Workbench Battery & Power Generator
I was thinking a tier 3 upgrade for the workbench that has a battery built into it so it could allow someone to charge it and place it down in other areas when a power source isn't available OR freeing up power usage so someone doesn't have to dedicate a battery to the bench.

The Power Generator being exactly as it sounds, a generator built to make energy that doesn't require a Pest and can be used to power structures that work at a HIGHER performance. For Example Tesla Coils doing more damage, Charging stations recharging items at a faster rate, cooking stoves or Ovens having increased rates as well.
However the obvious downside of this is that if say OVERCHARGED could proceed to damage structures or begin to leak radiation due to the materials fed into it to fuel it.

The upgrade and/or building materials materials that I figured would be a good idea are as follows with of course new items from future areas that can be used far more fittingly than currently thought of items.

Workbench Auxiliary Battery
  • 2 or 3 Carbon Batteries
  • 2 Capacitors (per battery meaning it could be 4)
Opptional/Additional requirements
  • Tarasque Ichor
  • Power Cells
  • Higher Tier crafting materials

Power Generator
  • Pest Wheel Generator
  • Chopinator
  • # Capacitors
  • Car Battery Charger
  • # Power Cell

Part of the idea I had was that depending on the fuel it gave a higher output at a cost of efficiency or maybe can be 'upgraded' to have lesser cons and more pros but requiring better fuel sources. Like for example slots in it where for each powercell you slot in you increase its output at a risk of higher radiation generation or even radioactive waste.

Possible Items used as fuel from lowest to highest quality
  • Antiverse Wheat (Low Rads/ Low Power/ Low Duration)
  • Antiverse Juice (Minimum Rads / Low Power/ Moderate Duration)
  • Leyak Essence (Moderate Rads / High Power/ Short Duration)
  • Tarasque Ichor (High Rads / Extreme Power / High Duration)

I hope to see if this does give you any good ideas OR maybe its something you've already got in mind and helped think up a few more tidbits to try out!

Love this game and hope it keeps going smoothly.
