PPHC

Description
An advanced version of the PPC from Rimatomics, capable of storing more power.

The RA-P4 Pulsed Power Hypercapacitor, stores extremely large amounts of energy in a compressed bank of ultra capacitors, which can be discharged in a single pulse by compatible Rimatomics energy weapons.

In relation to the base PPC, the PPHC (Pulsed Power Hypercapacitor):

+ Has 10x the power capacity (60,000Wd vs 6,000Wd)
- Is twice as flammable (200% vs 100%)
- Takes twice as much work to build (20,000 [334] vs 10,000 [167])
- Costs 5 gold (PPC costs 0)
- Requires 4 advanced components
- Needs level 10 construction (PPC is 5)
- Requires research, which costs 10,000 silver.

Recommended use with RT Fuse and Fuse Plus, unless you want the real nuke to be ZZT events.

It also has 4x the mass, if you are using a minifying mod :)

Looking for Texture Artist
If someone wants to make a custom texture for this, I will put it in the mod, with your permission of course :)

dw about it, it was a good suggestion and I might end up using it in the future elsewhere.

*300 steel, not silver, and I messed up the mention too :P

Di_DD TY for the suggestion, I tried this and sadly it didn't work, but the research requirement has been implemented (see below).

@david.oravsky TY for this example, I should've just taken a look at the base Rimatomics research defs haha. The PPHC is now locked behind a 10k silver research requirement, to soften the cost I've reduced the steel requirement from 900 to 300 silver (same as PPC), although it requires 5 gold now (due to advanced circuitry and conductors).

Cheers :)

check out how this mod does it (1.3 > defs > rimatomicsdefs > researchdefs.xml) pretty sure that hasn't changed with 1.4

i'm not sure cuz i'm not a well-learnt coder myself but it should be easier to just use

<ThingDef ParentName=" find a PPC def name ">

witch means that it can only be obtainable if original PPC had been researched

I'm not sure is that a way to solve a problem

@illPosedProblem ty, I also have a 1.4 continuation of Fuse Plus at https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2881856442 if you'd like to save space on circuit breakers too :)

Great space saver. And I didn't know about Fuse Plus, thank you!
