I made an account just to try to contact Sirknightj personally to thank him for making this magnificent waste of time.
I can't stress enough how much time I've spent playing this little masterpiece ever since I found out about it 2 weeks ago while in school.
I've just reached maximum efficiency on my main save. Never been more proud of myself.
Thank you, Sirknightj. You're a legend.
Also, little tip:
Since the output increases by 20% from each consecutive energy panel, you can max out the output by using 1x1 tiles to surround the 4x1 ones since they do quadruple the bonus, making the output go from 80 to 240 energy per geothermal generator. :)
