the last should be easy to solve, prevent to hapens until 7 days, also should change vanilla settings to prevent less than 7 days. i will check the scheduling, i didnt notice cose im not sit watching tv normally, for me mybe its better
Joy Tomaro  [author] 27 Jan, 2024 @ 4:16pm 
it doesnt work in multiplayer and it messes with tv and radio scheduling in single player
aquelarrefox 27 Jan, 2024 @ 7:49am 
which bug?
Joy Tomaro  [author] 25 Jan, 2024 @ 10:34pm 
the mod works, but it still has the bugs many people have reported. i have not touched the mod in a long time but i would like to try to improve it one day (not in the near future)

it does not work in multiplayer according to many users, and it seems to mess with tv and radio scheduling.

thank you to everyone who uses and enjoys this mod! if someone can make something that works without the mentioned bugs im sure the community will appreciate it

Also just played recently and the mod still seems to be working. Probably just the author has decided not to maintain it anymore.
SkullEmoji 13 Jan, 2024 @ 3:45pm 
I had enjoyed several playthroughs using your mod. It mixes up the early game and gives a sense of realism instead of power just being on all the time until the shutoff.

Thank you

what i see from the code should be posible to cut the water during the blackout too

explodingcows546 29 Nov, 2023 @ 11:46am

Orbit 25 Nov, 2023 @ 11:37am

Thank you for the reply and the effort put into this.

blackouts mod turns off the global power grid so off grid power still works. havent tested it with that mod but i assume it wouldnt affect solar power
Kenpa 28 Oct, 2023 @ 6:53pm 
Will the blackouts kill all the ice cream and corn I'm hoarding... even with say battery power from the solar mod? This looks great btw, so maybe fuck my frozen treats if that's the case.

@Joy thanks for this! Just popping a comment on here to say that I am having zero problems with this in single player, and I LOVE it.
Joy Tomaro  [author] 10 Oct, 2023 @ 4:11pm 
Hi everyone! Thanks for using my mod(s)!

My mods have not been updated in several months and I currently have no plans to update any of them. Feel free to study this mod or use the same concepts to make something more functional.
maxpirk 9 Oct, 2023 @ 2:07pm 
This mod wont even show up in the mod list.
maxpirk 9 Oct, 2023 @ 1:41pm 
This does not work in single player. This mod is bullshit.
Trombonaught 24 Sep, 2023 @ 10:12pm 
@Leon, no, it doesn't work in MP lol. I just noticed this myself when I (the host) was the only one suffering in blackouts haha
leon 17 Sep, 2023 @ 8:01am 
someone makes this mp compatible
leon 17 Sep, 2023 @ 7:16am 
i use it on mp and only hear the reactor sound but nothing happens
leon 17 Sep, 2023 @ 7:16am 
so you cant use it on mp?
Shoeshin 15 Sep, 2023 @ 4:51am 
Can you configure to when you want it to activate and for how long?
Desert Fox 12 Sep, 2023 @ 5:14am 
This mod is awesome experienced my first black out the other day playing!!!!
Cмoльный™ 10 Aug, 2023 @ 4:12pm 
Where i can configure this? i dont see any options in sandbox
XiaZia 9 Aug, 2023 @ 3:49pm 
On our dedicated server- it keeps playing the noise too turn the power back on every now and then, but it doesn't turn it on.. : ( anyways, love the mod!
800813 5 Aug, 2023 @ 8:59am 
I really hope you'll get to sync on multiplayer one day...
This mod is pretty fun, combined with other mods makes it alot better

When can I MP:steamhappy:This MOD is good
Nihi ^.^ 18 Jul, 2023 @ 7:25am 
When the power permanently shuts down. The mod tries to turn on power again and making the "return power sound" play on repeat in random
im in a coma 15 Jul, 2023 @ 7:52pm 
it works in multiplayer it just isnt synced and tvs dont turn on
Joy Tomaro  [author] 14 Jul, 2023 @ 9:34pm 
thanks Xeto, i havent tested it but it was just based on some reports i saw. glad it works for some tho
Xeto 'Vuzamai 14 Jul, 2023 @ 8:30pm 
The description says Single-Player Only, but the only issue I've seen on multiplayer is TV's can't turn back on once they've been turned off.
Sneaky Golem in the Pocket 14 Jul, 2023 @ 4:41pm 
Bro all tv´s in the map are bug i can´t turn on none
Orbit 9 Jul, 2023 @ 1:29pm

@John Wayne Guan
thanks for the report! can you put any other related details in the bug discussion thread and let me know if restarting fixed it
John Wayne Guan 4 Jul, 2023 @ 2:23am 
when the power permanently shutsdown, the power turning on sound keeps repeating and it doesnt stop
♋ Ziru J. Soulslayer 3 Jul, 2023 @ 12:45pm 
multiplayer version?
Corvus 1 Jul, 2023 @ 10:38am 
Got it, thanks!
Joy Tomaro  [author] 30 Jun, 2023 @ 10:13pm 
@Corvus im not currently updating any mods, but you can set the power shutoff date to 365, which i believe is the max with my mod, or try and see if this mod is compatible to changing the shutoff date https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2934556282

alternatively, you can use debug mode to set the power shutoff date to an unreachable number of days
Corvus 30 Jun, 2023 @ 8:28pm 
Hey, could you make it so that we're able to have power never fully go out (I.e. the only form of power shutoff is the temporary blackouts)?

@Diakon it is single-player only because i have had reports that it doesnt work on multiplayer except for the host. i think it is due to how the mod works, but im sure there is a way to make it work in multiplayer. i just have no way of testing it and i havent been playing the game for a long time.

@AmaDeusen this mod affects the entire map as it changes the power shutoff date and changes it back
AmaDeus 26 Jun, 2023 @ 9:00am 
Hello Tomaro. As I do not understand modding properly I wanted to ask you, if this mod affects map based on cells (so only some maps) or is it some general override and the WHOLE MAP even if you have mods etc. will go off
