In Precursor, a laser base is a machine that generates energy to power the mod’s machines, such as laser drills. Upgrading a laser base increases its efficiency and capabilities. Here are some common upgrades:
Energy Upgrades: These upgrades increase the energy stored and output by the laser base. They allow the laser base to power more machines or run for longer periods of time without needing to be recharged.
Speed Upgrade: The Speed Upgrade makes the laser base run faster, increasing the rate at which it generates energy. This helps reduce wait times and improves overall productivity.
Range Upgrade: The range upgrade expands the area in which the laser base can operate. This is particularly useful for machines like laser drills, as it allows them to mine resources over a larger area.
Efficiency Upgrade: The efficiency upgrade reduces the energy consumed by the laser base to generate energy. This helps reduce operating costs and makes the system more sustainable.
Enhancement Upgrades: Enhancement upgrades provide additional functionality to the laser base, such as the ability to process certain types of materials more efficiently or generate different types of energy.
Environment Upgrades: These upgrades modify the environment around your laser base to optimize its performance. For example, cooling upgrades can prevent overheating, while stability upgrades can reduce the chance of failure.
Capacity Upgrades: Capacity upgrades increase the number of resources a laser base can hold, allowing it to run for longer periods of time without needing to be refilled or emptied.
These upgrades can be crafted using a variety of materials and resources, and can be installed in the laser base, tailoring its functionality to your needs and preferences.
