SS Lightning Rod

Description
SS Lightning Rod - V.1.1.0
(Zeon not included.)
The Spdskatr Department for Countering Zeon is back with another of their latest gadgets. This lightning rod will teach any Zeus impersonator that science will always conquer all, including their so-called "godly" lightning powers.



Adds a lightning rod that can attract lightning strikes to its pole using an ion beam emitter, and harvests part of its power. Has 3 modes. Unlocked thru machining research and is located in the "misc" tab

Of course, every design has its imitations. The lightning rod can only recover so fast, and too much lightning hitting the one rod will overwhelm it.

=================================================================

Adds a lightning rod that can direct lightning bolts away from the colony's precious buildings.

Special thanks to Sera for the amazing lightning rod texture!

Since Pythons version did not stop the fires I made another update of this:

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2131738048 reupload of python users 1.1 port

Python User version doesn't appear to exist anymore. Does anyone have an updated release?

That new upload seems to have added a new... well I guess let's call it a "feature" that causes flammable things to ignite near the rod. Which is a problem, since conduits are generally flammable.

Thanks Benediction. I would otherwise have NEVER noticed that.

I haven't tested it yet, but in English what Python User is saying is that he has updated it. New mod name is "Lightning Rod 避雷针". Assuming this works, thanks Python User!

@阿琪仔 我更新啦～搜一下避雷针就行了

somebody can update it for v1.1 ?
Malkav Mar 11, 2020 @ 3:22pm 
Since the original author is no longer updating it, I tried updating this mod to 1.1. I just don't know enough. Maybe somebody else can get it to work. It's mostly done, but it throws an error on load. You can build/install the Lightning Rod, but it doesn't attract lightning or prevent fires as it is supposed to. My fork of the code is here: https://github.com/malkav73/SSLightningRod
