the factory grows exponentially, so it'd be watt per second per second
So it's parabolic...

Re: Friday Facts #414 - Spoils of Agriculture


If you think "advanced player" will "produce noticeably more than needed", that's not my definition of "advanced player" :ugeek:

Not a big fan of the idea of spoilage paired with the whole "send it back home" idea, but then again my guess is that provided a reccurent enough supply of rockets, it will eventually stop being an actual problem so long as you clear any bottlenecks and keep short production lines. It is at ...
