Power needs changing.

Post by Schmidty »

Coal power plants are the most efficient in all scenarios and all games. Even dark matter is not as efficient cost and output wise as coal power plants. You really need to up the output of nuclear, hydro, fission, fusion, antimatter, darkmatter, etc. At this time there is zero reasons to build anything else than coal power plants the entire game. Please make power logical in terms of efficiency as in the greater the technology, the more efficient they become. Efficiency is measured in the cost to build and maintenance compared to the output it gives. Also, make the industrial goods amount cost more for later power techs once you make them more efficient as a counter.

Would rather see the removal of the hardcoded Oil-based city-powergeneration.
Or make it customizable in wmdata file.

The tech tree could do with some usefulness in my opinion, but yeah we both know its kinda pointless. Just to bring the gaps of different power clooser its worth it in my opinion. If done correctly, so yeah, prolly not an option for BG. But that doesnt take away that some regions pay 4x or more for energy then an optimised player region. Well that isnt true either, apparently there are also price adjustments besides production adjustments, so yeah, whatever.
Agreed. Coal is my go to power source as there is an excessive abundance of it worldwide. And it uses an alternative fuel that doesn't seem to constantly be in short supply no matter how much I build.
