  1. Another wonderful video in the books! Thanks to the both of you for making it fun and entertaining.

    Having problems finding more information on the difference between a Dyson Swarm and Dyson Sphere. I started a swarm to start getting white cube production going. Can we also get the core ingredients from the sphere also to make white as you allude to at the end of this video? Should I building both a swarm and a sphere?

  2. On the stats screen at 3:10:00 the reason the number was low and kept increasing had nothing to do with machine buffer, it was showing you the average over the last 10 minutes. If you change the time at the top to 1 minute you'll get a far more instant read on your current production/consumption.

  3. Node numbers are received/in transit/required it's 30 per node, and 10 per frame segment. the nodes share frame, they only supply halfway to the next node. So each of your nodes that have 3 arms have 25 frame sections to build. That's why on the nodes that have 4 arms, its 390. I'd also recommend not filling out you're entire Sphere at once. Building small sections of it, such as one square at a time will allow your rockets to prioritize that section and you can begin filling it with sails sooner. As it is, it may take some time before you will be able to fill a frame, regardless of rocket production

  4. The layout for building the actual sphere is a bit annoying. You can't actually ever build a Dyson Sphere that way. There's really only one way to accomplish it. You have to make a collection of orbital rings in a sort of woven pattern…then lay the shell itself along the interior of that spherical "basket".
    .
    Orbital rings use a trick of a relatively motionless "pipe" with a fluid inside that moves at orbital velocity. The equilibrium of the force of the fluid prevents the ring from collapsing, and the pipe prevents the fluid obviously from dispersing.
    .
    If the "weave" is tight enough, you could put paper on the inside and it wouldn't fall apart. It would burn up, obviously, but it wouldn't fail, strength-wise. But while orbital rings can abuse a lot of the rules of orbital mechanics, there's still only so much you can do. You'd need three different axes of rings arranged the way longitudinal lines are, and then have them all weaving in and out of one another. And the number of rings you need is determined by the strength and mass of the shell you want to put on the inside.
    .
    You could also, hypothetically, put a shell around the outside, and make its total diameter the same as that of the distance to experience 1g from the host star. Then just make an artificial terrestrial surface on the shell exterior, and live on it like a planet.

  5. Loving the content as usual :). I just want to suggest something, save yourself some angst. Stop using level 1 sorters. It is more than trivial to just use mark 2 sorters. Listening to you ponder over whether to use level 1 vs level 2 sorters is… well, its like people who buy razor blades at the store instead of subscribing to them online. Also, your assemblers, you should update these all to level three, it will increase your production by 50% and you should already be making the components required for mark 3 assemblers on masse because the materials used for mark 3 assemblers are the same materials used for purple cubes.
