It would be great if the solar capacitor worked as a battery for the Wind Turbine, hint hint!

I kinda thought of that at first but then i said "It's called a solar capacitor but either way i'm glad to have another source of power like wind turbines. I haven't tried the geothermal one yet but it's nice to have options.

A wind turbine only works in conjunction with a power generator. It does not generate energy, it reduces the energy consumption that the generator produces.

It does.
Check the pda.

Didn't see that. It's a nice improvement having other sources of power production.

You'll still need at least one solar panel but any negative power will charge it.

I'm not seeing anything about the new parts, I had followed the steps to update the pda for a current play through with the new version. Would validating files and then running that command again work or do I need a new start?

I did that PDA thing but hadn't spotting the wind turbines. I started a new game myself but i also spawned in my base already or a miner SV instead of waiting around. It's up to you.

It's under the new power section in the project Eden Empyriopedia.

Operating temp greater than 15 C? Wind turbines supply power at the arctic and antarctic stations in the real world and this operating temp makes them pretty useless at Ningues where winds are plentiful but solar is not.

Also the PDA states "fair temperature". We have to build the turbine to get the specific temperature requirements.

Ah, my scenario did not update then as I have no power section. Thanks - I'll have to unsubscribe and resubscribe to up it.

They are on the tooltip on the tech tree.

Ah yes. Many thanks sir. But the operating temp requirements? Any hope we can get this on Ningues?

There may be areas on ningues you can use them, but I can't change the requirements as those are hard coded due to them being crops.

What I very well may do is for RE2 change it so they use the same activation as the geothermal generators (so they will be usable on specific planet types) but not sure I will do that or not.
