Hello! I've created a mod that enables power switches to be configured to be on or off depending on the current in-game time.

Thanks to Dingo and avilmask testing, suggestions, and XML help

Very cool.

[Dingo]

Good to see it finally released!

[kaptain_kavern]

Simple and yet was lacking.
Brilliant

Thanks for this one

Nice idea, looks cool. One question: does this modify the vanilla switch or add a separate time based power switch?

The reason I ask is there are a couple of mods which modify the vanilla switch and AFAIK they aren't compatible with each other because they weren't implemented as new buildings or whatever switches are and if this mod does the same it's going to be incompatible with them too which would be a shame.

[merthsoft]

This adds a new building entirely, so it should be compatible with the other mods

Glad everyone likes it!

there was alrady a mod that did this and more aka senseingg eneimis and if a person in the room but think it got abandoned 2 alpha ago.

there is haplo's power switch mod, that has timers, pawn in roon, pawn nearby and enemies in 90 tiles fnctions, and it IS a15 released

[Serenity]

The interface here is better though. And in Haplo's mod you need two researches to get to timers. That's not to say it's bad. I guess it's personal preference, but if all you want is timed switches, it's bit awkward.

[Dingo]

I personally intend to use both when I'm done fussing about and actually play. I think merth was talking about trying to integrate it into Haplo's mod which would also be great (just replace the timing function there with this one).

[123nick]

could you make this switch a seperate object? many mods already modify the default switch. it may cause even more incompatabilities.

[Dingo]

It's not the default switch.

[merthsoft]

It is currently a separate object. It would be cool if it could also be added into Haplo's mod, so people who want to whole shebang just need one mod, but people who just one the time-of-day stuff could use this one.
