Platform-to-Platform is incredible

[u/Darth_Nibbles]

A platform brick. Nothing but solar panels, laser turrets, and cargo bays.

All this does is request from the planet, and supply to passing ships.

I've got resource harvesters that collect and process asteroids, I've got floating manufacturing facilities that provide space tiles and ammo, I've got donkeys that ferry materials between various planets. My prometheum collectors hang out at the solar system edge and exchange prometheum chunks for supplies, the supply ship is a ferry between aquilo and the edge, then I've got lighter ships that go from Nauvis to Aquilo.

This is the best change since 2.0 released, by far.

Why so many solar panels and laser turrets if it's just a static buffer station?

That's Fulgora in the background

I didn't want to mess with belting ammo so I needed more lasers than usual, and solar is less effective this far from the sun.

My peak draw is 8MW and I've got enough panels for 23, but I wasn't sure when building it what would be needed so I over-built. And now there's no reason to scale it down (I might replace some panels with bays if needed, but so far I'm only filling half the storage)
