Ensure your generator is properly connected to the base systems, and consider adding switchable pylons to manage energy flow efficiently. Follow the steps below to keep your base powered and operational.

Verify Electrical Connections

Incorrect or incomplete wiring can disrupt power distribution. Ensure all components are connected as intended.

steps

  1. Access the build menu and locate your generator and pylons.
  2. Connect your generator to a central pylon using wires.
  3. Check that wires link the generator to the desired equipment or base sections properly.

Utilize Switchable Pylons for Efficiency

Switchable pylons are critical for managing energy flow efficiently during times of low demand. Build and configure these pylons to prioritize essential systems.

steps

  1. Use the build menu to add switchable pylons to your setup where needed.
  2. Connect critical systems to one pylon and less essential systems to another.
  3. Turn on only essential systems during idle periods to conserve energy.
