Description


Why not both?

This mod is based on two other mods: Turn It On and Off and RePower

Ive always used RePower since it made it possible to have more realistic power-consumption.
The electric stove for example uses 350W but a real such stove uses between 2000-5000W.
This is of course because the stove in the game does not turn off when unused.
The trouble with the RePower-mod is that it requires a patch for each building.

The Turn It On and Off-mod is a more general solution to the problem as it works on almost everything.
This trouble is that it keeps the vanilla power-requirement, making the game very easy.

This mod combines the two and also introduces mod-options.
This makes it possible to define a multiplier for the vanilla power-draw for a more realistic level.
Changes are applied without need for restart.
It also supports the patches from RePower for special cases or personal settings.

Its safe to add and remove from saves, and should not affect performance any more than either of the previous mods.

- Added support for turrets, turrets that use the Building_Turret class will now draw high-power when having an active target.
- Added support for all autodoors that use the vanilla door-class
- Added support for Doors Expanded
- Added support for Project RimFactory Revived, both the workbenches and the automatic assemblers.
- Added setting for blocking work if power is low, all workbenches that inherits the vanilla class should now block usage if there is not enough power stored or being generated.
- French translation added, thanks qux!
- Russian translation added, thanks Reiquard!

If you want, you can use this along with my patch-pack for RePower:

@raz334 That is why this mod lets you change the multiplier if you feel its too hard to use the default values.
Hopefully you can find a value more in line with your interpretation of the problem.

@Mlie The reason for the low power draw on the items is because of the exceptionally bare-bones level of power production on the generators and other power producing sources in the game. Likely to simply avoid forcing large calculations on the already calculation heavy game engine.

The reason for leaving items running could be similar or it could be a nerf to kind of offset the way it effects difficulty.

IE: Look up actual power production numbers for power plants, they are off the charts compared to Rimworld's scale, especially if you get into things like nuclear.

1,000W is a portable gas generator you can buy and plug into your home, and your lucky it if keeps your fridge running, or your microwave but not both. Yet that is the amount of alot of the low tier gens in vanilla rimworld and they are alot bigger. Taking 4 squares where a comparative size would be 1 square.

@seed of nihility I dont see the point of that. Why would they draw that little while in use?

可以做对questionble ethics enhanced(countinued)的适配么？目前organ vat 和clone vet在培养时也耗电10。
Can u make a adapt to "questionble ethics enhanced(countinued)" ? its organ vat and clone vet spent 10w while cloning.

I put a power mod on to observe what draws power - and it seems a bunch of furniture that this mod is changing to use lower power actually doesn't. For example, television - says 10w idle, 500w full.. but its actual draw is 200w constant. Ideas why, or what I can do to try to fix that?

@Mlie 好吧 谢谢
Okay, thank you

@XKDMW That is the intended values

熔炼器闲置时耗电400w 使用时耗电4500w 麻烦修复
The smelter consumes 400w when idle and 4500w when in use. Please repair it

@John Marble Please see the Reporting Issues section described above

It seems reload the save will make the mod not working as intended, all the tables, devices, machine will use full power even though it shows that it's turn on/off. There is no error log so I think is just a small bug, restart the game (not reload the save) will make them working again.
