u forgot to connect the generator to the electric grid, i checked, it's not connected at all

Hello!

Wehre is the switch of the generator?

My personal problem is the battery charge. The generator indicator in theenterance shows generating +0 electric while the engines works. I connected the ship to the electric charger, and still nothing. The ship electric level 26 and I can't recharge the battery. :/

I know, right? They have the perfect feel for the mid-80s aesthetic i go for in most of my builds (I have this long and complex worldbuilding backstory thing for my creations that i might upload as a guide at some point). They float great too, and are lag free.
