PowerSwitch

Description
This mod adds additional functions to the vanilla power switch.

Here you have various research topics available, which will improve the functionality of the switch.
You can research the upgrade for a motion detector, an enemy detector and for a timer.


Note: Mod settings are available.


Description:

- Pawn Detection in Room: Available after research with the normal switch.
Detects if a Pawn (human, animal) is in the room

- Pawn Detection within 7 squares: Available after research.
Normal pawn detection mode for wall switches.
Normal switches can be switched between this mode and the pawn in room mode by repeatedly pressing the selection button.

- Enemy detection (within 1/2 of the map): Available after research.
Available modes: Switch on when detected and switch off when detected.

- Timer: Switches on and off at specified times.
Time is initially set to 6h->On and 20h->Off. This can be changed by pressing the buttons repeatedly



NOTE:
This mod can savely be added to a running savegame, but to use the functionality you have to destroy and rebuild (by debug mode or the normal way) the switches you already have, as the old ones don't have the needed references.

Is there a mod that adds a "one-way" cable? Something like a Diode... It allows electricity one way, but not the other... Could be used to make a "Backup power supply".

Is there a way to have Enemy Detection detect hostile animals?

This mod is great! May I ask you for make a wall mounted interruptor? I know the mod "wall stuff" have one, but it is not compatible

That is an issue of the power switch: If it switches a wokbench off, this workbench will be ignored by the pawns.

When using motion detection, do workbenches without power prevent pawns from working on active bills? Or will pawns ignore that the workbench isn't powered and go to the workbench, activating the power?

Is there a way to put the switch with the motion detection inside a wall, facing a particular room? This would clean tings up and get rid of switches put randomly inside a room

You can add it all the time. It just will not apply to already built switches,but new ones should work.
