Keeping tabs on my power usage

[Einherjar]

Here's to hoping that I have overlooked something.. Is there some way to keep tabs on how much power I've used? So far, my best method is writing down what facilities I have, and the output of my generators.. feels a bit silly hehe

A power switch can hook up up to 9 wires and 1 wire to the power, if for example you are using 9 pumps for w/e and u need power for guns, you can turn that off to allocate power on the guns.

A power switch is good for ...well switching...when you have various facilities you need intermittently. I had my base running on one switch with all power going to it but had another switch which was then connected to all my turrets. Switch the 'base' switch to off and turrets to on for base defense.

That said, I think the OP is asking for an overall power total (all chained devices generating) vs all chained devices using. No, there was none I ever found. Best I could do was math in my head and mousing over the individual generator to see how much it had max for output vs how much of that value was used.

To make it clearer, I need a screen with a total on it :) Like, Power total, and power used

You can turn on build mode and highlight your generators, you can see their max output and power used. So, if you see one of your generator has Power Used: 0; Max Output: 30W, then you know you still have 30W available.

Yes, but that again requires me to run around to all my generators :) And with 9 of them, placed in different locations, that is really not a good solution

Yes it would be nice to have this. Perhaps as a menu under the territory terminal thing.

[Einherjar]

Yeah, it would be great.. Based on the answers so far though, it seems that indeed it is not a feature yet

+1 Yeah it isn't in the game yet but it should be.
