What about a wonder to provide near-infinite amounts of energy taken directly from the star (of course, variable to the sun type, but essentially infinite).



I know the game does not work with the concept of "energy" per se, but this could translate to a dramatic increse of industrial output on the system itself and with proper technology, transmits that energy to system near. but all this would come with a malus to the food output, because the Dyson sphere effectively blocks significant part of the sunlight. i didn´t thought about the details i think it would work nicely.



Something like this:

There could be many types of Dyson Spheres like:

Dyson Shell: A solid globe that takes 100 of the energy of the sun and blocks all the sunlight, that system would effectively dies, but it would have a huge increasing in industrial output (this system would be completely dependent on supplies from outside)

Dyson Bubble: Thousands of huge satellites absorbing 75 percent of the sun energy and the same proportion of sunlight. by logic the life quality of the system would drop significantly.



Wlell, i didn´t tought them, they are better described here:

and here (if you want a mroe complete explanation):

But the thread is kinda dead. well, maybe i can post something there, not here, thanks.
