Huge Coal Plant

Description
The ultimate coal power plant it employs 428 workers and can produce 30000MWh per day on a 500MW circuit breaker. Based on the Battersea Powerstation which operated in the UK between 1933 to 1983. The powerstation was shutdown due to high maintenance costs and being obsoleted by newer natural gas power stations. To simulate high maintenance costs this plant will consume a small amount of steel in addition to coal.

Added Battersea Steam Vent.
- Located under heating plant it can be used to heat your city by siphoning off steam from the plant's boilers.
- Has underground pipes and no collision so can be placed anywhere nearby
- Requires a couple workers to operate the valve.

Added Visitors Center offering tours the historical building. Located under attraction.

Added more conveyor inputs.

Yeah, found it and tweaked some of the buildings settings myself - again, great - thanks : )

The excess power can be used for heating via the steam vent building.

Great mod, the only issue is that it produces 3x the amount of power you can actually pull from it through wires. The wired connections only allow for a total draw of 11,787MW.

7 x 2.35MWh + 10 x 18MWh = 196.45MWh or 11,787MW per day

Though it is great in the middle of an industrial park where the industrial buildings can draw power directly from the power station and the wired power can be exported to other districts.

Nice to see Battersea Power station in game.
I used to live by River Thames opposite.
So now I have it in game as well as on album cover.

no way that's the pink floyd album building in real life

just did some rough calculation, if i where to hook up the hv powerlines of 18mw all 10 of them than the remaining power into your heatvents, you would almost need 32 heatvents for the remaining power to be used..... i would say maybe add some more hv power line spots. power wise you can power 27,7 high voltage power lines of 18mw so having only 10 connections seems a bit low

This plant needs more high voltage connections!

Hey man. Great mod! Beautiful building! Smoke seems a little light, but i have not had it running under full load yet, so maybe it gets thicker then. lol

But i do have a minor suggestion, if possible, would you think about adding something to the heating building icon to show its the heater? For when it pops up as stop running for instance. Its just the power plant icon, so possible confusion as to what has stopped operating. Maybe add the little heating wavy lines to it or something. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks for making this!

Look at the road cargo station for STATION_NON_BLOCKING you will also need to describe a route in and out.
