Who else has problems with the factory power consumption?

[JinM]

And how did you guys fix it?

 

[Antikristianos]

1. ensure that the reactor is big enough.
2. give factories the highest priority in the reactor screen.
3. use logistics chamber for factory energy efficency
4. turn off factories when you don't need them.

You can also include reactor power chambers.

not really since the reactor boost is a hotbar usable for ships it has no use on stations.

I meant the base enhancement. It's not much but it can help in some cases.

The first power chamber boost works as a passive.

Btw. I fixed it with login out and in again.

And I followed the steps that were given from the top as well beforehand. But I allready figured that 3 days ago, thanks for trying to help anyway.

I just have a stupid large reactor so it doesn't matter.

the reactor power chamber isnt that good imo. Iirc it gives you 10% additional e/s, but since chambers' size is between 25% and 50% of your reactor's sze, you better add another 10% blocks to the reactor itself and some stabilzers and you'd still end up with less than 25-50% more blocks.

Yes, indeed economically inefficient.

But for example I used the power chamber, because I had no more space for additional reactor and stabilizer blocks.
