Circuit Isolator 2.0

Description
The Circuit Isolator is used to create a redundant power supply to your prison. Use it with Events enabled to deal with power failures.

It can also be used as an early warning system to indicate when a power station is reaching its limits. Simply put 1 capacitor less on the primary power station, and when it shuts down due to overload, you know when you need to start building additional stations. Meanwhile the power will be handled by the slightly more powerful secondary station.

This is a completely rewritten version of the old Circuit Isolator mod by aubergine18. It is way easier to set up than the old mod: no DoorTimer and wiring required, just place it between two power stations, draw an electrical cable and you're ready to go. Comes with a custom report window, so just click on the object to see how to put the cables.

The new Circuit Isolator has a quicker response time and minimizes the power outage time in case of such an event.

still works, but as far as I can tell it seems to cause visual glitches with pop up things in game.

we need a mod that can let 2 grids run at the same wires

It can be fun if the system was able to combine the power from both sides.
Might just a wish that the system can't do, but you can hope :-)

So this mod makes it to where both power generators can work even when their wires are connected which would normally screw them up resulting in a shut down, right? Or did I not understand what the mod basically does?

The station coupled to P1 should hold 1 capacitor less than P2, like the images show.

Umm it's said that p2 adds more power due to more capacitors, but for me p1 does.
