Maximum package production power wise once capped?

All reactors, no accumulators?

Let me explain: I'm in several servers where I'm power capped so if I understand the mechanic correctly, continuous power does me zero good. These bases are all 65/65/65 bases so I'm accumulating power because I'm power mad not for any other reason :p

Continuous power does not accumulate if you are capped correct? However package power does accumulate meaning I can go over my capacity and that is the only way to do that correct?

Or do I totally not understand this whole thing?

    This appears to be the case, yes. Continuous prod. is stopped once storage is full. Packages and Crates afaik exceed storage limits.

    Correct.

    Be aware your base will have less hit points, making you an easier target if there are PVP threats. L65 PP is 891k hp, vs L65 AC with 445k hp.

    Otherwise, a smart move while we wait for level 80.

    I'm an old server guy, I don't think I'll be getting a level 80 :'(

    EE is looking to patch all servers. If I was forced to guess, probably near the Holidays.

    I hope that is true, I do not believe it is though. My understand was there were some unforeseen consequences when trying to make that adjustment but I hope I'm misinformed I'd LOVE some bigger camps!

    I'm with Methuselah - I wish it were true but don't believe it is the case in the short to medium terms, or even in the distant future.. Soixie, you make the statement as if you have inside knowledge, is this the case?

    I've commented in a thread elsewhere, we are looking into raising NPC levels on older worlds retroactively and what that entails. No ETA or anything yet.

    Not officially and as I stated, "if I was forced to guess". 4-6 moths based on prior interactions with developers is more than reasonable. I also code for a living and have experience with similar platforms.
