A high-capacity late-game energy storage solution for Factorio 2.0 (Space Age). This mod introduces a massive 3x3 flywheel accumulator designed to handle the extreme power demands of interstellar factories.

Features

• Massive Capacity: Stores up to 10 Gigajoules (GJ) of energy.
• High Power Flow: Supports 100 Megawatts (MW) of input and output power.
• Full Circuit Support: Seamlessly integrate with your power management systems.
• Configurable Energy Decay: Simulates real-world mechanical friction and air resistance (self-discharge).

Energy Decay Mechanic

To reflect the physical reality of flywheel storage, KESS units experience a gradual loss of energy over time (Internal Leak).

• Default Rate: 0.5% of total capacity lost per hour.
• Shadow Drain: Implemented using a high-performance "shadow proxy" system that ensures perfectly smooth power graphs and zero UPS impact.
• Configurable: Both the feature toggle and the decay rate can be adjusted in the Startup Mod Settings.

Research

Unlocked via the Kinetic Energy Storage System technology, which requires:
- Electric Energy Distribution 2
- Electric Engine
- Carbon Fiber
