THIS IS MY FIRST SE MOD, PLEASE REPORT ANY ISSUES

Recently rebalanced thanks to Stargateur!

These are blocks that store power. They have recharge and discharge rates higher than base game batteries.

(Large block) Components Needed:
Steel Plates - 60
Construction Components - 20
Computer - 15
Power Cell - 40
Superconductor - 10
Construction Components - 10
Steel Plates - 20

(Large block) Stats:
Max output - 120MW
Max input - 120MW
Max stored power - 2MWh

(Small block) Components Needed:
Steel Plates - 5
Construction Components - 2
Computer - 4
Power Cell - 10
Superconductor - 2
Construction Components - 2
Steel Plates - 5

(Small block) Stats:

Think they are very balanced at this point, open to any suggestions.

Going to add LODs soon, and make the model look better.

@Girthy McFatkid long time since I did these wow, I honestly made these for some sort of ship racing thing with friends where quick charging was needed and did not expect people to catch on.

But... they kinda blew up and ended up like third on the main page, not intended but welcome.
Might rework these, do some actually programming as that's what I do for a job now daily lmao.

Zakus, these are nice looking capacitors. Thank you.

So... Batteries! Awesome! Got any ideas on expanding the mod? Make it unique. Who's mod stores power and have higher recharge and discharge rates?
A lot...
But who's mod does that PLUS fires frozen hotdogs at their enemies in such a way that the weenies get perfectly cooked as they rearrange the molecules at the speed of light in 'That Poor Puddle of a Man's face?
Yerz

Lmao, I really wish I had stuck with modding when I was younger. Enough that I could actually create more than "Fancy cfg.txt" files xD

No time in old age.
No make same mistake.

@Rastlore, sounds like a compatibility issue with another mod. A server a friend setup for our group to play on had a similar issue. The large vanilla atmosphere thrusters would vanish if certain block was to close to them, in this instance the (AR) Cooling System mod caused the issue. However restarting, or rolling back, the server did not fix the problem and we had to spawn in a backup bp of it

To clarify, the blocks show up in the terminal menu, they are functioning as intended, and as a player you cannot pass through them. They are just not visible after loading a save file on occasion but a save/exit back to the title screen and reloading into the save fixes the issue. Love these too much to remove them for something so trivial as the ends justify the means. Just putting this out there in case it is something that warrants a further look into.

having an issue where these capacitors will, on occasion, not spawn. Usually reloading the game will fix it but it is the only mod I use that will randomly, upon game load, decide it didn't want to join the party leaving gaping holes in my builds, lol. The benefit of these blocks far outweighs the inconvenience of having to reload but thought I should bring attention to it in case it's a prelude to something more serious.

@Bswell less power than batteries higher recharge and dicharge

Isn't this a high discharge rate battery? 🤔
