For the layout of Factorio's solar energy, players need to consider multiple factors such as terrain, resource distribution, factory scale, future expansion, etc., and rationally arrange solar panels to ensure efficient energy supply. They also need to pay attention to regular inspections and timely repair of damaged equipment. .
1. Choose the right terrain
Solar panels need to face the sun, so you need to choose a flat and sunny terrain, and consider avoiding shaded areas such as big trees, hills, etc.
2. Resource distribution
When planning your solar layout, you need to consider the distribution of nearby resources.
If there are abundant resources near the solar panels, they can be placed near the resource collector to facilitate resource utilization.
3. Factory scale
Depending on the size of the factory, different numbers of solar panels are planned.
Small factories can use just a few solar panels, while large factories require many more to meet energy needs.
4. Consider future expansion
When planning the solar layout, future expansion plans need to be considered. If you plan to expand the factory size in the future, you need to reserve more space to add solar panels.
5. Reasonable layout
When laying out solar panels, their arrangement direction and spacing need to be considered.
Inconsistent arrangement directions may affect power generation efficiency, and spacing that is too small may cause overlapping shadows.
