Backup Generator - radx5Blue/ImmersiveSolarArrays GitHub Wiki

The Battery Bank can be set up with a backup generator to power your devices when the batteries are not charged.

Valid Area for backup:

Area scales with player's Electricity skill, 1 square per skill level away from Bank. After level 6 it can have one level difference as well. e.g. a player with level 6 Electricity skill level can connect backup generator that is on floor above in a radius of ~6 squares. *squares can be measured by using the walk to cursor

Connecting Backup:

To connect a backup generator, place it near the Battery Bank and perform the generator's connect action. Backup generators are also connected automatically when you place the Battery Bank.

The backup generator can be any type of regular generator, except Battery Bank.

Debugging the setup:

  • open the UI window
  • enable the show backup info in debug tab
  • switch to details tab
  • look at the debug information

Details of problem:

  1. valid area: player's skill is too low to connect the generator on that square.
  2. square not set up as backup: means the data hasn't been set to the Battery Bank and it won't check this square.
