[Og] Automatic Power Switch

Ticks per second. Rimworld by default runs at 60 ticks per second. A "tick" is a step in the simulation, where processing of things going on occurs. Not everything is processed every tick, but the TPS of the game directly defines the actual rate that time is running in the game (in fact, in fact, increasing the speed scale just increases the target TPS).

If processing is taking longer per tick than 1/60th of a second, your effective TPS drops as a result, and the effective speed of the simulation drops at the same rate (this applies even more so on higher speed settings). Turrets consume a lot of TPS because they scan for targets regularly, which is an expensive operation, since it needs to check the status and distance RE: the turret of any pawns on the map, and it needs to do that for every turret on the map.

what the hell is a tps

This is how I, a turret junkie who puts at least one turret in literally every room, learn that powered turrets are bad for tps.
Thankyou.

o my god this is what i been looking for years

Didn't know turrets affected TPS when powered. Neat.

This mod can help you disconnect buildings that affect tps such as turrets when not used, so that they will not affect your tps anymore.

Can this mod actually affect TPS in any way?

on a side note, after a complete reinstall and putting OG switch right at the bottom of the mods list, it works, weird.

@ OganessonG yes have had the microelectronics done still nothing, ill uninstall everything and redo, see what happens.
