###Column's material power
Each properly made column placed on the right spot will give beacon it's material power.
Material power is calculated with formula: columnMaterialPower = baseMaterialPower * crystalStrengthMultiplier.
baseMaterialPower and crystalStrengthMultiplier can be set in config file.
First 3 columns of each type will work at first3 power multiplier.
Next 3, (4, 5, 6) will work at second3 multiplier, and so on... up to 12 columns.
Those values can be set in config as well.
####Basic config values:
Power of one column will be 1 with matte crystal, 1.75 with cleat and 2.5 with exquisite one.
Max amount of power for one material (12 exquisite crystals and 12 columns of same material) is equal:
maxPower = 3 * 2.5 + 3 * 2.5 * 0.75 + 3 * 2.5 * 0.5 + 3 * 2.5 * 0.25, which is equal to 18.75
But with different materials (3x each one): eachMaterialPower = 3 * 2.5 = 7.5
Basically the more columns of the same material you have, the less power they have.
