power sources

[mrofa]

Ability to have a <type> for power, so i could insted of power conduits have steam pipes that would conduit steam and the device`s would react to what type of power they get. So in example if i have a colony of blood worshiping canibals, i could make a special device that is powered by blood extracted from corpses, insted of batteries i would have blood buckets

Great idea!!
Would be really awesome to have that

Perfectly plausible? One dude in the tester section has a whole new power net up and running, so the same could easily be done for anything else.

So basically declaring a type for power sources, so we could have stuff like electrical, mechanical, mystical, stuff like that? I like. Even if this isn't used extensively in the main game, adding in a tag for this would let people make a ton of conversion mods and stuff. I can imagine a steampunk conversion mod where everything runs off of steam pipes and gears

There was here somwhere a suggestion about the voltage, i did like it thrugh it would complicte the game alot, still having ability to have a nuclear generator that produce a higher voltage like energy_type2 that could power up some heavier machinery or robots thay would be cool.
Now whers my internet cable...
