| ==Summary==
| |
| Generates [[hydrogen]] and [[deuterium]] when placed on the equator of a gas giant, or hydrogen and [[Fire Ice]] on the equator of an ice giant.
| |
|
| |
|
| The resource collection rate depends on the yield of the giant and the gathering speed of the [[Orbital Collector]]. The default gathering speed is 8. The gathering speed can be increased with the [[Veins_Utilization_(Upgrade)| Veins Utilization]] upgrade. The collection rate is calulated as yield * gathering speed.

| However, some of the resources collected will be used to power the [[Orbital Collector]].

| Both resources will be used to fuel the [[Orbital Collector]], regardless of how much is stored of each resource.

| The resources are used proportionally to how much is collected per second, and how much energy is generated by burning the resource.

| For example: A giant has a yield of 0.5 fireice/s and 0.25 hydrogen/s. The actual resource yield can be calculated like this:

| With the default gathering speed, most of the resources are lost to power the [[Orbital Collector]]. Researching higher levels of the [[Veins_Utilization_(Upgrade)| Veins Utilization]] is important to get good yields, as this increases the gathering speed of the [[Orbital Collector]] while keeping the power consumption the same.

| |
| It is possible to place more than one collector on a gas giant, although there is a minimum distance between collectors required, so there is a maximum number of collectors per gas giant.
