- Added power cores, a type of large battery cell that get used by exosuits. The nuclear and phoron variants are self-charging.
- Combat mechs now start with nuclear power cores, allowing them to sustain themselves indefinitely, so long as they stay out of the action for a bit.
- Removed basic power cells from the mechfab, replaced with the mech powercores.
- Mech cell statuses now instantly update as soon as the cell charges or discharges.
- Added a stack of 10 uranium to the machinist's workshop, which can print two nuclear power cores.

Unregister it on destroy
There was a problem hiding this comment.
as far as i'm aware, signals are already unregistered when any datum gets destroyed, so it shouldn't be necessary, unless i missed something?

Can they be recharged? |

Yes, these power cores can be put into a standard recharger, though the charge rate will be painfully slow due to the core's capacity relative to the recharger's output. I think it's a fair trade-off that, if you go through the effort of removing the core, that you can charge it (slowly). The power cores can also be charged by the stationary docking chargers, which is also fair, since you need to either go to the place where they're installed, or specifically construct one in the area you'll be working. |
