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.
I just wondered if someone had a blueprint that could fit the full 546 Heliosat Mirrors, or if it was even possible.
I did my own blueprint (https://pastebin.com/jA5hSqYm) but I only managed to fit 528 mirrors, which gets the tower to 580/600c.
I am also not sure if mirrors can only be partially in the solar tower's range to work, and if so, how much to they need to be in, considering that they are 3x3.
It wasn't that hard to do honestly, if anything you can cram in some more actually. The trick is that a mirror doesn't have to be fully within range, just it's center.
Though this is at default settings where it's 60 MW at max, so if config has it set to generate more then I suppose it'll be harder to actually make use of all that heat, given the tower only outputs up to 600C, limiting range for heat pipes.
