Better Fidget Cells

@Cartographer101 I can confirm after medium-serious testing that fidget cells do recharge while socketed into ulnar stimulators being worn by the player.

In my testing wearing an active pair of ulnar stimulators while walking around charged at exactly 1 per round as the stimulators drain 1 per round and fidget cells recharge 2 energy per round.

Some potential ideas:
High levels of quickness / movespeed? Unsure how this works but it might cause the gloves to drain at higher than 2 / turn
Boot up sequence? Some gadgets drain more than their base drain when booting up. A fidget cell starting at 0 charge will be locked in a cycle of eternally starting up if this is the case.
Mod interaction? Check for any other mods overriding the fidget cell in XML. I will clean up the XML in this mod to reduce this likelihood next time I update it.

@Cartographer101 It should work on everything, in my testing it worked on exoskeletons for example. I can re-test it this weekend

Does this work on armor as well? It doesn't seem to be recharging when installed on my ulnar stimulators gloves.

yes, I just changed the rules in XML so it should be evergreen

Is this working for 1.0?

The vanilla behavior is rather illogical, so thanks for this mod.

The game is much more durable than it used to be so I am unsure if you NEED to restart your run to update/add this mod. That said it is ALWAYS a good idea to make all changes to your mod list BEFORE you start a run as many modded things get baked into saves and can cause issues if they are added or removed.

I just updated the mod to ensure it works with the new update, the mod doesn't require any scripting anymore so it should be more stable regarding updates and work on both the beta and stable game. Please let me know if you get any errors or strange behavior.

In my fresh game it works at the moment, do mods not work in a running save? Should I have restarted? Sorry if thats the case..

Thanks for the heads up. This one should be an easy fix so it'll be updated to the beta within the next few days.

This mod does not work for me (using UI-beta). The cells do only recharge in the arm slots, inserted in equipped items (tested with weapons and gloves) they don't
