the last should be easy to solve, prevent to hapens until 7 days, also should change vanilla settings to prevent less than 7 days. i will check the scheduling, i didnt notice cose im not sit watching tv normally, for me mybe its better
Joy Tomaro  [author] Jan 27, 2024 @ 4:16pm 
it doesnt work in multiplayer and it messes with tv and radio scheduling in single player
aquelarrefox Jan 27, 2024 @ 7:49am 
which bug?
Joy Tomaro  [author] Jan 25, 2024 @ 10:34pm 
the mod works, but it still has the bugs many people have reported. i have not touched the mod in a long time but i would like to try to improve it one day (not in the near future)

it does not work in multiplayer according to many users, and it seems to mess with tv and radio scheduling.

thank you to everyone who uses and enjoys this mod! if someone can make something that works without the mentioned bugs im sure the community will appreciate it

Also just played recently and the mod still seems to be working. Probably just the author has decided not to maintain it anymore.
SkullEmoji Jan 13, 2024 @ 3:45pm 
I had enjoyed several playthroughs using your mod. It mixes up the early game and gives a sense of realism instead of power just being on all the time until the shutoff.

Thank you

what i see from the code should be posible to cut the water during the blackout too

explodingcows546 Nov 29, 2023 @ 11:46am

Orbit Nov 25, 2023 @ 11:37am

Kenpa Nov 11, 2023 @ 2:37am 
Thank you for the reply and the effort put into this.

blackouts mod turns off the global power grid so off grid power still works. havent tested it with that mod but i assume it wouldnt affect solar power
Kenpa Oct 28, 2023 @ 6:53pm 
Will the blackouts kill all the ice cream and corn I'm hoarding... even with say battery power from the solar mod? This looks great btw, so maybe fuck my frozen treats if that's the case.

@Joy thanks for this! Just popping a comment on here to say that I am having zero problems with this in single player, and I LOVE it.
Joy Tomaro  [author] Oct 10, 2023 @ 4:11pm 
Hi everyone! Thanks for using my mod(s)!

My mods have not been updated in several months and I currently have no plans to update any of them. Feel free to study this mod or use the same concepts to make something more functional.
maxpirk Oct 9, 2023 @ 2:07pm 
This mod wont even show up in the mod list.
maxpirk Oct 9, 2023 @ 1:41pm 
This does not work in single player. This mod is bullshit.
Trombonaught Sep 24, 2023 @ 10:12pm 
@Leon, no, it doesn't work in MP lol. I just noticed this myself when I (the host) was the only one suffering in blackouts haha
leon Sep 17, 2023 @ 8:01am 
someone makes this mp compatible
leon Sep 17, 2023 @ 7:16am 
i use it on mp and only hear the reactor sound but nothing happens
leon Sep 17, 2023 @ 7:16am 
so you cant use it on mp?
Shoeshin Sep 15, 2023 @ 4:51am 
Can you configure to when you want it to activate and for how long?
Desert Fox Sep 12, 2023 @ 5:14am 
This mod is awesome experienced my first black out the other day playing!!!!
Cмoльный™ Aug 10, 2023 @ 4:12pm 
Where i can configure this? i dont see any options in sandbox
XiaZia Aug 9, 2023 @ 3:49pm 
On our dedicated server- it keeps playing the noise too turn the power back on every now and then, but it doesn't turn it on.. : ( anyways, love the mod!
800813 Aug 5, 2023 @ 8:59am 
I really hope you'll get to sync on multiplayer one day...
This mod is pretty fun, combined with other mods makes it alot better

When can I MP:steamhappy:This MOD is good
Nihi ^.^ Jul 18, 2023 @ 7:25am 
When the power permanently shuts down. The mod tries to turn on power again and making the "return power sound" play on repeat in random
im in a coma Jul 15, 2023 @ 7:52pm 
it works in multiplayer it just isnt synced and tvs dont turn on
Joy Tomaro  [author] Jul 14, 2023 @ 9:34pm 
thanks Xeto, i havent tested it but it was just based on some reports i saw. glad it works for some tho
Xeto 'Vuzamai Jul 14, 2023 @ 8:30pm 
The description says Single-Player Only, but the only issue I've seen on multiplayer is TV's can't turn back on once they've been turned off.
Pedo Diddy Jul 14, 2023 @ 4:41pm 
Bro all tv´s in the map are bug i can´t turn on none
Orbit Jul 9, 2023 @ 1:29pm

Really adds immersion to the world. Thanks :steamthumbsup:

@John Wayne Guan
thanks for the report! can you put any other related details in the bug discussion thread and let me know if restarting fixed it
John Wayne Guan Jul 4, 2023 @ 2:23am 
when the power permanently shutsdown, the power turning on sound keeps repeating and it doesnt stop
♋ Ziru J. Soulslayer Jul 3, 2023 @ 12:45pm 
multiplayer version?
Corvus Jul 1, 2023 @ 10:38am 
Got it, thanks!
Joy Tomaro  [author] Jun 30, 2023 @ 10:13pm 
@Corvus im not currently updating any mods, but you can set the power shutoff date to 365, which i believe is the max with my mod, or try and see if this mod is compatible to changing the shutoff date https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2934556282

alternatively, you can use debug mode to set the power shutoff date to an unreachable number of days
Corvus Jun 30, 2023 @ 8:28pm 
Hey, could you make it so that we're able to have power never fully go out (I.e. the only form of power shutoff is the temporary blackouts)?

@Diakon it is single-player only because i have had reports that it doesnt work on multiplayer except for the host. i think it is due to how the mod works, but im sure there is a way to make it work in multiplayer. i just have no way of testing it and i havent been playing the game for a long time.

@AmaDeusen this mod affects the entire map as it changes the power shutoff date and changes it back
AmaDeus Jun 26, 2023 @ 9:00am 
Hello Tomaro. As I do not understand modding properly I wanted to ask you, if this mod affects map based on cells (so only some maps) or is it some general override and the WHOLE MAP even if you have mods etc. will go off
