Avian Gamers Network

I think I saw somewhere on the Avian boards .. maybe a link to somewhere else that had a pretty decent calculator or spreadsheet .. that calculated how much power was needed for harvesters .. I don't want to stick in way too much power and waste it, but, I don't want to let my harvesters sit for 4 days not running because they ran out either!

Could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks Obo! I may be wrong .. I've been wrong at least twice in my life but, I thought power was a calculated thing based on the percentage of resources being gathered. Is this not correct?

Power, as maintenance, is a flat rate. It will tell you on the status screen what the rate is (although it doesn't tell you the time scale).
So a personal mineral extractor has a rate of 25 power units/hour, giving 600/day.

The rate at which the installation actually extracts is a quick simple calc, as it depends on the resource percentage at that spot.

Thanks Obo!

http://www.swgcraft.com also has some calculators that do the math for you (but like Obo said, it isn't that complicated). It has settings for every harvester type there is. I think it even lets you input a sales price and it gives you cost per unit and profit per unit.
