Vehicle is Generator

Description
Wanna have an immersive road trip but cannot access stable power supply?

Tired of building a power generator every time you set up camp?

No more! There's already an alternator in your car, why not just use it as a generator!

Treat your vehicle as a portable generator

If vehicle is not ignited, you can use a new gizmo called "Toggle power" to turn it into a power generator. Working generator can directly consume fuel from vehicle's fuel tank, and once ignited, it'll automatically toggle off.

The fuel consumption rate and power generation are deduced from vehicle's general stat. If you're not satisfied with the value, you can also manual modify them via Vehicle Framework mod settings.

Enjoy your road trip!

Compatibility

Work with almost every refueable vehicle.

No known conflict.

Safe to add/remove, you may encounter some harmless error logs.

Will this work with the shuttles added by SOS2?

Oh I get it, 250W per fuel consumption, that's *slightly* more efficient than vanilla generator but not that much.

@WJSabey oh not that.
Assume if an engine fuel consumption is 8/d, then its fuel consumption as generator is 4/d, and power output is 1000W. Hope I express it correctly.

Wow, that's way more efficient than the vanilla chemfuel generator. It makes a little over 200W per fuel consumption, these things make 500W per fuel consumption.
Cedaro  [author] 28 Apr @ 6:40am 
@WJSabey yes, by default fuel consumption = engine fuel consumption / 2 , power generation = fuel consumption * 250 .

Great addition, I'd like to know what the auto settings does though, I guess it's scaled based on fuel burn but what are the multipliers?

Now the mod that LET'S us set up camp just needs to update.
