no way, I found the elderly vanometric generator

Remember this was made for 1.0. Different versions may have bugs. Or just not work.

Why is it consuming 5000 power instead of producing 5000 power?

@Mlie, thank you so much for the update

Made an update of this for RimWorld 1.1
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2013172430
Hope it helps anyone!

hasnt been seen since the summer. well thats another mod i enjoyed that broken and will not get fixed unless someone takes over it.

Hey awesome mod ! Will you update it to 1.1?

Anyone tried to contact the author/creater for this mod? I had just started playing with mods and found this one. Now its broken lol.

1.1?

Hope 1.1 :D

Great Mod Thanks

Compability 1.1?

Its randy random :-)

finally got a power ship with a power cell. looks like it's a very rare event

Did you add it to a running savegame? that might be one explanation

never managed to get even one power cell through incidents. had to buy them all through traders. any idea what could be wrong?

Awesome mod , thanks for making it.

Okay i looked into that, i dont see a reason why the mod should be conflicting. Do you have an older version maybe? Any error logs? If you need help you are invited to join us on Discord. Thats the place to go :-)

thank you ^ ^

Hey megabot. Thanks for the report. Will investigate whats going on. Greetings.

ummm...sorry but...i have a little problem. your mod seems to conflict with "bricks don't vanish", because when this mod is active, the changes caused by that mod do not work any longer

Reporting to Dr. Jack Bright, Asteroid Base Alpha TK-1 here, Operator. We just discovered this strange energetic core of a mechanoid mothership on a nearby planet. We don't know how it came or stranded there, but some tribes found out and are treating it now as the "Eye of Apocalypse" of their Goddess MonoMono Akbi. We need a special operation ground team here, to rescue this ancient relic and research it any further.

The monstrous statue can be found on this coordinates: 43.63°N / 36.72°W (Seed: war crimes).

There is endless potential in the core, from what our planetary scans tell us, we need your brain here to investigate it any further tho. The intergalatic council wants you to be part of this dangerous mission.

Bring the Team.

You are free to do, what has to be done, once you landed.

Hi there...

I see you have an anomalous power source that was recently stolen from a foundation site...

MTF E-11 has been dispatched to your location to detain you and resecure the item. Amnestics will be distributed via Text Link.

-Dr. Jack Bright, Level-5 Researcher, Site- REDACTED

I think I may need to start a new map? That might be whats going on.

Well, it worked out for me on all of my runs, in a very balanced way. Approved and confirmed, i asked around in the community, too. Please let us know, if it gets any better for you.

I have no mods for incidents other than tradeships. Nothing modifing raids until recently which changes the strength of infestations.

makes these things more useful then an actual pest now

Do you have many incident mods installed? That might cause the problem for you

Yeah I have have not used more crashed ship parts. I am playing on Randy/Rough and also have no mods that change mechanoid ships or ship chunks. I've also tried placing it higher up on my mod list to no luck yet.

**Update: Quest Rewards added

**Update: Exotic Traders have Power Cells now on rare occasions.

You dont need the tech to obtain Power Cells. The incident must happen. Do you have More Crashed Ship Parts installed? This should increase your chances. You can use EdB Prepare Carefully, if you want to begin with some of the Power Cells. Feedback is welcome, will do some testruns for you and see if i can adjust it further.

So... It's been like 4 years in game with numerous mechanoid raids and I just am not seeing a power core even once. I have the techs researched?

Hello Tarojun! Oh, lemme check this really quick and thanks for pointing that out.

**Hotfix: Problem solved. Alpha Animals (Skysteel) & co are compatible now. This wasnt supposed to be still in there. You can restart steam and get the update :-)

I ended up with a config error involving some of my items to have no HP but flammable, meaning it can burn infinitely. Digging around, I found this mod to be the cause of the issue. You made a needless overwrite of a vanilla core abstract "ResourceBase", adding flammability, which some of my modded items take it's abstract from and gained that attribute.

Removing your overwriten base, and then putting <Flammability>1.0</Flammability> inside the <statBases> of your MPC_MechanoidPCell will solve and form the same item, and not mess with other items that run off the core abstracts.

**Update: Power Outcome and Market Value can be conveniently adjusted in the Menu Settings under Options.

Thank you Kikohi for all your genius work and everyone else too, who was involved in it. Automatik, your wisdom was highly appreciated and Evaine should you ever read this, thanks for an always open door for me. You're a sunshine :-)

Mechanoid Power Source should be finalized now

**Update: Anyone wants to betatest a new turret?

@Techmago: We did a lot of rebalancing, as the mod was new. Should be allright now.
@Black*Rock Shooter: Try to discover all its neat features. Settings menu will be added in the future

Hey this mod was pretty old...
And vanilla has the vanometric power cell now.
Shouldnt you rebalance basing in the vanometric output?

I was going to say def some more details high heat =? but adjustable power level is good and possibly a secondary adjustable 'difficulty' higher difficulty = higher cost but set power level. So people can feel accomplished for something so powerful. If you can get mod menus going that is ^^

Thank you kfish & Sam for the support ツ

**Update: Adds 2 more possible chances on Mechanoid Power Cells, when you have More Crashed Ship Parts installed.

I had an idea how to raise the chance a bit for MORE and FASTER power, even early on in the game. For whoever wants to obtain more of these babies, just follow this Link:

If you have both mods active, all powered shipwrecks will give something special as an extra.

@Darastrix: Indeed, this power supply is capable of holding a village even in the Antarctic. But pssshhh, don't tell anybody ^_^

How much heat does it output? The same as a geyser? because if so it might be amazing for cold colonies.

Thank you so much, cell990 <3

All because of Skullywag. Happy that i dug it out

A simple yet effective mod. Exactly the type I like.

**Update: 5000W reactor enabled. Adjusted market value to 2k :-)

Thank you for feedback, relanscarlet.

I'll change its power to 4000W , when i'm done with betatesting forsakens. Another request like yours in the meantime and we have a 5000W power supply with the next update. Hope that will satisfy your needs ^_^

I'm trying myself on a settings menu for RimWorld atm, where people can choose how much power it should give. That will hopefully solve all this problems for the future.

Oh, and no need to let it immune to solar flares.
Since all structures that use power are shutdown during the solar flares.
There is no mean to add solar flare resistance on it.

I think this power source is a little bit under power.
It's high cost, produce heat, high market value (which can raise raid size).
But output is only 3000...guess I'll use solar panel pair with wind turbine instead.
The biggest advantage is its small size (3x3) and can place anywhere (if you handle heat producing) and stable (like geothermal and vanometrics).
But its advantage is still not good enough to cover its disadvantage.
Maybe slightly raise its power output or lower its cost and market value, it might be great.

The reason for the lower than geo power output in the orginal mod by me was simply that yes there are 4-5 geothermals on a map but they are in fixed positions and sometimes cannot be defended well, you would have to leave your base sometimes (which is a good thing for gameplay), these things you can shove in a room in your mountain base and never have to defend, thats the reason the heat output was bumped up so you had to at least maintain them with coolers somehow, the plan was to eventually make them go ustable if they get to hot, i just never got round to it. But Trunken is right after a year ingame you can gather a number of these and its free energy. I ususally create multiple power networks with the most valuable being on an enclosed system using these or vanometrics.

Shipwrecks happen with or without this mod. This just adds an item as an extra event, to give you something to benefit from these incidents. Even the material can be obtained from the case. Don't forget: All your energy sources need protection and should be placed wisely.
