DYSON SPHERE PROGRAM runs out of Stone to make glass on a rocky Earth-like world THIS ENTIRE PLANET IS MADE OF STONE. Further, I have Crystalline Silicon. Which is natural glass. WHAT THE FUCK.
Or let me dig HOLES at least? MOHO Boreholes would solve the fuck out of needing a Lava-World to do Geothermal Power, or mining stone, or Kimberlite ore for Diamonds. Not to mention Coal-Mining and hypercompression into Energetic Graphite, or more diamonds. FML
For context: Each light that leaves that planet is a rocket filled with end-game building materials such as frames for the dyson sphere. Each mass-driver is firing solar sails into the lagrange point of the system primary in this case a black hole to await fitting into the dyson sphere as it is being built.
Also doing this ingame in a black hole system is stupidly extra as you don't get much energy return from the sphere around a black hole the game cant simulate penrose spheres YET and you'd do better doing this to a high luminosity star such as a Type-O or a Blue Giant star to get all that energy
His end stats for this thing as it was being built is 4k rockets per minute, and 14k solar sails per minute. Each of which needs to be built. If you're sharp-eyed at 6:28 you get to see the sparky lights in the far distance as his logistics ships uses the resources of several star systems for the materials cost of what he's building here
