GP – Hydroelectric Dam
Updated for 07-Sep-2021 update
Hydroelectric Dam on Mars, this is a first!
Requires a steady supply of water to fill internal reservoir, this then flows through the turbines to provide power, overnight a minimal output is supplied while the system moves water back to the top ready for the next day.
3 upgrades available (with working icons)
Turbine 2 – +25% power, +25% maint build up/hour, +2 maint resource
Turbine 3 – +25% power, +25% maint build up/hour, +2 maint resource
Increased capacity – +100% capacity
Cost
Concrete 200,
Metals 100,
Electronics 50,
Machine Parts 100.
Maintenance Machine Parts 2
Power output
Initial 5 day / 1 night
Max (no upgrades) 250 day / 1 night
Max (upgraded) 750 day / 1.5 night
Note, as elevation has a significant impact I’ve ignored it for these figures
The "test" level varies between 15-95% boost, choose placement carefully.
Water input/output 10
Initial capacity 250
75% conversion (meaning some water is lost while filling – addded to make this less OP)
Custom build menu icon (under wonder catagory)
(Please note, building is supposed to look like screenshots, however sometimes it doesn’t want to listen to the coding and the towers appear white…)
