Multiple Generators

All frozen food thaws instantly
I'm excited to give this mod a whirl for the first time. I have four generators set up at my base, all connected and fueled up.

In my last session, the power went out. I walked outside and turned the generators on, and when I went back inside to check the freezers, everything was cold as if it were in a refrigerator, but nothing was frozen, and the freezing process was just starting. Somehow everything lost its "frozen" attribute in the 10 game minutes it took me to go out and turn the generators on.

I don't have many other mods running (Common Sense, Container Borders, Become Desensitized), but I've played with all these other mods before and the frozen food just started thawing at a normal rate when the power went out.

Anyone else notice this, or am I missing something?

just happened to me before I installed the mod. I think is the way it works when electricity shuts off

I started a new playthrough without the mod installed and started the generator up within about 20 seconds (real time) and the frozen food was still frozen, although starting to thaw.

When I had the mod installed, it probably took me closer to 40 seconds (real time) to get the generator started, so I can't rule out that it might have just been the elapsed time. But, the food in the freezer wasn't even cold, it was completely thawed in that time.

I know from experience of waiting for food to thaw before I can use it that 20 seconds of real time isn't enough to fully thaw frozen food in my inventory.

I'm using the default game time.
