Pressure & Power System
By Leisurely Luke
Pressure & Power are new systems introduced in Update 1.5.1. Although the power generators have been used before to power machines, from now on Players are required to manage both water and electrical power usage. If the demand for power or water in the network is greater than supply, the machines will stop working. Prospecting gold miners will be required to manage water pressure and electrical power in the networks.

PRESSURE SYSTEM

The River is the infinite source of water.

River:
  • Suitable to supply the Small Water Pump
  • Sufficient to supply T2
  • Insufficient to supply T3+

Water Tanks are the finite source of water.

Mobile Water Tank (low-cost):
  • Suitable to supply Hog Pan, Mobile Washplant, and T3.
  • Is equipped with the built-in Pump (two medium outputs)

Water Tower (high-priced):
  • Suitable to supply all machines
  • Requires to connect the Big Water Pump to distribute water
  • Has three big outputs

Each water-supplied machine requires a certain amount of water supplied (measured in m3/h).
Each water-supplied machine must be located at most X meters from the Pump to work. The maximum distance depends on the type of the Pump.

When the amount of water supplied to the machine is not sufficient, the machine will stop working.

There can only be one Pump in the water supply network.

Filling the Water Tanks:
  • Mobile Water Tank - supplied from the River (slowly) or from the Water Tower.
  • Water Tower - filled by ordering the refill (paid).

Work in progress:
  • Water freezes in winter.
  • Water Tanks dry out in summer.
  • Water Tower requires to be rebuilt.

The Pressure system is disabled in the Tutorial.
POWER SYSTEM

Generators are the finite source of electricity.

Mobile Generator:
  • Suitable to power Small Electric Pump, Big Electric Pump, Wave Table, Worklight, or Conveyor Belt Hopper
  • Sufficient to power T2
  • Insufficient to power T3+ by itself (two Mobile Generators are required)
  • Insufficient to power T4+

Big Generator:
  • Suitable to power all machines
  • Sufficient to power All Tiers

Each generator requires a certain amount of fuel supplied (measured in m3/h) to generate electrical power. When there's not enough fuel supplied, the generator will stop working.

When the electricity powering the machine is not sufficient, the machine will stop working.

Fuel usage decreases if the generator is not used at 100%.

добавили бы систему слива топлива
зачем нужен большой разъем in в водонапорной башне, если его нельзя использовать?
