Score Details

All Scores - All scores are capped at 10 per category.​

Power Source Score - This is the quality of the power in terms of pollution. If the property has only green energy and or power receivers for its power then this score is an automatic 10. If there is any non-renewable energy on the property it must be scored normally.​

- Every 10% of renewable energy and glowstone generator energy is worth 1 point.​

- Every 14% of nuclear energy produced via heavy steam generator or steam engines is worth 1 point.​

- Every 14% of hydrogen power produced is 1 point.​

- Every 25% of boiler energy produced via heavy steam generator or steam engines is worth 1 point, so long as the boilers are setup with a battery monitor.​

- All other power sources are not worth any points.​

Power Efficiency Score - This is how well the power is used at the property itself.​

- Are battery monitors or power breakers being used on every dirty power source so that they only turn on when the batteries run low? If no dirty power sources this is treated as true. This is worth 1 point if true.​

- Are Power Breakers in place to turn on and off most power consuming devices? This is worth 0-3 points depending on how many of the power consuming devices are on power breakers. If there is no power consuming devices then this receives 3 points automatically.​

- Is the property using to many batteries? A property may have 10+(Renewable Energy Potential/10) batteries. This is worth 2 points. If the property is over the amount then it receives no points. If the property has no batteries then it receives 2 points.​

Pollution Score - This is how much pollution the property is producing relative to the complexity of its grid.​

- This score is determined by the following formula. Score = (GridScore × 400) ÷ PollutionPerMinute. This is the total GridScore of the property and total PollutionPerMinute of the property. PollutionPerMinute can be found in a production monitor, and GridScore can be found in power pylons.​

- The score is increased by standing at the center of the property and using /mt map with the following formula. Score = Dissipation / 3​
