Take 44 Iron Ingots
and divide it into 2 stacks of 22 and place it in the Compressor to be compressed into
22 Compressed Iron.
Continue working while it's compressing.
Next use another 21 Aluminum Ingots and 42 Wool to make 42 more
Aluminum Wire
if you haven't done so already.
Return to the Circuit Fabricator page for recipe reference.
Use 4 Diamond, 8 Silicon, 4 Redstone, 2 Redstone Repeaters, and 2 Lapis Lazuli to make
2 Advanced Wafers and
18 Solar Wafers.
Follow the recipes in Solar Panels page. Convert our
18 Solar Wafers into Full Solar Panels using 12 Aluminum Wire and
18 Glass.
Now we need to wait until our Iron is done being compressed. Insert the 22 Compressed Iron into the Compressor again,
with 2 stacks of 22 Coal. This will be compressed into 22 Compressed Steel.
Combine 4 pieces of Aluminum Wire with 4 pieces of Wool and 4 more Aluminum Ingots to make 4
Heavy Aluminum Wire.
Heavy Aluminum Wire is generally better than the standard Aluminum Wire but we don't really need to upgrade our wire for a long while.
We just need some right now for the Solar Panel recipe.
Return to the Solar Panels page and finish making 2 Advanced Solar Panels.
Solar Panels convert light energy from the sun into electrical energy. Solar Panels need a direct line-of-sight to the sun,
so they are generally placed at the top-most position of your base, as high as trees.
Use the Compressor to compress 30 Tin Ingots into 15 Compressed Tin.
Make 3 Batteries,
and then make an Energy Storage Module.
Connect the Energy Storage Module to your wire network. One side is the Input while the other is the Output.
This will store excess energy generated from your Solar Panels when they're not powering anything, and discharge
the stored energy when your Solar Panels are not generating energy, such as during the night or during rain.
