High-Capacity Electrical Substations

In 1 collection by Zyx Abacab

13 items
Description
This is a set of four electrical substations with a higher capacity than is available in the base game.

Included are small and large medium-voltage substations, as well as small and large high-voltage substations. The small substations look best when used with underground electrical wires, and the large substations look best when used with aboveground wires.

(Many thanks to @Cola98765 for sharing this idea! See Workshop Item 3024238155 for the original proof-of-concept.)

@ s3rgioox I cannot reproduce your issue. I do not know why some users appear to have this problem, but not others.

I have built the first substations, but they are not working. Either they are not receiving electricity, or they have the same low capacity issue as the vanilla ones.

Too little electrical components are needed. Otherwise they are great.

@ Misericordiae Domini The purpose of multiple connections is to allow the total amount of incoming power handled by the substation to exceed the capacity of a single line. It was never intended to allow directly daisy-chain one substation to another.

It appears that it's not intentional that electricity can flow out of substations; given how electricity behaves in other circumstances, the ability of power to flow out of a substation is likely to be handled like a bug by the developers.

Sorry, it looks like you might have to redesign your grid...

Буду благодарен за советы, Всем Спасибо!

Проблема в чем, при последовательном соединение узлов из данного мода, на 2-м по счёту узле нет электричества.

Как это выглядет в игре :
Электростанция (источник) - подстанция на 36 MV (есть эл.) - подстанция на 36 MV (нет эл.)

Причём если использовать между элентростанцией дефолтные узлы то электричество есть опять же до 2 узла из вашего мода)

@ Harm Unfortunately, it's necessary to have inputs from multiple angles due to the ridiculously huge turning radiuses, and the in-game icons do make it a little confusing. From trains to underground power lines, everything seems to need dozens of meters of space to make a 180 degree turn!

The vanilla priority high-voltage switches sort-of give an impression of directionality, though.

Ah, that's why this one didn't work as I thought it would: I mistook it for a transformer.

Although, I have to say, the icons the devs have for medium- and high-voltage isn't directional, as most other things are in this game. Which I would have loved to see, even though it's kinda nonsencial in a way.

@ Valdemar Admittedly, mixing high and low voltages is kind of unrealistic. But having the choice and flexibility is worthwhile.

Especially given that WRSR has become the game of "angle of railway crossing is too sharp" and "some other infrastructure is in the way"...
Zyx Abacab  [author] 31 Jan, 2024 @ 2:04pm 
@ Valdemar It was requested by user Methway to have a single high-voltage line in the medium-voltage substation.

This option adds flexibility for those people who like to play using only high-voltage lines.
