Power Utility Tab

Description
Adds a tab that opens a window that allows you to look deeper in to the power situation of your colony.

It sorts the power information between 3 different types.
Base is the consistent static power use or output.
Cyclic is any power user or generator that waxes and wanes based on the day.
Volatile is any power user or generator that isn't consistent.

Brief Tab Summaries
Overview Tab
The overview tab has the basic of the colony power structure as well as a predictive graph that displays a theoretically averaged day for the colony for planning purposes. There are a lot of lines that can be plotted, to turn any line off you simply need to click the legend. A line that has no data will be automatically disabled.

Producer / Consumer Tabs
These will give you the breakdown of the power into it's three basic forms. The bar value are in comparison to the current total power/use.It also displays all buildings that are using or generating power by their type. If you click a type in this list it will cycle between the buildings in the group.

Battery Tab
Does the same thing as above and gives you information on how much battery power you have in terms of time. The timer beneath the bar is in real time, and the table below it is in colony days.

Planned Features
I will probably add historical graph into each section. Technically the building list are all scroll-able I just wanted to have plenty of room for a late game colony.

Mod Compatibility
- Vanilla Power Extended
- RT Solar Flare Shield

Any mod that uses custom logic for their power use, generation, or storage will have to have a patch made for it. I cannot test every mod in the workshop so please let me know if a mod isn't reporting its information correctly.

Final Words
I also want to thank everyone who's helped me along the way. There were times I was stuck or even felt unmotivated to continue working on this project, and the feedback I received was vital to publishing this.

Thank you Nonu for formatting the description for me!

would it be a pain to add sorting to the producers/consumers grids?

I thought it would because of how I'm referencing something, turns out I'm wrong. Removing the requirements.

Why does this need Anomaly and Odyssey?
