Would love to see an update for 1.6. If you have time and did not stop modding RimWorld mod author =) In both cases have a great day !

This mod is an absolute must-have for mechanitor playthroughs. Will it be updated for 1.6 by any chance?

@Richex I probably commented before steam was done verifying the new mod version. Sorry for the confusion.

New Version 1.0.2
- Fixed info panel displaying incorrect power consumption

@Spesh Thanks for the report. Apparently one of the recent minor Rimworld updates broke the power consumption displayed. It still correctly draws 40 W but the info panel displays 200 W (you can check if you build a single recharger and a power generator. The power available displayed on the generator is it's own power minus 40 W for the charger).

I'll see if I can get the display fixed. The mod is still working in the meanwhile - your chargers will draw reduced power when on standby.

I removed all mods, just had this one enabled, made a new colony and used dev mode to make a small recharger. it still cost 200w to run with nothing using it
