This is a type of energy production facility that concentrates a huge area of sunlight into a central tower. The energy it gathers throughout the day is stored as heat in a molten mixture of salts to keep producing electricity even when the sun is out!

  Oh. Now I get it, the second layer of GLAS makes the light get blocked for me

  It isn't inconsistent, it's changed in development so the next version of the game will require that second layer of GLAS to work (LBPHacker is a game developer). It would be a shame if an awesome save like this needs manual intervention to function in the future. :)

  Well, as the GLAS interaction with photons is so inconsistent between game versions, I added a control to toggle the upper and lower layers of GLAS.

  Fix attempt 1 works!

  @Eauix The build doesn't produce any photons at all in newer versions of the game because the single top layer of GLAS that's supposed to color the PHOT absorbs them instead (as LBPHacker explained). If you add another layer of GLAS (just to the top, not to the mirrors) the build works perfectly with all versions of the game.

  Btw the turbine consumes 15c/frame of heat current so doesn't produce infinite energy. +1

  This is so satisfying seeing all the mirrors reflecting perfectly. +1

  If you look at the pro going down and focus on one, it looks like a straight line, but they are separated

  @username90000 I did, I wanted to verify that a single layer of FILT still works like it used to so I changed the layer of GLAS that colors the PHOT into FILT with the replace tool, okay? :)
