Cheese's Concentrated Solar


Adds concentrated solar energy based around heliostat mirrors, which can point at solar power towers to generate heat for heliothermal energy production, or solar lens towers to generate giant lasers.

b [Partial fix 0.4.3] Quality inneffective.

Tower claims to benefit from Quality in the factoripedia, but it does nothing. It would be nice if either the mirrors or the tower help to generate more heat.

I admit I have not tested this or properly integrated with SA, but I saw that quality increased the tower's power output no? Or does that not get applied?

Hi, I think that the (maximum) output value in the tooltip only exists due the solar intensity indicator burning a "solar fluid" at a slow rate. The "consumption" property is increased automatically by 30% pr. tier by the game, but this barely matters, and it does not change the output of the heat-generating script. I had to fix this in my own mod, Thermal Solar Power (Lite). [Edit:] The custom gui correctly displays the unchanged output.

Yep. Thanks. Added quality scaling for towers, mirror quality still has no effect.

All right!👍
