B42.8 has the option extend generators in the sandbox settings, but as of 6/1 it was still not functioning vanilla.

The new B42 build already does this now. This mod is obsolete. Thank you for making it!!

Might not be needed anymore with 42.8

"Added GeneratorTileRange & GeneratorVerticalPower sandbox options to support generator use in tall and deep buildings."

Is it possible to increase generator radius??

so ive already updated, am i good to patch without loosing my generator?

@Rob: It's not the mod that removes the generators, but the latest update of the game. With each game update, upon launch, it creates a backup of your save.

I need to use this but the other comments scare me, finding a generator was hard enough i do not want to go find another

ohh no! lost the generators! why!???please fix the mod, whitout manual INSTALLATION!!!,

@Marlonskiy its not a mod problem what you lost the generators. Its a PZ update problem! I do not use this MOD but with the patch i lost all my gernerators in the chunk.

@Marlonskiy: Did you relaunch the game in 42.6.0 before the mod update? Several players reported issues with 42.6.0 that reset objects and changes in bases within a chunk.

I had lost two of my generators on my map's hoiuse, when i entered in game after mod update... Therefore they was placed on layer zero, on terrain

The base file for having energy across all layers of the game is available.The files regarding the generator's radius increase are not yet updated.

Note that the latest update overwrites and modifies the IsoGenerator.class file. I will provide the update with the changes ASAP.

@エレクト: Thank you for the feedback; I will check if there have been any changes since the last game update.

This mod will cause the car dashboard and minimap to disappear, please fix it by the mod author

I'll probably never make use of this mod, but it's nice to know I have the option now.
Very clear instructions.

I've conducted several tests. 200x200 is too intense for the game, causing significant lag due to high calculations. For 120x120, there are still minor freezes when loading a chunk, even with the generator off, as the code checks for power. I doubled it to 40x40 with no freeze, but I can't power the entire March Ridge bunker for example.

Additionally, I noticed that some objects may not function correctly when the generator is out of the player's coverage area, although they still consume energy. I need to investigate the player's coverage area in the code.

For reference, my setup is i5-13600K + 32.0G RAM + RTX 4070. The best compromise I've found is 60x60.

I've added multiple versions in the mod for you to choose from.

Caution: Make a backup of your save before patching to a large generator. You never know! I haven't encountered any bugs apart from lag, but the game doesn't seem optimized for such heavy calculations.

Enjoy!

@MadInsanity: Alright, I will add a 200x200 version to the mod. I'll do it today; it should be quick to complete.

I would like that range but for 200x200 so i can better use it for larger bunkers

@Flexible Games: I didn't notice the mistake, I've just corrected it! Thank you for your vigilance 🙂

Small typo in description on step 3 that might throw some people who can't problem solve or think critically.

@Only Farms: Yes, that's possible, but your generator might run out of fuel quickly if it's powering multiple devices. I can create an additional file in the mod to increase the default radius of 20. Currently, the only way to increase this radius is by installing multiple generators. Would you still like me to extend it to 2000x2000 ?

Can you make it 2000x2000 square of coverage?

do we need to manually install again after latest game update?

Thanks for the Mode

I love how TiS patched the issue with basements and such, and yet Raixxar the Madlad updated their mod so the generators work on ALL layers. I love it.

thanks for your work Raixxar

@All: The patch is now updated to 0.3.0 and fixes the generators for bunkers and skyscrapers.

o7

thank you for your service

@Sadist: You are right! I haven't tested for the bunkers. In the code, I only saw it on 3 layers above an below. For the moment, the file is no longer compatible with the latest version, so you may encounter errors or crashes. The new file uses new functions. I will check and test for the bunkers as soon as possible and propose a patched file.

Generators do work in the basements, but are limited on the negative Z axis as the positive one (3 floors).
This makes it impossible to keep the generator working if your base is in a bunker.
Keep the mod up until they add functionality to the power bar. It's useless at the moment.

If you update your game to the latest version, the file is automatically replaced with the Steam update.

Do I need to restore this to original files? Or does it do it automatically?

@all : I just checked the game file, and it’s now fixed. This patch is no longer needed. Thank you all for your comments and feedback.

Yup, thank you still for making it, it shall now go to the workshop graveyard. Thank you for your service

Game updated. Mod no longer needed (unless they borked it)

no I did not I am sub 10 iq

does this work for skyscrapers because genny doesn't seem to work on top floors

great mod！！！

Спасибо тебе Большое! Счастья Здоровья Удачи и Всяческого блогополучия))))))))
