Power Grid - Warp Engines

Open alexanderson1993 opened this issue 2 years ago • 0 comments

Develop the necessary things to make the warp engines work. This will involve a bit of stuff:

  • [ ] We need to automatically create a battery for the warp engines to serve as the Warp Dynamo, with the option of having the engines run without the warp capacitor.
  • [x] We need to create an ECS system for modeling battery/capacitor charging and discharging.
  • [ ] We need to update the UI of the pilot screen to factor in activating the Warp Dynamo. Not sure what that's gonna look like yet, but it'll be something.
  • [ ] There are probably autopilot considerations to include here.
  • [ ] Limit the number of output connections from the warp dynamo to 1, so it can only be connected to a single power node.

This might be a monster, so it could be worth splitting it into multiple issues if deemed necessary.
