Hey Anuke!
Love the game.
I do have a burning question.
Airblast has no percieved benefit versus the laserdril.
is intended or an oversight?
they both have the same output when occupying a single mineable square. (so, afaik they have the same output per square occupied)
the lazer drill uses less energy per mineable square (66e/9sq=) 7.33e/sq
where the airblast drill consumes (180e/16sq=) 11.25e/sq
the only benefit the airblast drill seems to have is 26% reduced water consumption
(6w/16sq=)0.375 for the airblast per square
(4.6w/9sq=)0.511 for the lazer drill.
Even buildtime isnt a factor here.
The airblast drill takes 0.22 seconds per square to build
And the lazerdrill a mere 0.16 seconds per square.
Or am i having the oversight here?
the airblast drill does not live up to it's description of being an "ultimate drill" if a lower tier (and more easily placed) drill has more benefits.
Kind regards, whatever my username is here.
