I am currently working on a large carrier style ship, to function as almost a mobile homebase for a faction, carrying many different ships, but also heavily armed and shielded. The power requirements are going to be IMMENSE. So i started thinking, what about docked reactors, multiple power cores projecting power into the main ship, to get around the inefficiency of exceeding the benefits of boxdim reactors?
Basically, what im asking is, can people work out the power output of such a design, and what the threshold would be for either method of power supply to be more effective/efficient for both blocks used and actual power requirements?
(I have a bunch of other reasons for wanting to do this, ease of repair, etc, but i really want to know how viable this could actually be, and if this could actually be a preferable method to just spamming blocks once we exceed 1 mill power gen.)
