    Has anyone looked into efficiency of the power blocks in different formations? I have noticed that they seem MOST efficient in lattice work patterns. Below are assembled power block formations, complete with their recharge rate. The contraints for this were:

    • 4 power blocks
    • single layer, 3x3 grid

    Factors for winning formation:

    • Least amount of space used
    • Biggest amount of power recharge (in e/sec)

    Linked are all of the formations I could come up with that don't "double up" as far as general form are concerned, and the winner is foremost:




    I linked the images instead of loading them inline, A) to save on bandwidth(images are hosted on my GoDaddy hosting B) save others loading speed on this post.

    I would like to hear from others on what their general experience is with the power cores. Trying to assemble solid info on what is "optimal" for the power cores.

    NOTE: I have not extended these tests into multi layer contructs for obvious time based resons. These are just my quick notes I have on the single layer, 3x3 grid formations.
