About this mod

I don't know about you, but the more awesome my drilling vehicles get, the more stone dust I have just lying around. Well now you can stash them away from your main base and put them to productive use!

I don't know about you, but the more awesome my drilling vehicles get, the more stone dust I have just lying around. Well now you can stash them away from your main base and put them to productive use! The Solar Cement Plant will harness the power of the sun to create concrete (or really anything - constructors being constructors and all) all day long.

This plant works great in concert with my Solar Furnace:
Steam
Nexus

UPDATE: The plant now has only 15 solar panels to fit with Alpha 8 requirements, I replaced them with another docking pad and a few more containers.

Features:

• Realistic cement plant features!
• Three Advanced Constructors that will cry if you use them for anything other than cement related production
• A loading dock that can handle small vessels and has a ramp for hover vessels
• An extensive solar array adjacent to the factory
• Back up generators and fuel storage to run the plant at night

Requirements:

• Stone Dust: 4948
• Iron: 1078
• Silicon: 522
• Cobalt: 221
• Neodymium: 185
• Copper: 159
• Sathium: 79
• Plastic: 1

Notes:

• The constructors draw less power than the furnace, but I still don't think it will last through the night running all three
• This has a moderate footprint for placing in the water or on rough terrain - it does have stairs and a ramp so don't worry about access if you place it up high
• When I made this (in late 2017), I looked up actual cement production diagrams, so it should be decently realistic
• This version was uploaded from the Alpha 8 build where they changed the looks of the constructors to something less cement plant looking :S
• I didn't put in any turrets as I feel like it would break immersion a bit and because there are so many towers that the turrets would have pretty miserable line of sight
