste. Except of course the amount of that which goes into the sink :D

OOOOMPPFFFF!!! I hope this will last me for a while! Not looking forward doing that again. And I swear to the gods, if this eventually goes offline due to an error I made... I will throw my keyboard to the wall!

Oil - black gold, Texas T.

Not really black in this game..... but the glorious moment you want to place lights and.... they are to big for ONE foundation width. Thought they had reduced the size of them, but no

[TyCobb]

Still in the process of building mine. Doing Heavy Oil to Diluted Packaged Fuel.
30 Water Extractors
108 Packagers
108 Refineries (40 HOR, 54 Package Fuel, 14 Residual Plastic)
And should end up with 40,000MW.

Might be able to turn it on tonight, but realistically, I'll have everything connected tomorrow. Not too bad for only 2 pure oil nodes fully overclocked.

just wait until blenders, im using around 3'000 MW to make 70'000MW (112 generators)

im getting this from a new alternate crafting recipe

Where are you building to have the space?

the west side have plenty of space near some oil nodes and there is also the north oil nodes, but if you want the coal and sulfur to make better fuel you will need to run some long belts

North sea, near all the oil nodes I need. Plus the coal/sulfer to the east in the dunes.

I don't think West side has enough oil to have made my project work. I needed 1080m³.

EDIT: UNLESS of course you overclock those nodes. silly me.

the west side have 2 pure and 2 normal, then there is a oil well to that have another 1 pure, 3 normal and 1 impure, so PLENTY of oil

I'm running 9GW with 8 fuel generators overclocked ( using 400m^3 fuel with 4 refineries using 150 crude each overclocked and the resin going towards fabric for filters and sink ). I have another node nearby which will give me an additional 12 overclocked fuel generators with the oil well.

If I go with an alternative fuel, I'd be able to make more. Alternative recipes are worth it. Just do the math.

[kLuns]

I'm preparing the logistics for a 252GW Rocket fuel plant, 2,5GW Turbo fuel and some packaged turbo fuel for trucks.

Oil & water are ready to hook up,
Nitrogen ready to be packaged and there is a miner on the sulfer node.

Thanks... Now I'm depressed. Thought I had achieved greatness with my 20k power plant :D lmao I need a shower to rid me of all the sweat it took.

[MainMan02]

If it is great to you, then you have achieved greatness.

[jdrake5839]

I finished up a 40k turbofuel plant the day before yesterday. Now I finally have enough power to play the game...

Nah it's good. It's even better now that fuel generators are 250MW instead of 150MW and don't need Heavy Modular Frames and Computers anymore. Used to end up building an entire factory just to build fuel generators

[NocheLuz]

I was planning to build the Fuel generator that runs on Rocket Fuel (due to it being Gas so, don't need the pump). I have not calculated the exact ratio yet. But It might need 600 m3 of Oil, almost 500 Compact Coal, and a lot of Nitric Acid to keep up with almost 200 generators.

It is still in the planning phase and I have not even started one thing yet. My actual factories still run on Coal Power at 10 GW.
