Description
Rebalance power consumption based on when an object is in use.

Generally speaking, power consumers will use substantially reduced power when not in use, and substantively more power when in use. Power consumption will accordingly vary wildly based on usage, rather than the vanilla behaviour of simply how many worktables or doors you have.


Effected Buildings:

Electric Tailoring Bench (10W Idle, 500W Active)
Electric Smithy (10W Idle, 1000W Active)
Machining Table (10W Idle, 1400W Active)
Electric Stove (10W Idle, 1000W Active)
Electric Smelter (400W Idle, 4500W Active)
Refinery (10W Idle, 1800W Active)
Component Assembly Bench (10W Idle, 1800W Active)
Electric Crematorium (200W Idle, 750W Active)
Multi-Analyzer (10W Idle, 600W Active) (Active when an associated research table is in use)
Vitals Monitor (10W Idle, 1000W Active) (Active when the associated medical bed is in use)
HiTech Research Bench (100W Idle, 1000W Active)
AutoDoor (5W Idle, 500W Active) (Active when open, but not blocked or held)
Televisions (10W Idle, 400W Active) (Active when being watched)
Deep Drill (10W Idle, 500W Active)

Wooo hooo!!!!! tnx

Exactly what my 50ish colonists' colony needed! Thanks!

Does it support EPOE Hardcore benches? I don't know if the two that are there are the same compared to the normal EPOE.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but this mod also changes the power consumption to be quite significantly higher. Often four times higher. Is this adequately balanced with their idle consumption being pretty low? In any case this definitely makes batteries much more important.

This along the minimap is the thing that I most miss about CCL.

Thank you!

Wait, i noticed that too. If that's true, can you lower the active numbers??

What kind of impact does this have on performance?  Seems like it might be quite a bit extra strain computationally?

I suggest you try the mod as-is before you ask for the values changed. I think you'll find that even with higher active power drain you'll need to generate far less power than you normally need.

I don't think it would be much useful if you are not using batteries. I personally avoid them like a plague.

No, that's correct, this mod does substantively increase power consumption on machines when in use. It is generally adequately balanced, for smaller colonies in particular running off of a single solar panel and battery is much more plausible. When you get to larger colonies, ask yourself if more than 1/4th of workbenches are in use at any time, and you'll see it'll probably reduce the power consumption.

The only real 'Gotcha' with the numbers is since batteries are only 50% efficient (as in vanilla), power generation is ultimately doubled when running off charge, but that said with the lower idle costs you'll be saving a substantial amount of power at night.

Relatively minor, rather than adding new ticking comps to buildings, instead the mod caches everything like crazy.
It'll only check for new buildings to modify power on every few hours, when a building is placed or removed, or when the map is loaded.
From there, workbenches (being the bulk of the effected buildings) notify on use has been detoured (Thanks Hugslib) to track what is in use, where the other objects use the map's existing reservation list.
For televisions, a another detour is used to intercept whenever a pawn is watching a building, which saves expensive area searches or iteration.
In short, the mod doesn't do anything fancy with values that were not already nicely cached or exposed.

If your running without any batteries, yeah, that'd be the one situation where this mod probably isn't for you. Still, if you use fueled generators or geothermal, you'll get pretty good mileage? My personal playstyle is almost always large windfarms and battery banks for reliable power, and for folks who play with batteries this mod will generally decrease the amount of power generation you'll need overall.

When you just use fixed power output generators you don't need batteries, but then you don't need this mod too, you just build another generator.

It is only useful for people who use windturbines,solar panells, batteries, fuses and solar shielding ! :-)

I would find it very useful though, if the base consumption values of all the things remained the same, because i do have to turn off some stuff that i'm not using to save power.
Would you consider adding the core buildings into the xml file as well like you did with the EPOE ones?

Is there a way to auto-expand this mod to affect other mod buildings? For example, things that don't have a pre-defined idle/active power consumption default to 10W idle and 4x normal usage watts.

This is a tricky one. Not all worktables consume power, so if I search out all Building_Worktable's I wouldn't necessarily find them all, then the structural issue the way I modify the power level on a table hides the original power values, making it a tad trickier.

Again, if there are any mod benches/etc you'd like to see support on, it's pretty easy to have it look for other benches and I'd happily add other mod support if anyone has recommendations.

As i generally mod my modded rimworld for mods to work together what about searching for building_worktable that have electricity consumption value, if it does a function to replace the value with you own values?  I do coding too but not sure how much you can achieve here, i am on the web development area.

Basically if no power consumption def that n to  mod doesnt affect the table, also problem is balance too, not all worktables use equal values hand have to be fine tuned manually with logic behind it, hopefully this is something mod authors can add to their mods where if a player doesnt have this mod it can use a default value, but if this mod is detected then it uses different values set by the author?

7zip did the Trick :) Thanx

Here's my patch for Rah's Bionics and Surgery Expansion (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=28731.0), formerly known as EPOE Hardcore.
Thanks for the mod, great idea!

*edit*
So I had some time on my hands and did some more "patches" for the pack I'm using... For simplicity I uploaded them to Github here (https://github.com/ruyanve/Rimworld-RePower/tree/master). If anyone has any wishes what mods to support, let me know, I'm on a run ;-)
So far I added:
- Vegetable Garden
- Electric Stonecutting
- RBSE
- Deep Core Drill
- DTC Weapons

I've played my first serious colony with this mod and I've gotta say. I actually really enjoy this mod. It's such a simple thing but it's made power management more enjoyable.

I am not sure about the power consumption balancing, but I tried to make them fit with other workbenches and stuff.

Thanks for proving these files, i spotted one little flaw though. The Tiberium Research Bench is set as a <poweredWorkbench> when is should be <poweredReservable>.

@Texel Big thanks for bringing back my favorite CCL feature (assuming you actually got if from there). :)

Cool thanks!

I really like the mod.
I was tired to see my machines consuming power at night for nothing, had to use a Powerswitch and do some micromangement to save power, and micromangement is bad.

If have a suggestion though.
For making compatibility easier, why would not dynamically assign power consumption rate, based on how much they basically consume ?
Then you won't have to implement specific compatibility for every mod.

Also what do you think about applying such a rework with the nutrient paste dispenser ? It creates the same issue as other machines.
But I know It's a difficult case since it's an instant use, unlike work benches.

I have made a mod that allows to force the NPD to dispense meals.
But for balance purposes, it will draw a certain amount of power from network on every produced meals (15wd).

The other solution could be to make it "active" for a certain time after its last use. While active, it will consume more power.

Please let me know what do you think about this.

Many thanks.
A bit easier life at early and mid colony, while mature colonies start to consume a lot of power. Imho weapon and component benches consumption is too high.

It's all balanced around a "4x costs", so in theory, if your using more than 1/4th of the time, it's going to be costlier than vanilla. The vast majority of crafting station's aren't used like that, but you may be right, making a single component will drain out a whole battery and this may be too much. What would be more reasonable? (Given how late game component making is, is it really too crippling?)

At my last game 2x component benches works from early morning to late evening a lot of days in row. Need a hundreds components to make some weapons, implants and, finally, ship to 20 mans colony.  ::) Not sure about others, but im rarely build a big solar/wind arrays if i have a 3 geothermals near, like in this game.

So, about running cost - lowering to 3x would be nice. :)

PS Also, light edition without increased running cost nice too. All this dances around switching unnecessary equipment only for power saving. So no point at increasing running cost. You can do zero power cost at unused equipment and standard power cost at used, just manually. But noone want to do such amounts of micromanagement and peoples come here to look for reasonable ways of resolving this problem. (without ruining balance)

Absolutely.
Even with only those two mods loaded plus HugsList. The games closes, no message, no restart just crash.
I have the latest version of both.

Well thats odd then im running with 117 mods enabled currently and i never saw such crash. But best luck then fixing it.

I'm pretty new to this, but how hard would it be to mod something like the improvised turret to take more energy while firing as apposed to just scanning for targets. If this mod had that functionality I would be all over it.

Texel, attached are the .xml files that add support for the workbenches of the following Mods (All are balanced around 3x cost):

Mending (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=22894.0):
- Mending Table
- Recycle Table

Remote Explosives (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=17285.0):
- Explosives Workbench
- I left Remote Detonation Control out of Repower because, even if it's accessed as a workbench, its use is puntual and thus the requirement of manually depowering it if you want to save power makes a lot of sense as a kind of "pre-arming" sequence... Such as you have to do IRL when dealing with ANY kind of remote triggering of live explosives.


If any of you want to start using them ASAP, without waiting for Texel authorization/incorporation/tweaking... Just drop them into the "Defs" folder of this mod.

I do to .. no problems .. I have between 120-150 active mods.
In my mod-order the allow tool is before the repower mod.

For some reason I can't get the zip file to extract. I suppose that probably isn't your fault but I was excited to use the mod. I've never had this issue I use 7zip.

I think a dynamic version, that's 50% power of all items which require power while in use, and 150% power when in use, would still be balanced, and mod-friendly.

The mod is great and very useful for me.
But I need some help when I add a def xml to support the Lockable Doors mod. The lockable autodoor is always idle, never become active. Is there any solution?

i'm messing around adding some other things to work with repower, and had a question to make sure i understand and do it properly. For things like turrets and SAL Autocrafters, which don't have someone interact, and aren't workbenches, do i simply just make both poweredWorkbench and poweredReservable to false since they're neither. I'm not sure if it requires one of them to be true to function properly, or if thats a legit option. Would that even work and have repower function with them having an idle power with the low power i'm setting and use the high power when they actually go active?

There isn't really a logic for which to determine when a turret is "idle" that I could determine, nor do I know enough about how SAL autocrafters work :(
If you set both to false, it'll just override that objects power usage to the idle at all times. Sorry about that.

Thank You, i will try it at this week. Still have to wait couple mods to updated before i can start a new game.
Its so annoying to click power off every time when they stop using devices and i dont want to spam batteries etc.

How do you open/use the .patch file?

Not spamming, just really want this mod. Also If any modders can say what updating this mod would entail, I could attempt to do it myself (as long as it is just correcting vars and stuff not writing new code)

Can you post the update version? I want to use it :D

I got it compiled too and on first glance it seems to be working.

For those who don't know what to do:
Basically the .patch file from this (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?topic=30734.msg336861#msg336861) post by fmauNeko needs to be applied to the source code files of this mod via git apply. (git apply didn't really want to work for me this time so I just did it manually with some Notepad++ magic)
You can open the .patch in a text editor of your choice and it just tells you what lines to change where. Basically '-' means line deleted '+' means added. '@@'-lines give you which lines and the ones without '-' or '+' are just for reference.

Once you've changed that you only have to

• Have .NET-Framework installed
• Copy UnityEngine.dll, Assembly-CSharp.dll, HugsLib.dll, 0Harmony.dll to the Source folder of this mod (you can find the first two in "RimWorld\RimWorldWin_Data\Managed" and the last two in the HugsLib mod).
• Start a command prompt in the Source folder of this mod and run this command from the command prompt

c:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\csc.exe /t:library /out:RePower.dll /r:0Harmony.dll,Assembly-CSharp.dll,HugsLib.dll,UnityEngine.dll RePowerDef.cs RePower.cs

to compile.

Now copy the created RePower.dll to the Assemblies folder and the mod to the Mods folder of Rimworld.

Edit 1: Minor typos

If it is still working without problems, how about sharing a little ?
:-)

drakulux, I've tried your dll but without success:

Looks like it tries to use HugsLib from A16, but I use its last A17 version of course.

I am quite hesitant to upload this because I basicly did none of the work, but I guess for the sake of getting this mod to the none-techies, I will leave this here.
Remember that the actual work was done by the mod author Texel (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=27281) and fmauNeko (https://ludeon.com/forums/index.php?action=profile;u=76208) by writing the patch.
If any of you two wants this gone, I will of course immediately comply.

And the techies that aren't using Windows (seriously why do Windows programmers keep using .NET instead of mono?), thanks.

Well, .NET is the native way to go for Windows. But .NET-Core is like the official version of Mono and supposed to become the standard, so this should get better soon.

Well, there are techies and there are techies.

Thank you be_cracked

Texel and fmauNeko included.

someone pls post the compiled mod for a17

THANKS A LOT TO be_cracked!!
Now I don't have to worry about flicking all of my benches when not in use! I set them all to 0 zero idle power consumption and base game power consumption when working, I can have autoflickable benches instead power rebalancing!
Of course also thanks to the author, for releasing his code, very appreciated indeed!.

You should all be turning off your electric appliances when not in use IRL!

But without you i wouldn't have been able to compile it, so thanks to you too xD

I'm glad you managed to compile it yourself. It's always good to have more people understand this stuff^^

And I just want to make sure it does not look like I want to steal anybodies credit, because such stuff is really low.

While testing another mod i bumped into this:
StatRequest for null thing.
Followed immediately by:

When one of my pawns was using a horseshoe pin. Is it trying to check if it has current? xD

I don't know if it could happen in the original unmodified mod though.

so anyone likely was able t oconvert this from a16 to a17?? care to share pls!! lol

Yeap.

That happened, the Forum Server was running low on storage, so Ludeon deleted some older Attachments ..
This mod is not the only one that suffered.

Let me check my Notes ... there it is

I downloaded RePower A17 On the Yandex disk https://yadi.sk/d/qNSY_hM43NNAxz

Is there any chance a wizard could update this again, or make their own version?  It's pretty great.

I agree. Sadly I do not have the time right now to do it.

mmmm this implementation looks awful registerSpecialPowerTrader/registerWorkTable hardcoded is no good.

I'll see if I can pull out the HardcoreSK implementation.

This mod should be baseline in main game. I only power on my electric stove (IRL) when I need otherwise it doesn't consume power at all.

Got this bug while playing, had your mod named.

-snip-

I am an error log scrub, and really don't know what I'm looking at. But by glancing over that, it appears to me it has something to do with the pawn having trouble viewing the horseshoes game and/or interacting with this viewing experience. For my own sake, could you please show me how this is related to this mod?

at RePower.JobDriver_WatchBuildingPostfix._WatchTickAction

so the RePower mod has a class file JobDriver_WatchBuildingPostfix that has a method WatchTickAction that is in the stack trace.   Since this is the only modification file mentioned in the stack trace and the fact this does not occur in vanilla without the mod, troubleshooting reasoning points to that method in this mod being the problem.

This is the fix for JobDriver_WatchBuildingPostfix error. Since the source code wasn't available, I had to decompile the dll file, make changes, and compile it.

The source of the problem is the duplicated code in the mod's postfix methods. This resulted in the same code effectively being executed twice which caused NullReferenceException under certain circumstances and prevent pawns from watching TVs.

Replace RePower.dll file in the mod's assembly folder with the one below.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/n2tn3t4nos74txl/RePower.dll?dl=0 (https://www.dropbox.com/s/n2tn3t4nos74txl/RePower.dll?dl=0)

I wanted to add support for More Vanilla Turrets. Took a look at the example file provided, and it seemed pretty straightforward, however, it doesn't seem to work directly for turrets. I'm guessing since they are unmanned, the game has no way to know when they are in use or not in use. Are there any extra settings not shown in the example file that I can use to make this work?

1.0 pls

Unofficial Update for B19:
Steam Workshop (https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1503118650)

Note:
Will remove upon request by original modder.

Will the b19 unofficial work okay with 1.0?
