g How are Beacons Configured?

4 years ago

Helfima (or anyone else) could you please explain how the numbers entered in Beacons for a recipe affect the outcome? The default 4 affecting one and 1.2 per beacon don't seem intuitive. I know there are commonly referred to 8 beacon and 12 becon setups for assemblers. Such as two rows of beacons on either side of a line of assemblers or completely circline an assembler. Could you perhaps include some screenshots of setup types and the numbers that should be put in?

Thanks so much!

Indeed, the "1.2" value has always been obscur to me. Some clarification would be greatly appreciated.

in this sample https://imgur.com/dDNkjQi, the ratio is 1.41 to "assembler per beacon" is just for power consumption
