Adds a component which will add capability to exchange electricity on a grid, no need to reparent other actors to include this functionality, just add a single component to your actors.
The component uses power levels, meaning that a single generator can only handle so-many devices attached, and each one of these consumers can use up a different amount of power.
Over long distance, the system can be configured to have power losses to resistance. This can be fully configured or disabled.
There are three types of connections, being:
- Sources (like generators or battery outputs)
- Relays (like power poles)
- Consumers (like machines or lights)
Power levels are automatically calculated and handled. These can be accessed through the use of a single variable for any further functionality.
The network is created using cables, which handle the grid efficiently and with very little performance impact.
This product will be updated, and suggestions are very well appreciated!
