Turn It On and Off

Description
Makes electrical machines use low power (1 watt or user defined) when not in use. Works with many electrical machines from other mods.

To make things not so easy automatically turned off machines use 2 times the power by default. You can change these settings to your preference.

However, please note that due to the way Rimworld works, if your base keeps wavering between a small amount of power and no power, pawns may go back and forth to a station, trying to use it when the power comes back on, then leaving when the power flickers back off.

Fully save compatible. Can be added or removed at any time. Please report any errors.

Works with

Crafting benches
Drills
Research/analyzer
GroundScanner
LongRangeScanner
VitalsMonitors
TVs
LightBalls
LoudSpeakers

These work continuously so they are not modified
lamps
landing beacons
nutrient paste
hydroponics
moisture pumps
turrets
orbital/comms
autobongs

sleep accelerator, biosculptor has its own on/off mechanic so they are ignored as well

HugsLib just updated! Of course, if you're almost done removing the dependency that's fine too.

my early-game pawns are leaving the stove on at 350W while they're sleeping... never realized how much I relied on this mod.
god thanks you for your w work! waiting for update!😋

It won't work with the fork without me updating this mod. I checked out the fork and it looks like some people have gamebreaking issues with that

hop, there's a fork of huglib on the 2nd page of the comments

Does this mean it would work as it is once HugsLib works? Asking because there is a working HugsLib fork and I wonder if that makes this mod work already.

Hugslib still not updated and this mod depends on that. I will have to remove the dependency. Might take a few days
