@Richex I probably commented before steam was done verifying the new mod version. Sorry for the confusion.

New Version 1.0.2
- Fixed info panel displaying incorrect power consumption

@Spesh Thanks for the report. Apparently one of the recent minor Rimworld updates broke the power consumption displayed. It still correctly draws 40 W but the info panel displays 200 W (you can check if you build a single recharger and a power generator. The power available displayed on the generator is it's own power minus 40 W for the charger).

I'll see if I can get the display fixed. The mod is still working in the meanwhile - your chargers will draw reduced power when on standby.

I removed all mods, just had this one enabled, made a new colony and used dev mode to make a small recharger. it still cost 200w to run with nothing using it

Doesn't work for me either, maybe something like Turn it on and Off - Repowered? I'll try and figure it out at some point

Hmm nothing I can see log. Might be an unknown incompatibility with one of the other mods. If you want, you could try to figure out which mod is causing it.

Steps for that would be: Start a new game with only vanilla, biotech and this mod enabled. Build a recharger (devmode is fine) and confirm that it only consumes 40 W while inactive. Save the game and enable a bunch of mods. Load the game and check the consumption. Repeat that until you found the bunch of mods that caused it. Then disable them again and add them one by one to find out exactly which mod is causing it.

Without knowing which mod causes it, chances are sadly pretty low for me to figure out what's happening.

The mod is not working for me :c Any idea what could be the problem here?
