So excited for this mod

mk levels of HAWTs.

nice
wait didnt u forget the blades for the last one?
also i see mk1-3 have constants footprint while mk4 is larger right ?

Looks very good
Waiting for some news about production chains changes

Mk. 04 has evolved beyond the need for blades.

After Watching Minute Physics video on wind turbines, I get an itch.

The mk04 is really nice though.

LOL i got that in my recommendations a few days ago ,
now we can analize the animation speed relative to turbine blade area

or the blades are inside

Is there any plan for something like this?

MK04 is more advanced that our common technology. Its a futuristic approach based on what people says about the future of wind turbines. Blades sux,with time they probably goes towards what jet engines do.

About hydro-power is almost impossible due the factorio limitations. To have a gradient of fluid we must have HEIGHT its a 2D game and even that may be simulated, would demands lots of work and knowledge i and my partner King, dont have.

have fun with that, i wont change a thing in that level of detail

Is it possible to have structures in the water? I'm thinking of generating power from ocean currents, like wind turbines but underwater.

Cant promise.

Here the HAWTS and VAWTS.

NICE
But now i am curious what will the the mechanical difference between the 2 types ?
raw power? variability ?

Aerial Turbines. Better than stay on ground, higher altitudes have best winds. They will roam around collecting wind and deliver to the platform the energy collected.

These look fun, I look forward to getting to use them. How does the high tech one compare to the main four tiers?

something between mk03 and mk04

so like speed 3.5 or so
if mk1 is 1

will there be a 1:1 ratio between ports and sky turbines or we can make 1 port and add a lot of turbines?

also atm you presented 3 types of turbines what would be the pro and cons of all ?

also is there a proximity penalty ?
