Finally got to use the information provided in this video. Went smooth and worked like a charm! Again, thank you for the work you put in. Your videos have helped me understand the game better.
Even a year later you are still helping out new players as I built this on my Moon base and Asteroid base. This setup was great and let me double my power input(sadly the double solar arrays was removed). So I built it and was great but...I built it to close to my parked Frigate (connector and pads for it to land can't be moved) and had to tear it down and push it further out then rebuild it with no issues.
I'm soo happy that this is helping people! Seriously! Keep an eye out for the next video! I'll be explaining all things to do with the upgrade modules. It's a supplemental episode to the survival guide series.
For new players watching this, the comparison with the wind turbines: Each turbine flower with five turbines caps out at around 2 megawatts. The solar tower Jago built caps out at just under 13 megawatts. These numbers are affected by the weather conditions and whether or not it's daytime, as you might expect. It takes 12.5 or so of those panels to equal one turbine flower. A small grid solar panel produces the same amount of power by volume in the world and can also be double-layered but they use more materials per watt to build. If you have to build it from stone, the turbines are considerably easier to gather the resources for since they're mostly iron. All of this together means that, in general and if it's an option (not every planet has wind) you should probably build a turbine flower first, especially since they work at night without the need for a battery.
It's good to see all new SE content makers that have been popping up lately. I don't need a how-to guide, myself, but I'll likely keep watching you anyway. Looks like you're making good stuff. I like your editing style.

4:10. As i am playing along with you, It was the front door that wasn't closed for me :D
@@dylanvh9465 lol we all make silly mistakes

@@chrisburrows9758 I really wish I could get back to making videos. I miss it.
Thanks again for this series. The way You are explaining stuff is briliant.

You're 100% right. I should have mentioned that wind is always the better option when available. Thank you.
