Electric fencing

[Imposter]

Any one managed to get this working, Plugging in barbed wire to a car or truck battery, or is it work in progress?

Seems im also able to plug the barbed wire into a wooden fence, bug i guess

It’s not a bug, it has not been implemented yet. Also, barbed wire can be mounted on fences, top or bottom.

yea i realise you can mount the barbed wire on fences... but ive never seen the "plug in" option on the fence. good things to come

Cool man...

I think it would make more sense to use a generator to power the electric fence tbh... A 12/24 volt car/truck battery will do literally nothing unless you lick it while standing completely naked in the pouring rain.. and even then it would be moderately annoying at best.

but, then again they can power a construction light that most certainly takes 240v so I guess they're just magic batteries. Huh, maybe thats why the cars fly...

I guess the Devs are not qualified electrical engineers; a domestic electric fence energizer can generate up to 10KV from a 12V battery, but I recon to implement that into the game would take many months. Let's rather have them work on actual gaming stuff, OK?

Also; Modern LED technology is producing Lumens with 12VDC, which is greatly in excess of what was possible on 240V Incandescent or Halogen powered lamps 10 years ago. Oh, and cars do not fly unless your internet connection sucks eggs. Stick to your music kid.

Aight, since you appear to radiate insecurity and are less mature than the majority of the people at my college despite being an "old gamer", I'm not going to retaliate with the same condescending energy that you initiated your comment with. Well, not past that first sentence anyway. That was a jab... Speaking of which, why do you feel so attacked by me? What is so intimidating?

I never stated that it wasn't possible to energize a fence with a battery. But in game it would be hooked up directly, no DC-DC boost converter, no AC conversion then fed to a transformer, nothing to boost it up to 10kV as you said. Just a plain connection. At least the generator spits out 240 which is far much more likely to hurt you. That's why I said it would make more sense for that.

Im not sure what exact year the game is set in, but its certainly not modern judging by the cars. I highly doubt those construction lights from that time period are going to be running LED's inside those lights. In fact, you can look at the texture inside of the light fixture and see that it is incandescent. More specifically, something similar to a R7S halogen bulb by the looks of it. Again, I never said that LED's and incandescent bulbs can't be run off 12v DC. Im not entirely sure why you want to tutor me on the Lumen per watt of LEDs vs incandescent either. In game we can see that the construction lights run off the generator at what I assume is 240v since the game is set in Russia. Its safe to say that no 240v filament would glow any useful amount from 12v.


And the flying cars statement was a joke. Im not trying to attack the devs. Not in this thread, anyway...


Now that we have derailed this thread, lets shut up.

.... is it sad that I'm learning more electrical on this sub than I am in my electrical classes? Haha
